Dear [Recipients Name],

I have recently seen your beautiful home that has an ancient time Western look to it. Like a house that had probably built in the mid-1850's, I see that it is very well taken cared of and maintained.

I would like, however, to offer you a contract to remodel your home into something more modern but which will still retain touches of your typical home and the feel of the Victorian era. As an architect working for Luxe Homes, I would be greatly honored to be allowed to work in such a beautiful home such as yours. If ever I would be given an opportunity to do so, you can be assured that I will coordinate with you every step of the way so the house will be updated in just the way you like it. No surprises. We also guarantee that we have excellent affordable prices that you can avail.

If you are interested in my offer, please phone our office at 888-8888 and look for Mr. John Smith. Thank you.

Sincerely,

[Senders Name]

Further things to consider when writing direct marketing letters to investors

Direct Marketing Letters

Direct marketing letters are letters written to persuade the recipients to purchase products or services in the absence of salespersons. If drafted correctly, direct marketing letters can be one of the most effective marketing tools for your business. They have been used by businesses to cut the cost of advertising and to inform their loyal customers about discounts and special offers. In most cases, they usually advertise single service or product line, especially one that is considered to generate great profit to the business. Direct marketing letters allow you to reach prospective customers and generate business.

Direct marketing letters should be sweet and to the point. Begin the letter with a provocative idea that captures the recipient's attention and makes him/her want to keep reading. Clearly state the top benefits of the product or service you are selling, giving practical and real life examples. If necessary, include testimonials from customers who have used the product or service. Write in a conversational style and use short paragraphs. Use an active voice too and interesting phrases that encourage the recipient to continue reading. Conclude the letter with a strong statement or argument that compels the recipient to respond or take the necessary action.

Letters to Investors

Letters to investors are letters written to people or organizations that put money into property, financial schemes, etc. with an expectation of future financial returns. Mostly, such letters are sent to request funding from the investors. If you need money to start a business or any other venture, you may send investment proposal letters to investors to get their attention and convince them to invest in your venture. If thought and drafted carefully, your letter may get the investors running to you demanding to discuss more about the venture.

Just like other business letters, letters to investors should be formal. Start the letter with a confident subject line that gives an impression that the venture will make money. State your letter clearly and simply; avoid too much detail, acronyms, or jargon. Clearly state the business sector in which your venture is. Provide details on how much funding is needed and how the funds will be spent. Explain how you plan to repay the funds. Mention any special education, skills, or experience you have that will help make this venture a success. Provide your contacts and end your letter with a note of anticipation to doing business with the recipient.
