Dear            ,
 
     Are you familiar with our suggestion plan?
 
     [At each coffee station throughout the building] there
are boxes for any ideas you may have for the company.
 
     We are interested in any suggestions you may have that
could help us save money, improve the quality of our
product; or improve methods, procedures, or communication--
or anything else you may be concerned about.
 
     If your idea is adopted, you will receive an award
commensurate with the value of the suggestion.
 
     Last year, employee suggestions helped [cut costs five
percent and increase our efficiency considerably].  We value
your full participation in making the company and its
products the best they can be.
 
     Please place your suggestions in the box.  They
receive prompt acknowledgement, investigation and, we hope,
an approval and award.
 
Sincerely,
