Dear Ms Smith,  (Dear Ms.)

Dear Mrs Smith, (Dear Mrs.)

Yours sincerely,

Kind regards,

The first word...

Note that in English, it is perfectly acceptable to start a sentence using 'I' or 'we'.

Note that you always start using a capital letter, despite the fact that the salutation is followed by a comma!

Remember:

No contractions in formal writing

Use formal language:

'We would like' to etc.

Not:  Don't, Won't, Can't

Yes:  Do not,  Will not,  Cannot

Linking words-Conjunctive coordinators

Useful words, but not at the beginning of a sentence in a formal text. Also known as the FANBOYS:

But

Or

Yet

So

For

And

Not 

Replace with formal words

But - replace with However, 

Replace with formal words

And - replace with Furthermore, 

Replace with formal words

So - replace with Therefore,
