When you sit down to write out an email, do you agonize over what you’ll write? Chances are you don’t want to sound too excited or too bored, and you probably don’t want to sound like an idiot.

How do you close out your message? Is it “best regards,” “sincerely,” or simply “regards?” Do you even need that line? Will your message be taken out of context? Do you use emoticons when it’s a business mailing? How do you maintain that fine balance between casual and professional in an effort to get your point across while still looking like you know what you’re doing?
