300+ Successful Business Letters for All Occasions Paperback – October 1, 2010

This book seems to cover just about any business letter that you might ever need. The book itself is divided into 16 chapters covering topics such as LETTERS OF INQUIRY, BUSINESS ANNOUNCEMENTS, INVITATIONS, and COLLECTION LETTERS. In addition to providing many examples of letters the book also covers issues and approaches to creating letter for various reasons. This is helpful if you do not want to use the example, but still need guidance on how to compose a letter on a certain topic. The book also provides what it calls "useful sentences" that you can plug into a letter of your own design. There is also a "quick reference appendix" that show Forms of Addresses (if you're writing to a politician or dignitary), common spelling and grammar mistakes, and other helpful pieces of information. Overall I rate this book very highly and think that it should be on the bookshelf of anyone that writes formal business or personal letters.

i was ordering a book to freshen up on how to type a current business letter. i have older books with older styles, so i wanted something new. this book truly has the current business letters, but sooooo much more. it even has a Business Proposal which i am in the middle of needing to type and had no idea i would get a sample format on that as well. therefore, i highly recommend this book for a nice business "encyclopdia" to have on your desk at home! actually if you are working, it would be great to keep at the office as well....then YOU can introduce new writing strategies.

B

For anyone that does not know how to word things or how to begin a business letter or the format. Helpful, but there could be so many more examples and it could have been sectioned in a different and more detailed manner.

Would recommend to anyone taking a college business course. It is also helpful to anyone that works for a business that writes alot of emails. It is very straight forward in what needs to be done. It will help you improve your email and letter writing ability. I would recommend to anyone that has to write professional emails. You can never go wrong with a Barron's book.

Great book to have in your desk at the office.

The book arrived quickly and was exactly what I was expecting. I personally recommend this book to all business owners and employees. In today's market, where written/typed communication is significant, having a great guide can really make a difference. My original copy from 10 years ago has helped more than 12 people improve their writing skills. That copy is still use in my office today. I purchased this wine for the updated content.Highly recommended.

looks good!!!
