What to Focus On

  • Business correspondence is formal written communication for professional purposes.
  • It widens contacts when personal meetings are not possible.
  • It helps in sharing information about business changes and activities.
  • A business letter follows a fixed format.
  • Heading, date, reference, address, salutation, body, close, and signature are the main parts.
  • An attention line is separate from the salutation.
  • Write the date in full with no st or th.
  • Use the correct prefix for men and women.
  • Keep the opening polite and direct.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Any written communication between businesses is called a business letter, so informal notes, reminders, and casual messages also count.

A quotation letter is the buyer's request for price details, while an enquiry letter is the seller's reply.

An order letter is written before receiving the quotation because the buyer already knows what to buy.
