Finishing an email effectively depends on the tone, purpose, and recipient of your message. Here are some common ways to close an email, along with tips:
How to Finish an Email
1. Use a Polite Closing Phrase
Choose a closing phrase that matches the formality of your email:
- Formal:
- Sincerely,
- Best regards,
- Kind regards,
- Yours faithfully, (if you started with "Dear Sir/Madam")
- Yours sincerely, (if you started with a name)
- Semi-formal:
- Best,
- Regards,
- Many thanks,
- Thank you,
- Informal:
- Cheers,
- Thanks,
- Take care,
- All the best,
2. Add Your Name
After your closing phrase, include your name. For professional emails, also add your job title, company, and contact info if relevant. Example:
Best regards,
Jane Smith
Marketing Manager
ABC Company
[email protected]
(123) 456-7890
3. Optional: Add a Call to Action or Final Thought
Before the closing phrase, you might want to include a sentence that wraps up your message or invites a response. Example:
- "Please let me know if you have any questions."
- "Looking forward to your reply."
- "Thank you for your time and consideration."
