1. Write clearly and concisely; this is no time to be longwinded or flowery.
2. Be sincere--most people can sense when you aren't being honest. 3. Stick to the point.
4. Write the thank-you letter as soon as possible after the event (for a job interview, this should be within 24 hours of the interview). However, do not thank the person beforehand (for example, "Thanking you in advance for your help in this matter"). To do so is presumptuous and suggests you are unwilling to write a follow-up letter.
5. Use quality paper. Handwrite personal letters, and use customized letterhead for business correspondence. E-mail may also be appropriate in less formal situations, especially if the addressee expresses a preference for it or if time constraints require it. 6. Proofread the letter before sending it: grammatical errors and typos are sloppy and unprofessional. 7. Be specific and include details from the event. Make your letter stand out (don't send a generic letter that could be to or from anyone). 8. Address your letter to a specific person, if possible, not just the company or organization in general.
