Do English business emails need a seasonal greeting?

No. Formal seasonal greetings are mainly an East Asian convention: Japanese letters open with a set phrase for each month (jikō no aisatsu), and Korean and Chinese business letters have similar customs. In American business email, a seasonal line is optional. Used well, one short sentence adds warmth to a newsletter, a thank-you or a seasonal update. In routine emails, get straight to the point.

Seasonal opener ideas through the year

• Winter (Dec–Feb): "As the year winds down, thank you for being with us." / "We hope the new year is off to a good start."
• Spring (Mar–May): "Spring is finally in the air, and we have a few updates to share."
• Summer (Jun–Aug): "We hope your summer is going well, whether you're working or taking a break."
• Fall (Sep–Nov): "With back-to-school season behind us, here's what's new."

Keep it short, relevant and inclusive

• One or two sentences, then your news. Readers skim, and the first lines show up as the preview in many inboxes.
• Don't assume everyone's weather: a national list spans snow and sunshine. Add your region if your readers are local.
• Prefer "the holiday season" to a specific holiday unless you know your audience.
• Skip seasonal small talk in apologies or serious notices, and after a disaster in your readers' area.
