<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi <span
style="border-collapse:collapse">Un-Ai,</span><br>
<br>
some tips about how to make things look like spam, and on writing
a professional email.<br>
In priority particular order.<br>
<br>
<br>
1. Have good subject lines. This is the only part of your email
most people will read: A better subject line would be "Member
Signup software, by Student Services Australia"<br>
<span style="border-collapse:collapse"><br>
2. Don't use a gmail email address. Ideally a organization email
address. Since Student Services Australia owns the
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.studentservices.com.au/">http://www.studentservices.com.au/</a> domain. They should be able
to provide you with a <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:unai.jo@studentservices.com.au">unai.jo@studentservices.com.au</a>. or a
@joinform address.<br>
If not, then at least use a corporation email, such as a student
email.</span><br>
<br>
3. Consider tone. "haha", "ya" vs "you", "+" vs "and"<br>
<br>
4. Don't stretch words. No Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeekkkkkk.<br>
<br>
5. Don't use multiple exclamation marks. <br>
<i>"Multiple exclamation marks," he went on, shaking his head,
"are a sure
sign of a diseased mind."</i> - ReaperMan/ Eric, Terry
Pratchett,<br>
<br>
6. Have a signature. Eg <br>
Un-Ai Jo<br>
Project Liaison "Join Form"<br>
<span style="border-collapse:collapse">Student Services Australia<br>
</span><br>
7. Don't start your subject likes with the word Re, this looks
like it is a response which will mess with people's mail sorting
(mentally, or through software).<br>
<br>
Just some tips, that I hope will serve you well, thoughout the
long life of sending emails ,<br>
we all have ahead of us.<br>
Feel free to ignore this.<br>
<br>
May I publish your email (and this discussion) on to my website,
that others may learn.<br>
It already on the Unisfa-committee semi-public archives (only
available to anyone who joins the list, which is free and
automated.)<br>
<br>
<span style="border-collapse:collapse">I may or may not look at
recommending your software to the clubs I am involved in<br>
(We'll see once I look at the website).<br>

Kind Regards<br>
