Apology letters are usually written when somebody or a company does something wrong to somebody else or to another company.
How To Write Apology Letters
When we do something wrong that hurts somebody, it is extremely necessary that we take a quick action to rectify the problem so that It will not harm your business. One of the best way to do this is by writing an apology letter. An effective letter of apology can improve a relationship and grow your business effectively. To make an effective letter of apology, we must pay attention to the following techniques :
- Write the apology letter as soon as possible after we do something wrong (within one or two days).
- Write a brief letter that explains the situation.
- Do not defend ourselves by blaming the situation or someone else.
- Assure the recipient that you will not repeat your regrettable behavior in future.
- Tell the recipient that you value your relationship with him or her.
- Back up your apology letter with appropriate behavior at the next available opportunity.
An effective apology letter can not only repair your relationship but also improve the quality of your relationship. In the long term it can boost your business's growth.

Dear Sue,
I am sorry for forgetting our lunch date yesterday. It was completely my fault. I was so busy at work that I didn’t remember I had a lunch date with you.
How about I treat you to lunch at the new Mexican restaurant Amor’s tomorrow at 12:30PM? I have marked this date in my planner so I will not forget about it.
I'd just like to apologize again for missing the lunch date.
Your Friend,
Brian
