How to Contribute

By Marc Lanzkowsky

Help make the claims community better and contribute your experience

We are always looking for new and exciting ways to look at claims and improve the process.  If you would like to submit an article for publication on The Claims SPOT, feel free to email marc@theclaimsspot.com for consideration.

What we look for:

  • Variety — Claims is such a broad term and covers so many aspects of claims and claims related entities. We encourage topics from all areas of the industry.
  • Any and Every Voice — We’re looking for contributors from all aspects of claims and from all claim related entities. Managing claims for a self insured- tell us about your challenges and successes
  • Well written Articles — Writing for the web is not writing a college textbook. Claims can sometimes be very dry – so be creative. For ways to write better for the blog audience, see this problogger post

What we’re not looking for

  • Post designed to sell a product or service — If you would like to advertise with us then please call us, but if you would like to write for us we are looking for articles designed to inform and enlighten the community.
  • Opinionated posts — Unless its related to an industry issue of importance, The Claims SPOT is not about strong opinions designed to incite disputes or arguments.

Preparing your content

If you have any questions as to whether or not your article will be deemed appropriate for our publication, don’t hesitate to drop an email to Marc at marc@theclaimsspot.com. We can’t promise that we will post every article that we get, but if you provide information that we feel is consistent with our message and designed to educate and inform the world of claims it will receive our fullest attention. Oh and please proofread your article prior to sending it.
