Description

Have you written an email in which you asked someone to do something, and they didn't? That is not a successful email. However, the problem is in the way you've written your email - not the reader refusing to do what you've asked.

The good news is, is that it is simple to learn how to write effective, successful emails, and my course takes you through the whole process and each part of an email.

Take this course if you want to learn how to improve your email writing technique, and please ask me any questions you might have!
