Purpose/Title:Speak Their Language: IT Team
If I am talking to the web operations team say we need to:
• Reduce Errors
• Eliminate Redirect Chains
• Block Bots
We won’t get much buy-in.
But if instead I say “Reduce Unnecessary Requests or Save Resources” I’m talking their KPIs.

Purpose/Title:Get to the Point
Executives are busy, We all are. The greatest thing about the internet is also the greatest downfall. We can be connected to limitless information, or we can be inifinitly distracted. Flooded by emails, and you want to send a 20 page POV, or a 95 page audit? It will NOT get read.
So the Ability to be concise is critical! Main points need to be described in the first sentence of an email and convey priority and importance. Pitch around a business case (business KPIs)o Summary, Conclusion, Action, etc.o Screenshot
