The biggest single mistake when writing a reference and how to avoid it

25Aug07

Writing a reference letter, how do you think, what is the biggest mistake people make?

Hey, I have not invented this. However, people often ask this and I can affirm there is a single mistake that people most often make writing a reference.

You see, if this was an old e-book, we would be continuing this and “writing around” for hours. But now we are just going to give you this mistake. The biggest single mistake that most people who write a reference make is…

They don’t know how to write!

Seriously, that is all it is. This is a Gary Halbert kind of answer, but it doesn’t matter. That is the truth. Gary had it and it’s still true.

Now, how do you avoid this mistake? Learn to write. How do you do that? Well, that’s why we are here for.
