    Print Media Distribution

    In a recent consultation a client, who is a business owner, asked questions about writing compelling letters and adverts.

    In this fifth article he wanted to know how to make sure his order form didn't 'kill the sale'…

    Question In your book, you say the order form can be a stumbling block that prevents people responding to your offer. What would you advise to turn the form into a good response generator rather than a barrier to responding?

    Answer
