Best Practices

Be Specific

Less effective: "Send an email" More effective: "Draft an email to Sarah about rescheduling our call to next Tuesday"

Include Context

Less effective: "Follow up" More effective: "Draft a follow-up email to John about the proposal I sent last week"

Use Names

Dew knows your contacts. Use their names for better results.

Iterate

If the first response isn't right, ask Dew to adjust:

  • "Make it shorter"
  • "More formal"
  • "Add a call to action"
