Attract the attension of your email readers

This is a small blog how to write emails that attract the attension of the reader.

Meaningful subject

Keep your subject of your email briefly, as a clear sentence that contains the core of your message. The recipient of your email can than filter and better prioritizing it.

Subject as memo

You can use a memo in the subject such as 'Employe John Doe is ill for this week'. You can tag the subject with 'eom'(end of message) that signal the reader that he does not have to open the email for reading. The benefit of this technic is precise information can be viewed in on one look.

CC and BCC 

Use the field CC and BCC in your email in moderation. CC is a copy for notice and are visible for the recipient. BCC is a blind copy for notice that is invisible for the recipient. There are very useful if you want to send to a big group of recipient. But you have to consider if all of your recipient group should get the email, and if the recipient knows what to do with the email.
