Some thoughts I have about following up with a letter after your interview. I would email o snail mail a letter to each person you talked to. Some of the areas you should cover
1) Thank you for your time etc....
2. A few sentences indicating why you are interested in it and what you understand about the job such as I understand that the acme company is poised for growth the xyz market". As I understand it, you need someone who can do ABC for you (spell out ABC in detail using the same words the client used during the interview)
and
3. List why you thing you are qualified such as “My experiences doing XYZ demonstrate that I can hit the ground running and make an immediate contribution toward your ABC goals”
4) (If there were any areas where the you might feel at disadvantage, take a few sentences here to address it head in and turn it into an advantage...such as "I'm excited by the challenge of becoming expert in X technology. Everything else I am currently expert in is something I once knew nothing about and I'm always thrilled to expand my horizons.")
5) Thanks again for your time and consideration. I want to be the candidate you pick, so if there are aspects of my background you would like to explore further in order to feel comfortable choosing me, please feel free to contact me anytime.
This demonstration to the client that you "gets it" and "wants it" is something the competitor won't have the opportunity to do, and might not have the coaching to do even after the interview.
