Dear [title] [last name]:
I am writing you in support of my application for a credit card with
your company. As I am sure you are aware, a person cannot participate
fully in today's economy without a good source of credit. I am
confident that I have attained a level of education and financial
responsibility that will justify your approving my application.
Let me tell you something about myself. I graduated from ____________
School in 19__. My education includes a baccalaureate degree in
Economics, with honors, and two years of post-graduate study in
Business Economics. Through these studies, I have gained in-depth
knowledge of many business subjects which include macroeconomics,
microeconomics and international trade. I have a good working
knowledge of English as well as strong writing skills. Currently, I am
enrolled in a technical communications course to further augment my
writing skills.
Concerning my related experience, I have been employed as a Business
Consultant for the past 7 years, and in that capacity I have had the
opportunity to build relationships of trust with clients who look to
me for help in structuring their business transactions. Mr. John
Smith, Executive Vice President of the Axiom Corporation, has offered
me the opportunity to invest the sum of US$10,000 in his company's
Dutch subsidiary, and although I have sufficient funds of my own to
make this investment, it is inevitable that his Company will require
that I have the access to credit that your card will provide.
I have also been active in the business world and have achieved a
measure of success. My personal company, Abacus Systems Ltd., is a
leading designer of software systems for industrial applications. We
serve clients throughout the world, and I am proud to say that my
personal efforts have been an important contribution to our success.
We have used Credit Suisse as our business bank, but I would rather
obtain a credit card with your organization because your local
presence will make it easier to establish the personal relationship
that I am accustomed in my business dealings.
If you would like additional information about me or my company,
please feel free to contact me at ___________.
Sincerely,
[name]

Dear [title] [last name]:
I recently met with Miles Standish of Business Finders International,
Inc., and he suggested that I consider establishing a line of credit
with your company. I understand that Mr. Standish has long been
acquainted with you, and that persons whom he has recommended to your
company have been well served by it.
Your company is well known for its outstanding position within the
banking industry. To uphold your high standards, I understand that you
need to be selective in choosing whom you grant credit to. I thought
you might be interested in learning about my company, Omega Transport.
Our company was founded as Omega Trailer Service in 1989 in Amsterdam.
Originally we specialized in truck repairs and maintenance. Over the
years, we moved gradually into the transport business, operating our
own fleet of well-maintained vehicles to move freight throughout the
United States. To reflect our new focus, we founded Omega Transport in
1998. Omega Transport principally transports goods from the Port of
Amsterdam to delivery points throughout Holland. All of our workers
are registered to handle goods at the Port, and we have never had any
difficulties in our employee relationships. While in the early days
my brother and I were the only employees of the company, we now employ
13 dockworkers and 22 drivers, all properly trained and accredited.
Omega Transport has been profitable throughout its existence. We
maintain excellent relationships with our customers and suppliers, and
to this point we have made all of our business purchases in cash. At
this stage in our growth, it has become necessary for us to have a
reliable source of credit, so that capital investments can be
amortized over time rather than paid for out of current expenses.
At Omega Transport, we take pride in our brand-new equipment, on-time
delivery, and reliable, experienced drivers. We are an internationally
recognized carrier and fully insured. Because our original specialty
was truck repairs, our fleet is exceptionally well-maintained. We hope
to have an opportunity to work with you soon. I will follow up with a
telephone call within the next two weeks, but if you would prefer to
speak with me immediately, please feel free to call _____________.
Sincerely,

Dear [title] [last name]:
It was a pleasure speaking with you Tuesday. As promised, I am
writing to tell you more about myself and my company, Equinox Systems,
Ltd., as an inducement to your granting Equinox a line of credit and
commercial credit card.
This is a great time for Equinox. Equinox's revolutionary MagnaMop
advanced technology cleaning system attracted a tremendous amount of
attention at the Dutch Cleansers' Association, and we are expecting
unparalled growth in our segment of the cleaning industry.
We are pleased, but not surprised, by the growing popularity of the
MagnaMop. Each year, more than 60 million disposable dry cleaning mops
are sold worldwide. The MagnaMop advanced technology consists of a
unique cleaning surface made of polyethylene, a phenomenally effective
magnet for dust and bacteria.
America and Japan have already embraced dry-mop cleaning technology,
and it is a burgeoning industry in Europe. We are experience growth
opportunities unparalled in our experience, to the extent that our
company for the first time is ready to move from a pay-as-you-go basis
to a capital structure built on the revolving line of credit that your
credit card offers.
Credit is always based on trust, and I assure you that you are
well-advised to place your trust in me and in Equinox. It seems like
only yesterday I was selling our mops door-to-door, and now I command
a manufacturing and sales force unparalled in our industry. Frankly,
the key to our success is not so much been the technology of our
product, but rather our ability to keep our promises in matters of
production and delivery. As we say at Equinox, a dirty floor won't
wait! And we hope we won't have to wait too long for a favourable
reply to our application for credit with your company.
If I can tell you more about myself or Equinox, please don't hesitate
to give me a call.
Sincerely,
[name]
