I have always written my emails as conversational. They are less likely to get thrown in the trash folder and deleted.

I actually did a test between the two. My conversational emails were opened more frequently than a sale email, which alot of the top internet marketers love to do.

Your shield is just not up with a friendlier email. As people see more and more frequently that you are talking to them as a “person”, not a “prospect”, you have gained their attention. And in the future, a response and a sale.

I don’t know any other way to reach you to let you know that I have been unable to open your latest email. Something seems to be wrong with just the email since I am able to reach your web site.

I think in a business setting that emails should be formal, but so many conversations are going on by email outside of business, meaning that the formality is not there. Now I don’t think this is a bad thing, but it could lead more and more people to use relaxed language and ‘text speak’ in further email conversations in the future.

I believe that formal writing is needed in a formal setting, but if you are communication with friends and family then a relaxed approach is just fine.

I believe said does not have to be an audible statement. I apply it to any communication.
