How to make an appointment by email in English
In many, if not most, instances email has replaced phone calls as the preferred method of making an appointment. This means that the ability to make an appointment by email is an important skill for those learning business English.
If you are making a first appointment and writing to someone you do not know be sure to give your background information and the reason for requesting an appointment.
Writing to someone, you do not know
If you do not know the person, you will need to give some background information about yourself or your company. Here are some examples that are typical business English conversations.
I am _________ (followed by company info if appropriate) and I would like to meet with you to discuss…
My name is _______ and I would like to schedule a convenient time to meet.
Be sure to request a semi-specific time; “next week”, “the week of October 1”, etc. This will make it easier for the person to check their schedule and typically will get you a response faster.
When writing an email to request an appointment be sure to think about who will be receiving the email. Basically, your email request will fall into three categories; formal, neutral, or informal.
Formal email examples:
I would like to arrange a suitable time and place to meet to discuss….
I would like to arrange an appointment to review…
Neutral email examples:
Could we met on Thursday to review
We should meet in the next few days to discuss…. When is a convenient time for you…
Informal email examples
Can we get together to talk about…
Do you have a few minutes tomorrow to discuss…
