Most businesses send out mailshots several times a year, whether they are large-scale mailings or batches of individualised letters to a dozen key customers at a time. If the targeting and the offer are right, you get a positive response. If you get them wrong, it is junk mail.

- Knowing what you are trying to achieve.
- Getting the content right.
- Essential tips on form and style.
- The keys to maximise your response.
