## Who Are You Writing to?

The first step to writing a good email is to know your audience. Who are you writing to? What are they interested in? What do you want to say to them? How can you make them want to read your email? What are you trying to accomplish? What is your goal in writing this email? Who is your target audience? Who are the people you are sending this email to? Who do you think will be interested in what you have to say? Who will be able to help you achieve your goal? For example, if you are trying to get a job, you may want to send your email to the person who is in charge of hiring new employees. Or if you want a raise, you might want to write to your boss. What is the purpose of your email message? Is it to inform, to persuade, to sell, or to ask for something? What would you like to get out of your message? What information do you need in order to make a decision?

How will you know if your message is successful? What will you do if it is not successful? How do you know when your message has been received and understood by your audience? What actions have you taken as a result of the email you sent?
