Document Summary
Phase 3 of writing process: revise: devote about half of the time to this phase of writing process. Tightening your message by revising for conciseness: (in business time is indeed money) examine every sentence that you write. Eliminating abby expressions: example: this is a short note to let you know that. Limiting long lead-ins:example: i am sending you this email to announce that we have hired a new manager. Instead of saying we have hired a new manager. Rejecting redundancies: expressions that repeat meaning or include unnecessary words are redundant. Saying unexpected surprise is like saying surprise surprise. Purging empty words: example: in the case of facebook, it increased users but lost share value. Instead of saying facebook increased users but lost share values . Microblogging: concise expression is important in microblogging. (used in social media, twitter facebook tumblr) Evaluating is the process of analyzing whether your message achieve its purpose.
