Email example: how to write an email<\/h2>\n\n

Before we look at business emails, let’s start with the basics. Here’s a simple email example between two people who work together:<\/p>\n\n

\n

From:<\/strong> Laura G\u00f3mez (laura.gomez@yourcompany.com)To:<\/strong> Carlos Ruiz (carlos.ruiz@yourcompany.com)Subject:<\/strong> Thursday’s meeting: time change<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hi Carlos,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m writing to let you know that Thursday’s meeting with the sales team has moved from 10:00 to 12:00, in the same room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve attached the agenda. If you can’t make it at that time, let me know and we’ll find another slot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best regards,Laura G\u00f3mezMarketing Manager<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

Short as it is, this email has every part an email needs:<\/p>\n\n

Email address examples<\/h2>\n\n

An email address always has three parts: the username, the @ sign and the domain. For example, in firstname.lastname@gmail.com<\/em>, “firstname.lastname” is the username and “gmail.com” is the domain.<\/p>\n\n

These are the most common types of address, with an example of each:<\/p>\n\n

Type<\/th>Example<\/th>What it’s used for<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
Personal<\/td>firstname.lastname@gmail.com<\/td>Personal use, with a free provider such as Gmail or Outlook<\/td><\/tr>
Personal with a number<\/td>firstname.lastname85@outlook.com<\/td>When the name is already taken at the provider<\/td><\/tr>
Corporate<\/td>name@yourcompany.com<\/td>Each person’s work email, on the company’s domain<\/td><\/tr>
Role or department<\/td>info@yourcompany.com, sales@yourcompany.com<\/td>Mailboxes managed by a team rather than a single person<\/td><\/tr>
Alias with +<\/td>name+invoices@gmail.com<\/td>Sorting the mail that arrives in the same account<\/td><\/tr>
For campaigns<\/td>hello@yourcompany.com<\/td>Sending newsletters and promotions from an address that accepts replies<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n
\"Email<\/figure>\n\n

To send business emails, it’s best to use a corporate email<\/a> address on your own domain, which inspires more trust than a free account. Even better if it’s an address that accepts replies, for the reasons we explain in our guide to noreply emails<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n

Key Point to Keep in Mind Before Looking at Email Examples<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

To reach your audience without being intrusive, it’s best to balance selling with something else for the user: entertainment, value, trust\u2026 When writing, keep two principles in mind for every type of email:<\/p>\n\n
