Dear _________________
I have an announcement to make regarding the future of our company. Several months ago, I was contacted by _________________ about the possibility of selling my company, _________________, to them. Although I had not been actively looking for a buyer, I agreed to talk with them. In the end, I became convinced that it is in the best interests of _________________, myself, and the employees to accept _________________'s offer. Thus, as of _________________, _________________ will be owned by _________________.
I will continue on in an advisory capacity for _________________, so we'll still be seeing each other. Nevertheless, there are bound to be some changes. _________________.
It has been a privilege and an honor to work with all of you here at _________________. I hope that you enjoy working with the people from _________________ and that they enjoy working with you as much as I have.
Sincerely,
_________________
