外企信函
Business letters can be divided into two broad categories, based on the intended recipient: business-to-business letters and business-to-customer letters.
Letters that some people loosely define as business letters which are NOT business letters at all include: resume cover letters, personal character and job reference letters, complaint letters, letters to landlords, personal thank you letters, resignation letters, job inquiry and application letters; and other letters of a personal nature such as letters of apology, congratulations, invitation, and condolence, among others.
Business-to-Business Letters
Business-to-business letters are letters that businesses send in "normal" business situations, including internal correspondence.
The term "business" is used here in the broad sense to include any kind of enterprise, for-profit or non-profit, for which activities focus on the creation and/or delivery of a good or service to customers. "Customer" refers to any recipient of a good or service delivered by a business.

Personal letters can be divided into two broad categories, based on the intended recipient: person-to-person letters and person-to-business letters.
It is important to note that a lot of confusion exists as to what are true personal letters and what are NOT personal letters. For example, a "cover letter" used to transmit a report is NOT a personal letter - it is a business letter. On the other hand, a "cover letter" for a resume or c.v. IS a personal letter.
Letters that some people loosely define as personal letters which are NOT personal letters at all include: covering letters, employee letters, introduction letters, marketing letters, publicity letters, project letters, customer relation letters, financial and credit letters, order-related letters, sales and marketing letters, follow-up letters, announcements, fundraising letters, among others.
