Dear Mr. Clark,

I assume that you have not yet established your client base in the US, since you stated in your first email that you are likely to have some clients here, and that this is a new business you have just opened. You will have to provide me with some further details of your company that I will be representing, eg the name and address. Also, your client base here in the US. Incidentally, I do have an account  with Wells Fargo Bank, so it would be easy to get the necessary transfers done. Hope to hear from you soon. 
Mgmt.
