How to See If Your Sent Emails Are Actually Being Read

Sending an email shouldn’t feel like throwing a message into a black hole. Even before you get a reply, it is helpful to know if your email was even read by the recipient. With email read receipts, the curtain is pulled back and you no longer have to wonder if your message found its way to the right set of eyes.

Knowing whether or not a recipient read your email can be very helpful when it comes to crafting follow ups. Imagine sending an email on Friday and knowing if it was or wasn’t read over the weekend. Unless you want more unknowns in your life this is definitely a Gmail feature you should be utilizing.
