Professional Business Writing
One-day seminar

Would you like your business writing to be polished, persuasive and professional? You'll learn skills that will transform your writing and help you write documents and proposals.

In business, you need written communication that is clear, concise and conveys all relevant information. After this one-day seminar, you'll know the stress-free way to write winning business reports. If you don't learn the right rules, you risk making mistakes, losing credibility or damaging your company's reputation.

Your writing will be more polished because you'll learn skills that you'll have forever and can apply to any job.

This practical seminar covers:

  • business writing - the golden rules
  • how to structure reports and proposals
  • the fundamentals of persuasive writing
  • tips and rules for stress-free writing
  • how to gain the reader's attention
  • the 8 step plan to write winning proposals
  • the words you should never use

The aim of the seminar is to make your job of writing business documents - including reports and proposals - easier by equipping you with the right tools and rules. This seminar is ideal for professionals like salespeople, accountants, engineers, marketers and anyone who wants a guideline on how to write well in the workplace.

This seminar is presented by Mel Wilkinson, an experienced corporate writer and former guest lecturer at the Financial Services Institute of Australia. Mel runs a corporate writing agency and specialises in writing, editing and proofreading corporate collateral such as tender documents, annual reports, brochures, website content, newsletters, newspaper editorial, advertising copy, adviser and employee communication and sector reports.
