HOW TO WRITE AN EMAIL

Summary from the TLDR Founders newsletter

Emails need to be clear so readers can understand the point in seconds, decide quickly, and forward the message without extra explanation. A good email makes the reader understand the point fast without trying to sound smart, warm, or impressive. Don't use emails for long back-and-forths - call or chat when speed matters more than recordkeeping, then send a short email summary with the decision. Make the next step obvious, so the receiver knows what to do.
