7 Rules for Writing a Case Study

By: Sagefrog

Every business should have at least one case study.  Case studies act as evidence-based content that can both work as original material for your media kit, as well as provide customer insight.  Follow these rules to ensure your case study hits the mark:

  1. Present them as success stories— write about the success of the customer, not your business
  2. Align the case study with the buying process— turn your sales collateral into content
  3. Always use a customer name— not “anonymous”- it creates better credibility
  4. Research the customer more deeply— really do your homework and make sure you’re educated on the industry and company you’re talking about
  5. Have an interview — use direct quotes from the customer
  6. Write it!— Now that you have your content, it’s time to write it out. Be sure to include: an intro, the “challenge” (always in a positive light), the solution, and the benefits.
  7. Use it— share it on all social media platforms, put it on your website, email it, turn it into a press release, and include it in your media kit
