The Business Writing Course

Your success in business depends on your ability to communicate.

Want to get ahead in your career? Learn to write well.

If you can’t write clearly, you won’t get hired. And if can’t write clearly, you won’t last long enough in a position to be considered for promotion. If you want to get ahead in your career, you must learn to write well.

Welcome to The Business Writing Course. I’m your instructor, Alan Sharpe. I teach business people around the world how to write clearly, concisely and convincingly. I landed my first paying writing assignment in 1987, and I taught my first business writing workshop in 1989. Since then, I’ve helped hundreds of individuals advance their careers by improving their business writing. Now I’d like to help you.

The Business Writing Course is divided into four modules:

• Module one is an introduction to the world of business writing

• Module two teaches you the first step in business writing—how to organize your thoughts

• Module three teaches you the second step in business writing—writing your first draft

• Module four teaches you the third and final step in business writing—editing your first draft
