LOOKING FOR creative suggestions on how to end a letter? Read on for a list of letter closings and proper goodbyes.

Beyond the overused “sincerely”, there are many ways to sign off a letter or e-mail. When writers choose letter closings, the endings can offer insight into how readers should follow up. “Write soon” welcomes the reader to respond, while the more reserved “Wishing you the best” may be saved for a difficult sympathy card.

Here are lists of letter closings organized by formality.

List of Proper Business Letter Closings

Be it for marketing letters, cover letters or professional e-mails, writers can use a great variety of business letter closings to sign off a work-related document. Denote a friendly-but-business-like tone with the letter closing “Kind regards”, or keep things ultra sharp by ending an important letter with “Confidently yours”.

Pick the best closings for you
