What makes Whitepapers one of the most promising marketing tools

Share |

White paper is one of the effective ways of sharing knowledge, experience, and opinion with the society; where information-hungry people are waiting for that. A whitepaper needn't be lengthy. A reader shouldn't regret opening a whitepaper and should be satisfied with the information. White paper is also a vital tool for marketers to gain trust of their prospects.

Different types of whitepapers

General WP

This is a usual one. You write an introductory text about a problem/issue, explain the cause and consequences, and provide a solution.

Neutral WP

This is particularly good if you are writing a WP to promote a product. Company may object for revealing the negative aspect of their product, but as a WP writer you have to make them understand that this will bring the reader more close to their product as you are not faking. For example, if a beauty cream doesn't suit to a particular skin-type that doesn't mean it is not suitable for other skin-type as well. Thus, there is no harm in admitting that. In fact, this way you are assuring that it suits to the other skin-types. Thus reader will feel confident about it.

Comparative WP

This is good for those service providers who have 2-3 different services to offer for the same problem. This is well accepted by the service provider as your single white paper will promote all of the services. Thus, a good brand building and more trusted customers.
