February 28, 2007 Addressee Address City, State Zip Dear Ms. Smith: We are pleased to tell you that we have rescinded our proposed changes to the mileage requirements for travel awards valid for use to and from Singapore. We have listened to our customers and are not too big to admit we have made a mistake. As a result, we can still offer the four first-class tickets you wanted to claim for your frequent-flyer mileage. At the time you were denied those tickets, we had just recently made the decision to change our policy and had not received any feedback from customers. Consequently, we are happy you wrote again and gave us an opportunity to provide the extra tickets due you under the old terms. I know the delay in getting your tickets must have created some anxiety on your part about your planned family vacation, and we are sorry for the misunderstanding. Please do have a nice, enjoyable vacation with these tickets. Thank you for choosing our airline for all your travel needs. Cordially,

Dear Mr Gostein:
We have recently noticed the newspaper advertisements contracted through your agency are
appearing in inappropriate sections of the paper For example, in the March 3 issue our tire ads appeared in the Lifestyles section rather than the Automotive section On March 10, the same ad appeared in the Food section
We are aware that newspapers handle an abundance of ads each week and that some misplacement may occur However, if the ads continue to appear in inappropriate sections, we will be forced to withdraw them completely and pursue other options
Your prompt attention to this matter would be appreciated Thank you for your time

Dear Mr Callahan,
Brock Systems is a software company that began advertising in National Way Magazine in December
of 1995 Because of our success, we decided to do some tests in the United and Delta in-flight
brochures We chose United and Delta as our primary exposure vehicles during this start-up phase because of their attractive layout
Then in April, we decided to advertise solely in Regional Review Our research indicated this was a reasonable way to maintain steady sales growth while minimizing our advertising costs
Unfortunately, in May’s issue, we were placed between two reader response cards toward the back of the book making it more difficult for readers to find our ad After discussing our dissatisfaction with the placement, Josephine Wiggs granted us a discount for July
We are now in the middle of the third week of May and sales have continued to drop It stands to reason that either the poor placement has had a great impact on our direct sales or Regional Review
is not the right publication for our software products
I urge you to take our situation into consideration and provide us with compensation on our account
Should you have any questions or comments, please contact me at (555) 5555 or fax (555) 5555

Dear Mr James:
Our marketing/advertising department met recently to discuss the impact of various advertising media
on the sales and profit margins of our products It has come to our attention that even though we spend over 50 percent of our budget on newspaper inserts, they have proven to be less effective than the radio spots (of which we spend only 30 percent of our budget)
Before making any adjustments, we would like to meet with you concerning your research on the matter My assistant will be contacting you next week to arrange a meeting
