Ten "tricks" to attract attention
Whatever the reason why you want to grab your recipient's attention, we have the right suggestion for you.
Because when something starts well, you want to keep going to see where it takes you..
See below some email introductions that will get you the answer you're looking for, according to a Business Insider article.
1. "I have good news for you..."
Everyone loves good news. So why not highlight it?
2. "I have an answer for you..."
Start your text with a confirmation that you have found the answer to what you were looking for.
3. "I'll be honest with you..."
This phrase means that you will get to the point and not keep anything hidden. It is important to emphasize this, because otherwise the "chatter" can confuse some people.
4. "We have been launched..."
It may sound like space jargon, but this particular opening phrase is a good and positive beginning and is a good harbinger for any explanation/justification that follows.
5. "Urgent..."
You state with determination and certainty that what you are about to say is actually something very important. It certainly "catches" attention.
6. "Let me start with an apology..."
It shows the recipient that the content of the message is about a mistake, not made by them, but by you.
7. “I’ll make your day with this…”
When a message promises to improve someone's day, the only sure thing is that it will... be read.
8. "I completed my research..."
Anything that can provide additional information – especially in the workplace – is useful and welcome.
9. “The rumors turned out to be true…”
You may not even know what the sender is referring to, but as the recipient you will definitely be tempted to find out what exactly it is about.
10. “Following our previous communication…”
It is a simple technique, often used, precisely because it is very effective.
