Customer Service for Managers | by Paul Wallis Oct. 26, 2011 | $9.99 | 9243 words | Sample 20% |
| Author bio: Professional writer, author of 14 books, digital journalist, musician, graphic artist. I love to write, and if people get 1% of the fun out of reading my books as I do writing them, they're a good deal. I loathe formula writing and I detest conformity. My books and I have a lot in common. Somebody said- "Guys don't read!" My answer- "Nor do cockroaches." Interesting how philosophy bumps in to these ideas, isn't it? Smashwords customers please note: The reason for my relatively high prices is that like most pro writers I'm very tired of getting paid peanuts for my hard work. A decade's work for very little has made me less than keen on birdseed prices. The only other thing I can say in favor of my prices is that you definitely won't find anything like my books online, particularly in the sugary world of management science. I don't write for idiots. Important note re "Customer Service for Managers" I'm sorry, but repeated attempts to format this book have been unsuccessful. Really, I'm now on my tenth draft version, and I do have a life to live. If you have problems or can't download this book, I really don't know what the options are. There is an earlier print and e-book version on lulu.com. |

How to Write a Business Report | by Jennifer Stewart Nov. 04, 2010 | $2.99 | 6129 words | Sample 15% |
| Author bio: Tapping away at a keyboard is what fills my day. It wasn't always this way. For twenty years I was a High School English teacher -- the change really started one day during my long service leave ... I was sitting in the dentist's chair having root canal treatment and it occurred to me that at this time I would normally be teaching my year nine class (around 15 years of age). When I realised that I'd rather be sitting where I was than in front of a class, I knew it was time to look for something new! That something new took the form of a Web site dedicated to helping people improve their writing. I'm still able to focus on my love of education and learning, but now my classroom is the entire world! Since leaving teaching, I've written and marketed a series of writing courses and ebooks, and I've also been a freelance writer, undertaking a variety of assignments for clients from around the globe -- writing articles for the print media,,preparing award submissions for business clients; copy-writing and proof-reading works of non-fiction, editing web pages and e-books, writing press releases and much more. My website, www.write101.com has been part of the Web's writing community since 1998 and continues to offer detailed insights into the workings of the English language presented with just a touch of humour. Voted one of the 101 best websites for writers, Write101 has more than 1,000 pages of articles about all aspects of writing. My weekly writing tips newsletter has 16,000+ subscribers from every continent (except Antarctica!) |
