Hi,

I have started a business from home. Could I get help formatting a letter to businesses informing them of the services offered.

Thank you,

First, you want to make sure your letter gets open. Don't make it junk mail. I prefer postcards, because at least they glance at your offer.

It must have a catchy headline and your strongest offer should be stated first. If possible offer something free( report or inexpensive gift) to get people to make contact with you.

The P.S. is the most read part, so make sure that will cause the reader to take action.

Hi, lisavaz!

I know that your thread is somewhat dated now, and that perhaps you've already found a format for your letter that works for you. But, I just wanted to add, that if you haven't found just the right format for you that works, that you could post a draft of such a letter here so that we can help you to make improvements to it, if you would like.

If you do that, please don't put any contact information in it on this thread.

Thanks!
