\"Hoe<\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

    \r\n
  1. Ask yourself: is e-mail the best form of communication in this situation? Making a telephone call or having a personal conversation is often more appropriate.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n
  2. Stay away from emotion in an e-mail: anger, sarcasm and intimacy.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n
  3. Know that an e-mail is in black and white and can be effortlessly forwarded intentionally or unintentionally.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n
  4. Leave important e-mail for a moment. A day if possible. Read it again.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n
  5. Eliminate spelling mistakes and inaccuracies.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n
  6. A good e-mail is actually a letter, but not on paper.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n
  7. After the salutation a comma and two blank lines.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n
  8. The first sentence should preferably not start with 'I'. It's about the other person, the addressee, not you in the first place.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n
  9. Do not use abbreviations. These are not always clear and they date from the time when there was little space. In an e-mail there is all the place in the world. Use that place sparingly but completely.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n
  10. Enter the subject line to say what it is about. But also to attract attention and to stand out. 'Urgent' or 'Question' are not the best.\nUse blank lines.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n
  11. Use blank lines.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n
  12. Do not use capital letters. IT SEEMS LIKE YOU ARE YELLING or angry or at the fair. Be thrifty with irony and jokes.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n
  13. Don't write things you wouldn't put on a postcard.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n
  14. Don't ask for a read receipt unless you really need to. It seldom is.<\/li>\r\n
  15. Add your sender information. A fixed signature containing all your contact information is useful in this regard.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n
  16. Reply all e-mails within 24 hours. Or confirm receipt and report that you will reply later.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n
  17. Don't use acronyms, W8ff, lol, OMG! Emoticons are also not recommended. Unless you're under 6 or want to scare people off for good. It is also completely unclear what most of those things want to say.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n
  18. Much better than e-mailing: call, drop by, speak.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
