See part 1 on the original white paper<\/a>.<\/p>\n See\u00a0part 2 on repurposing that\u00a0as\u00a0a press release<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n <\/a>A set of blog posts can work well with\u00a0a white paper, as the two forms complement one another nicely.<\/strong><\/p>\n For example, blog posts are a shorter and more informal way to\u00a0publish ideas than a white paper. They’re basically here today, gone tomorrow.<\/p>\n A\u00a0blog can be where a company tries out ideas and gets quick feedback.\u00a0But once an idea is fully baked, the company\u00a0can present it in a white paper where it will stand for a much longer time.<\/p>\n The first post based on our sample\u00a0white paper was done by the client. The company founder\u00a0extracted it from the original text, and I think he did a good job.<\/p>\n Click the thumbnail or here to see that post<\/a>.<\/p>\n At the bottom,\u00a0you can see the call to action in blue: asking readers to\u00a0download the full white paper.<\/p>\n Next, my partner Angie Gallop created three more posts for this article. Each\u00a0took less than two hours.<\/p>\n We figure that means a copywriter can turn\u00a0a white paper into multiple blog posts in less than a day. We didn’t even present these to the client; we created\u00a0these strictly for research purposes.<\/p>\n You can click on a thumbnail below to see each\u00a0post.<\/p>\nCreating the blog posts<\/h3>\n
