I am considering setting up in business & wish to write to potential suppliers to introduce myself & explain what I want. Most of the suppliers I will use will be abroad so I need help in coming up with a concise introduction letter. As letters are not my strongpoint any help would be appreciated! :)

I always suggest people take a look at Microsoft Office Templates (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/templates/CT010146857.aspx) as a starting point for the business letter needs. Do not copy them word for word, the best bet is to customize them for your needs, speaking in your "voice".

Remember the two rules I try to live by in Marketing Communications:

1. Less is more
2. Create an attention grabbing headline that pulls them into the rest of your copy.
