According To This Study, Men Wish They Sound More Casual In Their Emails, While Women Wish They Sound More Confident

One of the most casual and common email greetings is saying ‘Hi’ or ‘Hello’ before the recipient’s name. 

When it comes to sign-offs, the most used and most casual is a simple ‘Thanks.’ Surprisingly, the email sign-off that was considered to be one of the coldest was ‘Respectfully.’ This is interesting, considering it implies respect for the recipient. 

Are there any sayings or features in an email that really bug you? Large numbers of the study’s participants all agreed on certain things.

For example, 51% of people said that people should stop including the ‘Sent from iPhone’ line at the bottom of their emails.

If you do send emails from your iPhone, maybe you should turn off that feature or just be sure to delete it!

Additionally, 42% of people feel that using emojis or emoticons is never appropriate in work emails. Do any of your coworkers use emojis?

The next time you compose an email, it might be a good idea to keep these statistics in mind. Of course, many would argue that our in-person interactions matter most at the end of the day, but perhaps it’s time we hold email etiquette up to a higher standard.
