Stop Hitting Reply All: Here’s Why It Hurts Your Professional Emails

It’s raining emails!! !! ☔📩

Imagine this: you receive an email where you were copied. It’s addressed to 40 people in the company. And then… every single person hits “Reply All.”

I’ll let you do the maths! 😅

You might think saying “Thanks” or “Message received” is polite.
But it’s really not.

Before you hit “Reply All,” ask yourself two questions:
1️⃣ Why is this person receiving this email?
2️⃣ What do I want them to do after reading it?

If you don’t have clear answers… Don’t send it.

Here’s why:
❌ Clutters inboxes
❌ Wastes people’s time
❌ Can feel unprofessional in a corporate setting

Bottom line:
“Reply All” can be useful, but only if it truly adds value for everyone on the thread.
