– and advocate – Plain Language principles and practices. For over 20 years, Plain Language has
been improving communications in law, health care, and government. It is
now starting to impact science, engineering, and business. Plain
Language improves the quality, clarity, and overall value of written
information in: ·
Legal documents and contracts ·
Insurance policies ·
Business policies and operational procedures ·
Scientific and technical documents ·
User documentation ·
Public documents Plain
Language results in clear, easily-understood, well-organized materials, keyed
to their intended audience. Plain Language materials have a much higher
probability of success, and a greater business value, than materials
that do not follow these principles. It does
not matter whether Plain Language is applied to books, manuals, or websites.
The results are almost always the same ·
More consistent understanding regardless of the language skills or
education levels of different audiences ·
Better recall of information ·
Reduced training time and cost for new employees ·
Lower error rates in complex processes and functions ·
Higher satisfaction with products and services supported by Plain
Language ·
More persuasive sales, marketing and advocacy information For a great introduction to Plain Language, visit www.plainlanguage.gov. Template-based services Templates
for planning, designing, and creating written materials make it easier to
ensure quality and customer satisfaction with the final results. I follow a project management process that ·
Uses Microsoft Project or Excel project planning templates ·
Quickly and clearly identifies primary and secondary audiences ·
Ensures agreement on the look-and-feel of all materials ·
Efficiently and effectively manages – and reduces the cost
– of changes in direction ·
Gives the client a regular, frequent review of progress ·
Speeds and simplifies resolution of issues as they arise Contact me ·
