| Date Name/Title Business/Organization Address City, Zip Code Dear Name: When we attended the International Electronics Trade Fair in London last month, we visited your stand and saw a very interesting demonstration of your automatic high-security garage doors. The ability to drive straight in and out of your garage from the comfort of your car, as well as your emphasis on theft protection, appealed to us. We believe that there is a ready market for this in the United States. Our company is a wholly owned subsidiary of the international Zetax Corporation, well-known in the security and theft prevention industry. Would you please send us your current sales literature and price list? Of course, we will be glad to provide the usual credit and trade references if we decide to order from your company. We look forward to your reply. Sincerely yours, Signature Name |
