前两天给大家说了开发信的相关干货,那么今天就再进阶的给大家说说邮件,我们写邮件给客户的目的是更有效地交流信息,在如今的工作环境下,也要注重快速和高效,大家在阅读邮件和其他商务文件的时间都很有限,就好像开发信,如果太过冗长繁琐的话,一下就会被投入垃圾箱,通过运用直白的英语表达,更能够确保你写的东西表达明确、容易理解。其实写邮件的时候只要记住“3C”原则,写出来的邮件更容易让人产生阅读兴趣:
1. Deliver a Clear message
要传达一个Clear(清楚)的信息
2. Use Correct grammar, vocabulary and punctuation
使用Correct(正确)的语法,词汇和标点符号
3. Be Concise
表述要Concise(简洁)
尽可能使用更短更简单的词,比如用“buy”代替“purchase”,要记住重点在于更有效的传达信息,而不是整篇邮件就是为了展示你丰富的词汇量,难免有炫技之疑,而且并非所有客户都是以英语为母语的国家,确保每句话在20个单词以下,用分段来组织你的信息,用更简单的句型和清晰的组织来使你写的东西更易读。
以下提供以下常见的同义词,在写邮件的时候可以替换使用,尽量选择更简单的表达方式,越简单明了的东西,越能显现一个人的水平。
