7 Trends for Business Writers in 2020 (Part 1)

You’ve probably heard it said that there are two things in life that are certain: death and taxes. I’d like to add a third thing that is certain: constant change in the writing and publishing world.

Or, you might say that the only thing that never changes is the fact that things are always changing!

This is the case in nearly every part of life and society today. We live in a time of upheaval and change. This is especially true in the world of writing, publishing, and content creation, especially when it comes to business.

Since we’re at the beginning of a new year, I thought it would be helpful to look at some trends I see on the horizon for this year. If we’re going to be effective in our communication, writing, and marketing, we must keep up with the changing times and be willing to do things differently.

But rather than seeing these trends as a threat, or in some other negative way … I believe they represent opportunities for reaching people in new and interesting ways. And like most things in life, our attitude and perspective will determine whether we embrace these changes and continue to grow … or whether we ignore these changes and become increasingly irrelevant. 

So let’s dive in: 7 trends for business writers in 2020 (in no particular order). Fair warning: I’m breaking up this topic into two episodes. I’m committed to keeping these solo episodes short to respect your time. We’ll look at the first three on this episode, then the last four in the next episode.
