Getting the green light on a project often comes down to a clear and direct approval assignment email. It’s the simple step that moves your work forward.
We’ve put together five templates to help you get that "yes" without the back-and-forth. Referring to a template takes the guesswork out of what to write, so you can send your request with confidence.
