Most companies now have email facilities to allow them to email customers or suppliers. Many companies also use email in their day to day work to communicate with other members of staff.

This may seem odd as they are often sat within eye sight of the person they are email, but there are many reasons why some employers prefer their staff to contact each other using emails.

Often emails are linked in to a internal calendar where you can email another member of staff about a meeting and it will automatically add it to their diary, this can be very useful in a busy office where people are in and out all of the time. Another good reason to use email is that there is effectively a paper trail of what has been asked or agreed between two of more people. This can come in handy if ever there is a discrepancy about what has been disgusted.
