Company logo image if there is one available. Company website address. Customer’s name. Information regarding promotion. The date on which the document was produced and/or sent. Your examples of information to include are very good and demonstrate that you have given some thought to the task. 3.

Once the letter (master document) is set up and completed with all the relevant information that you want to send to the customer. 4.
