Hi there! This guide is meant to serve as a quick start for writers who are receiving Content Harmony briefs and content grader URLs.
In many cases, content teams will have one person creating content briefs, and then delivering those briefs to a writer. This guide should work similarly whether you're a freelance writer, an agency writer, or a staff writer at the company you're writing for.
Here is the process most writers will use:
- Review the Content Brief for any requirements related to the content they need to write.
- Go off and write the content in their preferred tool, like Google Docs.
- Come back to the Content Grader periodically to actually grade the content.
Of course, you can write the entire piece of content inside of our content grader, too. But it's always a good idea to have a copy stored in Google Docs or another file since Content Harmony does not currently have the ability to track changes over time.
You can always go back to the Keyword Report section of the brief as well, however, most of the time this information has already been curated by the person creating the briefs. Nevertheless, we leave these URLs open to you to explore in case you want to see additional research, sources, and background data.
How to use Content Harmony's Content Briefs:
Content Harmony's Content Briefs are designed to work the same way as any other content brief you might encounter as a writer.
A good content brief should give the writer a list of requirements for the final content, but leave enough room for the writer to be creative and make the content work well for the reader as well as the brand.
