Offer Letter Sample to Exporter

Offer letter sample to exporter

2nd June 2010

Dear Sirs

We learn from your high commissioner in London that you are looking for new ideas in toys and we feel we may be able to help you.

We have recently bought on very favorable terms the entire bankrupt stock of plastic toys of the company whose catalog is enclosed, and are therefore able to offer a wide range of this company’s toys at very low prices. Most of the items listed are in stock and we are prepared to offer them to you at the special discount rate of 60% off catalog prices on orders received by the end of this month for items then in stock.

We think you will also be interested in our own catalog of mechanical toys and enclose a copy. From the prices listed we would allow you a special discount of 10% over and above our normal trade discount of 30%. We would, however, stress that these special terms, like those for unsold stock of plastic toys, are open only until 30th June. For all orders received after that date prices will be 10% higher than those we are now offering. All prices stated are for delivery c.i.f. Accra. Our settlement terms are 2% one month.

Both the catalogsOff we are sending you include a number of novel toys with which we feel sure you would be delighted and we should be very glad to welcome you as one of our customers. We therefore look forward to the pleasure of a first order from you.

Yours faithfully

Thomas Lunderson

Dear Sirs

We thank you for your enquiry of 30th November and enclose our quotation for plastic curtain material.

We have made a good selection of patterns and sent them to you today by parcel post. Their fine quality, attractive designs and the reasonable prices at which we offer them
will, we hope, convince you that these materials are really good value. There is a heavy demand for them from house
furnishesin other parts of the country, which we are
finding it difficult to meet, but provided we receive your order within the next ten days, we make you a firm offer for delivery by the middle of January at the prices quoted.

On orders for one hundred pieces or more we allow a special discount of 5% for payment within seven days from date of
invoice and look forward to receiving your order.

Sincerely Yours,



Brian Cole

Sample sales letter

Dear Reader

Your speech labels you — and the label sticks. People judge you by how you say it rather than by what you say.

Many a pretty girl loses her charm when she opens her mouth and many a man loses his wits if asked to speak in public.

Your speech reflects your personality and controls the impression you make on everyone you meet and it is easy to see how your voice can become one of your most powerful assets. That is why we are sending you the enclosed folder “How to Talk”. Read it carefully and think of the many advantages that can be yours and the confidence you will acquire when your conversation attracts and holds the attention of others.

If you want to improve your voice and make your conversation more forceful and convincing, fill in the enclosed form today. An initial payment of £2 and then only £1 for twelve months will bring you the book of instructions and a set of six records. Or, if you prefer, you may send £12.50 now to cover the total cost and save £1.50. In either case, you may return both book and records within seven days if you are not completely satisfied and we will refund in full whatever money you may have paid.

Yours faithfully

Michael Dunn

Effective Follow up Letters

Follow up letters

When a buyer has asked for a quotation but does not place an order or even acknowledge the quotation, it is natural for the seller to wonder why. If he is “alive” he will not allow matters to rest there, but will arrange for his representative to call, or send a “follow-up” letter if the enquiry is from a distance. Here is a good example of an effective follow-up letter. Its tone is that of a writer who genuinely wants to help and its style direct and to the point. It wastes no words. It considers the reader’s convenience by offering a choice of action and closes with a quietly reassuring promise of service. Notice, too, how the writer’s use of the “you” rather than the “we” approach looks at the question from the reader’s angle. “You” is mentioned no fewer than ten times and “We” only twice.

Dear Sirs

Not having heard from you since we sent you our catalog of filing systems, we are wondering whether you require further information before deciding to place an order. The modern system of lateral filing has important space— saving advantages wherever economy of space is important. But if space is not one of your problems, our flat—top suspended system may suit you better. The neat and tidy appearance it gives to the filing drawers and the ease and speed with which wanted files are located are only two of its features that many users find attractive. Would you like us to send our Mr Robinson to call and discuss your needs with you?

He has advised on equipment for many large, modern offices and would be able to recommend the system most suited to your own circumstances.You would be most welcome to his advice without obligation of any kind. Or perhaps you would prefer to pay a visit to our showroom and see for yourself how the different systems work.

You may be sure that whichever of these opportunities you decide to accept you would receive personal attention and the best possible advice.

Yours faithfully

Nick Anderson

Seller rejects request for better terms

Seller rejects request

25th May 2010

Dear Sirs

We are obliged for your letter of 22nd May quoting for “Kleenkwick” cleaning powder at £9.25 per case of 120 cartons of 250 g, but regret that at this price we cannot place an order. We are working to a number of long—term contracts under which it is impossible for us to revise our prices and had your own prices been within our reach we could have placed regular large orders.

We therefore hope you will reconsider your quotation and find it possible to offer a lower price, calculated on the basis of a xnthly order for a minimum of forty cases.

Yours faithfully

Letter of Tender

Letter of  tender is an offer, usually in response to a published advertisement, for the supply of specified goods or the performance of specified work at prices and under conditions set out in the tender. Unlike other types of quotation, a tender may be an offer in the legal sense and therefore capable of acceptance by the person inviting it (as where it is made in response to an invitation to supply goods stated to be definitely required, but not otherwise); but it becomes a legally binding agreement only when it is accepted and up to that time the tender may be withdrawn.

It is usual for tenders to be made on the advertisers’ own forms, which include a specification where necessary and set out the terms in detail.
