How Do You Close Your Emails? - Great Article from NY Times

I loved this article from this morning's New York Times (thanks so much to Merci New York for posting the link on twitter!) Email sign-offs tend to be a loaded topic -- I personally have closed emails and letters for YEARS either Love or XOXO to friends, boyfriends, family alike. Though in recent years I've wondered if I shouldn't sign off "XOXO" to male friends or acquaintances lest they get the wrong idea.

For business emails, I don't have a signature sign-off -- I know many people in the wedding industry do - including one of my coaches who signs off with "Wedding Love and Hugs". In business I find that I usually default to "Thanks!" or sometimes "Kind regards", or even "Look forward to hearing from you soon".

I CRINGE anytime someone ends an email with "Take care" -- to me that sounds like something you say to someone you'll never see again. I love that one of people who commented on the article suggested signing off with "Carpe Vino".

How do you close your emails?
