About this item

You're wasting your reader's time. Here's how to change, in just six words: Brevity is confidence. Length is fear.             This guiding principle turned first Politico and then Axios into hugely influential media companies. It's also in the dna of Smart Brevity™, the Axios spin-off that teaches Fortune 500 companies, organizations, professional writers and other individuals how to get their message heard. Now they've distilled their lessons into an essential guide - and manifesto - for writing effectively in the digital age.            Smart Brevity is a system and strategy that will teach anyone who works with words how to think more sharply, communicate more crisply, and save your readers time. It's about how to say more with less. And how, on a deeper level, to clean up and reframe your thinking.
