Avoid statements like it’s nice to e-meet you when meeting someone over email or other forms of electronic communication (e.g., Slack, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams).
Instead, you can start an email or instant message with it’s nice to meet you. These variations also work well.
It’s great to connect with you.
I’m so glad to finally meet you.
It’s an honor to meet you.
Phrases like “e-meet” or “nice to virtually meet you” are unnecessary because the audience already knows that the correspondence is digital.
When you’re meeting someone for the first time over email, grammar is also important. QuillBot’s free Grammar Checker can help you avoid mistakes.
