Gesture & etiquette

Email context — no physical gesture needed. If conveying verbally in person, slight bow (15°) with hands clasped lightly in front, soft tone.

Standard email opener for survey or questionnaire requests in Japanese business. 'お忙しいところ恐れ入りますが' (sorry to bother you in your busy schedule) is essential — never just send a survey link without this kind of acknowledgement. Never use commanding tone like '回答してください' alone for external clients.
