Practice with ECHO App โFrequently Asked Questions
Q. What is the difference between "sama" and "gochu"?
A. When addressing an individual, use ``Mr.'' and when addressing a company or department, use ``Ochu.'' Examples: ``Mr. Taro Yamada'' and ``Thank you to the sales department.'' It is no good to wear both.
Q. How soon should I send a reply?
A. As a general rule, business emails are sent within 24 hours. If you cannot answer immediately, it is good etiquette to let them know by saying, ``I will check and get back to you.''
Q. What is the difference between CC and BCC?
A. CC=Share information with related parties (all can see the address), BCC=Hide information between recipients (does not display). Use BCC for mass sending.
Q. What should I include in my signature?
A. Name, company name, department name, address, telephone, email, company URL. Avoid footer images and long self-promotions and keep it simple.
Q. Should I write both English and Japanese?
A. OK if the other person is an English speaker. However, only Japanese is natural for Japanese business partners, and only English is natural for overseas business partners.
