Small Business Success Seminar: An Email Code of Conduct—A Key To Productivity and Profitability 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM Community Room, 8 Venture Ave., Brunswick Landing , Brunswick, Maine

Presented by Bruce MacMillan of MacMillan Associates, Inc.  A lively and interactive seminar designed to teach you important business writing skills and practices, and show you how to implement them throughout your organization.  The seminar is free!  Plus, each attendee will receive a free, post-seminar critique of a writing sample.

Businesses and other organizations use “codes of conduct” to govern various aspects of their operations, including ethics, safety, conflicts of interest and core values.

Written communications—including emails and blogs—are another important business element that would benefit from the guidance and expectations communicated by a “code of conduct.” Why?  Because the code would help inspire better writing, leading to increased productivity and profitability for your organization.

In this lively and interactive seminar you’ll learn:

  • Important business writing skills.
  • “Email Code of Conduct” provisions.
  • How to implement a code for yourself and your organization.

Participants will receive a free, post-seminar critique of a writing sample. Each seminar attendee may email Bruce one writing sample (maximum length:  two pages) within 30 days of the seminar.  Bruce will review your sample and email you his comments.
