Sticky Communication

Hello. I’m Barb Sawyers, the energy behind Sticky Communication, dedicated to turning good talkers into great writers so they can connect with more people.

I’d love to show you how you can apply your ease with talking to all the writing you’re expected to do, through my blog, book, training, speaking and newsletter. I also enjoy transforming telephone conversations into written content.

I first caught on to the dynamics of the spoken word when I wrote speeches for politicians. Then I applied what worked in talking to written communication. More recently, I’ve plunged into blogging and other social media, where communication is a conversation.

I have the education and experience to back up my unique approach. I have a master’s degree in journalism and an honors B.A. in philosophy. I have 30 years’ experience, the first half mostly with government and financial services, the rest working for clients that include Livingston International, Honeywell, IBM, Carlton Cards, St. Michael’s Hospital, Providence Healthcare and Volunteer Canada along with several ministries of the Canadian and Ontario governments.

I’m an active member of Toronto IABC and the past chair of the Professional Independent Communicators.

If you’d like to learn how to Write Like You Talk—Only Better, read my blog, buy my book or arrange some training. If you’d like me to write about your expertise in your voice, email me. Or give me a call at (416) 690-1473. I love to talk.
