Influence your audience
Employees’ writing is the face of your business. From social media to customer service emails, it’s the main way people see and interact with you. But does your business’s writing do it justice? Or could ineffective communication be losing you opportunities?
This online business writing training course helps you make a great impression on your audience, whether that’s current clients, prospective customers, or other stakeholders. It means employees can present the best of your brand every time they write. As well as building trust with clear, correct communication, they’ll learn to define their objectives and meet them by influencing others through their writing. It’s simple – better writing brings better business performance.
Be more productive
When people are at their desks, they’re normally reading or writing. Research shows that, on average, skilled professionals spend a third of their work time on emails. That’s not to mention the other types of writing that take up a large chunk of the working day, from presentations to monthly reports. When you’re paying people to write, it’s important they do it well.
The cost of poor writing in the workplace is high. Not only do you lose out on the strong working relationships that come with good communication, but you’ll waste time through misunderstandings and inefficient exchanges of information.
Things run more smoothly with clear communication. By the end of the training, employees will be able to share the most relevant information in a way recipients can act on… meaning things happen more quickly in your organisation.
Who it’s for
This course is for anyone who writes at work, whatever stage they’ve reached in their career and whatever industry they’re in. Even those in senior roles and with lots of commercial experience will learn plenty; in fact, those with most responsibility have more to gain.

Testimonials
Working in marketing, writing persuasively to both customers and internal stakeholders is very important. The course has given me the knowledge to produce clear, impactful and powerful communications. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to improve their writing skills in the workplace.
Natalie Davies, marketing communications manager
The course has really helped refine my approach to written communication. In particular, it’s taught me to be concise as elaborate writing isn’t always effective. The information was easy to understand, and the videos and commentary were clear and well delivered. This simplified a tricky subject matter, and I think that professionals at any level would benefit from taking the course.
