Dear [Recipients Name],
Because you have excellent work ethics and you always do impressive work, I am sad to inform you that management has refused my request to promote you from Level 7 to Level 9. Their explanation is that company policy doesn't allow an employee to move two levels at a time. However, they agreed to discuss the possibility of advancing you to Level 8 next month if our division maintains its good production. I promise you that I will do my best to get you promoted.
Sincerely,
[Senders Name]
