Built a comprehensive style guide covering grammar, formatting, and terminology standards
Documented governance model for maintaining brand consistency across a growing team
Established review and approval processes for content quality control
Content Systems Delivered

Content Templates: Reusable frameworks for key content types, including product descriptions, email communications, and marketing materials
Style Standards: Comprehensive style guide covering grammar, punctuation, terminology, and formatting conventions specific to the brand
Governance Framework: Documented processes for content review, approval, and quality maintenance as the organization grows
