Glad to hear the advice resonated, @VKjkd! Let me know how it goes when you try out the strategy! 🤗

I feel this is the sort of thing that, once you see it you can never unsee. All my future readers thank you (as do I)

Ha ha yeah, that’s a great point. Once we know the slow intro isn’t helpful, we’re pretty much done with that habit. 😅

Great comment, thanks!

Thank you so much for preparing useful videos. Could you please share your prespective about word choice in professional writing? How do email writers consider word choice? How do your clients develop word choice for writing?

Thanks for your question. Sometimes, email writers can choose their words by thinking about their reader. This video shows quickly how thinking of our reader can help us make writing choices: kzread.infoDM3dUTLAycE Also, for professional writing, we usually find less theory and more practical information. So, writers would use more practical words vs more theoretical words. For example: - More academic: As past societies have often found, implementing changes in an economic system can require decades of analysis and application. - More professional: Just like in the past, today's societies face obstacles when adapting their economic systems.

Funny beginning 🤣. I can't wait to go write and implement your teachings. 🙏🏽

Just rewatched this vid. Does this method apply outside business writing...say, creative writing?

Great videos! So how do we rewrite the example given "This is to inform..to complete tour file"? Thanks

Thank you! And thanks for your question. Here are a couple good options for that revision, each bringing the reader's focus to something/someone specific: - We need [Document B] to complete your file. (focuses on our needs) - Please submit [Document B] to complete your file. (focuses on their action) - Your file needs X and Y to be up-to-date. (focuses on the task at hand-the file) It's basically a combo of leading with Who+What, to make the writing concise, and then choosing who/what to spotlight. Here's a recent video on that idea of spotlighting btw! :) kzread.info/dash/bejne/eINqw6-QndfcabQ.html

Thank you! I am learning to write articles, and this was super helpful. I love how you demonstrated this.

Thank you so much.
