An interactive exploration of how to write emails that work
How to ensure your emails hit the mark every time, and have the impact you need them to have.
Despite it having been in general use for over 30 years, email remains one of the most common ways for people to communicate in the business world. Unfortunately, it is also one of the most over-used, and most poorly-used communication media. We all get too many emails (thank you to all those people who like to "reply all" in their responses!) and it's all too easy for important messages to get lost in over-crowded inboxes.
In this high-impact, interactive course, you'll learn how different people receive emails in different ways, and how to modify your approach to ensure that the email gets noticed, read and acted-upon, whoever the recipient is.

Employees who would like to make their emails more impactful, to get the responses they need from emails, and who could use a little help structuring messages.
With our history in sales training and consulting, we know the impact that needs to be made with emails - if an email goes to a client with important information which isn't properly received or understood, that could result in lost revenue for the organisation. But what about internal emails? Or emails to suppliers? Many people overlook these, but at Navanter Knowledge Bites, we recognise the value in bringing these best practices to anyone who sends emails which need to be understood.
During this course, we bring established best practice, and our own unique insights, to anyone who needs to write emails which have greater impact, and achieve the purpose for which they're written.
