Bad writing costs money and Clear writing saves money.
US Navy estimated if all Navy personnel wrote clearly (in plain English), the savings would be $250 million to $350 million every year.
General Electric estimated one manual written in clear English would save between $22,000 to $375,000 in support calls for each business customer.
Federal Express estimated a new reorganized, plain English manual would save $400,000 in employee time in finding information.To earn the right to display the logo, you have to write to the highest standards. Over 90 percent of writing in government, business, and education fails to meet the StyleWriter-measured clarity standard.
Marketing Executive
“I work as a senior marketing manager at a Fortune 500 company. StyleWriter showed us we’re not very good – no we’re dreadful – at communicating with our customers. Since using StyleWriter, I’ve gained the skill of writing clearly. It’s like shining a searchlight through a sea of corporate fog.”
