By. Jocelyn Soriano, Reedsy
By far the most comprehensive book I read on email writing and management backed by research, experience and a wide variety of applications.
"Writing Professional Emails: The Step-by-Step Guide" written by Michelle Swann is by far the best and most comprehensive book I have ever read about writing professional emails! Complete, straightforward and logically outlined, this is indeed the most helpful step-by-step guide you can find when it comes to email writing and management.
Reading this book will drastically improve your ability to write an effective email depending on the type of email you are writing and the person you're writing to.
Backed by research, personal experience and varying perspectives, people from all walks of life can learn from the vast resources offered by this book.
I wish I have read this sooner before I sent all those emails that could have spoken better about me.
I highly recommend this book to everyone who would like to gain this indispensable skill of writing effective and efficient emails. This is definitely worth the time and money you're going to spend in exchange for the priceless value of presenting yourself and your message well online.

From the Author

As the author of this book,  I hope very much you will benefit from all the research I did on the topic of writing professional emails. I put a lot of work into this book as I wanted to 'get it right' and read a lot on the subject of writing professional emails. Email is an everyday part of our life that can, unfortunately, cause stress if not handled properly. My goal was to help eliminate email stress from people's lives. Email is here to stay and won't be replaced with another communication channel in our life time so it is worth putting some effort into how to write clear and concise emails that are to the point and actionable. Enjoy reading the book and I wish you all the best with your email writing endeavours,

    5.0 out of 5 stars Really helped me.

    This book is very easy to read and informative. It covers all the bases regarding professional email writing and more. The book gives step by step instructions of how to write a professional email. It reminded me to think before I write, organize my writing logically and use paragraphs and transitional phrases. The book talks about how to write to specific audiences and how to write emails that have a positive tone or voice. I especially liked the chapters on emotional and cultural intelligence as they help specify how to write to people with different personality types and diverse cultural backgrounds. The part about writing emails to low vs. high context culture readers was very helpful. I also liked the last chapter which helps you manage your inbox using rules and folders. I am getting down to inbox zero because of the book. I would recommend this book to anyone who writes emails. As the book states, most people think they are good at writing emails but studies show that most people lack email writing skills, send mixed or confusing messages and write emails that leave a bad feeling.
