What are your thoughts on this closing line in emails? What alternatives do you use?
I find myself using it regularly, but I feel like a douche or something when I do use it because I'm not Australian, I never say it IRL, and it just seems totally cliche. Just like how I hate myself just a bit because I don't have a nice pair of black shoes and resort to wearing sketchers-style lace ups or kenneth-cole squared-toes in my business-casual office.
I use it in instances where you don't have a reason to thank the recipient (e.g. you are providing information and not them to you), and where it's too casual to say 'Regards.' Or if its out of context to say "let me know if you have any questions."
It's too cheesy to say "best wishes" or "have a nice day."
And you don't just want to end it off abruptly with your name.
Thoughts? Advice?
Thanks a lot, have a nice day and best wishes to you! Don't hesitate to reply if you have any additional questions, I'd be happy to answer. Regards,
-nick.
