Case study
Plain Text works with award-winning recruiter Eden Brown to help its consultants write advertisements more effectively. Working closely with our client, we have delivered a tailored training programme to over 100 staff around the UK. The course has since become part of the company’s overall training programme.
“Plain Text’s writing course generated some of the best feedback we have ever seen from a training programme. Our staff loved it, because it consisted of entertaining exercises built around real-life examples, and it had no tedious Powerpoint presentations. As a result, they took on board the messages and we’ve seen lasting results from it.”
Ian Wolter, Chairman, Eden Brown
