Tell the story behind the work

Begin with the customer’s question

For a construction company or local service business, a finished-project photo is only the beginning. Consider what someone choosing a partner wants to know: what the project required, how decisions were made, and what working with your team was like.

Use a simple project outline

Describe the starting need, your team’s role, and the approach you took. Then explain the finished result in plain language. Keep each example specific to the work you actually performed and avoid turning one project into a promise about every future job.

Choose details you can share

Use photographs and project details with the appropriate permission. Give collaborators credit and leave private customer information out. A few well-chosen details can communicate your care and experience more clearly than a long list of general claims.

Connect the story to a conversation

Finish by telling the reader what kinds of work you are a good fit for and how to ask a question. The aim is to help the right customer recognize your approach and take a comfortable first step toward working with you.
