Thank You. |

Whether you're in Management, Marketing,
Manufacturing, Operations, Finance... you need documentation.
Yet, as I said before, we've found that many managers are not getting what they want from their technical and business documentation projects -- and they experience a whole range of frustrations that never get relieved! |
Many managers don't get what they want because their subordinates are swamped with other work or the people they depend on to deliver documentation often deliver excuses instead!
Meanwhile, they feel the PRESSURES of deadlines, ever-increasing costs, and embarrassing delays.
Use our service to eliminate those worries. We will deliver what you want ON TIME -- to give you peace of mind and better control. (See Client Comments to the right.)
We've been successful on scores of technical documentation projects in dozens of companies.
Thus, we provide special documentation skills probably not available in-house.
We help you focus POWER where you need it.
Our service keeps you in the driver's seat. The RESULTS make YOU look GOOD -- which means you can grow even faster.
Let's face it. With today's massive array of desktop publishing tools, everyone is going tool-crazy! ("When all you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail!")
Are the tools more important than the RESULTS you want?
You still need people that can communicate effectively with customers, programmers, engineers, marketers, and management! That's our specialty!
Actually, most people tell me they don't like (hate) writing technical documentation.
They simply don't have the TIME to research, write, illustrate, edit, and publish professional work.
So, they AVOID writing until the last minute...
... and produce a hasty compromise.
Our service is practical and convenient. You get professionally written documentation ON TIME. So, you avoid writer's cramp.
You save time, struggle, and money.
We research, write, and publish business and technical documentation such as:

Our streamlined documentation techniques have worked for many high-tech companies.
They will work for you too!
Documentation projects can vary from one-page product bulletins, to multi-page reports, to 1000-page manuals. Here are some basic services common to most projects:
Our many Silicon Valley clients appreciate our proven experience with computer systems (since 1961).
Both. (For 9 years, I was a software engineer in real-time and multiprogramming environments. )
For the next 7 years, I served as Software Design Manager, Applications Analyst, and later, District Sales Manager for a Computer Manufacturer.
I bring proven technical, managing, and marketing experience to bring to your project.
So, call us when you want computer oriented documentation.
We'll help you develop your design specifications, sales manuals, user and operator guides, tutorials, and operating system documentation. You name it!
Yes. Our methodical research methods assure you of complete and accurate technical documentation. We use:
Lower Prices.
You don't pay inflated prices to cover fancy agency or "account executives." You avoid rising employee costs.
You only pay for what you use. We've slashed expensive frills and needless overhead. We get the job done at a lower price -- without compromising quality.
Faster Results.
We've streamlined our documentation techniques on over 300 projects in Silicon Valley. So, you benefit from techniques proven in other companies.
We've eliminated time wasters. We focus attention directly on YOUR project from start to finish. You get fast results - not excuses and delays.
Personal Service.
You will enjoy personal service from a highly qualified, motivated expert.
You will hear no agency double-talk. You will receive no CYA memos. No matter the cost in agony or overtime -- we deliver.
You want to know more, of course. And you should.
You're not buying so many words and sentences like a bushel of grapes. You are buying the skill, knowledge and intuition of other people. You want to know the people -- before you work with them.
So, let's set an appointment now to discuss your technical documentation needs.
We'll formulate your project in detail. The first step is Project Definition.
Together we'll write down WHAT you want, HOW you want it, WHEN you want it. Then, we'll discuss various creative approaches before we begin your project.
When we can be of assistance to you, please contact us at:
