Clear Presentation

In this uncertain climate, strong writing skills are essential for business success. Clients are nervous and unsure, they want reassurance and to know exactly what is on offer. When a business is represented poorly in its written communication then everything else about that business is questioned. A clear presentation can often make the difference between a business that succeeds and one that fails.

Newsletters

Newsletters can be an excellent marketing tool. They can be used to promote the products and services provided by your business. A good business newsletter can help to increase business and to make sales.

Targeted CV

Make sure your CV is written in a way that highlights skills, qualifications and experience that match the requirements of the advertised position.

Terms of Business

Clearly set out your Terms of Business in writing and an invoicing system to maintain a healthy cashflow.

Defining Business Critical Processes

Business-critical information varies from business to business. Examine your mission statement and consider which areas of the business are required to run smoothly in order for the business to continue operations. Which documents and databases are vital? These documents and files should be imaged electronically and then backed up and stored in an off-site location or on a mirrored server.

Networking

Make the most of any networking opportunities and develop your 'one minute pitch' using appropriate words to gain an interest in your business.

Job Descriptions

The main purpose of a job description is to identify the duties, essential functions and requirements of the position. It should be a statement of what duties and responsibilities the employee is expected to complete and a means for achieving them.
