Writing Good vs Bad – News
Business Letters
If the business letter directly affects and stirs the emotions and feelings
of the reader, it is either a good or bad news business letter. If you are
writing a letter promoting someone form your employee in your company, if
you are commending a team in your corporation for beating the monthly
sales, you are probably writing a good – news letter. The good – news
business letter is light in mood expressing pleasant information.
Unfortunately, there will be times wherein you will be required to write
bad – news business letters. If you are writing a letter rejecting a job
applicant, if you are writing a thank you letter for an employee, or worst
writing a letter to fire an employee, you are probably writing a bad – news
business letter.
