Removing Fillers

The first thing that must be eliminated in your writing to make it more concise is fillers. Fillers fatten your sentences with unnecessary words that can make your writing seem less professional and make your points less clear. Two of the most common fillers are there and it, in most cases these words are not necessary. Below is an example of a sentence that can be improved by removing the filters:

Sentence with fillers:

It is the client who should make application for a licence.

Concise sentence without fillers:

The client should apply for a licence.

Following this step will make your writing clear and to the point.
