Simple Tips to Remember When Writing an Email
|
|
Snail mail has become passé.
Electronic Mail
or
Email
has taken its place and has become the most
popular form of communication both for personal and professional use.
In today's day
and age, it is difficult to find someone who doesn't have at least one
email id.
Emailing is faster, easier and sometimes more effective than other forms
of communication. Whether you want to stay in touch with your childhood
friend or just want to drop in a hello to your extended family from time
to time, emailing is what is needed.
In the professional
work arena, employees, team members, subordinates and bosses
discuss and assign work through intra mails.
Though
extremely useful, communicating through email can get confusing
if you do not pay attention to small yet crucial details when
writing an email.

Here
are a few things that you should keep in mind to reap the full benefits
of communicating through email -
-
Keep it Short
- When writing an email to someone,
try to focus on what you want to say and say it in a concise
manner. No one has the time or patience to read long emails
except if you are emailing your long lost friend on every important
event that has taken place in your life since you last met them!

-
Use a Relevant
Subject Line - Always use
an apt subject line that best describes the content and
purpose of your email. Keep in mind that most people receive
numerous emails everyday as a result of which their inboxes
are always full. If you want your email to be read and replied
to, remember to use a subject line that is more descriptive
than "No Subject". If your email contains information
that is important or requires an immediate reply, you can
use words like "Urgent" & "Important"
along with the subject line.
- Proofread
Your Email -
People
usually write emails in a rush and at an alarming speed
and are quick to press the send button. A better approach
is to take a few minutes and read your email before sending
it. Check for spelling errors, grammar and typos. Every
email that you send is a reflection of you and a poorly
written email with numerous errors can do no good for you.

Sign off
Properly -
End your email amicably. Depending on who you are writing
to, you might want to include other details such as your phone
no, fax no, address and website url along with your name. You
could also choose to create a formal signature which appears
automatically at the end of every email that you send out. A
well drafted email signature can help you in promoting yourself
and your business / website.
For eg., this is how I sign
off every work email that I send -
