Business Writing Affects Your Bottom Line

Writing effective business emails affects everything from customer service to sales, and morale within the office. A well-written email could make the difference between a happy customer and a disgruntled patron. Excellent business writing will increase confidence in your employees and staff.

Business writing involves knowing your target audience, the goal of your message, and its purpose. Along with defining your audience, message, and objective, it’s equally important to use proper grammar and writing techniques. Writing a sales proposal for a prospective client and a memo outlining office behavior require two very different sets of skills.

Business Writing courses at NYIM will help your staff prepare for all types of situations.

You must still develop your ideas, express them clearly, and persuade others of their viability.
