Email Needs to Be Accurate
Communicating effectively via email is important because it is the fastest way to communicate in writing today. Use these email suggestions to make the most of your communications.
Instructions
1. #1 - Treat all your emails as if they will last forever because they do even after you delete them though you don't see it or realize it.
#2 - Use topics to title your emails because it makes it easier to sort, retrieve and view.
#3 - Re-title your subject line versus automatically hitting reply if the email changes subjects.
2. #4 - Never hit the send button when you are angry or upset. You may regret it and like the spoken word, once you hit sent, it has been said so to speak.

3. #8 - Make sure all of your contact information is current and always include a telephone number.
#9 - Incorporate an automatic signature block with your address, phone number, email address, etc.
