Email etiquette is “the principles of behavior one should use when writing or responding to electronic messages” (What). That being said, it is essential to be as clear as possible so that other readers can understand. A miscommunication due to the use of unclear words or the way things were said can have a huge impact on professionalism and damage a company's reputation. Email etiquette is important to know because it can show that a worker has professional skills. Email etiquette can range from “Be concise and to the point, use proper spelling, grammar and punctuation, do not write in capital letters, and read the email before sending” (Why). These are just a few simple skills that many workers don't perform well on a daily basis. As a worker, this can harm a business in many ways. Even though these skills seem simple, they are missed every time.
