The rules of business etiquette are an interesting and multifaceted science that should be mastered by everyone who is somehow connected in the work process with communicating with people, and especially with foreign partners. Often, in addition to regular business letters, people have to send letters of invitation to their partners and employees, and in these letters you must observe basic etiquette in order to show your respect for the interlocutor.
Instructions
Step 1
How you formulate your letter of invitation depends largely on the nature of your relationship with your business partner. This will affect whether you write a letter in an informal style or follow the rules of business communication. In any case, you should start the letter with a polite greeting: Would you like to… or Please.
Step 2
Punctuation marks can help make the invitation compelling - reinforce one sentence with an exclamation mark. If you feel that you can communicate informally with the person, you can make the letter more emotional - write about the feelings that you will experience if the person comes to the event to which you invite them.
Step 3
In addition, you can formulate the invitation in the form of a hint - for example, say that you hope to see him at an event, ask if the person is going to come to you and how he feels about the prospect of attending an event. In the invitation, let the future guest understand that he will be interested in the event, interest and intrigue him.
Step 4
Always follow the structure of the letter - the invitation should contain a greeting, then it should contain the main part, in which you describe in detail what exactly awaits your partner at the event, and then correctly draw up the conclusion ("Sincerely …").
Step 5
If you receive an official invitation to an event, answer politely - regardless of whether you are going to the event or not. In any case, thank the interlocutor for the invitation and express your agreement and willingness to attend the event.
Step 6
If you don't go to the event, apologize and express regrets about your absence. The inviting party must understand that you would gladly attend the event to which you were invited, but do not have this opportunity at the moment. Always write a response letter to the invitation - this is a rule of good manners and adherence to business etiquette.
