How to professionally resign from an offer letter? I recently accepted and my start date is approaching fast, but got an offer from a better company which I will obviously take. Email or actual letter?

Email, say just be honest. Trust me, it's not a big deal, they get it all the time. It doesn't even matter what you say, just say you got an offer that suits your preferences better but you really appreciate their offer and will certainly consider them as an employer in the future.

I work for a small agency and manage our internal marketing acct. We had very few processes in place when I started.

They are resistant because they just want the work to be done and don’t “want to keep spending money on internal jobs”. I’m confused because we’re doing the work either way and “spending” in labor/resources.
