From this we can say that the author probably thinks that the current marketing

               program  only  focuses  on  listings  and  not  on  "proactive  solutions"  —  probably
               relocation programs and buyer representation. So how did the author come up with

               these ideas?


               The Inartistic Information

               If  the  two  previous  points  are  the  artistic  information,  then  what  constitutes  the

               inartistic information? The inartistic information is pretty much everything else. That
               includes all of the "because" listed after the statement "expansion of the marketing

               program is important …" such as, the point that clients need to know about all the

               programs that we offer and not just those traditionally associated with real estate
               brokerage services, or their business and referrals might be lost.



               Revision

               Now  that  you  have  separated  out  the  artistic  information  from  the  inartistic
               information, try to correctly queue the points so that they flow in a logical order.

               Then, try to write a topic sentence for the passage that sums up what the paragraph

               is about. Remember what we learned about:
                       Passive voice

                       Taught language
                       Professionalism

                       Tone

                       Diction
                       Buzz words



               With these things in mind, rewrite the problematic sentences so that they read more
               smoothly. Once you finish, continue below. After we have the passage more or less

               "revised" we will discuss the means of persuasion that it uses and if other means

               would be a better choice.
