How to Write a Business Memo
WHAT IS A BUSINESS MEMO
Basically, it is an in--house business letter. Like a business letter, a business memo is a type of professional writing. However, a business memo differs from an ordinary letter in several important ways:
1. It is written in a specific format, which is described below.
2. Unlike a letter, you do not sign your name at the bottom of your memo. Instead, you write your initials next to your name at the top of the memo.
The writing style of a business memo is somewhat formal. A business memo serves a very useful purpose. It helps members of a business organization communicate, without the need for time-- consuming meetings.
In learning to write a good memo, you should consider two very important things:
1. Professional Organization
Begin your memo with a short paragraph describing the basic purpose of your memo.
In your NEXT paragraphs, go into some of the details.
THEN, spend a few paragraphs providing your recommendations.
FINALLY, include a closing remark which concisely sums up your analysis and key recommendations.
2. Professional Writing and Appearance
Use good sentence structure and clear, concise communication. Read your memo when you have finished it to ensure that there are no misspellings.
In which paragraph is the basic purpose of your memo described？ In the （） paragraph.
