Business Document Style Guide

For Emails, Memos, & Letters

Formal Email Format Explained (for recipients firm)

Dear Dr. Smith:

I was given your name by John Doe, who told me you teach business writing.

I’d like to arrange a mini-seminar for my staff on business email, memo, and letter format. The goal is to give us all one easy format to follow so we don’t have to look up formats every time we want to send a professional communication to someone outside our office.

Are you available to teach a seminar on this topic at our office on Thursday, October 7, from 2-2:30 pm?

Best regards,
