How to Follow Up on Unanswered Emails Professionally

Five emails and no reply? Learn how to follow up politely and professionally in English.

Sending email after email without a reply is frustrating, and you might feel like writing Hey, just checking if you've opened my last five emails. Not sure if they landed in your inbox or a black hole. Would love an answer this decade. In this short and funny video, you will see how to transform this sarcastic message into polite, professional English. Instead of the first line, write Dear followed by the name, I wanted to kindly follow up regarding my previous messages. Instead of the black hole joke, say Perhaps my earlier emails didn't come through, please let me know if you received them. Instead of Would love an answer this decade, use I'd really appreciate your feedback at your earliest convenience. And instead of Cheers, finish with Kind regards. The professional version gives the other person an easy excuse, suggesting the emails might not have arrived, which helps them reply without feeling embarrassed. Phrases like kindly follow up, didn't come through and at your earliest convenience are very useful for chasing replies from clients, recruiters and partners. Watch the video, compare the casual and professional versions, and repeat the phrases out loud. Next time you are ignored, you will follow up politely and professionally.
