It is easier to
understand what type
of email it is if I give
more details.
As an example, one
email explains that
the delivery of the
board is two weeks
late due to a delayed
transfer payment to
the factory but as
soon as the transfer is
completed, the
boards will be
shipped to Shanghai
Airport and then by
air to each customer.

No quotes in the first

By knowing his
audience, Johannes
figured out the best
way to communicate
with them is through
an intuitive style of
communication

give more evidence

quote from a second
email to give more
examples.

throughout the paper.
By looking at how
Johannes is adapting
his writing style,
providing credibility,
and identifying his
audience, he show
how the structure of
his message is
important to better
apply to his audience
which will ease the
understanding of his
communication.
The importance of a
narrow topic is
essential and I
believe Maxs
suggestion did
improve the overall
structure of the
paper.
