== Salutation ==
+
-
The first line of your email should be a salutation. Something like,
+
-
: Good Morning, Brett,
+
-
: Brett,
+
-
: Dear Brett,
+
-
: Dear Mr. Wuth,
+
-
: Jane and Tim,
+
-
Always include the person's name as this is a cue that you want action from them.
+
-
Otherwise they may wrongly assume that the message was only for their information
+
-
and someone else is supposed to act on in.
+
-
 
+
-
For groups that are too large to list everyone's names, use something like:
+
-
: Dear All,
+
-
This let's the reader know that they have to look elsewhere to figure out if they need to take action.
+
-
 
+
-
If no one need to take action, include "FYI" (For Your Information).
+
-
: Brett, FYI...
+
-
: FYI...
+
-
 
+
-
