If You Have Something to Say – A Call for Editorials

Published: April 27, 2015

ATLANTA – In the world of editorial writing, the usual suspects are rounded up for a reason. They have opinions, and in some cases it is their job to have opinions.

As the humble editor of Medtrade Monday, I am grateful for their countless contributions over the last three-plus years. I will continue to haunt these kind advocates who have come to expect the e-mail request for an editorial with a half-hour turnaround. No problem, right?

If you have never submitted an editorial to good ol’ Medtrade Monday, and you have strong opinions to share about the industry, I invite you to send an editorial. I’m looking for actual HME providers (imagine that) who have a cause, an opinion, or even a bit of inspiration to share.

Submissions should be 250 words minimum and 750 words maximum, and should include a photo of your smiling face with at least a 25 KB resolution. I can’t guarantee your editorial will appear, but I can guarantee it will have a wee bit of editing for readability.

Want the latest Medtrade and industry news conveniently delivered to your inbox once a week? Subscribe to Medtrade Monday for stories and insights you won’t see anywhere else!

If the prospect of sharing your opinions with thousands of readers is appealing, send your written piece via e-mail to [email protected].  If you lose that e-mail, you can always find it at the medtrade.com Web site (under press service center), a comprehensive repository of info relating to the Oct 26-29, 2015, Medtrade show in Atlanta.  I hope to see you there.

Greg Thompson is the editor of Medtrade Monday and director of Media Relations for Medtrade.
