Answer:

At some point, most people have to write a letter of request for something. Whether it's a charitable contribution, a chance to make up a missed exam, a meeting with an expert in your field, or a document you need for a report you're writing, the style for writing these letters remains the same. Follow these instructions to make your letter of request more professional and persuasive.

1)  Brainstorm the big ideas. In order to write a clear, effective letter, it is     crucial that you have a clear sense of your goals and the letter's purpose.

2)  Consider your audience. Essential to setting the right tone in your letter is understanding the audience you are writing for. After your initial brainstorm, on another piece of paper, write down what you know about the recipient of your letter.

3)   Make an outline. Finally, before you begin actually composing the letter, create an outline to organize your thoughts into a logical, coherent order.

4)  Use the proper format. Writing your letter in the proper, professional format of a business letter is a good way to make positive first impression.

5)  Start with a salutation. Begin the main text of your letter with a proper, respectful salutation.

6)  Write an introductory paragraph. In the first paragraph of any letter of request, you will need to introduce yourself and clearly but briefly state the purpose of the letter, e.g. "I am writing in hopes that you will consider making a contribution to the Boston Citizen's Charity Fund.

7)   Write a body paragraph. Your body paragraph (or paragraphs) should provide additional context and information and more specific details about your request. This your opportunity to spell out exactly what you are asking for and make your case for why your request should be granted.

8)  Write a concluding paragraph. In your concluding paragraph, you should make your recipient aware of any relevant time constraints you face, and also express your gratitude for their consideration of your request.

9)  Add a closing. Finally, your letter needs an appropriate and polite closing. Good options include "Respectfully," "Sincerely," or "Best regards," followed by your name.

10)  Cool off. After finishing the first draft of your letter, set it aside for a few days, if time permits. This will give you a different perspective on it when you return to it.

11)   Edit and rewrite the letter. Give the letter a close reading to make sure your writing is clear, flows well, and accomplishes the goals you set out to accomplish in part 1. Make any necessary revisions.

12)  Proofread the final draft. After you've made any substantive edits, give the letter one more look to catch any spelling and grammar mistakes that you might have missed the first time.

13)  Send your letter. Send your letter to its recipient. If you are sending a physical letter, be sure to include a current and professional-looking stamp. In the top left of the envelope, put your name, title (if applicable), and return address. In the bottom middle, include the recipient's name and address. Make sure you keep a copy for your records until the matter is settled.
