Communication Challenges
It’s said that over 90% of how we communicate is through non-verbal cues like gestures and facial expressions
So what do we need to be mindful of when we can’t interact with whom we are communicating with
Golden Rules of Online Communication
Keep it simple– Write as if you were talking to a friend– Content needs to be powerful and to the point– Maintain interest– Concentrate on a single message
Make the message readable– Can it be quickly scanned?– Avoid long paragraphs and lots of words– Read and understood in 15 – 30 seconds– Less is more – can it fit on one screen?
Golden Rules of Online Communication
Use YOU and not We– Keep the focus on them
Consider benefits versus features– People buy benefits– WIIFT (What’s In It For Them)
Subject Line– Must grab attention– We all filter via the subject line– Subject line and first 3 words establish the tone
Golden Rules of Online Communication
Understand your audience– Know and write according to who is reading– Content relevancy is the key to success
Include calls to action– Use words that drive action: buy now, sign up today– Be hard hitting
Punctuate carefully– DON’T SHOUT– Limit exclamations and emoticons
Golden Rules of Online Communication
Sense of urgency– Encourage action right away– Overcome procrastination (sitting in the inbox)
Clarity– Good communication is about being clear– There can’t be room for misunderstanding– Don’t expect the readers to be mind readers
