>>Emphasize the bottom line
>(that will get management's attention)

Also, don't forget that technical writers _save_ the company money
(especially but not exclusively in the area of customer
support/complaints/etc.). More importantly, bad technical writing
_costs_ the company money and customers. This is an important point when
you're talking about bottom-line issues and all.
