importance of using proper grammar in business
communications.
A professional approach
 Poor grammar is one of the reasons why customers avoid certain
companies.
 When users visit your website and read poorly constructed
sentences, the initial impression would be that the site and the
company behind it are not trustworthy.
First impressions matter
 First impression is last impression
 Good spelling, correct grammar and the appropriate use
of punctuation will give them more confidence in the
person (or the company) communicating with them.
Good reputation
 Similarly, clients and suppliers are more likely to trust a
company that communicates clearly and correctly.
 The use of proper grammar will help maintain your
business’ credibility and reputation as a professional.
 "Your grammar is a reflection of
your image. Good or bad, you have
made an impression. And like all
impressions, you are in total
control."
