Writing for Techies

Should YOU be writing corporate materials?

September 28, 2008 7:29 pm

A recent release on PRWeb titled “Help! I’m Stuck With Business Writing Tasks And I Can’t Spell Dieabotticle!” speaks about a booklet called “Leave It To The Prose” recently released with hints for people who need to write for their business.

I haven’t seen the booklet, but I’d bet that it overlaps with much of what I’m saying here. The author, Chris Amorosino whose web site is at http://www.amorosinowriting.com is quoted as saying “Words are a business’s clothes. Don’t go out to your prospects naked …”, a sentiment I can agree with.

The point here that strikes home more than any other isn’t about writing, but it’s about the reality of working in a business today. With the economy struggling and people being laid off left-and-right, we all need to be as flexible as we can be. If you’re asked to write something, can you do it? If you’ve got a technical background, can you write a user’s guide or a web page that will help make your company successful.

Can you ‘Make Your Ideas Clear’?
