Advice and apology for unexpected delay in shipment (#197)

 

Re: Purchase order #_____

 

Dear _____,

 

This is to inform you that we are unable to make delivery on the above referenced purchase order on the date originally planned. We should have our merchandise ready to ship within 10 days of the original delivery date and we hope that you can hold off until that time. We did want to inform you of this delay as soon we were advised in order to give you as much time as possible to make alternate arrangements, if necessary. We can assure you, however, that if your order remains in force we will expedite delivery to you as soon as we have received the merchandise.

 

Please accept our apology for this delay and thank you for your understanding.

 

Sincerely,

 


 

Announcement of catalog price reductions (#201) Go To Top Of Page

 

Dear _____,

 

This is my favorite kind of letter. How many letters have I had to write over the years advising you of a price increase? Why, you ask, am I so happy? Read on.

 

This is to advise you that, for a limited period of time, we are reducing prices on certain items in our catalog. Take a moment to review the enclosed catalog. I have circled in red ink the items that are temporarily reduced. What an opportunity!

 

Please take advantage of these prices. If you wish to order large quantities, or stagger shipments, give me a call and we will try to work out mutually acceptable terms and conditions.

 

In any event, get your order in, as these prices are only in effect until [date].

 

I do enjoy writing this type of letter. Thank you in advance for your order.

 

Take care,

[Describe exceptions, if any]

 

On exceptions noted, we shall assume you agree to same unless objection is received within ten days of receipt of this notice.

Very truly,


 

Letter Canceling Unfilled Order (#295) Go To Top Of Page

Under the circumstances, we are certain that you will understand the necessity of our canceling this order.

 

Thank you for your attention.

Please [instructions for return of merchandise].

Lapsed Subscription Renewal Letter (#298)

 

Dear,

 

Having had the pleasure of mailing you [name of magazine] every month for the past three years, we were wondering if perhaps you haven't realized that your subscription ran out in [month].

 

We mailed you our [month] issue and have not yet removed your name from our subscriber's list inasmuch as we felt that you may be unaware that it is time for your renewal.

 

We have enclosed our renewal subscription card for you which provides for 12 issues of [name of magazine] at the low price of $[amount] per issue, or $[amount] less than the newsstand price.  As you can see, this represents a substantial savings.

 

We are looking forward to hearing from you soon.

 


 

Announcement of cancellation of free delivery (#203) Go To Top Of Page

 

Dear _____,

 

There has been a change in our delivery service policy which we would like to bring to your attention.

 

We have always provided free delivery for any orders placed, regardless of the size of the order. Due to the increase in the price of fuel, we must now limit this free delivery service to any orders over $[amount], not including the purchase of _____. We regret the necessity of imposing this restriction.

 

We wish to take this opportunity to thank you for being one of our most valued customers.

 

Sincerely,

Dear _____,

 

Thank you for your order. At this time we cannot fill your order due to an unexpected shipment delay from our overseas suppliers.

Good customer conversion of account to COD (#308) Go To Top Of Page

 

Dear,

This is to acknowledge our telephone conversation regarding the past due balance on your account.

 

Perhaps your remittance to clear this amount has been mailed, and if so, please accept our thanks. However, if it has not yet been sent, we hope a check can be put in the mail in another day or two to bring your account up to date.  All merchandise orders are currently being referred to us.  Your check to clear this past due balance must be received before future shipments can be made.

 

We are sorry to see that your account once again carries a past due balance. When I met with you recently, I stated that we were willing to continue our extension of credit at the present level with the understanding that your account be maintained on a current basis.

 

Unfortunately, this is not the case at this time, so it will be necessary for us to review the current credit arrangements on your account.  However, we will not be in a position to extend any credit until the past due charges on your account have been cleared. Once these charges have been cleared from your account, we will review the credit arrangements that we currently have on your account.  If these past due charges are not cleared within the next few days, we may have no other alternative but to withdraw our extension of credit on your account entirely.

 

Your cooperation and prompt attention to this matter will be greatly appreciated. If you have any questions regarding your account, please do not hesitate to call me.

 

Sincerely,

On [date] we called your attention to your account balance in the amount of $[___].

 

According to our records we have not received either a reply to our letter or a remittance to clear this account.

Thank you for your attention to this request.
