1. What is the difference between an informative communication and a persuasive communication?

Which do you think is more challenging in terms of preparation and delivery?

-Informative communication entails conveying fascinating information or facts about a subject. An

example might be a teacher informing students about an earthquake. Persuasive communication is the
process of persuading someone. A person advertising a thing by handing out free samples in the hopes
that people would buy it if they enjoy the item from the sample. Persuasive communication is more
challenging for me since in order to succeed, you must influence a large number of individuals. It doesn't
really matter if you fail or succeed in providing information in Informative communication as long as you
shared your expertise with your audience.
