- Great event! A chance to renew some previous acquaintences and to meet some dynomite new ones. I never fail to leave any BW4W activities without some solid information, or potential business in the pipeline. Thank you BW4W!
Email Etiquette
The way you write and send email says a lot about you, and your company. There is an established etiquette that, when followed, shows your professionalism and courtesy. This video from Kim Komando covers all the high points:
Important takeaways:
- Always put a short subject in the subject line
- Keep the email short, simple, and to the point
- Use the spellcheck and grammar check feature in your email program
- Respond to all emails within 24 hours
- DON’T USE ALL CAPS!!
- Don’t send chain letters, warnings or hoaxes (my personal pet peeve)
- Don’t reply to spammers (and don’t buy anything from them!)
- If you send an email by mistake, suck it up, admit the error, and fix it.
- Proofread before you send
- If anything in the email is confidential, protect yourself with a disclaimer
