Training: Effective Marketing Writing  
   

Designed for anyone who regularly writes marketing materials, Writing Machine's Effective Marketing Writing training delivers a range of copywriting techniques and tools that will help improve the quality, efficiency and consistency with which written material is produced.

 
   

Effective Marketing Writing is a one-day or two-day course delivered in your offices for up to 12 delegates at a date convenient to you.

 

Who should attend?
Anyone who is involved in marketing communications will find this course invaluable. Whether they are writing brochures, case studies, web copy, direct mail, newsletters, press releases, internal communications, or even their company intranet, delegates will be able to apply what they learn as soon as they are back at their desks. Previous delegates have included marketing managers, marketing support staff, internal and external communications managers and PR managers.

 

What will delegates learn?
We know that every organisation or department has its own specific writing challenges. That's why we use a modular approach for our Effective Marketing Writing training. The course teaches delegates the core skills they need for smarter and better writing planning, structuring, crafting and reviewing. Plus, with a two-day course you can select three 'In Practice' modules on the second day, which apply the theory to your particular needs.

 

On both the one-day and two-day versions, delegates how to:

  • write the right message for the right person
  • plan and structure writing
  • write with clarity – to make it easy for the reader
  • be engaging – turning facts into benefits, and staying positive and direct
  • use clear layout - with bullets, boxes, bold text and captions
  • proofread - techniques for that final polish

Choose your own In Practice Modules
In addition, with a two-day course you can choose three of the following In Practice modules:

  • writing for the web
  • DM Writing
  • tone of voice*
  • persuasive PowerPoint
  • how to write emails
  • grammar - breaking the rules
  • punctuation


Bespoke modules
We can also work with you to develop bespoke modules suited to the precise needs of your business or department.*

 

*These will need bespoke development and will therefore incur an extra charge.

 

A writing trainer
The trainer will be an experienced writer, who will demonstrate the techniques we use to make our writing professional, punchy and engaging. As a result, delegates will not only learn theories that can underpin the way they write marketing communications in the future, they will also have the opportunity to implement those theories under the watchful eye of someone who writes for a living.

 

After the course, delegates will be sent the course notes as a reference document for the future. These explain, expand and reiterate all the points raised throughout the course, so delegates will never be stuck trying to remember what they were taught. In addition, all delegates are signed up to our monthly Trade Secrets of Writing emails - giving them further writing hints and tips.
