How to refine emails to get the point across clearly and concisely.
As the sender
Think about wether emailing is the best option or if you need to use another communication method. Make sure to get to the point straight away, if asking a question put it as a question don’t just make a statement of people could disregard what your trying to tell them be clear about who your stating things to and when you need a response. Use grammar and punctuation it makes it easier for people to read. Summarise what you have written just encase someone has not understood the might be able to get a clearer picture.
As the recipient
Sometimes things can come across differently when written in emails because you can’t hear the person’s tone of voice like when on a telephone so don’t assume any emotions. Try re reading it and see wether it could mean anything else before sending a reply. If you can’t understand an email ask the sender to clarify or even phone them. Use email tools to help sort through emails making it easier to access the important ones when needed.
Email etiquette
Choose a subject to let the recipient now what the email content is going to be about. Address recipients appropriately don’t just write hey Linda use dear and spell the persons name correctly. Choose your tone to suit your recipient for example if writing to your boss don’t start adding smiley faces you would need to use a professional tone with proper grammar and punctuation. Don’t be sarcastic in emails because the recipient won’t be able to tell wether you’re trying to be funny or just being rude. Don’t send attachments with out asking the person unless you know them an finally edit your email to get rid of any errors.
