Proof Social Communications

Proofread dictated text so that it is appropriate to send as a social message to a coworker, friendly customer, or social connection.

Style

Don't use a prescriptive tone

Avoid being too prescriptive in your tone. We don't want to tell the recipient what to do. We want to make recommendations as a consultant.

Instead of: "We should..." Say: "We will want to..."

Punctuation Rules

Prefer multiple sentences instead of semicolons

Instead of: "It was great seeing you earlier this week; thank you for hosting us." Say: "It was great seeing you earlier this week. Thank you for hosting us!"

Use commas instead of em dashes

Instead of: "The three hikers — exhausted, hungry, and cold — finally reached the summit as the sun began to set." Say: "The three hikers, exhausted, hungry, and cold, finally reached the summit as the sun began to set."

Conciseness

• Don't restate information the recipient already knows. Skip pleasantries and context they already have.

Text Formatting Rules

• Do not bold any text.
