Write It Right on National Punctuation Day

Punctuation is one of the most important, yet overlooked, aspects of business writing. As a business professional you know the importance of spell-checking your work. You wouldnt dream of sending out a business plan, sales pitch, proposal, or even an office memo without performing that all-important function. But when you self-edit your work, how closely do you check your punctuation?



Using improper punctuation in an important business document reflects just as poorly on you as bad spelling. Put yourself in your readers shoes. Imagine reading a memo from one of your colleagues that didnt include something as simple as a period at the end of each sentence. You would be astounded by their carelessness. Now imagine the same reaction from a potential client or customer after they read your pitch.



August 22nd, National Punctuation Day, is the perfect day to start paying more attention to your punctuation. According to Dawn Josephson and Lauren Hidden, authors of the new book Write It Right: The Ground Rules® for Self-Editing Like the Pros, "Most people know when to use periods, exclamation marks, and questions marks, but semicolons, colons, and quotations pose greater challenges."



While self-editing can be troublesome, Write It Right breaks it down into five easy steps and includes examples, so readers can learn exactly what their strengths and weaknesses are. The book also goes into detail about the correct way to use punctuation marks like the serial comma, semicolon, colon and quotation marks so that youll always know how to write it right!



Dawn Josephson, the Master Writing Coach™, is a professional speaker and internationally acclaimed author who empowers leaders to master the printed word for enhanced credibility, positioning, and profits. She is the founder and president of Cameo Publications, LLC and is the creator of The Ground Rules™ book series.

1031 Exchange: New Blunders to Avoid

1031: Alligator Blunder:

There are 3 major Blunders that can turn an investment into a nightmare. It is one’s duty to avoid these at all costs when contemplating a 1031 exchange.

Blunder #1: Dealing with a non specialized company that does not know what it really does. Check their history of TIC offerings, ask for referrals from satisfied clients. Ideally, they should only be doing this kind of transactions. Are all their properties "top of the range" commercial buildings or not ? Ask how they get listings and what are their criteria to select them. Quality properties are hard to find and sell out quickly. In real estate, quality properties remain always desirable - low ones lag.... (Continue reading)
