[4] Enquiry from an import agent in India to a British export manufacturer

We have now been importing your "Litewate" raincoats for a number of  years,
and our trade connections throughout India have  bean  more  than  satisfied
with the garments.
However, two от three Indian manufacturers  have  recently  launched  ultra-
lightweight models, and these are catching en' very fast.   In view  of  the
increased competition this involves, we wander whether you  have  considered
marketing a coat  of  rather  lighter  material  than  the  "Literate",  but
equally waterproof.   A garment of this type would  have  a  large  sale  in
this country if you could offer it at a competitive price, that. is  to  say
not more than Ј3.50 for a man's model, and slightly less for a woman's.  You
will be interested to learn that raincoats being produced here  suffer  from
one major drawback, namely excessive condensation on the inside surface.
We would be grateful for your preliminary  comnents  as  soon  as  possible.
Yours faithfully

We are very glad to have your letter of 1 December  and  to  hear  that  you
have been receiving enquiries about  our  Weatherproof  coats.  The  Utewate

and Africa. Unlike  many  waterproof  coats,  the  Utewate  does  not  cause
excessive condensation on the inside surface, and so would be  suitable  for
your climate. We can quote you the following prices:           f      p

reported good sales even in the present  season,  when  hardware  sales  are
usually at their lowest.
After studying our prices and our  liberal  teme  to  the  trade,  you  will
understand why we are working to capacity  to  meet  the  demand.  We  would
advise you, therefore, to let us have your order by the end  of  the  month,

discount of 24% over and above the usual trade discounts in connection  with
your order for 30,000 envelopes no. 2M.

We await your reply. Yours faithfully

days only, and to telex your order without delay.

[12] Circular from a large store informing customers of sale of stocks
at reduced prices Dear Sir or Madam
On 1 June this year we are moving to larger and more modem premises at  nos.
50-55 Oxford Street. Our business has grown so considerably in recent  years
that we can no longer provide our customers with the service we are used  to
giving them in our present building.
In view of this move we are selling off our entire stock at greatly  reduced
prices to save us the trouble and expense of packing and removal.
Come and visit us any  day  next  week.  The  sale  will  last  for  7  days
only—less it stocks are cleared sooner. This is an  exceptional  opportunity
for you to obtain real bargains: reductions range from  15%  to  30%,  while
certain surplus lines will be going at up to 50% off list prices.
Don't miss this chance! Our doors open at 9 a.m. on Monday 20 May.

[13] Offer of special trade discount Dear Sirs
In last summer's exceptionally fine weather we were so overloaded with  late
orders from most of our regular customers that we were unable to  keep  pace
with the demand.
While we understand our customers' tear of overstocking, we  are  sure  they
will appreciate our position when we are suddenly flooded with urgent  last-
minute orders.
To encourage all customers to lay in a good opening stock this year, we  are
prepared to offer a special trade discount of 4% on  all  orders  over  Ј500
net value received before the end of the month.
Help us by helping yourselves!
Yours faithfully

[14] Wholesaler's special offer of woollen blankets Dear Sirs
A few weeks ago we were fortunate enough to have the  offer  of  the  entire
stock of the Hartley Blanket Company, which has now  ceased  to  manufacture
woollen products. We took advantage of  this  exceptional  opportunity,  and
are now in a position to offer these famous  all-wool  blankets  well  below
the market price.
This is a 'once-in-a-lifetime' opportunity, and we expect to dear our  stock
in a few days.
We must ask you, therefore, to give the enclosed  special  price  list  your
immediate attention and to let us have your order at once.
Orders will be executed in strict rotation and can only be accepted as  long
as stocks last. Yours faithfully
[15] Specimen of a follow-up letter to a distributor  to  whom  a  catalogue
was sent in response to his enquiry.
Dear Mr Morton
You wish to modernise your store-rooms with  the  most  up-to-date  shelving
system yet devised: that is clear  because  you  asked  for  our  catalogue,
which was sent to you earlier this month.
The next step lies, of course, with you. You could have a  demonstration  of
the fitting of the lockshelf system in  your  own  store-room,  or  see  the
combined units here in our showrooms.
You could test for yourself the wonderful adaptability of our system to  all
storage problems, by sending us a trial  order  for  one  5  metre  section,
which comprises three units. Or if you have any special  problems,  you  are
welcome to our advice without any obligation.
You may be sure that whichever of our services you decide to use,  you  will
receive our immediate attention. Yours sincerely
