Before-and-After StyleWriter Samples:
Business Letters
Business letters usually contain stale writing habits such as stale phrases, passive verbs and stilted language as writers wrongly assume they must conform to the traditional style. Business letters, like any other writing, must be clear and natural to help the reader understand the message. StyleWriter can help you edit business letters, cutting out the typical habits of passive verbs, business clichés and redundant phrases.
One insurance company started using StyleWriter on routine business letters asking customers to update information. Before StyleWriter, the company needed to write follow-up letters to about 30 per cent of customers who had not answered the first letter. After editing the original letters sent, the need for follow-up letters dropped from 30 percent to under 10 percent. The company estimated that this one saving paid for the StyleWriter license for its 150 employees drafting the letters.
