What we’ve been working on and thinking about.

If you want really professional, buttoned-up content, you not only need to engage your readers with clear, clean prose and pay extra-close attention to sentence structure; you also need to have a rigorous fact-checking process in place. Nothing will derail great content and a solid strategy faster than a misspelled name, erroneous date, or embarrassing typo. Those kinds of careless errors suggest that your company doesn’t pay close enough attention to detail, which tends to make a poor impression on prospective partners, clients, and employees. That’s where fact checking comes in. After all your content is decided upon and every single person has weighed in on the draft you’re going to press with, you should do a round of fact checking. At Thinkso, we use a fact-checking checklist on everything we write. Feel free to download our checklist and use it in your own office.
