Have you ever opened an email that looked more like a book?
It’s overwhelming to get hit by a wall of text—especially if you’re on your phone.
I know when I do, my brain just wants to exit and run!
Emails should be short and sweet, right?
If someone has to scroll down, there’s a good chance your email’s too detailed.
Here’s my system for writing productive emails:
1. Use bullet points to highlight important information and break up the text. 2. Use short paragraphs of 1-3 sentences each. 3. Avoid using words that could be misinterpreted as a negative emotion. 4. Review the email, removing any unnecessary information and correcting errors, before sending.
You’ll save yourself and the recipient a huge headache!
Bonus tip: If you find that you can’t reduce the length of the email without sacrificing important details, it may mean a phone call would be best.
