拒绝提供样品费的信函范文商务英语

拒绝提供样品费的信函范文商务英语Subject: Refusal to Provide Sample FeeDear [Recipient's Name],I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address the recent request made by your company for us to provide sample products without charging a fee. After careful consideration, we have decided to respectfully decline this request.While we understand the importance of providing samples to potential clients for evaluation purposes, it is also important for us to consider the costs associated with producing these samples. As a business, we invest time and resources into developing high-quality products, and providing samples without a fee can become financially burdensome for us.We believe that our products speak for themselves in terms of quality and innovation, and we have confidence in their ability to meet the needs of your company. However, we are unable to provide free samples on a regular basis as it would not be sustainable for our business.With that being said, we are more than willing to discuss other options for you to evaluate our products. We can offer discounted rates on sample products or provide additionalinformation, such as product specifications and reviews, to help you make an informed decision.We value the opportunity to work with your company and are committed to finding a solution that meets both of our needs. If you have any questions or would like to discuss this further, please do not hesitate to contact us.Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.Sincerely,[Your Name][Your Title][Company Name]。
