The point about writing has been made and beat, or is that beet, to death.:dead-horse:As a coin broker you will, of course, be the interface, dealing with others outside the community, so it is one point of many, many things that will help you. If you would like someone to help you by editing your written communications I would be glad to help as time permits. Just Private Message (PM) me the text and I'll send back my suggestions. My wife is a professional editor, and perhaps she can help too, as needed or requested. </p><p><br /></p><p>I very much like the suggestion of joining ASA and taking classes.
