    Each year, hundreds of millions of people jot a letter of complaint. Since you are one of the crowd, you'll want your letter to gain attention. Place yourself in the position of the person getting your letter and recall that your goal is not to vengeance or to vent your righteous anger, but to get win-win results.

    Your Roadmap For Small Business Success

    5. Inform why you think it's key that the complaint be taken care of and affirm plainly what you require from the person or company. Demand a reasonable, possible resolution.

    6. Propose a deadline for the action demanded.

    7. Should your complaint involve an incident with an impudent sales clerk, another driver, a cantankerous or intimidating stranger, include the date and time of the incident, the name of person involved, where it occurred, names of witnesses, and any other noteworthy particulars.

    9. In finishing, articulate your assurance that the matter will be taken care of to your satisfaction.

    10. Shun derision, finger pointing, abuse, recriminations, blaming, crass remarks, and emotional outbursts. You will only provoke the very person who is in the best position to help you. Off-putting letters are not only futile, they also make you look silly.

    11. Never threaten to sue. Blustering is generally recognized as a bluff; people who are really going to sue leave this declaration to their lawyer. You might say that you will elevate the case to small claims court. This is one probable way of achieving a swift, inexpensive resolution.

    12. Never hint for freebies or "compensation" beyond your dues.
