For an effective communication with our team members, SFI provides us with readily available resources such as draft messages, E-Cards and Instant Messaging. To make an effective use of these tools, it is not critical to be a renowned writer, although it does help. Fortunately it is a skill that can be learned rather easily, without taking to much time.
Hence, my recommendation would be to approach this challenge in two steps.
For now, you can fully rely on all what SFI has made available to all affiliates. Use the affiliate snapshot, to access information about your PSAs, their personal file and valuable information about their goals.

In addition, you may also want to read as much as you can from the SFI database, especially the "Training" section. You will find there all the information you can use in your daily contact with your team members as well as develop your communications skills, while increasing your knowledge about SFI.
This will build your self-confidence and help you approach your communication tasks with ease in mind.
Within the "Training" section, you will find an "Expert Reports" subsection

and a subdivision on "Sales Writing & Communication".
This is highly valuable advanced knowledge on business, sales and communication that very few people are truly and fully familiar with. You can make it your goal to be an expert in these fields, and you will excel in communicating with your team members while growing your business and helping them do the same.
This is already enough to cover the basic communication needs.
If you want to develop further writing skills, there are numerous free online resources. You just need to do a quick search and you will find the appropriate writing tutorials. The most important part of learning to write with clarity and effectiveness is to start with short sentences, small paragraphs to compose an essay on a subject that interest you. Give that essay to a friend and ask for feed back. Repeat the exercise as frequently as you can. Soon you will find yourself fully competent and confident to attack any writing task with ease.
