Following up with clients about their writing skills is essential in ensuring the integrity of my consulting practice. Here are four ways I follow up:
1. Offer additional coaching. Writing needs change as clients move into new positions that require more technical or managerial writing.
2. Respond to all queries. Current and even former clients write or call with specific questions about grammar, reference books, or websites. I respond to all of them.
3. Address their issues on this blog. Often questions directed to me become the source of a blog post. Those posts seem to be the most popular on WORDS ON THE LINE.
4. Suggest additional courses. Many of my clients have taken more than one of my courses, and some as many as six in different areas (e.g., grammar, email, business writing, technical writing, executive summary writing, and persuasive writing). I see their improvement with each course they take.
