Do you know this toxic emailer? Copy Happy Harry

Harry loves email. It is fast, inexpensive, and he can add anyone and everyone who might have even a smidge of interest in his topic or project, and it doesn’t cost him a dime!  So he does.

He has group lists, he has a huge database of… everyone.  And he uses it.

Although Harry thinks this practice doesn’t cost anything, it does.  Everytime a recipient has to open an unnecessary email, it costs the company money.  And most of them will respond to Harry, so it costs Harry more time.

Harry’s Antidote:  Copy ONLY those people who really need to receive the information.
