I had to write four different business emails for an assignment in Business Writing. Each email needed to include a salutation, brief pleasantry, purpose, call-to-action, and closing message. Each of the four mock emails was for a different scenario:

•  A neutral email asking for a person to attend my event 

• A negative email using an indirect method (responding to a customer when I could not grant their request)

• A positive email using a direct method (responding to a customer when I could grant their request)

• An unsolicited persuasive email
