Ways To Appear Smart In Your Email

The following are the 8 ways to appear smart in your email

Congratulate

If any good thing happens in your office, you should be the first person to wish them.

Whenever you reply to an email, always select “reply all”.

Share information

Always have some information for your team. You don’t need to share only the official information. You can share about:

  • The book you read
  • An interesting article that you read in the morning paper
  • Information about your competitors
  • You can also request a feature.

Updates

Share the status updates. It can be about the new joinee in your team or the current status of your project.

Respond Immediately

Whenever you receive an email, always respond immediately. If it is from your manager, then don’t waste even a minute. Reply to it immediately.

Abbreviations

Use abbreviations like PTAL, SMTM, CQ, and AFAIK. Check here for more.

Autoresponder

If you are unable to reply to emails, create an autoresponder.

Suggest Meeting

There are many times when the email threads go on longer.

Any threads beyond 20 do not look good, and it takes time to go through them.

If the email threads go beyond 20, immediately suggest a meeting.

Be a winner.

Phone signature

Use a signature “sent from mobile”. Use this signature even if you use your computer to respond to emails. This creates an image that you are busy. Also, there is no need to proofread for typos.

If you don’t want to reveal the type of mobile you are using, you can edit the signature. You can select “sent from mobile” instead of “sent from Huawei mobile”.
