Business writing basics
I wish I had better news, but what you learned at university is NOT good business writing. What is? Well it's called plain language. It's research based, it's everywhere, and it's GREAT for your career.
1 - Where's your baseline?
2 - How plain language engenders trust
3 - How plain language stands up in court
4 - No, your readers don't want you to write like that! (The fallacy of the Sophisticated Reader)
5 - But what about everything I learned at university? Problems with the academic voice
6 - But what's WRONG with the academic (and formal) voice?
7 - Plain Language saves time and money
