Contributor Guidelines
Contribute an Insight
We welcome thoughtful contributions from founders, operators, product people, and technical leaders. The bar is quality, relevance, and practical value.
Who this page is for
This page is for people who want to contribute a strong, useful article to MarqueFactory. We are interested in original insights that help startup teams, business operators, and decision-makers think more clearly about software, workflow design, delivery, and growth.
We are not building an open guest-post directory. The goal is quality, not publishing volume.
Topics we are open to
- Startup MVP planning and launch decisions
- Custom software vs off-the-shelf decision-making
- SaaS growth, product structure, and delivery lessons
- Workflow automation and internal systems
- Founder, operator, or technical leadership insights
- Case-based lessons from building or improving software products
- Clear, practical articles about process, systems thinking, or delivery quality
Topics we usually reject
- Thin SEO guest posts written mainly for backlinks
- Generic “top 10 tools” articles with little real value
- Low-quality AI-generated filler
- Promotional writeups for tools, products, or agencies
- Casino, crypto, essay-writing, gambling, or unrelated finance content
- Keyword-stuffed tutorials with no clear business relevance
- Link exchanges, paid link requests, or hidden promotional insertions
What good submissions usually have in common
- A clear point of view
- Real examples, reasoning, or practical lessons
- Strong structure and readable language
- Value for founders, operators, or business teams
- Minimal jargon and no filler paragraphs
- Something a reader could actually apply after reading
How to pitch an article
Before sending a full article, send a short pitch that includes:
- proposed title
- who the article is for
- 3 to 5 bullet points covering the main argument
- why the topic matters to MarqueFactory readers
- 1 or 2 links to your previous writing, if available
This helps us decide quickly whether the topic is a good fit before anyone spends time writing a full draft.
Editorial rules
- All submissions are reviewed manually.
- No paid placements, sponsored link insertions, or do-follow link deals.
- We may edit for clarity, structure, tone, and formatting.
- We may reject a draft even after a pitch is approved if quality is weak.
- We do not guarantee publication timelines.
- We may remove or adjust self-promotional links.
- We only publish content that matches the site and audience.
We may occasionally consider high-quality sponsored contributions when the topic is genuinely useful for our readers and the editorial fit is strong. Publication decisions still depend on quality, relevance, and transparency rather than payment alone.
How to submit
Use the contributor pitch form below and make the proposed article title specific. The best pitches are clear, practical, and obviously useful for founders, operators, or teams making software decisions.
A good proposed title usually follows the format Article Pitch: [Your Topic], for example:
- `Article pitch: Workflow automation lessons from a service business`
- `Article pitch: What founders misunderstand about MVP scope`
- `Article pitch: Why internal tools fail without process mapping`
Keep the pitch short and practical. We care more about the idea quality than a polished sales pitch.
