Subject: Apology letter for missing a meeting

Sir,

I want to apologize for missing the meeting with Mafoi Consultants scheduled at 3:00 pm today. I had an appointment with one of the important clients at Koramangala. Since the client delayed his appointment, I missed out the meeting. Both are equally important clients for us. There was simply no way that I could attend both the meetings as it clashed. I had informed my colleague Abdul Shah to attend the meeting on my behalf. Kindly accept my apologies in this regard. I assure that such an incident will not occur in the future.

Thanking You,

Sincerely,

It is unfortunate if you have to ditch your team at the eleventh hour and fail to appear for important meeting. For marketing professionals and other in similar domain, meeting with clients is most important. They have to discuss with clients how to take forward the assigned work, discuss the payment and other settlements. After the appointed day, it is not easy to meet the client. In most organizations, it is imperative that the professionals attend the meeting in spite of any excuse there may be.

So you will need to call up the manager, send him a letter or email explaining your condition and draft an explanation letter for not attending the meeting. This will keep him informed on the reason and convince about your inconvenience in attending the meeting.
