When William Caxton introduced his new-fangled printing press in the late 15th Century, the opportunity to persuade with the written word began its inexorable journey. In fact, the oldest surviving print advert, from 1477, is for Caxton's own book 'Ordinale ad usum Sarum', which now resides in the Bodleian Library!
Wordsmiths have been populating the world of print media ever since, with skills that continue to evolve in response to successive communication innovations; from television and radio to, more latterly, the internet and its ubiquitous social media.
Words carry the power to educate, inspire, convince or encourage readers and listeners to make a purchase. . . or respond to a 'call for action', such as the one below.

the dna of english
The English language is a complex beast. Having evolved from largely Anglo-Saxon and Romance roots, it has been heavily influenced by many other languages over the centuries including, but certainly not limited to; French, Greek, Latin, Dutch, Hindi and Spanish.
As a consequence, English is subtley nuanced, frequently idiomatic, and can be expressed in myriad forms ranging from friendly informal, to highly structured technical, legal or business styles.
