“Please Let Me Know”

 

 

For a change of pace, since we’re all busy, how about a little grammar suggestion?

Do you ever end an email with, “Please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any questions or need further clarification.”?

To impress your clients and co-workers, keep your sign-off crisp and friendly. So… First, drop “do not hesitate to”; it means nothing; same for “any.” Second, remove the repetition: we ask questions because we need clarification; if we need clarification, we ask questions. Third, put the conditional clause at the beginning of the sentence. And thus we have:

“If you have questions, please let me know.”

Good morning Joe. Guilty as charge for many years!  Finally got to the point where I just ended correspondence and let the people decide their next step. Took years! Enjoy your day.
