COVER LETTER

Cover Letters—Short, Smart, and On-Brand.

Everybody knows (in my Phaedra Parks voice) cover letters are boring to write—and even more boring to read. Good thing you don’t have to write one. I offer three services: Outline, Bespoke, and Recruiter Introductions (RDS). If you’re going to send a cover letter, don’t be generic. Don’t regurgitate your résumé. And definitely don’t send the same one to everyone.

Your Options

Included in Core

Outline

A guided template with notes on what to customize and where to put it—so every letter is tailored and fast.

Cover Letter Add-On & Pro+

Bespoke

A one-of-a-kind letter built from a specific job posting and company—short, sharp, and human.

RDS Upgrade

Recruiter Introductions

A concise, recruiter-friendly intro letter used with your résumé distribution, tuned to your target niche.

Why It Works

Cover letters aren’t novels; they’re positioning tools. We keep them tight, relevant, and aligned to the role—so they actually get read.

Pro tip: one page max, 3–5 short paragraphs, and a clear call-to-action.
