Promotional Letter, Bicycle Shop

Dear

Our records indicate that two years ago you purchased a
bicycle for your son, (name of child) for his birthday
which falls on (date)

If he is ready for a larger bicycle, you may wish to
surprise him on his upcoming birthday with one of the
beautiful models we presently have available in our shop
which would be suitable for a young man his age.

We do offer a modest trade-in allowance and, of course,
will be happy to deliver the bicycle to your home in order
to keep it "under wraps" until that special day.

Give it a thought and if you feel that (name of son)
would be pleased, come in to visit us at your convenience
and I will show you our stock.

Promotional Letter, Bank Trust Dept

Dear

The drawing of a will may not be something we look
forward to, but the absence of one can create an
incredible hardship on our loved ones.

There have been so many stories about individuals
whose intentions could not be carried out due to
the fact that they had never bothered to write a
will or had never updated a will written many
years earlier.

If you do not have a will or if you have one that
does not express your current desires, we urge you
to address this problem.

Please find our pamphlet and return card enclosed.
We hope that you will find this information useful
and helpful and encourage you to return the card
to us if our trust department can be of assistance
to you.

Promotional Letter, Air Conditioning Service

Dear

Before the hot summer is upon us, we are recommending that
our customers call us to arrange to have one of our service
representatives perform a thorough and complete inspection
of their air-conditioning systems.

Throughout our many years of experience we have learned that
by taking certain preventative measures such as correcting
a minor electrical problem, costly repairs and replacement
of parts can often be avoided. Another reason we have for
suggesting this inspection at this time is the fact that
invariably it is during the hottest period of the summer
that we are inundated with service requests. When this
occurs, we are unable to provide quick service to all of
our valued customers such as yourself.

Won’t you give us a call so we can ensure you of a cool
and comfortable summer?

Promotional Letter, Advertising Art

Dear

We have taken the liberty of sending the attached flyer
artwork for the Thanksgiving Holiday for your consideration.
The format and design can be used to promote this occasion
as a direct mail piece or in-house handout.

The ads that we have illustrated were designed for a
standard 8 column newspaper. If your newspaper uses a
different format, then you must ask them to reduce to fit
their column width.

We hope that you find this offering as exciting as we do,
and will take it into consideration for the upcoming holiday.
You know that you can depend on our high quality of printing
to assure your satisfaction with the finished product.

When you decide to place your order, please contact me at
(telephone) If I can be of assistance to you in any
additional way, please don’t hesitate to call.

Promotional Letter, Accountant

Dear

Enclosed is your completed 1986 Tax Return and a copy for
your records. Please sign the return where we have
indicated, enclose your check in the amount of $
and forward to the IRS.

I believe that we could be very helpful in reducing your
tax liability for the coming year if we were afforded the
opportunity to be of service to you in the area of tax
planning. We are, by nature, a conservative firm and steer
away from tax shelters we consider questionable, or
borderline at best. There are a sufficient number of ways
to safely shelter income that are both unquestionable and
constitute prudent investments.

We would be very happy to discuss our tax planning service
with you as soon as April 15th has come and gone, and there
will be no charge for this initial consultation. At your
convenience, simply call and make an appointment with my
secretary. We will look forward to seeing you.
