Dear Mr. Kelton:

Devon’s line of menswear has experienced substantial growth since we enlisted the services of J.J. Advertising. Your agency has used several different media in promoting our menswear, including radio and television spots, magazine ads, and direct mail campaigns.

To expand our design department, we are planning to trim the advertising budget. This would mean eliminating certain advertising media which we feel are less successful and concentrating on those which most directly affect profit margins.

Our marketing/advertising department is planning a meeting to review the effectiveness of different media and would appreciate your participation in the process. The meeting is tentatively scheduled for July 9 at 9:00 a.m. Please notify our department assistant, Janice, at (555) 212-1212 concerning your availability.

Sincerely,

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.

Sincerely,

Dear Ms. Davis,

The news at our annual year-end review last Friday was not good. Management was quite disappointed in the soft sales growth and limited market penetration in 1996.

As result, we have decided to review our entire marketing effort, in particular our relationship and contract with Brock Creative Services.

I’m sure you will wish to have input over the course of this review. This letter is meant to give you the chance to gather information for your side of the story. Please contact my office to set up a meeting.

If you have any questions or comments please do not hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely,
