When people I do business with communicate with me and are polite, it makes me want to work with them so much more than people who are rude.

The rude ones? Well it is tough for me to deal with them.

Now that email and texts have turned into the most popular form of communication and our lives are joined at the hip, most of us feel overwhelmed by the amount of emails we get every day+ texts+ social media messages; it could make anyone lose it from time to time.

I get about 200 emails a day and it is a bit overwhelming.

Many of the emails I get start like this, with no greeting whatsoever-

Is this available?

Can you show?

Do you have offers?

Email me……..

Maybe I am just a sensitive guy, but it takes about 3 extra seconds to be polite in an email…..like this.

Hi Paul,

Hope all is well.

So here are some nice additions for you to add to your communications:

Please….

Hi…..

Thank you…..

How are you?

I hope you are well…..

I appreciate your help…..

The moral of the story is……..life is too short to be rude…..

Being polite is a nice thing!
