email Riminders How many how often is just right?

[Its Me]

Email, we all use it and have come to rely on it for setting up meetings and getting out information.

 

 

For an up comming meeting or event what and when is the right amount of emails? Is a week in advance too early. Are two in one week for the same event too many?

I try to not send out more than one e-mail per week. If I have several reminders to give, I try to group them all into one e-mail.

 

I find there are three types of e-mail users.

1) Those, like me, who virtually live on e-mail and will likely read it within a few hours.

2) Those who check it every day or so. They will typically get it and respond if necessary.

3) Those who check e-mail when they remember. Sometimes weeks go by. These people often forget their e-mail address or passwords. They may change their e-mail address and do not tell anyone. You didn't know it wasn't getting to them, because they never responded to them in the past anyway.
