This is to inform you that The ( Name of Company )
is now open and is located at 4500 4th Avenue North,
St. Petersburg, Florida.
Our store offers a complete and diverse line of computer
software packages for both personal and business
application. Since we do not represent any individual
computer hardware manufacturer, the products that we
carry are compatible with many systems. We are therefore
able to offer to our customers a wide range of excellent
software packages. Enclosed, for your review, is a
partial list of the items we currently have available.
We hope that you will come and visit us soon.

Announcement of New Discount
Dear
It is with great pleasure that we have recently welcomed
(name) to our beauty salon. (name) was
previously with (name of previous salon) in
(city) and we feel privileged that he has chosen
to work with (shop name)
We would like to take this opportunity to inform you of
another change that has taken place in our salon. Now, if
you make an appointment to have more than one treatment
done on the same day, we are offering a discount. For
example, if you are having your hair done and also having
us apply sculptured nails, the cost for your nail
application will be $25.00 instead of $30.00. The discount
for a manicure or pedicure is $2.00 off our regular price.

We felt you would want to hear about this and are hoping to
see you in the near future.

42.
Announcement of New Pricing Policy
Dear
It has been our policy in the past to supply ice to our
customers when their ice machine has broken down. Because
we have many customers who are paying later and later, we
are forced to set down stronger company policies. Our new
policy will go into effect August 3, 1986, and is as follows:
1. If the customer is more than 15 days late in their monthly
payment and the machine is not working, we will not supply
ice. We will repair the machine, and the number of days in
which the machine has not been in service will be credited to
the customer's account. At the time of our service call we
will expect payment in full of any unpaid balance due us.
2. There will be a sur-charge on accounts falling more than
30 days behind.
While I am sorry that we must go to such extremes as those
outlined above, I am afraid that there is no alternative.
Our company policy is, and always has been, to provide the
best service available to our customers. We can only
continue to do this with our customer's cooperation.
If there are any questions regarding our new policy, please
give me a call.

43.

Dear
You deserve an explanation for what went wrong in our
accounting department, and I hope that this letter will
serve to resolve our recent difficulties.
I know that you can appreciate the fact that it has
taken some time to find out exactly what occurred, and,
therefore, please accept our apologies for the delay in
this response.
Apparently, your payment was received in a timely fashion,
but it was credited to an account which bears a similar
name to yours. Therefore, we commenced sending you our
standard notices requesting payment, in keeping with our
routine policy. Even after the posting error was rectified,
our accounting department failed to notify our credit
department, which is why you continued to receive our
correspondence demanding payment.

I know how exasperating this has been for you and I am


deeply sorry that it has taken so long to straighten out
this problem. While there is a procedure within our firm
to preclude this type of error from occurring, we are
reinforcing this procedure.
You have been a valued customer of ours for a long time
and we appreciate your affording us the opportunity to serve
you. You may rest assured that this problem will not
surface again.

given to him. Therefore, please accept my apology for the
delay in refunding your money for (basis of adjustment)
Our bookkeeping department has been instructed to issue a
check to you at once, which you should be receiving within
a few days.
I am grateful that your letter was brought to my attention
and I appreciate your perseverance in settling this matter.
Once again, I am very sorry for the inconvenience this has
caused you.
55.

This is to inform you that we are unable to make delivery
on the above referenced purchase order on the date
indicated.
We should have our merchandise ready to ship within 10 days

expedite delivery to you as soon as we have received the

which showed that your account had been paid in full.

caused you, the enclosure of your check enabled us to go

the assumption that this bill had not been paid. I know
this insistence on our part must have been extremely
frustrating for you, especially in light of the fact that

paid your bills promptly.

of error does not occur in the future.

Apology for Poor Service Rating on Customer Questionnaire
Dear
Thank you for taking the time to fill out our questionnaire
during your stay with us. We do appreciate hearing from
our customers, as their comments are vital for us to
continue improving our accommodations.
The problems that you mentioned have been brought to the
attention of our housekeeping department. While the lack
of service you experienced is unusual and not the standard
of our motel, there is no excuse for a lackadaisical attitude

98. Commendation

Gentlemen:
You are to be commended for the manner in which you
handled the unfortunate incident which led to removing
( Product Name ) from the market.
While the reports that I have read all indicated that
there was no definite proof that the taking of ( Product Name )
may have resulted in her present condition, the fact that
you acted so quickly shows that your first concern is with
the health and well being of the public.
As a consumer, I would like to express my appreciation for
your integrity and once again commend you for the fine
manner in which you handled this incident.
99. Commendation and Refusal of Request for Raise
Dear
This is to acknowledge your letter of (date)
You are definitely to be commended for your progress
during the past two months.
I do believe, however, that your recent request for a
raise is premature. I would suggest that it would be
more appropriate to discuss a salary increase after you
have worked here for six months. If you continue on
the same path, I am certain that your timely request
will be given careful consideration.
You are doing a fine job, keep up the good work!

Dear
Our "Talent Night in St. Petersburg" promotion was greeted
with a great deal of enthusiasm by the community, and I
want to take this opportunity to thank you for all of your
encouragement and support.
As always, all of the staff at WQOL were extremely
cooperative. I must, however, single out one in particular
who worked exceptionally hard to make it the success it was.
This is Judith Blakely, who seems to have an unlimited
amount of energy and holds firmly to the conviction that if

it is worth doing, it is worth doing it right. It is fair


to say that without her help, this event would not have been
nearly as successful as it was. We played to a full house.
What more is there to say!
We will be looking forward to a repeat performance. It has
been a joy working with your fine staff.

Customer Incentive Program Announcement

Dear
As a valued customer of (name of company), we couldn't
wait to bring you the good news. This letter is to
announce the incorporation of our new customer incentive
program (CIP?). Well, maybe we haven't thought of a great
logo for it yet, but if you read on I think you'll agree
that no matter what we call it, it's super!
Starting on June 1st, a record of your account with our
store will be maintained on a cumulative basis for a
period of one year. Once your purchases have reached
$500, you will be automatically entitled to a 5% discount
on any order placed, including orders for sale items.
When your orders have reached the $1,000 mark, your
discount will increase to 10%. A $1,500 accumulation of
orders will entitle you to a 15% discount and once you
have reached $2,000 you will receive 20% off all
merchandise orders. We think it's a great idea and hope
that you agree.
Won't you send us a purchase order today to get you
started on your way? If you think of a good name for us
to tag onto this new discount program, please let us know!

Customer Revival, Preferred Customer Private Sale

Dear
We have missed you!
We didn't see you at our Summer Sale and we didn't see you
at our Fall Sale, either. So, after putting our heads
together here at ( Name of Company ), we concluded that one
possible reason for your having stayed away so long might
be that you don't like crowds. We came up with the
following solution:
A PRE-CHRISTMAS SALE
OPEN ONLY TO PREFERRED CUSTOMERS
DECEMBER 17, 1986
5:00 P.M.- 9:00 P.M.
If there is any other reason that has kept you away, won't

Customer Revival, Product Sales

Dear
It has been so long since we have had the opportunity to
be of service to you, that I have begun to wonder if

perhaps, we have offended you in some way in the past.


If this is the case, I would greatly appreciate knowing
what happened. In fact, if you have any grievance with
our firm, I wish that you would call so that we might
discuss the problem.
We have introduced many innovations into our product line
since the last order you placed with our firm, and if the
reason we haven't heard from you has nothing to do with a
complaint, we would appreciate having the opportunity to
show you these innovations.
In either case, it would be wonderful to hear from you.

Decline of Venture Offer
Dear
Thank you for sending me the information on (name of

Decline to Interview Referred Job Applicant
Dear
Having been away from the office for a few days, I didn't
read your letter of May 19th until today.
While I am sure the young man you wrote to me about
wouldn't warrant the recommendation you gave unless he is
truly exceptional, I believe it would be unfair to him to
set up an interview at this time.
We have just had to lay off twenty four employees and there
is no way that I could justify hiring someone new under
those circumstances. We anticipate that business should
improve over the next six months, but for now, the timing
is off.
I am sorry to have to disappoint you. You know, under the
right circumstances, we are always looking for bright young
people with potential.
Thank you for thinking of us.

Denial of Request for Additional Discount
Dear
This letter is in response to your inquiry regarding our
flexibility in the discount rate we offer for early
settlement of accounts.
Our established discount is 2% of the total invoiced amount
when payment is received within 10 days of delivery. This
figure is not one that has been arbitrarily chosen, but is
based on cost, overhead and profit. To increase this discount
rate for all of our accounts would seriously jeopardize our
firm and to increase the rate for an individual account would
be both unfair and unethical. I believe that you will find
that the 2% discount rate we offer our customers is standard
in the industry.
We consider you a most valued customer and hope that you can
appreciate our position in this matter. If we are able to
accommodate you in any way that is within our company policy,
we will be most happy to do so.

139.

After careful review, we regret to inform you that we are
unable to grant you any further extensions for the payment
on your loan.
We are sorry about the difficulties you are experiencing,
but we must insist on receiving your payment by (date)
We hope that you will be able to find another solution to
your problem.
140.
Denial of Request for Quarterly Billing
Dear
Your letter requesting that we bill you quarterly rather
than monthly, presents us with somewhat of a problem.
Inasmuch as we would like to welcome you as a new customer
of our firm, we would like to accommodate you in any way
possible. Your request, however, would result in your
receiving preferential treatment for your account and would
be unfair to all of our customers who must settle their
accounts within 30 days. If we were to offer the terms
you have requested to all of our customers, we would soon
be out of business entirely.
I am sure you can understand our position in this matter.
We would welcome your account on our regular open account

basis and hope that we will have the opportunity to provide


you with our fine line of products as well as service.

mployee Suggestion for Company Meeting
TO:
FROM:
SUBJECT:
Dear
There is such a high degree of anxiety about the proposed
merger with (name of firm) that I can see the
effects in my department daily. I do not feel that the
newsletter put out last week helped assuage the fears of
the other employees.
I believe that it might be beneficial to meet the issue
head-on by holding a meeting wherein questions can be put
forth and answers can be provided.
There is a schism between employees and management that
appears to be growing and presents a potential problem.
If, for example, this merger fails to materialize, the
employees may maintain their current feelings of
alienation to the detriment of the organization.
I know that there are many inherent problems in hashing
this subject out in an open forum and these must be
weighed against the present alternative. I do feel,
however, that the suggestion is worth some consideration.
