  • Considering submitting a story
    for IBJ’s 2016 Business Profiles?

    • Write your own story

      This is your opportunity to tell the story of your business
      or service in your own words. After all, who knows about
      your experience better than you? When writing your
      own story, please adhere to the following guidelines:

      Story Length and Format:

      • Your story must be 500 words in length, and it
        must
           
        be submitted in digital format.

    • Verification of your claim

      If you tell us you are the No. 1 distributor in
      America, the only authorized dealer for a particular
      manufacturer or some other such claim, we need you
      to back it up. You must send an independent written
      verification of that claim along with the manuscript or
      we will have to take the claim out of the story.

    • We will write your story for you

      You may prefer us to arrange for the writing. We
      can have a professional freelance writer contact
      and interview you for the story.

    You will have the chance to review the final version.
