The first goal in writing a business letter is to get the recipients address. Recipient's Address Place this in the upper left-hand corner of the letter, but start it a little below (2 or 3 lines) the first line of your own address. If you wish you may include the name of the person you're writing to, their job title or department, and company name at the top of this address.
