Four intents this hub supports

How-to (format & logic)

Readers know they need a letter but freeze on salutation, first paragraph, and sign-off. We label each section—hook, need mirror, proof, close—so the skeleton is obvious.

Industry-specific

A nurse, chef, and mobile engineer should not sound the same. Each role path below calls out what reviewers scan for first (metrics vs stack vs service volume).

Asset-led (.docx)

Some visitors want a file they can fill tonight. Pair these guides with downloadable Word layouts on the library page.

Psychological (tone)

Blank-page fear drops when you can pick a stance: confident, collaborative, or career-change bridging. Tone cards live on the library page.

Live industry example pages

Each role page includes a full fictional sample letter, writing tips, and FAQ—not just a keyword stub.
