interestingly, it did not mention the design and SOW defining supports, I thought it would be the most critical step? maybe this was a general sales passage and content had to be generalized any way.

汗到不至于。不过我真觉得这个hey字不好。你虽然力求informal,但是这封信本质上仍然是一封严肃的business letter,那个hey字损害了这种严肃性。我觉得hey字buddy之间还可以用,同事之间都有点怪,何况跟客户。

受不了,说几句我的资历是:大学2年过的4,6级,有外教,马马虎虎过。2001年到TORONTO,英语一塌糊涂。2007-2008年的MBA是飞越。至今还是半塌糊涂。
我LG的学历是:Ph.D. 英语自称好过我。
我的口语好,他的结构好。我写作软,他的强硬些。
我的理解是几个词,几个句,那都是白扯。STRUCTURE & ARCHITECTURE, ORGANIZATION, FULLNESS OF MEANING, ACCURATE AND CLEAR INFORMATION, 作者的态度和PRESENTATION,这些是 KEYS。至于你 HEY 我 HELLO,在 BUSINESS 中,只有不顾大局的人才会刻意追求。
共勉。

Regardless, I always use 1) strangers - (Dear) Mr. (or Ms.) whowhowho. 2) close friends, biz partners - call first name. 3) I rarely, almost never, call the name but have a hey, hello, etc. in any of written content.

无意中看到名ID与客户的通信,谁实话有点儿吃惊。我的工作也经常需要与客户沟通。虽说我的英语一般,可除非是对自己同事,从来没称呼过客户Guys,也没有被客户这么称呼过,不排除你们已经铁得像哥们一样不分彼此了。您这个HEY也不常见,多是Hi Mike。技术上不懂,总体感觉非常Casual。商品是要包装的,是不是得稍微正式点儿吧。
