Email Types

Thank You + Recap

After a productive meeting:

• Express appreciation

• Confirm next steps

Commitment Confirmation

• Clearly state what each party committed to
• Include deadlines
• Suggest follow-up touchpoint

• Offer availability

Re-engagement

After time has passed:

Tone Calibration

Based on relationship:

• New relationship: More formal, clear context
• Established: Warmer, can be briefer
• Client: Professional, confirm value
• Peer: Conversational, mutual respect
• Mentor/Senior: Appreciative, respectful

Based on meeting outcome:

• Positive: Enthusiastic, forward-looking
• Neutral: Professional, clear next steps
• Challenging: Diplomatic, solution-focused

Length

• Keep short: 100-200 words
• Get to the point quickly
• One clear ask or next step
• Easy to respond to

Common Patterns

"Great to meet you"

For first-time meetings, new relationships

"Thanks for your time"

For meetings where they gave valuable input

"Following up on our discussion"

For ongoing conversations

"Wanted to confirm"

When specific commitments need clarity

Safety Note

I'll draft the email and show it to you. I will NOT send anything without your explicit approval.
