178. Do and Make In A Business Context: ...

Anna Connelly, Anna Connelly.
About this episode

The classic question! Is it do or make? This has come up a lot recently and I want to help you get this right once and for all. This is a really useful topic as well because they come up a lot in business English.  I'm going to break down Do and Make into different categories to help you build a map that you can use as a reference point to help you remember which one is which.
