Business E-mail Attachment Reminder

Technology is a wonderful thing — when used properly with knowledge, understanding and courtesy. Unfortunately all too often it is used as a crutch without thought or courtesy to the other side and to cater to what we are unwilling to do otherwise.

Like sending numerous 10M attachments (sometimes outside of business hours) because that is convenient for you. PDF files, images, Excel files are many times larger than the Sender realizes. This reflects how many have not yet learned just enough to understand how sending all those large files/photos all at once can shutdown the other side’s inbox.

There are just a few considerations everyone needs to be aware of when it comes to attaching files to your business e-mails. By being cognizant of these important issues you will reflect an understanding of the technology you are participating in (tech savvy) and that you have consideration for those you communicate with.

When it comes to attachments many just attach because that is what they want to do or what is convenient at that given moment. Not cool considering e-mail is not all about you; your e-mail involves the party or parties on the other side.
