We Have To Stop Meeting Like This
This goes out to all of you who have sat through a mind numbing Powerpoint presentation for hours including travel time and the hotel coffee shop lunch buffet. “We have to stop meeting like this” sends an urgent plea out to management to infuse your meetings with powerful information designed to insight, motivate, inspire, and energize. You must also come to grips with the fact that some people are hardwired to write the best material and make the best presentation, and it may NOT be YOU. Park the ego at the door and enlist the best person for the job, that in itself can motivate the troops to commit to continuous improvement.

Obviously this is a form of government taxation that if included in the fare would make it less attractive to the potential flyer. Your airline ticket now resembles your phone bill with it’s array of “after the facts tax”.

5 Tips for Writing Quick-Read Copy

They skim. They glance. But if you’re betting they’ll wade through long paragraphs of narrative copy, it’s time to adjust your expectations. Your copywriting must be clear, compelling, and to the point. These days, the best copy is served a-la-carte, allowing readers to sample one message here, taste another message there. Which leads us to the most important rule in writing copy that sells: Make it “digestible.” Rely on headlines, subheads, captions, and bullet points – short snippets of copy with key nuggets of messaging. Long blocks of copy tend to overwhelm readers. They snooze, you lose.
