Some pointers in business writing skills
Before you start writing set clear objective. The style /tone of communication differs since the recipient are at different end that is the communication to your manager / senior ,team, colleague, client , vendors cannot be sent with the same standard format.
The communication should be expressive /articulate brief and smart. For example if you are writing to client with details about a product then communicate all the details required from the customer point of view. Usually sellers like to talk about their product which might not help the client. Give information that are necessary and will help the clients/ customers
All the information provided should be related to the subject and unnecessary information should be avoided.
Refrain from writing with an informal approach to the business clients.
Practice is one of the most important aspects of business writing which will develop your language skills. Again one needs to be open to feedbacks and take assistance or can get their writing assessed/edited initially till mastered. The learning is an ongoing process and should be assimilated from various sources . Further to acquire/persevere is a constant personal endeavour .

How I decided to become an Entrepreneur.
Today I am writing about how to become an entrepreneur but trust me I had no clue or rather the guts to follow the footsteps of one. I was one of those who would just pray and pray to God with a little bribe sometimes for just another job with security and satisfactory paycheck(satisfaction is again another problem) . Ok so when did I decide about becoming one and to understand I will have to travel back some years ago.
Being a commerce graduate and with little luck I managed to get my first job at 21 . I kept learning and started loving my job and then my second job and then the third and worked as if it were my baby but deep down I was not feeling complete, there was a desire to do something different. There were business ideas which I shared them with my colleagues ,friends and family and was well appreciated but the ideas would fade away because I did not believe in myself or rather was at comfort zone with paycheck credited to my account exactly on the last date of the month.
Today I feel positive but three years back with two children I was in unorganized , in chaotic state not knowing about my vision but every day I would pray (again with little bribe or emotional blackmail) for the gates to open.
Few months back after reading stories about how today the giant companies started and became big left me thinking what have I done to change my position . Why was I not taking a decision of becoming an entrepreneur, since history has proved that lack of capital or a team or place cannot stop you( As pondered earlier). It was only me and my pessimist attitude that was stopping me.
Once the decision taken the world changed for me . Opportunities would come because I moved towards them. Currently I am working on e-learning and online training .Today I am managing my career , family and pursuing my further studies. Till few years back I wouldn’t have imagined managing the three together but the only change now is that I have started loving all three of them.
