Close your emails with an expression of gratitude and you'll boost the chance of response by 36%, according to a study by Boomerang.
While there are lots of ways to say "thanks," the software company sampled the closings in 350,000 emails and concluded these three expressions are the top performers:
- Thanks in advance garners a 65.7% response
- Thanks garners a 63% response
- Thank you garners a 57.9% response
But the above three work best.
