1. Прочитайте и письменно переведите текст «types of business letters»

When writing a sales letter, it is important to have a good attitude in order to sell your product or service, because the reader will want to know why they should spend their valuable time reading the letter. Therefore, you need to provide clear, specific information that will explain to the reader why they should be interested in buying your product or service.

Sales letters usually have a four-part strategy:

• Catch the reader's eye: it is very crucial in a sales letter to attract the reader's attention or else you will probably fail to sell your product or service;

• Describe the product or service you are trying to sell;

• Convince your reader that your claims are accurate: back up your comments with research and facts;

• Give the reader opportunities to learn more about your product or service: provide the reader with a phone number, a Web site address, or some way for them to seek out information on their own.

The Acknowledgement letter

There is no better way to lose business than to allow a letter to remain unanswered. Even if you are trying to keep your head above the flood waters of the busy season, acknowledging the receipt of a letter is polite and looks efficient. Acknowledgements can also be used to obtain further information to speed the relationship along.
