• Folktale — Your numbers show activity. Your funders want the human stories behind them. Folktale helps you discover, gather and understand what is missing.
• Writally — Writally helps organizations and businesses transform their knowledge workers’ expertise into high-quality, thought-leading marketing content, in half the time and at less cost to the business.Companies need thought-leading, compelling content that stands out in this age of information overload and to do that effectively, they need to empowerknowledge workers to create this content. The problem is, it takes a long time to create quality marketing content such as blog posts, emails, podcasts, and social media posts. The average marketer, who is over-stretched already due to increasing demand for content, spends between 3 to 6 hours creating a quality blog post (not including expert interviews), & for knowledge workers who aren’t used to creating customer-facing content, it can take even longer. If a knowledge worker spent just 6 hours a week creating content, that would be $12k a year per employee cost to the company (based on a $80K a year salary).Writally solves this problem by providing knowledge workers with content recipes. A recipe is a structural framework customized by purpose, style and voice.All the writer has to do is fill in a simple online questionnaire on our app, and a blog post recipe that is specifically tailored to their needs is created and delivered to their dashboard. Writers no longer have to think about how to write a blog post. It’s all laid out for them. They just write their content and follow the recipe step-by-step.
