Email DO’s and DONT’s

Email communication is essential in the professional world and has been for quite some time. 

When crafting an email, you want to be clear and concise while providing all the information necessary. 

Remember, being direct does not mean you lack relatability or professionalism. We have all seen, or likely used, phrases ourselves that could have been edited for more practical communication. 

Below are a few ways to eliminate the “fluff” in your email, while still being professional and effective.

As you’re reading this, you may think how your everyday emails are enough practice for effective communication, as many of us are constantly shooting off emails. 

But, we can always improve. 

We want to integrate phrases into our emails that are effective for all audiences. A great email also includes a greeting, an appropriate subject line, and of course correct spelling and punctuation (remember to proofread!). 

I hope some of these tips can seamlessly be integrated into your day-to-day emails.
