After several months of production, and collaboration, YouAccel announces the release of its highly anticipated Persuasive Writing Course. The course offers a comprehensive guide to self-discovery as an aspiring writer and charting a path to success in this exciting industry. It includes a plethora of modules and comprehensive video lessons intended to craft novice writers, copywriters, and bloggers, into professional wordsmiths. As the title suggests, the course focuses primarily on the art of persuasive writing. That is, writing with a purpose or intent. One of the most prevalent forms of persuasive writing is found in copywriting. Copywriting is best defined as the usage of written text for the purpose of marketing, sales, or advertising. Well written sales copy, will ultimately persuade a person or group of people to take a particular action.

The course starts with a theoretical overview of the characteristics of an exceptional writer, including identifying core strengths and weaknesses. From there it dives into a practical guide to persuasive writing using a number of industry standard copywriting formulas. The modules are authored by self-published author, and freelance writer – Lissette Maduro.

Lissette has an extensive background in writing in the health and wellness space, inspired by her experience working as a family physician and medical advisor. She has also made contributions to the Tech and travel writing arena as she enjoys learning about new developments and is an avid traveler. Lissette holds a Doctor of Medicine Degree from the American University of Integrative Sciences. She also has a B.S. in Medical Technology from Oakwood University.

Another great feature of this course is that you have an opportunity to gain exclusive insights directly from two Forbes contributors, who participated with YouAccel in a comprehensive Q&A session on content writing and strategy.

Q&A with matthew rolnick
