Manual Writers International
About Us
Established in 1987, Manual Writers International is an award-winning, full-service independent publishing consultancy. We specialise in advising multi-nationals, SMEs and Not for Profit organisations on how best to develop and publish their Operational Manuals to impose and replicate uniformity and conformity across a developing franchise, licence or branch Network. We operate within a wide range of sectors and our clients operate many different systems - including retail, B2B, job, management and social enterprise franchise and licence opportunities.
Our Expertise & Experience
Our expertise, which encompasses more than 35 years’ experience as sub-editor, copywriter, Editor-in Chief and Managing Editor in trade, technical and specialist sectors, includes:
- Leading and assisting small teams of contributors - usually functional heads of departments - to capture Know-How, processes and procedures thereby protecting their Intellectual Property (IP)
- Developing Content Frameworks to underpin legal requirements and minimum operating standards
- Projecting an organisation’s USP, Management Style and Values – ie. how we do business around here.
- Designing and matching Content to the type of Target Audience – eg. Corporate Franchise Partner, Managing Director, man with a van
- Ensuring Compliance and Consistency
- Transferring Project Management and associated skills; and
- Developing a format and presentation appropriate to the Target Audience.
Workshops & Appraisals
We also:
- Deliver bespoke Workshops to help those considering franchising their businesses, and anyone new to franchising, understand the necessity for a generic professional Operational Manual, how it differs from a general procedures manual, how to develop Content - and how to adapt it for overseas markets, as required.
- Provide an Appraisal, Feedback & Recommendation Service for companies who need to amend, modify or upgrade their current manuals.
Manual Writers International has been a British Franchise Association Affiliate Member and Professional Advisor since 1991 and is also a Gold Member of the Federation of Small Businesses.
