Email sign-offs

A sign-off is the way you finish an email, the few words before your signature. It can also be applied to other contexts, not just emails, but videos, like in TV journalism. 

According to this 2018 article by Inc, an American business online media outlet that is "dedicated exclusively to owners and managers of growing private companies, with the aim to deliver real solutions for today's innovative company builders", the most common sign offs are : 

1. "Thanks in advance"    65.7 %
2. "Thanks"    63 %
3. "Thank you"    57.9 %
4. "Cheers"    54.4 %
5. "Kind regards"    53.9 %
6. "Regards"    53.5 %
7. "Best regards"    52.9 % 
8. "Best"    51.1 %

As it realizes itself that "'Sincerely,' the word I was taught to use in elementary school when we learned to write letters, has clearly died a horrible death", it lets us know what's most popular nowadays, and helps us to forget those old, "too formal" expressions we learned in school. By the way, as for greetings, "Dear X" is one of those, it's not that used anymore. 

This article does a decent job of categorizing over 50 sign-offs to suit your email's style or context. 

If you want to know more expressions you can use to sign off your emails, google (or ecosia, as is my preference) is your friend, as always. You don't need me to find this information for you :)
