Email & Texting

Here are ways to make your email and text messaging more effective, while demonstrating your professionalism:

1. Email is still written communication and that means complete sentences are required. Spelling and grammar count so always use the spell check/grammar feature on your computer before you hit the “send” button.
    
2. Short, concise emails are best. Organize your thought and write short sentences and short paragraphs. Do a quick read before sending to make sure the meaning and tone are what you wish to convey.
    
3. Create a subject line that summarizes your message. This facilitates the initial review or later retrieval of massages.
    
4.  Don’t send messages to people who don’t need to receive them. Carefully select the intended audience for your message.
