PRICING

As an indicative costing, the production of an article for an industry magazine with an extension of 2,000 words requires the following systematic approach:

(1) Searching at least 10 authoritative sources in the subject (including scientific and industry sources).

(2) Analysing the information sourced with scientific rigour and critical thinking

(3) Designing the document to present relevant sections, figure, tables and key messages.

(4) Editing and read-proofing the final version.

The final version is delivered electronically in a Word format or plain text. The figures and tables can be attached in a separate file or merged in the document, according to your instructions. In this scenario, the cost is $0.5/word (or $1,000.00 for the entire article). Costs may vary depending on the extension of the document required and the breadth and depth of the subject.
