Business letter
A business letter is defined as any correspondence dealing with matters
pertaining to business of any sort. These will generally follow a formal outline
type and consist of an introduction, which brings forth the idea or suggestion, a
body which explains the details of the proposed transaction, and a conclusionoutlining the pros and cons of such a business action. Legal letters and
business letter formats and templates can be found at many online resources
free for download.
A business letter is a formal communication from an organization to its
customers, the general public for their information, another Company or the
Authorities. It is often written in a standard format, and in formal language,
compared to a private letter between two people who are well known to each
other. The business letter will show things like the address and best way to
communicate with the business - by return letter , e-mail or telephone. In
general, the letter will be directed to a specific person and be about one topic.
Sometimes, the business letter will be looking for a response, but might be to
give important information about an up-coming change of address or telephone
number. The letter might give information about new developments - a new
website; launch of a new product. To allow the sender to handle any response
more efficiently, the business letter might contain key information such as an
internal reference from the sender or related to the product in question.
Letter of interest
1. Contracting: Written-response solicited from contractors or vendors through
advertisements. It is often employed in pre-qualifying the respondents for
specific services, based on their resources and experience, before sending a
request for proposals (RFP).
2. Financing: Written communication issued by a lender in response to a
request for funding a project or transaction. A LOI neither confirms a loan nor
provides any specific terms under which the loan may be extended, but only
states that the lender would consider that type of financing. See also
commitment letter.
Cover letter

A letter of apology, or apology letter, is primarily written to try to salvage arelationship after the writer and/or their organization has made a mistake, orotherwise offended another party. Apology letters are used for both personaland business situations.
It is important that letters of apology "ring true" with sincerity, or they will not betaken seriously by the recipient and will therefore fail.
Invitation letter
An invitation letter may be formal or informal. While a formal letter may bewritten by universities inviting parents for graduation ceremonies, an informalletter may be written to invite someone for a social function. Here, we provideyou with samples for both such letters, which may be modified depending onthe occasion.
Resignation letter
A resignation letter is a letter formally advising your employer that you areleaving your job. A resignation letter can help you maintain positive relationshipwith your employer, while paving the way for you to move on.
While the employee may have told you verbally why he has decided to leaveyour company, you do not need to ask the employee to document his reasonsin the resignation letter. In fact, smart employees wont put anything in a
resignation letter that might be misconstrued or taken personally by the readerat a later date.
Letter of recommendation
A letter in which a writer (usually a person in a supervisory role) evaluates theskills, work habits, and achievements of an individual applying for a job,admission to graduate school, or some other professional position.

for instance), you should (a) clearly identify the deadline for submitting the letterand provide adequate notice (at least two weeks), and (b) supply your referencewith specific information about the position you're applying for.

dos and donts that can help you get the right outcome.

goods were bought, any customer reference numbers or invoice numbers, or a
record of any previous communication with the company concerned.
get straight to the point and set out exactly what the problem is.
give all the relevant information in a clear and logical sequence.
state what action you want the company to take and when you expect them tohave done this.

criticism of the company or its products or services.
send your letter without checking it carefully for grammar or spelling mistakes.

Appeal Letter
Whether it is a denial of your unemployment, suspension from college, or a
decision of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), housing board, orneighborhood association, many of us will have a time when we need a second
chance. When these situations present themselves, an appeal letter might get
you that second chance, so be sure to make the most of it. To write a
professional, effective letter of appeal, follow these step-by-step instructions.
Format your letter in business style. From top to bottom, the layout of a
business style letter should be as follows:
Letterhead. If you already have letterhead paper use it; otherwise, create a
letterhead at the top of your document. Include your name, address, phone
number, and e-mail address.
Date. When dating your letter, write out the full date instead of using an
abbreviated form, for example "June 16, 2012" or "16 June 2012" and not
6/12/12 or Jun. 12, 2012.
Inside address. The inside address includes the recipient's full name and title,
the name of the institution, agency or company, for which he or she works, and
the mailing address.
Reference line. This line starts with RE: followed by the subject of the letter.
For example, RE: Appeal. You may wish to include your name and student or
employee identification number, case number, or other information that will
allow the reader to identify you.
Salutation. The salutation should use the recipient's title and last name, for
example Dear Dr. Smith" or Dear Mr. Smith. If you are unsure of the
recipient's gender, you should use his or her first and last name, for example
Dear Kim Smith. If you are unsure of the recipients name, "Dear
Sir(s)/Madam(s)", "Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, and To Whom It May
Concern are appropriate salutations.
Body. Leave some space here, as this is where you will write the actual letter.

Closing. Like the salutation, the closing should be formal. "Sincerely,"
"Cordially," and "Respectfully," are all appropriate choices. .
Signature block. Leave about four lines of empty space after the closing, so that
you can sign your letter after have printed it, and then type your name exactly
as you will sign it. For example, if you use your middle initial when you writeyour signature, use your middle initial in your type written name.
Notations. If you intend to enclose additional documents with your letter, note
this a few lines beneath your signature with the word Enclosure or
Enclosures
