Quick Write 9/20

Persuasion leaves the decision up to the reader by using different techniques in order to make it seem like a reader, or buyer, needs their product. Advertising is a major type of persuasion such as commercials and billboards; because they show the people why they need a certain product.

An argument is when two different people make true statements that contradict one another. An argument is used to resolve any disagreement that the two people have. Arguments don't always have to be negative however, anyone can use an argument to inform others about a certain topic.

A resume or CV is an argument because you are selling yourself to the employer, proving to them why you should get the job over everyone else.
