Bumping up this email meaning

"Bumping up" an email typically means to forward or escalate it to someone else, usually someone with more authority or expertise, in order to get a response or take further action. This can be done for a variety of reasons, such as:

• To get a faster response: If you need a response quickly, you may bump up the email to someone who can respond more promptly.
• To get a more informed response: If you need a response from someone with specific knowledge or expertise, you may bump up the email to them.
• To get a decision made: If you need a decision made on an issue, you may bump up the email to someone who has the authority to make that decision.

When you bump up an email, you are essentially saying "I've tried to handle this issue, but I need some additional help or guidance. Can you take a look and help me move forward?"

Here are a few examples of how you might bump up an email:

• "Hi [Manager's Name], I've been trying to resolve this issue with [Employee's Name] but haven't been able to get a response. Can you take a look and help me figure out what's going on?"
• "Hi [Expert's Name], I've been trying to troubleshoot this technical issue but haven't been able to find a solution. Can you take a look and help me resolve it?"
• "Hi [Decision Maker's Name], I've been trying to get a decision made on this project but haven't been able to get a response. Can you take a look and help me move forward?"

It's generally a good idea to include a brief summary of the issue and what you've tried so far, as well as any relevant context or background information. This will help the person you're bumping the email to understand the situation and provide a more effective response.
