Types Of Business Letters

Letter writing may be considered a dead art, but it's alive and well when it comes to writing business letters. A business’ written correspondence comes in many forms, but they are commonly created with all the text aligned to the left or with slight variations. Business letters are printed on company letterhead, showing your company's complete contact information. Content is arranged from the top, including the date, attention line, inside address, subject line, salutation, body of the letter, complimentary closing and signature. Reference initials, enclosure notation and copy notation are used if necessary.

      1.      Letters of Inquiry
Letters of inquiry are sent by company officials, executives, managers and others conducting company business to request information from outside the company, such as equipment features and pricing, or service offerings.
      2.      Adjustment
Accounting or sales managers may need to notify customers of adjustments to their accounts, bills or lines of credit with a formal letter acknowledging these business transactions.
      3.      Congratulations and Appreciation
Company officials involved in management, outside business units, or community partnerships or sponsorships write letters of congratulations and appreciation for workers, departments and members of the wider community who have reached milestones or deserve formal recognition.

Business invitations to events such as conventions, exhibitions, fundraising dinners or other important events are written as business letters.
