My Sources

https://boomtownroi.com/blog/best-emails-to-send-to-real-estate-leads/ This is an academic source.

This assignment reminds me of a project that I had to do in English class in which I...

What is rhetoric?

Rhetoric is speaking or writing persuasively in order to get the audience to do the "mission". R hetoric is not just about what you're saying, it's also about how you're saying it.
