Letter Writing Support

As a result of advancements in technology fewer people write letters now than in the past. We send short emails, text messages and scribbled notes which result in many people losing their ability to compose a letter. This is a vital skill in customer-facing business areas but an increasing number of people struggle to deliver a simple and concise communication. If this is a problem you face, Everything Write can assist you in three ways:

• designing a bank of brand-aligned, customer-friendly standard letters where the bulk of the text is pre-set and users simply insert variable information particular to the client. These letters can be used for regular communications to clients.
• developing and/or proofreading communications that are to be used in bulk mailings.
• providing tailored training sessions covering the fundamentals of English language and how to construct a meaningful letter. (Everything Write can either develop the course for delivery by one of your in-house trainers or conduct the training delivery for you.)
