Construction Marketing Daily Tips: Letter Writing Structure
There is no set formula for writing a letter but we like to use the AIDA plan to structure ours. It is an easily applied and effective format for a good letter:
- Attention - The first paragraph should be used to secure initial interest with a ‘hook’
- Interest – In the second paragraph use the attention to build interest further.
- Desire – In the third paragraph, build solid evidence in of your suitability for the work by highlighting similarities between previous jobs and references.
- Action – Finally, in the fourth paragraph, outline the action you will be taking so as to clarify and to reinforce a sense that you are on top of the project.
