Dear Mr Trevor,

We are submitting our account sales for the consignment delivered ex-SS Orianna. You will find our draft for £1,190.80 enclosed, which is for the total sales, less our commission at 10 per cent and charges.

A number of booksellers here have been asking us if they could get scientific text books, or classic fiction which is written in a simplified form of English and would be suitable for students of an intermediate level in English.

If you produce a series like this, would you send us a list? If not, could you put us in touch with a company that specializes in these books?

Yours sincerely,

 

L. Chailing

Points to remember

1. If you are offering an agency to someone, convince him that your products are worth selling and will find a market in his area.

2. Be clear about the type of agency you are offering: exclusive or non­ exclusive, on a consignment basis or a sale and retail basis.

3. Offer terms and suggest methods of settlement of accounts. Be positive about the support that you, the principal, can provide for your agent.

4. If you are asking for an agency, make sure the manufacturer appreciates the standing of your company and convince him that his products will be well represented.
