How to write a letter-simple idea's

At one time or another, most of us have an occasion to write to others, if it be to thank, complain — or just to say hello. Here are some tip's that may be helpful to you.

1. Consider a different salutation than “Dear.” Refreshing openings could be “Good morning” or “Good day,” which might capture your reader’s attention sooner. And it’s unique.

2. After making your point, give a reason, then concisely explain the reason. Close with re-stating your point.

3. Give as much attention to correct grammar and punctuation with an email as you would with a handwritten or typed letter, particularly for business matters. The response may be sooner.

4. Send a handwritten thank-you note following an interview for employment. In fact, some companies will not consider hiring someone who does not send an expression of gratitude following the interview. Thank-you notes do not need to be lengthy, but they should express appreciation for the interview and possibly to confirm why you are qualified. The more specific the message, the more meaningful it is to the recipient. And the sooner it is sent, the more it is appreciated.

5. Consider using a different adjective than “great” to describe a positive quality. I believe the word “great” is used way too much.

6. In a letter of complaint, simply provide the facts about your purchase in your opening paragraph. Explain your complaint in the middle, then close with a positive remark, such as “thank you” and your expectations. This basic process — positive-negative-positive — may earn you an early reply.

7. Pleasantly surprise someone who hasn’t heard from you in quite a while — and who might be very grateful.
