Dear [Recipients Name],

We are very glad that you came to visit our shop again last February 24. We know that you are a man who wants great quality cars at a reasonable price. You came to the right place, and we can give you exactly what you need. You talked to one of our sales clerks on the phone, Matt Evans, and he informed you that you have a good credit history. He said that you would just get in touch as soon as you have made a decision and until now, we are still waiting for that.

We would like to tell you that you qualify for the special promo that we have for our long-time customers. We can give you the blue SUV that you have been eyeing on your last visit for a discounted price of $250 a month. That is $50 less than the original price for new customers. However, this offer is only until the end of February. If you are still interested, please call us as soon as possible at 414-4444 before the promo period ends.

Sincerely,

[Senders Name]

Further things to consider when writing follow-up letters to clients

Follow-Up Letters

Follow-up letters are letters you write after business contracts, job interviews or business meetings to show that you are still interested in the recipients and that you are willing to build a relationship. Follow-up letters provide a platform for continued communication and are an effective way of consolidating a real relationship between you and the recipients. A follow-up letter is important in the early stages of a business relationship as it gives you an opportunity to reintroduce yourself and reconnect with the recipient. It also gives you a chance to address a concern that was raised at the previous meeting or give additional information to the recipient.

Well written follow-up letters can make a great difference in your success. These are letters sent during the early stage of the relationship, and therefore the writing style should be fairly formal. Make sure to write the letter as soon as possible after the meeting to keep things fresh. Explain your point clearly and avoid making unnecessary assumptions. Try as much as possible not to convey any negative sentiments. Where necessary, remind the recipient of any deadlines as well as date and time for the next meeting. Close the letter positively.

Letters to Clients

Letters to clients are letters a person or organization writes to other people and/or organizations that benefit from the senders' products or professional services. These could be welcome letters to welcome the clients to the organization, introduction letters to introduce a product or service to the clients, or thank-you letters to appreciate clients for their continued support. They could also be response letters to respond to clients' queries or inform letters to notify the clients of important matters like discounts on products and services, relocation of offices, etc. Basically, a letter to a client can be just about anything, as long as whatever you are communicating is business-related.

Letters to clients are business letters, and therefore, they should be formal and professional. Start the letter with a proper salutation. Clearly state the purpose of your letter. If a client is required to take a certain urgent action, make sure to specify exactly what he/she is supposed to do. Be brief and straightforward and avoid adding irrelevant details. Close the letter by warmly inviting the recipient to respond or to take the necessary action. Sign the letter and provide your contact details. Print the letter on the company's letterhead.
