Bad News Letter Sample
Dear Mr. Waters:
We’re happy to learn that you are enjoying the use of the Sako copier you’ve
been leasing for the past ten months. Like our many customers, you have Buffer
discovered that Sako copiers offer remarkable versatility and reliability.
One of the reasons we’re able to offer these outstanding copiers at such low
leasing rates and equally low purchase prices is that we maintain a slim profit
margin. If our program included a provision for applying lease payments toward
Reason/Causes
the purchase price, our overall prices would have to be higher.
Although lease payments cannot be credited toward purchase price, we can Bad News +
offer you other Sako models that are within your price range. The Sako 400
delivers the same reliability with nearly as many features as the Sako 600. Alternatives
Please let us demonstrate the Sako 400 to your staff in your office, Mr. Waters. Close
Our representative, Tracy Wilson, will call you soon to arrange a time.
THANK YOU
