Business letter writing
Despite the prevalence of email, letters are still a vital communication channel between some organisations and their customers. Make sure yours aren't simply wasting paper.
Overview
Despite the prevalence of email, letters can still be a vital communication channel between an organisation and its customers.
There are many types of business letters, from short acknowledgements to applications for finance. What unites them all is that there’s a human reading every one. This means your team’s letters should be both clear and written in an appropriate tone.
In this professional letter-writing course, we’ll teach your team how to write letters that get the right message across.
Outcomes
On this course, attendees will learn how to:
- identify the reader and directly address their needs
- keep the reader’s interest
- write convincingly and persuasively
- explain technical subjects to non-technical readers
- remove jargon and buzzwords
- construct crystal-clear sentences
- select the right words and expressions
- choose the correct tone and voice
- write formally and informally
- use compelling beginnings and endings
- use appropriate presentation, format and layout for any letter
- be confident in their grammar and punctuation
- apply their letter-writing skills to emails
- use the correct etiquette in both letters and emails.
A key feature of this course is that all attendees receive our unique pre-course writing analysis. This covers 15 different areas of writing skills and helps us ensure the training meets attendees’ precise writing needs, while allowing for rapid, targeted improvements.
