Effective communication plays a crucial role in maintaining strong customer relationships. However, email-related problems can occasionally hinder the smooth flow of information. While there can be various causes for these issues, this article highlights a few common scenarios and their corresponding solutions.

Scenario: Customer email was entered incorrectly.

Scenario: The email was marked as spam.

Scenario: Email filtered to a promotions or secondary inbox tab.

  • Solution: Ask the recipient to check secondary inbox tabs. Gmail users should look in the Promotions tab — HomeGauge notification emails are frequently sorted there automatically. Outlook users should check the Focused and Other tabs. If found, they can move the email to their primary inbox and mark it as "Not Promotions" to prevent future filtering.

  • Solution: Have the customer look in their spam or junk folders.

Scenario: Customer's inbox is full.

  • Solution: Have the customer delete some old emails.

Scenario: Customer deleted notification (it does happen).

  • Solution: Re-send the report notification.

If all else fails, email them a PDF report (How to Upload, Print, or Save a Report).
