Dear (Name):
Your business associate, John Doe, has told us about your line of women’s care products.
Our publication, Women’s Beauty Care Monthly, is one of the most widely read publications on the subject.
We pride ourselves on keeping women up to date on all beauty trends and products. And that’s why we have this special offer for you. We will offer you three free months of advertising space when you sign a 12-month advertising contract with us.
Beyond the obvious benefit–12 months for the price of nine–the most important benefit is exposure to your products. As you know, the only way to sell is to let people know what you have! With our large and targeted audience, you can rest assured that you will reach the greatest number of potential customers for the least amount of money.
Women’s Beauty Care Monthly features a new products section in which we can advertise your products next to an informative column.
We can help you with ad copy and design at no extra charge.
I have enclosed a rate card with ad sizes and costs, and the 3-months-free option is one I am offering you personally. I’ll call you next week to work out the details. I look forward to working with you.
Yours truly,

The Next 12 Months Will Be Special to Your Health
Dear Friend,
Someday you’ll look back on this moment as the beginning of a new life, when you chose to open the door to a universe of healing alternatives that you won’t learn about from your doctor. Nor will you learn about them from some faceless web site or from drug company propaganda.
Isn’t it time you experienced better health, a more robust immune system, a reversal of chronic conditions that have plagued you or your loved ones, relief from pain, and truth about the miracles of healing being experienced around the world? All these benefits can be yours right now with a commitment to better health.
No matter if, in the past, you promised yourself to make changes and came up short, or followed the advice of a well-intentioned doctor and saw little benefit, this time it will be different. Your commitment will become real, lasting, and powerful.
The difference will be Doe Health Magazine.
As the publisher of Doe Health Magazine, I make you this commitment: health and wellness or your money returned. Here are some of the topics we discuss:
