Suppose I am writing a letter to another company, proposing for a meeting between our president Mr. Xu and their president Mr. Yao. And our company name is AAA.
There are two ways of writing this letter: 1) Company to Person Dear Mr. Yao, To enhance our cooperation, Mr. Xu, on behave of AAA, will meet you on Friday for further discussion. Thank you. Yours sincerely AAA 2) Person to Person Dear Mr. Yao, To enhance our cooperation, I, on behave of AAA, will meet you on Friday for further discussion. Thank you. Yours sincerely Xu President of AAA My question is, 2) is quite a common way of composing such letter. But what about 1)? Is it also an acceptable way?

1) Would never be used. The letter would always be from a person on behalf of the company.

Seconding genini1. Also, not to be nit-picky, but it's not "on behave" - it's "on
behalf". I hope it's not too rude to mention. :) Edited by Hekje on 09 May 2012 at 11:38pm 2 persons have voted this message useful | |||
