비지니스 이메일_5차_Checking Progress

1. 4 Primary objectives for a follow-up e-mail

- Work-related communication with colleagues
  (동료와의 업무에 대한 소통, 동료와의 업무 진행 확인 필요시)
- Communication with supervisors
  (상사와의 소통, 상사의 확인 또는 지시가 필요한데 이메일 답신이 없을 시)
- Meeting request(미팅 요청, 미팅 관련 답신이 없을 때)
- 장기적인 관점에서 관계를 유지해야 할 때

2. To Requesting status update(진행상태를 확인하기 위한것)

Ask for an update politely and directly
 - Start in context -> 확인 요청을 하는 상황적인 설명을 곁들이면 이목을 끌기 좋음

예문1   I would like to hear how things are going with the A project. 예문2  Could you give me a quick status update by the end of the day? 예문3  It was great talking to you about branding strategies over lunch the other day. It occurred to me this morning that you said you would put together a list of ideas for further brainstorming. My boss seems to care about branding so much these days, and I would love to get your input. Have you ever had a moment to write down your ideas?

 - Send a friendly reminder

예문4 If your inbox is like mine, it is probably flooded with many requesting e-mails. I just wanted to make sure that our meeting on this Friday is still valid. Please let me know if you need to reschedule.

 

3. To maintain a Connection (관계 유지를 위한것)

Offer something useful as a lead-in

예문5 Are you still looking for a new opportunity to network and create business connections in the IT area? I know a person who can provide you with some industry information and local contacts. Do you have a few minutes on Friday at 4 pm to talk about it?

예문6 I read your post that says, "Having a great idea and assembling a team to bring that concept to life is the first step in creating a successful business venture" I like what you had to say about how important it is to create trust within a team. That's the philosophy I have pursued for years. I would like to talk more about it with you over coffee this week. Are you available Wednesday around 3 pm?
