PRSA Webinar
This is a PRSA Webinar, free for PRSA Pittsburgh members.
Overview
Participate in this webinar to sharpen the core writing skills required for social media posts, news releases, blog posts, speeches, media pitches and any other PR document. After this session you’ll be writing faster, using fewer words, and achieving bigger impact. But don’t expect to sit back and zone out – you’ll be pecking away at your keyboard during the session, learning by doing the exercises that demonstrate the new techniques.
Some of what you’ll learn:
- Specific techniques to slash wordiness and still say the same thing.
- Punch up power and clarity by eliminating passive voice.
- Write like a journalist to credibly persuade.
- Inject color and flair to engage an otherwise uninterested reader.
