These days we’re subjected to more communication than at any other point in history. From letters and emails, to tweets and texts, we are greeted by a seemingly endless stream of messages during every waking (and indeed sleeping) hour. 

How, then, can we possibly hope to ensure our own messages are seen by those we seek to inform, persuade and motivate? 

By sharing some of the key principles of effective writing and learning from journalists, advertisers and salespeople amongst others, we hope to provide you with the platform to achieve exactly that.
