Industry Partner Content Marketing

Expert Profile article - £5,500 +VAT 

How it works

We interview a leading practitioner at your organisation to explore a topic, theme or objective. It's hosted on the STEP Journal as sponsored content, with promotion across our digital channels.

This is a great option if you want to reveal research, share a case study or demonstrate expertise on a popular trend.

The details

• We create a 600-800 word interview with a leading practitioner from your organisation covering an agreed topic or existing content piece; the interview will have a final review by STEP

• We handle all technical aspects from writing and design, to marketing and delivery.
• The content is hosted on a dedicated page on the STEP Journal and promoted through emails, Industry News Digests and social media.
• Limited to one Expert Profile per issue*, ensuring your article receives unique exposure
• We require a minimum lead time of three weeks.
• You'll receive a stats report (views) once the campaign is complete.
• The article can be used by the sponsoring organisation across your own media channels once published on the STEP Journal.

*As this is an exclusive content slot in each issue of STEP Journal, your copy must be approved by the specified deadline; we cannot move the booking to an alternative issue and you will be charged for the booking accordingly.
