1.04 Write internal and external business correspondence to convey and obtain information effectively

Definition 1: examination into facts or principles : research Inquiries 1: examination into facts or principles : research 2: a request for information 3: a systematic investigation often of a matter of public interest

Occasions when inquiries are written To ask for more information concerning a product, service or other information about a product or service that interests us. Letters are often written in response to an advertisement that we have seen in the paper, a magazine, a commercial on television when we are interested in purchasing a product, but would like more information before making a decision.

Types Solicited - when a business or agency advertises its products or services Unsolicited - if the recipient has done nothing to prompt your inquiry

Procedures for writing inquiries Early in the letter, identify your purpose for help or information. Delaying the statement of your purpose makes it more difficult for the recipient to understand the inquiry. In an unsolicited letter, identify who you are, what you are working on, and why you need the requested information, and how you found out about the individual. In an unsolicited letter, also identify the source that prompted your inquiry, for example, a magazine advertisement.

Procedures continued List questions or information needed in a clear, specific, and easy-to-read format In an unsolicited letter, find some way to compensate the recipient for the trouble, i.e. acknowledge the recipient in your report, or send him or her a copy of your report. In closing an unsolicited letter, express gratitude for any help that the recipient can provide. In an unsolicited letter, tactfully suggest to the recipient how they will benefit by helping you (for example, through future purchases from the recipient's company). Don’t forgot to set up your letter in standard format with date, greeting, closing, and CONTACT INFORMATION.

Assignment Write one (1) solicited and one (1) unsolicited letter to one, each of the sources identified in Indicator 1.03. Use word processing software to complete your letter. Share your letter with a classmate to obtain feedback and to have your letter proofread.
