Hi, I was wondering if you could send me a copy of your letter.
I currently use one for my carpet cleaning which i get good results from. I avarge 1.3% on my letters. As compered to leaflets you can expect between 0.3% and 0.5%.
Kind Regards,
Rob.

sarril

excellent letter i will write back with in depth comments soon .
one thing i picked up on .
is ,i think it is overloaded with information at the beginning .no problem with that ,i think potential customers will start to read then give up towards the end and may miss the point.   ???
 
i suggest some clear attention grabbers ,

then go into detail later .

but who am i to critisize .its better than i could do .
still very good though

Have sent  you both the original 2 page draft and also the udated version which is a litle more compact.

 I have received different views on the first one because, for some it is too long and carries too much technical info and some thought it may put potential customers off. 

Personal choice though.  Let me have your comments.

Just done it Dave.

Do I take it now that you have joined the 'Dark Side' and are cleaning quicker you have some spare time to canvass for more business !!!

Sent two drafts - mix and match to what suits your business. Good luck with the op.
