Write a Pen Pal Profile that Gets Results

When a prison inmate spends their hard-earned money for a pen pal profile, it should be considered an investment -- into their lives, their happiness, and their future. But what actually makes a profile good or bad? In this episode, Big Steve and Daisy share proven tips and techniques to help incarcerated men and women write a profile that will catch a reader's attention and get results. The tips shared in this episode could make all the difference between a profile that gets zero responses (or hits, as they're called) or a profile that gets dozens of letters, emails, and messages each week. If you're locked up and listening to this episode from the comfort of your cell (on your tablet), we hope you'll take these suggestions to heart and start writing more successful profiles today. And for those in the free world who know someone in prison, we hope you'll take notes, and share this valuable information with them. You could even play the podcast for them over the phone, and let them take it all in! PenPals.Buzz office manager, Daisy, has typed and edited thousands of prison pen pal profiles from the PenPals.Buzz corporate headquarters in Anderson, CA. She knows what works, and more important, she knows what doesn't work. You'll hear several real examples, from actual profiles on our website, on what NOT to write and why. (Spoiler alert: It's never a good idea to upload a picture of yourself flipping off the camera -- at least not if you actually expect someone will want to be your pen pal!).
