RESEARCH 1 UNDERSTAND THE BROADER & SHORTER PURPOSE Research starts with understanding the broader purpose of the enterprise you’re writing for, whether it is a technology based start - up, a healthcare service or a fortune 500 company. Analyse the depths of the organization by posing questions with 5Ws and 1H, for instance - What is it that they do? Why is it necessary or unique? Where can it make an impact? Which target audience is the organization looking for? When does the service solve the pain points (events)? How is it solving a problem? Generate more questions based on the particular content peice that you’re creating and see if it fits well for the shorter purpose and the broad purpose. With this information that you have, it will be easier to articulate.
