Subject Line. The subject line is the first part of the email your reader sees. It can determine whether your reader opens the email. Most experts agree that subject lines should be short (six to ten words) and specific.
Salutation. The salutation is how you greet the reader. It's important that you understand whether you are addressing a formal or informal audience.
Body Text. The body text conveys the main message of the email. It should also include an introduction and conclusion. It should be written in short paragraphs of one to two sentences. Where it will add clarity, use bulleted or numbered lists.
Signature. Your signature can be formal or informal, depending on your audience. A good email signature template helps your reader find all the information about you that they need.
