We exclusively speak in Pluralis Majestatis of ourselves.
It sells way better.
- neysofu 5y agoI've given a lot of thought about this in the past, and I do agree with you but it's not because of Pluralis Maiestatis. From the reader's perspective, the team developing the product that I'm selling is simply a set of people. Whether the cardinality of such set happens to be 1 at this particular time, that's an implementation detail.
- ehnto 5y agoI guess it depends on the particular text and it's purpose, but if you are trying to run a business, using a singular I in marketing text would be weird, perhaps even a little narcissistic.
