Efficient Emailing

Most people normally spend over a quarter of their workday dealing with emails. Imagine what you could do with all the time you could save by being more efficient with your emailing habits! More marketing and networking perhaps (wink, wink).

Here are a few tips on how to be better at emailing:
  • Respond to emails right away. Yes, always! This might seem like a time killer, but it’s not. We are not saying you have to address every concern and question in your response, but a simple, “I got your message, I’ll get back to you ASAP” will do.
  • Commit to writing simpler, clearer, and better emails- the kinds of emails people actually look forward to reading. A great example of this would be to state your intentions upfront, and get to the point.
  • Use Statements- no open-ended questions. Try this: “ I think having the meeting on Thursday at noon is the best time. If you disagree, please respond back.” Not this: “ When does everyone think we should have the meeting? I’m open to times.”
  • Be brief. We know it’s close to impossible to express yourself in three sentences or less. If you are having trouble keeping your thoughts brief, you might want to have a face-to-face meeting or make a phone call.
There you have it, a few tips to get you started. At the very least, think about how you can be more efficient with emailing and implement a plan that works for you!
