Question
What's the difference between letterhead and a letter template?
Answer
Letterhead and a letter template do different jobs and actually work together. One is the branded paper, and the other is the layout of the words you place on it.
- Letterhead is the pre-printed or digital paper carrying your logo, company name, and contact information.
- Letter template is the document layout, covering where the date sits, the salutation style, paragraph spacing, and the closing.
| Letterhead | Letter template | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | Branded paper or background | Text layout and structure |
| Purpose | Identity and branding | Formatting the message |
In practice, you write your letter using a template and print or place it on top of your letterhead.
