A growing platform for how they are doing that is through the  white paper.    The use of the white paper represents a shift back from short form "conversations" with prospects and other constituencies to long form heavily researched analysis of issues or detailed presentation of new developments. A white paper, of course, requires an investment of resources, including the ghostwriting services of communications experts such as myself.

More requests are coming for those gravitas white papers and case studies. Cool will always be cool in consumer products companies, the entertainment business, and among youth. But, in so many other parts of business and life, cool is becoming lots less cool. The stronger economy facilitates making money, perhaps lots of it. In most lines of work, cool isn't necessary for that. Moreover, it could be a liability. Currently, business folks prefer the old-line buttoned-down.

  A white paper by a startup in tech could begin boastful and perhaps self-referential.  On the other hand, a white paper by an established brandname tech company like IBM would start out focusing on how useful this is to the readers. For instance, if Facebook just announced an acquisition related to the content of your white paper, you might need to put that in the first paragraph.  Starting out written material was always difficult.
