Is the most important thing about your profile the grammar?
Take another look at your Dating Profile online, and let me help you make it work.
We worry about how we present ourselves, and work hard on our profiles, and photos and so forth, but studies show that the most immediate D.E.A.L.B.R.E.A.K.E.R. is spelling. Isn't that interesting?
And guys -- you are the worst at this!
Yes, if you have a misspelled word in there, someone is likely to dismiss you immediately. I know it's a turnoff to me -- in advertising of any sort. I just got a flyer about a seminar that said you could "loose your anger", and I chucked the flyer immediately. If they can't differentiate between "lose" and "loose" in something as important as a flyer, or afford to pay for a good copy-writer, then what kind of seminar will they be presenting?
The same applies to dating. For most of us, we expect the person we date to at least be literate.
Here's proof of the pudding. I send out many ezines, have many blogs, and also email flyers. I have an administrative assistant I dictate some of them to, and I do not always edit. Whenever there has been a typo SOMEONE has written to tell me.
Yes, it matters that much. And "spellcheck" isn't going to catch things like "loose" when you meant "lose," because "loose is spelled correctly. You need a great copy-writer and I can provide that service for you.
Let me write your profile for you.
So come on now! Let me help you write a profile that will work!! Email me at sdunn@susandunn.cc.
