Turning security research into pipeline

A cybersecurity firm's engineers were sitting on findings nobody outside the company had read. We edited them into a series the board now asks about.

Sentinel's engineers wrote excellent internal research and terrible public posts. The gap between the two was the whole opportunity.

The idea

An editor, not a writer. Tomasz sat with the engineers every fortnight, took the findings and turned them into a monthly research note with a single argument, a chart and a name on it.

What we did

Sixteen research notes over sixteen months, each with a companion newsletter issue and a short cut for LinkedIn, plus a reporting line in HubSpot so every note's assisted pipeline was visible.

Outcome

Content-attributed pipeline went from £40k to £310k, closed-won and open. Two of the notes were cited in trade press without anyone asking.
