Singin' the Email Blues
Please allow me a few moments to rant about proper email usage. I have written in the past about it, but apparently nobody read my emails.I have burrowed into my (admittedly disorganized, non-foldered) email list in the past to try to find a particular one, only to see that it didn't have a subject line, which is why I couldn't find it, or it doesn't have the person's current phone number on it, so I have to go elsewhere to find him, and then I find that another email didn't answer all of my questions, so I have to email her again.
Not that I haven't been guilty of hitting the "send" button too soon, before double-checking that the attachment was there. At least it doesn't happen as often now as it did when I first started sending them as attachments 25 years ago (oops, did I just tell you my age? Please disregard).
Val Nelson is a good writer, a good coach, and a good mentor from one of my women's groups. Take her "E-tiquette Quiz" on email usage and tell me how you do. While you are there, read some of her other helpful tips on blogging and email marketing, too.
I have the worst habit of rushing through an e-mail response and hitting send before I attach what I need to. Always doubling my e-mails.

Thanks for commenting, Kevin. What I do now is attach things first before I even type the message--it helps!
