3 Things to do When Writing Email
Today’s productivity pointer reviews 3 things to pay attention to when writing or responding to email.
1. Practice good email etiquette. This includes knowing when to hit “Reply to All” vs. “Reply”. Another good practice is to use the BCC (blind courtesy copy) feature when sending email to 2 or more people who do not know one another and do not need to know one another.
2. Be clear on deadlines and details when writing an email. The last thing you want to do is to cause uncertainty in the minds of your recipients, which will only result in their need to write additional email back to you for clarification.
3. Keep your email as brief as possible. Use bullets and numbers when discussing two or more items as that will keep things brief and bring clarity
And my bonus tip -. If you have youngsters in your midst who are beginning to use email, teach them how to write and manage their email as it isn’t something they’re getting in school.
