Instant English 5 Easy Steps to Write Business Emails in English
Instant English 5 Easy Steps to Write Business Emails in English takes a work email through five stages, published on the Instant English YouTube channel. The lesson gives the common phrases that make an email sound professional, from the greeting and the reason for writing through to the request and the sign-off.

How It Helps Your Business English
The video runs about four and a half minutes and breaks a business email into five steps, with the phrases that fit each one: the greeting, the opening that says why you are writing, the main message, the request or next step, and the closing. The teacher shows each phrase on screen as she says it.
You can follow the five steps the next time you write at work, taking one phrase from each to build the email quickly. You can pause on the screen text to copy the phrases into a list of your own, and come back to the video when an email you have drafted reads as too direct or too casual.
