Ann Wylie Presents Writing That Sells in Connecticut
A world-renowned writing coach travels to Connecticut to share her tips
on how to think like a reader, make your copy more creative, cut through the
clutter and rev up readership.

Writing That Sells
Are your messages actually being read? Americans are bombarded with more
than 5,000 messages a day - more than a million pieces of information a
year. They toss most of that material without even looking at it. So the
question is: How do you ensure that your content makes the cut? Learn
useful tactics that will help you develop distinctive content that
reaches and appeals to your target audience. Ann Wylie will show you how
to put your public relations and communications copy among the fraction
your "reader" actually reads.

Specifically, you'll learn how to:

• Think like a reader. Put yourself in your audience members'
  heads so you can make your copy valuable, interesting and relevant.
• Make your copy more creative. Steal techniques from fiction
  writers to make your nonfiction writing more dramatic and compelling.
• Cut through the clutter. Master a seven-step system for making
  every piece you write easier to read and understand.
• Rev up readership. Draw people into your copy, make your copy
  more accessible - even reach readers who won't read.
