The short message usually included in sending a formal report, proposal, brochure, or other similar material is called a letter of transmittal or a covering letter. Occasionally, it substitutes for a summary at the beginning of the report.

• a note of gratitude  for any special help received from other employees

• a goodwill close which looks forward to future discussion or opportunities
