Buying high-quality business documents from an online service provider is a tough process. When you throw in something like a case study, it makes it even harder. Business case studies are more than just a write-up. A significant portion of their value is tied up in the research and analysis they provide. They’re more a presentation of fact than just an attractive arrangement of words.
When you hire someone to do a case study for your business you need to know what parts you’ll do yourself and what parts you want the service provider to do. Before you choose, you should know the parts that a case study is made of.
There are three parts to a case study. The first is research, where you gather data against the hypothesis you wish to test. Second, the data needs to be analyzed to determine if your hypothesis was correct and if there is any other meaning or significance behind your data set. Finally, the case study itself needs to communicate the information clearly.
Once you’ve made those decisions, you’re ready to select a case study seller.
How to choose the right case study writer for your business
Here are seven things to look for when choosing someone to help you with your case study:
-
Look for reviews or testimonials. Favor the ones who cite specific customer experiences and the customers with verified purchases.
-
Review what the seller is offering. If you want help, will the seller consult with you to ensure the right data is collected in appropriate amounts to produce an excellent case study?
-
Are samples available? If so, do they reflect what you expect?
-
Are you looking for someone to do the work for you, or to help you do it yourself? Both options are available. Make sure the seller is willing to do the research portion of the case study if you’d prefer to pass the whole effort on and just receive an end product.
-
Want a case study hundreds of other people or businesses also need? Hire someone with an existing case study in the area you need information. You benefit from their results without having to wait for the research itself to be completed.
-
Evaluate the cost. Does the company charge so much it would be best to do it yourself? Is the price so low you’d be silly to spend valuable time on the effort? The answer likely falls somewhere in the middle.
-
Be wary of signs of plagiarism. If you buy a custom case study online, it may show up in the plagiarism checker because it’s an established work bought and used by others. If you are hiring someone to write for you from scratch very few results, if anything, should come back in the report. Cited information with credit given to the author or website is appropriate. Quotes must have quotation marks around them. If the citation is not a quote, it should be re-written into the writer’s words.
Tips on working with your case study writer effectively
If the case study is a collaborative effort between you and the hired writer, keep in touch with your writer throughout the process. Additional research may need to be conducted to complete the analysis. Once the case study draft is complete, it may be necessary to add a section. Complex documents like case studies deliver the best results when there’s an open line of communication between the parties responsible for each stage of the work.
Did you hire someone to do it all for you? Sit back and relax. At some point, you may get a draft to look over. If you do, review it thoroughly and make sure the document meets your expectations. Do the same with the final submission. Most writers would rather have a text sent back for revision than to receive a bad rating. One key to getting top notch work is being willing to ask for adjustments when they’re necessary.
Takeaway
Follow these guidelines and research the service provider you plan to hire, and you’re unlikely to go wrong. There are a lot of different options available from a little help to having all of the work done for you. Think about what you want and be ready to work in close collaboration with the writer if you want to do part of the work yourself. Most importantly, enjoy the workload reduction. Focus on what you need to do (e.g. actually run your business) and let the final report come together on its own.
