When writing to a manager you do not know by name or to a department, use an attention line. (Example: "Attention Claims Manager.") Avoid stuffy "Dear Sir" or "Dear Madam" salutations. I am writing this letter to express my appreciation for the wonderful assistance we received from your staff during the past month.
For informal letters, follow the same format as the sender's address. If sending a letter to someone at a specific business, the first line should be the company's name. In the next line, follow "ATTN:" or "c/o" with the individual's name.
Write the "attention" line: Begin this line with either the abbreviation "ATTN," or the full word "Attention." Then, after a colon, write the person's name. You can either write their full name, or their professional title if you're certain of their preferred gender pronouns.
Write "Attn" followed by the name of the recipient. This line signifies to the mail carrier exactly for whom the letter is intended. For example, write "Attn: John Smith," where "John Smith" is replaced with your recipient's name. As an alternative, you can write out the full word "attention."
To capture someone's attention in an email or meeting invite, type the @ symbol followed by their name within the message or invite.
Here are some things to remember when writing an address on a business letter or package. It's common to write "Attention' or 'ATTN colon' before the recipient's name.
