Introduction to Business Emails with a Fairy Tale Twist
Once upon a time, in a kingdom filled with enchanted forests and talking animals, a young merchant named Ella sought to send a formal message to a noble prince. She wanted to inquire about a special delivery of magical goods. Ella decided to write an email—from her humble shop to the prince’s castle—using polite language, clear details, and a respectful tone. Just as fairy tales often begin with 'Once upon a time,' a professional email begins with a greeting and an opening line that sets the purpose. The message must be concise, respectful, and include a call to action, much like a quest in a story where each step is carefully planned. Think about how tone and structure shape the understanding of a story—or a business message. Now, consider how Ella’s email would look if she wanted to request a meeting with the prince to discuss a new trade agreement.
