BUSINESS LETTERS

Letter writing is an essential part of business communication. A letter should always accompany a cheque, a contract or any other business paper sent by mail. The letter says what is being sent, so that the recipient should know exactly what you intended to send. There exist traditional structures of business letters generally accepted and used throughout the world. A well-composed letter will make a better impression on the reader. Thus good letters make good business partners.

The letters may be subdivided into such groups as: enquiries, offers, orders, refusals, acknoledgements, quotations, letters of complaint/claim, etc.

The firms, as a rule, have forms for the letters printed on good paper. The form should have the name of the firm, its address, and also the character of the business of the firm.

 

Five C’s for Business Letter Writing

* Clearness:Avoid business jargon,use simple, direct language.

* Completeness: Include all necessary information within the letter. Assume that the readers do not know all the facts. Make it easy for the readers to understand your situation.

* Conciseness: Be specific. Say what you meanclearly.Don’t be vague or confusing.

* Correctness: Always proofreadand edit your letters.

* Courteousness: Use proper salutations, avoid phrases that scold or annoy, end on a friendly note.

LETTER of INQUIRY.

Business transactions usually start with inquiries. As a rule, the prospective buyer gets the name and address of the prospective seller either at an exhibition, from an advertisement in a newspaper, magazine or thanks to a television or radio commercial. All these channels of information and advertising are very important.

Inquiries can be sent by mail, by telex or by fax. Sometimes inquiries can be made orally, by telephone.

In the inquiries the prospective buyer states in what goods exactly he is interested and asks for details on the price and terms of sale, availability of goods, delivery dates, terms and discounts, method of transportation, insurance, catalogues and samples of goods.

Dear Sir or Madam,

 

We are writing to you on behalf of our principals in Canada who are interested in importing chinaware from England. We saw your products at the International Potteries Exhibition in London in May and were deeply impressed with them.

Could you send us your latest catalogue and price-list, quoting your most competitive prices? We would also appreciate your sending samples of the products.

Our principals are a large chain store in North America and they will probably place a substantial order if the quality and prices of your products are suitable. As you know the demand for potteries of all types in Canada and the USA is really great.

We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours faithfully,

L.W. Low
