Write A Block Business Letter From The Company's Perspective

Write a Block Business Letter from the perspective of company management

Write a Block Business Letter from the perspective of company management. It must provide bad news to the recipient and follow the guidelines outlined in Chapter 7: Delivering Bad-News Messages in BCOM9. The message should take the block business letter form from the posted example; however, you will submit your assignment to the online course shell. The block business letter must adhere to the following requirements: Content: Address the communication issue from the scenario. Provide bad news from the company to the recipient. Concentrate on the facts of the situation and use either the inductive or deductive approach. Assume your recipient has previously requested a review of the situation via email, letter, or personal meeting with management. Format: Include the proper introductory elements (sender’s address, date, recipient’s address). You may create any details necessary in the introductory elements to complete the assignment. Provide an appropriate and professional greeting / salutation. Single space paragraphs and double space between paragraphs. Limit the letter to one page in length. Clarity / Mechanics: Focus on clarity, writing mechanics, and professional language/style requirements. Run spell/grammar check before submitting. This course requires use of Strayer Writing Standards (SWS). The format is different than other Strayer University courses. Please take a moment to review the SWS documentation for details. Assignments must be submitted through the online course shell only. The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are: Plan, create, and evaluate professional documents. Write clearly, coherently, and persuasively using proper grammar, mechanics, and formatting appropriate to the situation. Deliver professional information to various audiences using appropriate tone, style, and format. Analyze professional communication examples to assist in revision.

Dear [Recipient’s Name],

Thank you for your continued interest and engagement regarding our upcoming product launch. We value your support and your dedication to staying informed about our latest innovations. However, I regret to inform you that after careful planning and assessment, SuperMega Retail Company will not be able to accommodate preorders for the new high-demand computer scheduled for release at the end of June next year.

This decision was not made lightly. Our manufacturing and supply chain partners have faced unforeseen challenges that limit our ability to provide preordering options at this time. Despite our efforts to secure an ample supply, the limited stock available just before the product release will be allocated primarily to our retail partners and pre-established distribution channels. As a result, we are unable to open preorder reservations to individual consumers, including your organization, for this launch.

We understand that this news may be disappointing, especially given the enthusiasm and anticipation surrounding the new product. We have explored numerous avenues to facilitate preorders, but current constraints mean we must adhere to our revised distribution plan to ensure fairness and uphold our commitments to retail partners who have supported us throughout this process.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. However, we remain committed to providing updates and ensuring you have the opportunity to purchase the new computer once it is available in stores. We will also communicate directly with you about the official release date and the purchasing options following the product launch.

Thank you for your understanding and continued partnership. Should you have further questions or require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me directly.

Sincerely,

[Your Name]
