How to Send a Proper Message
I receive numerous messages daily, but I do not always respond to all of them for various reasons.
When reaching out to someone for the first time, especially if you are not already acquainted, courtesy demands that you introduce yourself and provide some context about where you are from.
Messages such as “Hi,” “Hello,” “How are you?” “You are beautiful,” or “Send me your WhatsApp number, I want to discuss with you” often go unanswered. These types of messages come across as vague, informal, and lacking clear communication.
To increase the likelihood of getting a response, structure your message properly. Here’s an example of an effective introduction:
Subject: Inquiry About Migration to Canada
Hello,
My name is Ijeoma Okey, and I am from Abia State, Nigeria.
I have been following your content and found it very insightful. I am currently exploring the best pathway to migrate to Canada and would appreciate any guidance you can provide. While I have watched some of your videos, I still have a few questions and would love some clarification.
I would truly appreciate any response at your convenience.
Thank you for your time.
Best regards,
Ijeoma Okey
