Ten takeaways from Write This, Not That
In this Gumroad course, Joshua Lisec shares 45 do’s and don’ts about persuasive writing. It’s a cheap overview of everything you need to know to start writing to persuade. My favourite lessons are these ten, but every lesson is worth it.
1. Use affirmative language
Tell people what to think of or do instead of what not to think of or do.
(It might have the reverse effect.)
Don’t think of a pink elephant. See…
2. Only give the necessary details
I don’t need to know your dog’s name if I want to buy your car.
3. Stop hedging, start risking
Avoid phrases like
“maybe”, “in my opinion”, “might” and “try to”
Show more confidence.
4. Have an “in your face CTA”
What do you want them to do?
Make it clear from the start.
5. Add new value.
Don’t repeat what everyone already knows.
Tell them what they know but can’t express.
Same for quotes.
Don’t repeat quotes everyone has already read everywhere.
Make it better in your words. You’re the expert.
6. Make your language stick together
When you give motivational examples, can you visualise it?
Do you
a) cut the chord;
b) beat your problem;
c) find a solution?
7. Keep constructions parallel
Keep this in mind for bullet lists.
Always start with the same type of word.
Do:
» Sleep more
» Eat less
» Read in your free time
Don’t
» Sleep more
» Do not eat much
» In your free time, read
8. Write for your ideal reader
Do your market research.
» What are their expectations?
» What words do they use?
» What problems do they have?
9. Give one example per point
Select the best one.
If you need more than one, the examples aren’t good enough.
10. Assume your readers don’t know and are not already agreeing
Be clear and concise. Convince them.
If you don’t do it, who else will?

Business online course
Information about business:
Business is the activity of making one’s living or making money by producing or buying and selling products (such as goods and services).
[need quotation to verify] Simply put, it is “any activity or enterprise entered into for profit.
It does not mean it is a company, a corporation, partnership, or have any such formal organization, but it can range from a street peddler to General Motors.”
Having a business name does not separate the business entity from the owner, which means that the owner of the business is responsible and liable for debts incurred by the business.
If the business acquires debts, the creditors can go after the owner’s personal possessions.
A business structure does not allow for corporate tax rates. The proprietor is personally taxed on all income from the business.
