In this roughly 10-minute episode of Rough Draft with Demian Farnworth, you’ll discover:
- The two-part essence of a great bullet point
- The proper way to think about bullet points (this will keep you from wasting time)
- The mistake amateur bullet writers make when it comes to teasing
- If and when it’s okay to have a bullet longer than one sentence
- A sublime example of bullet points that work
