What is the OPIS White Paper Program?
This exciting, new program offers you the opportunity to reach thousands of proven buyers and decision-makers in the energy industry.  White papers are official-looking research papers that position your company as the solution to critical issues facing the energy industry.  White papers work because they educate readers rather than giving the appearance of advertising.

How can you use the OPIS White Paper Program to your advantage?

-- Product Launches
White Papers can play a valuable role in launching a new product. In the early stages of your sales effort, they are especially effective in explaining a new technology or service to your prospects who are searching for ways to solve the problem your product addresses.

-- Industry Leadership
Certain types of White Papers also provide an excellent platform to demonstrate your company’s position as a thought leader in energy industry. These White Papers take a forward-looking, big-picture approach, providing your analysis of important issues and vision for addressing them (and perhaps preparing the industry for a future product or service under development by your company).

-- Competitive Advantage
Whatever service or product your company provides to oil jobbers, wholesalers and oil company executives, the White Paper strategy positions you as a better solution than any of your competitors. White Papers make a convincing, credible market case for your product in a format that is engaging and helpful. And the best part is –- the customer has actually asked to read your White Paper, a powerful indicator of interest. Talk about a qualified lead! You could speak to a packed house at a convention or stand in an exhibit booth for three days and never get the kind of active response that a White Paper delivers.
