Creative Services
At QMSC, our primary focus is on writing and editing, because every good communication piece begins with writing — regardless of its final form. Professional writing and editing adds focus, impact and style to your messages.
Our work overlaps into design and production services because the “look and feel” of a message is a vital part of the message as well.
Writing & Editing
- Expert writing and editing for print, web, presentations, scripts, speeches and interactive media.
- Specialists in long-form writing, audio-visual communications and writing for the spoken word.
- We do content editing to enhance focus, flow and impact of your communication pieces, including scripts (“script doctor” services.)
- We handle copyediting on selected documents.
Design & Production Assistance
- QMSC works closely with other creative professionals. We provide creative concepts, design and production oversight, and can subcontract for specific services such as video production..
- We build MS Power Point® presentations.
- We handle Print Design and Layout for selected projects, including large manuscripts (books).
- We do Web Design and Creation in Dreamweaver® for simple websites. We built the site you're viewing.
Strategic Consulting
Strategic consulting means different things to different people. To us, it means figuring out what to do, how to do it, and sometimes, whether to do it at all. We provide assistance with:
Strategic Planning
- We help you define your goal and project purpose, identify key messages, and plan your process.
- We provide creative concepts and identify production options.
- We help you analyze your audience, consider collateral materials, and integrate your project into your existing communications mix
- If requested, we oversee production.
Content Development
- We help you decide what information and data should be included, and develop key messages.
- We organize information into the most effective argument (strategy!).
- We provide creative concepts that help illustrate your ideas and give your project its own unique style.
Evaluation of Existing Messages
- We'll evaluate your existing communication pieces and provide written comments and recommendations.
Training and Coaching
- We provide custom presentations, workshops and individual coaching.
- Coaching can enhance presentation and public speaking skills to improve communication.
- Training in writing, editing or public speaking and presentations can expand staff skills and confidence, and improve your organization's image.
