Email Writing Tips

#1: Do Pay Attention to The Subject Line

Write a clear, concise subject line that reflects the body of the email. Avoid subject lines with,“Hi,” or “FYI,” and do not leave a subject line blank.

#2: Do Proofread

Check and recheck for spelling and grammatical errors. These errors make you seem unprofessional and will reduce the likelihood that the email will be taken seriously. Email software comes with many professional tools such as spell check - use them.
