WRITE TO EXPRESS, NOT IMPRESS!
If you’re in business, you need to know how to write for today’s audience.
We help business people communicate warmly and professionally to achieve better results.
Are your emails being ignored? Can you put thoughts and ideas into clear, concise words? Have you lost sales or credibility due to poor communication?
Our speciality is the written word.
For over 20 years, we’ve worked with individuals, organisations and government departments across a variety of sectors. We show business people how to shift their communication style and techniques to better engage with their audiences. We introduce them to the general principles that cut across all document types and communication channels. We bring them up to speed with common traps and trends of modern writing. We offer feedback, guidance and support as they find their way. And because every client’s industry and need is different, we tailor each intervention to suit their specific demands and deadlines.

Cups of Coffee
Renowned investor and one of the world’s wealthiest men, Warren Buffett, suggests that business writers would be more human if they wrote with a specific person in mind:
When writing our annual report, I pretend that I am talking to my sisters. I have no trouble picturing them. Though highly intelligent, they are not experts in accounting or finance. They will understand plain English. Jargon may puzzle them. My goal is simply to give them the information I would wish them to supply me if our positions were reversed.
No siblings to write to? Borrow mine: Just begin with “Dear Doris and Bertie”.
