Clear and unclear email examples

Too wordy

I was just wondering if you might maybe have a chance to look at the revised deck and send your thoughts when you get a chance. The ask is buried.

Clearer

Could you review the revised deck by Friday? The request is visible and easy to answer.

Dense

Hi Sarah, thanks for the update. I wanted to mention the deck, the budget, and the timeline all in one message because we need to keep things moving. The paragraph does too much work.

Better

Hi Sarah, Could you send the revised deck by Friday? That gives me time to review it before the client call.

Common mistakes

Watch for these traps

No contrast

Makes it harder to see which version gets the cleaner reply.

Too much setup

Buries the point before the reader gets to the request.

No next step

Leaves the draft open instead of actionable.

What works

This is what clear emails actually do:

Keep the request easy to find.
Use the same ask in clear and unclear versions to see the change.
Choose the version that scans fastest.
Check the draft before you hit send.
