MODEL ANSWER:
Dear Sir,
I am writing this letter to enquire further details about the career-based seminar, which you host next month in the USA.
I came to know about the seminar: ‘The Art of Marketing’ from my best friend, Michael last week. However, I could not obtain detailed information about the schedule from him as he was busy.
As per the information I got, the event is scheduled by the end of next month. As I am an overseas participant, I should book the tickets in advance. Hence, it is essential to know the exact dates of the seminar. The next thing I would like to know is the topics it covers. This will enable me to prepare well-ahead and can make my participation lively.
As I am totally new to the place, and has no acquaintances nearby, I would like to know whether or not you would provide accommodation for overseas candidates. I know this is a paid seminar and an advance registration is mandatory for my participation. Therefore, it would be helpful for me if you could get me the cost incurred.
I look forward to hearing from you shortly.
Yours faithfully,
Stephen
