If you have a big question or a big idea, put it right up top so you have a better chance of someone actually seeing it. At worst, they don’t finish reading them. Always put the most important idea up top. This is my super advanced tip for exceptional email skills. ↑ Table of Contents ↑ #4: Use a hierarchy of facts Take-Away: Don’t let your email chains last forever. Let’s stop the madness! If you are on a chain that doesn’t have to do with the original subject, or it has gone so far off course that you have no idea where you started… then it’s time to start a new chain. Have you ever got an email where the subject is just filled with forwards and replies? Or have you ever been on an email chain that is 48 threads long and has nothing to do with the subject or the original question?
↑ Table of Contents ↑ #3: Start new chains Whatever you do, avoid writing a novel in your email! It might even be easier to set up a video call, especially if you are part of a virtual team. Take-Away: If your email is longer than three paragraphs, consider calling. If you think your email is too long, it actually might be! If you can save someone time by making your email shorter, they will be ten times more appreciative than having to read a long email (those are likely to be ignored or saved for later!).
↑ Table of Contents ↑ #2: If it’s longer than three paragraphs, STOP Take-Away: Don’t use ASAP, URGENT, IMPORTANT unless it is really, really ASAP, URGENT, or IMPORTANT. If you overuse ASAP and URGENT you run the risk of people taking you less seriously when it is actually urgent down the line. I think about actually urgent things like bloodshed or falling off a cliff or Youtube being down–you know, the really serious things. When I see ‘URGENT’ in an email subject, my heart starts to race. It’s SUPER IMPORTANT because I’m writing in all caps. I have some great email templates down below, but I want to start with the 18 tips to creating a great email.
