Well, as you know a lot of people use business writing everyday. Even If you are not a business person sometimes you should write to the school or to the company, for example, essay, your CV and recommendation letter.

Maybe there could be set out a section, where people can share info about how to write perfect letters and pick out common principles in writing them?

This idea generated myself is not surprise, because I believe there is a lot of people who need to do that on a daily basis.

Please, insert your comments about it.

Thanks

Andrey

Hi Andrey,

What kind of business letters do you write on a daily basis? The vast majority of companies use templates for all their correspondence so their employees don't have to create their own letters.

Hi, Torsten!

Of cousre a plenty of companies use their templates, but how do you imagine it? This template means only principles in writing and gives you no more than common view how to do it. Situations are changing every day and needs also changing. And clients always would like to be something specific.

I don't think you can just put your idea into template and send it out.

What about a formal writing? Which way would be better?

There is a lot of questions !!!

P.S. It is only my idea, I already appriciate that you answered to...

Regards,

Andrey
