Dear Mr Billison,
I am Charles Pattison, a junior project coordinator at your organisation, writing to seek your permission to attend a helpful
business
conference
organised by Business
Flyer, a prominent human resource development company from the UK.
The conference
, as advertised in the Daily Business
Insider, will bring together like-minded young business
professionals and focus on steps to make a powerful digital footprint. The newspaper mentioned that it would be a three-day-long discussion and aim to develop the leadership skills of the participants so that they can bring innovation and success to their digital marketing effort.
Right after I saw the advertisement, I called the coordinator and he advised me to reserve a seat if I am interested. It will continue from 21st to 23rd August, from 8.00 am to 3.00 pm.
Our company has recently started taking digital marketing seriously, and I believe I can contribute more to it if I gather insights from the conference
. The discussion topics are quite up-to-date, and I believe those are actionable content and materials based on a sound curriculum.
I would request you to allow me to participate in the conference
and oblige thereby.
Yours sincerely,
Charles PattisonSubmitted by lavisharma622 on
