Top 8 Tips To Write A Business Email
The modes of written communication have evolved over the years and
how! What began with emails replacing the old school pen and paper has
now moved over to WhatsApp and Hangout messages. Today’s millennials
barely know how to type in full forms.
This is the generation of abbreviations where LOL and ROFL make the
most-used words! As youngsters prefer texting in colloquial language over
literature, students are losing the habit of writing messages in complete
sentences that are grammatically correct and meaningful.
As compared to texts, emails must have more self-contained messages that
reflects professionalism.
• From your student days to your working career, you have to write
millions of business emails. Even as a student, professional and business
emails will have an important role to play in your life.
• From your application for a scholarship to your participation in a
school/college event, communicating with the higher authorities are
generally done through a professional email.
• When you send a professional email to a higher authority, it is the
language that you use and how you use it that makes the first
impression.
• Considering that in most cases the receiver of the email won’t know you,
it becomes necessary that you put forward your best foot in the email to
make it impactful and impressive.
ARE YOU WONDERING HOW TO WRITE A
PROFESSIONAL EMAIL?
HERE ARE 8 BRILLIANT TIPS
If you have been looking for some help to write a professional email, look
no further. Here are some of the best tricks to compose the best
professional email.
1. The subjectline is important
Most of you might think that the Subject box is redundant and that it
serves no purpose. Think it this way – what makes you read an article in
the newspaper? The heading, right?
The subject serves the same purpose. The receiver gets an idea of what to
expect inside the mail. So, the next time you compose an email and hit
the send button after ignoring the subject box, think twice.
With the subject line, you give the reader a concrete reason to open your
message. And just like a heading, the subject should be to the point and
crisp.
2. Don’t lose sight of what you want to communicate
Quite often, students forget the primary motive of writing the email and
end up making what could have been a five sentence email a verbose
piece. You need to understand that the person you are mailing to receives
multiple professional and business emails every day, to say the least.
So, you need to write the content as precisely as possible. Remember the
purpose of the email – why are you writing? From a request to a Call to
Action, the language might differ, but the message should be conveyed
articulately.
If it’s a long one, then instead of writing the content in a chunky
paragraph, write it in bullets. This will make the email more readable.
3. Correct tone, correct words and corrected material
Considering that a professional email or a business email is sent for
official purposes, the content of your email should always be formal. The
tone should be anything but casual. Do not make the mistake of using
abbreviations or colloquial terms in the email.
Writing a sentence like “Dis is 2 infrm u” can have a disastrous effect. The
content should be direct and polite at the same time. Also, make sure that
you do not use the uppercase in the email.
Linguistic shortcuts reflect a casual attitude in the email, thus negating
its formal approach.
4. Try to avoid attachments
Unless it is necessary to do so, try to avoid sending attachments through
a business email so that the reader does not have to download any
attachment to know what the email is all about.
Try to write and explain (in brief, that is) about the contents of the
enclosure so that the first thing that the reader sees is the information.
Moreover, address a line stating that you have attached a document or a
file and give a line for the content that the reader can expect in the
attached file.
For example, if it a filled out form, then mention a line like, “Please find
the filled-up submission form attached” so that the reader knows it is an
important document.
5. Identify yourself clearly
Since you cannot give a detailed introduction in a professional email, you
would want to identify yourself accurately, so that the receiver of your
email knows who sent the mail.
You need to remember that the emails received by professionals from
unknown sources don’t get recognized and are often left unread and sent
to the trash bin.
So, when you know that the person you are writing to doesn’t know you
well enough to recognise your email address, it is better that you sign off
with your entire name.
6. Be careful of what you send
Although the email reaches just one person, you cannot assume that the
email sent will be kept private. So, a good practice would be to stay as
generic as you can in the email.
Don’t send anything over email that gives away too much of your personal
life. Moreover, as a part of workplace communication, the receiver should
not have access to your own life. Emails are not secure enough and can be
hacked.
7. Check through the samples
A professional email can make or break your career. For example, if the
email is an application for a scholarship, then you know that a lot banks on
the email and so you would not want to mess it up.
So, if you don’t know how to write a professional email that is impactful
enough to fetch positive feedback and create a great impression, don’t
stress it out.
Taking a cue from a sample will help you compose a business email that
is professional and courteous at the same time.
8. Show Respectand Restraint
Proofreading should be an essential part of the process. Make sure that
you have punctuated your message properly and the spellings are correct.
You may see some typos or areas that will need revising. If you are
sending a message to someone with a higher designation in the chain of
command, take an extra minute or two to check through the draft before
hitting the Send button.
And if you still feel challenged at the thought of writing a professional
email, then opting for professional help might be the best solution for
you!
