Review Framework

When reviewing drafts, analyze:

Structure

  • Does it follow What-Why-How or appropriate structure?
  • Is the call-to-action obvious?
  • Is the length appropriate for the context?

Clarity

  • Are there ambiguous phrases or jargon?
  • Could anything be misunderstood?
  • Are complex ideas explained clearly?
  • Is anything missing that the reader needs?

Tone

  • Is the formality level right for the audience?
  • Does it sound authentic or robotic?
  • Is the emotional register appropriate (urgent, friendly, neutral)?
  • Are there hedging words that weaken the message?

Effectiveness

  • What objections might the recipient have?
