Deliberate & Decisive Copywriting

A large part of Decide DeKalb’s rebranding was updating their web copy. Our Content team went through their site page by page to gain a comprehensive understanding of Decide DeKalb and their values. Our team then worked alongside theirs to update all the copy on their site and make it reflective of what DeKalb County offers and why potential residents should Decide DeKalb. In working together, we were able to ensure that information, tone, and style were all clear and concise.
