问答题{{B}}Business Email{{/B}}
Through the decades the way we communicate in business has changed considerably. From the time of the pony express in 1860 to our present day in age, we now can instantly deliver an electronic message to anywhere, with just a click of a button. Now It is almost unheard of to do business without using e-mail, since this is one of the easiest ways to maintain contact with employees and clients. Whether you need approval to move forward on a project, or you simply need to announce a meeting, e-mail is the most common form of communication between business people.
E-mial quickly sends information to individuals at any hour of the day or night. All you need is an Internet connection. It is effective in providing quick answers and in finding the right person in an organnisation or company to answer your questions. What's more, E-mails provide privacy when you can't speak about confidential information out loud. Also it can be used as a marketing tool. When used within the guidelines of the law, sending e-mails to generate business is a cost-effective marketing practice.
Ten top tips:
1. Use a clear title
2. Keep language simple
3. Watch your tone
4. Don't use text language or emotions
5. Use capital letters where necessary
6. Keep attachments small
7. Use an appropriate email address
8. Use an appropriate signature
9. Check spelling and grammar
10. Read it again before sending
