Step-by-step process to ensure that marketing claims are accurate:

Before Starting a Campaign, Learn About the Products:
In highly technical industries, it's crucial to get product managers and engineers to brief you on the product details. Use these interviews with product experts to create a comprehensive briefing sheet for reference within your organization. This briefing sheet should serve as a "source of truth" for advertising claims and be continuously fact-checked by everyone involved. Creating this briefing helps writers on the marketing team communicate effectively, as they need to understand the information to put it in their own words, and the briefing sheets can also be repurposed as marketing content.
Build the Campaign with Long-Term Considerations:
When creating your campaign, focus on developing a strategy that supports long-term goals and sustainability rather than just immediate results.
Seek Feedback from External Reviewers:
Get input from people outside of the campaign, whether they are other members of the marketing team or from other departments. This external perspective helps refine the nuances of the message, making it more effective and clear to your audience.
Find a Knowledgeable Fact-Checker:
Identify a fact-checker who thoroughly understands the product, possibly an engineer, to ensure the marketing claims are technically accurate and clearly conveyed. This step ensures that all claims are valid and aligned with the product’s capabilities.
