BIGG Tip of the Week: How to Write a Persuasive Email: Start with the conclusion. Example: There’s an opening at your company. Don’t start the email to your boss with: I’m emailing about the new position. Do start with: I would like you to consider me for this position. Then, use bullet-point facts to show why you’re qualified. Finally, request a meeting to discuss it further. Get to the point for your BIGG Success. Get more tips from BIGG Success here
