What one writes should be free from grammatical blemishes, and also free from the slightest possibility of being misunderstood. Clarity, conciseness and courtesy are the essential qualities of business letters. Moreover, complete contents, correct information and language, concrete ideas and consideration for the customers’ needs are also important.
