Initiating Business
Letter 1 (incoming)
August 4, 19..
Dear Sirs,
On the recommendation of Messrs. Green & Co., we have the pleasure to address you with a view to pushing sales in our district of your hand-made shoes and gloves in genuine leather. We are told that you export these goods extensively to the countries on the Continent.
There is a steady demand here for high-class goods of this type, especially in bright colours. Usually we cover our requirements from some East European countries. But if your products are superior in quality and competitive in price, we should like to place our orders with you regularly in future.
Will you please send us your catalogue and full details of your terms of business together with any leather samples you can let us have.
We look forward to your prompt reply.
Yours truly,
Letter 2 (outgoing)

Dear Sirs,
We are pleased to learn from your letter of August 4 that you wish to initiate business with us in leather shoes and gloves. We do appreciate this desire of yours.
To help you reach an early decision, we are airmailing you today a copy of our illustrated catalogue together with a range of samples of the various leathers used in the manufacture of our shoes and gloves. We think the colours will be just what you want, and the superb workmanship as well as the novel designs will appeal to your consumers.
For regular business, our payment terms are by confirmed, irrevocable letter of credit available by draft at sight. As we have done much business with other firms on this basis, we believe the same will be acceptable to you as well. A quotation sheet will be sent upon receipt of your specific inquiry.
We assure you of our close cooperation.
Yours truly,
