Sample Deliverables
What you receive when you hire Marcus
Five illustrative samples, one per service. Each shows the format, depth, and style of what a real deliverable looks like. Clients, data, and organizations are fictional.
Sleep Quality and Cardiovascular Risk After 40
Written for Meridian Health | Corporate wellness platform | Fictional client
Most adults over 40 think about heart health in terms of diet and exercise. Few think about it in terms of sleep. That is a mistake the research does not support.
A 2021 meta-analysis in the European Heart Journal followed sleep patterns across more than 1 million adults and found that both short sleep and poor sleep quality were independently associated with a measurably higher risk of coronary heart disease and stroke, even after adjusting for weight, activity level, and diet.
900-word article with two subheadings, a callout stat, and a closing paragraph. Written under the Marcus Clark MPH byline. This format is standard for blog content, member education pieces, and contributor articles.
Product Page Assessment: Magnesium Glycinate Supplement
Fictional supplement brand | Product page copy review
Two claims require revision before publication due to overstated or unsupported language, and one required regulatory qualifier is missing. The underlying ingredient has a reasonable evidence base. The current copy overstates it.
Flag 1: “Clinically proven to eliminate insomnia” — no cited study supports full elimination of insomnia. Available trials show modest improvement in subjective sleep quality in small samples, not resolution of a diagnosed sleep disorder.
Three-section PDF: executive summary, flagged items with corrected versions, and overall recommendation. Signed Marcus Clark MPH. This format applies to product copy, blog posts, member education materials, and social media health claims.
Ashwagandha: Research Brief
Standalone ingredient review | Supplement and ingredient research brief sample
Stress and cortisol: multiple randomized controlled trials show meaningful reductions in self-reported stress and serum cortisol over 8 weeks compared to placebo. Sleep: a 2021 systematic review found consistent, moderate improvement in sleep quality.
What the research does not support: Claims that ashwagandha meaningfully increases testosterone in the general population are not well supported. The studies showing hormonal effects were conducted in small, specific populations and do not generalize broadly.
Condensed excerpt from a 3-page brief covering what it is, what the research shows, what it does not support, and dosing and safety considerations. Full brief includes population-specific guidance, complete regulatory notes, and citations from peer-reviewed sources.
Program Evaluation: Executive Summary
Cornerstone Financial | 12-week corporate wellness program | Fictional organization
Low reach: only 28 percent of eligible employees engaged, concentrated in two departments with informal wellness champions. Measurement gap: Cornerstone collects biometric data but does not compare it to a baseline or review it in aggregate. There is currently no way to know whether the program is improving health outcomes or simply running.
Waste and Efficiency Note (DOWNTIME Lens): Non-utilized talent — department champions do informal promotion with no formal role or support. Waiting — screening results take 3 weeks to reach employees, reducing their relevance.
Condensed excerpt from a 2-page report. Full report includes complete findings, a process map, a Limitations section, and prioritized recommendations each noting who is affected, estimated cost, and success criteria. Lean Six Sigma DOWNTIME analysis included for applicable clients.
Your Movement and Wellness Assessment
Prepared for Jordan | Generally healthy adult returning to exercise | Fictional client
Two years off is a long time, but it is not a deficit you need to make up for all at once. What matters now is starting in a way you will actually keep doing, and your questions already point in the right direction.
Is walking enough to start? Yes, and it is more than enough. Given a desk job and two years of inactivity, walking is exactly the right entry point rather than a compromise. Start with 15 to 20 minutes, most days of the week, at a pace where you could hold a conversation but would rather not.
Written directly to Jordan, addressing all three specific questions submitted in the intake form. Conversational but authoritative. No generic advice. One follow-up round of clarifying questions is included with every assessment at no additional cost.
