You're Not Alone

Every project and every client is truly different. But, for the most part, you’re probably not as different as you think. You don’t have enough time or resources. You’re not prepared for the present, let alone the future. You don’t use technology to your advantage, and you have too little control over too much content.

Corporate mergers rarely plan for consolidating content and creating a consistent voice. New content management systems are often purchased without considering content requirements or workflow. Content is written by different people in different departments in different ways. And then there’s compliance.

It’s why we’re here.

Leadership Team

Melissa and Kathy founded Content Strategy Incorporated in 2013 to bring together the right mix of skill-sets and experience to solve complex content problems, from vision to execution. We carefully assess each project and client, and assign the right team and resources to get outstanding results.

We’re committed to growing the content strategy community and actively mentor and train upcoming talent.
