Слайд 4Decide if a memo needs to be sent [1]

Decide if

a memo needs to be sent. If you need to

update several people on your team about an important business matter, then sending a memo is an excellent idea. You may even want to send one if you're communicating with just one person if, for example, you want or need to have a written record of your correspondence.
However, in some cases, it may be more efficient to just talk directly to those you need to.
Also, some information may be too sensitive to send out in a memo

Слайд 5Identify your purpose for writing [1]

Identify your purpose for writing.

Depending upon your specific purpose, the content and organization of

your memo may change. Most types of memos are written for the following reasons:
To propose an idea or solution. For example, if you think you know how the scheduling problems for overtime can be worked out, you may want to write up your ideas in a memo, and send it to your superior(s).
To issue an order. For example, sending a memo can be an efficient way to assign responsibilities for an upcoming conference that your department is hosting.
To provide a report. You may also want to send a memo in order to update your colleagues about an event that's recently occurred, give an update on a project, provide a progress report, or report the findings of an investigation.

Слайд 6Narrow your topic [1]
Narrow your topic. You may be juggling

a lot of projects and be tempted to send a

memo updating your colleagues, superiors, or clients on everything you're currently working on. Keep in mind though, that business memos should be focused on just one issue.
They should be concise, clear, and easy to read quickly by busy individuals; thus, you don't want important information to be overlooked. Keeping the memo focused will help ensure that your message is received and understood

Слайд 7Consider your audience [1]

Consider your audience. The content, style

and tone of your business memo will all be affected

by the intended audience, so think carefully about everyone who will receive your memo.[2]
For example, you'll write a different type of memo if you're writing to your colleagues about planning a surprise party for the people in the office with summer birthdays, as compared to when you're writing your supervisor about the results of your months-long investigation.

Слайд 9Avoid language that is too casual [1]

Avoid language that is

too casual. Generally speaking, your language should be straightforward and

simple, yet professional. You should avoid taking too conversational of a tone in your memo.
For example, avoid writing things like “Hey guys! TGIF, am I right? Anyway, I wanted to tell you about an important business matter.”
Instead, get right to the point: “I'm writing to provide everyone with a progress report for Project Z”.

Слайд 11Avoid using emotional language [1]
Avoid using emotional language. It's also

best to try to take a neutral tone when you

write and avoid using emotionally-charged language. Do your best to refer to facts and evidence to support your claims.
For example, avoid claims like “I think we'll all be so much happier if we're allowed to dress casually on Friday.”
Instead, research to see if there are any studies on whether office morale increases when employees are allowed more autonomy in their choice of attire, and cite that in your memo.

Слайд 13Use signal phrases [1]

Use signal phrases. When you are about

to cite evidence or refer to a source, be sure

to use language which lets the reader know what you're doing.
For example, try the following: “According to our findings,...” or “Research completed by the EPA has indicated that...”.

Choose an appropriate font

style and size. Your memo should be easy to read,

so you should avoid using excessively small font—11 or 12 point is standard.
You should also choose a simple font style such as Times New Roman. This isn't the time to play around with “fun” fonts like Comic Sans (you'll be made fun of if you choose this one!).

Use standard margins for

your memo. 1-inch margins are typical for business memos, though

some word-processing programs may include pre-formatted memo templates with slightly wider margins (for example, 1.25 inches).

Single-space your document. Business memos are usually

not double-spaced. In order to keep the page number down,

consider single-spacing, but leave spaces between individual paragraphs or sections.

Слайд 27Formatting Your Email
Use a professional email address. Ideally, your email

address should be a variation of your real name, not

a username or nickname. Use periods, hyphens, or underscores to secure an e-mail address that's just your name, without extra numbers or letters, if you can.
For instance, coolguy0127@theemail.com will seem unprofessional. Meredith.Athena.Calhoun@theemail.com, however, is suitable.

Слайд 28Stick to a professional font. Most email services now allow

you the option to write using a variety of fonts

and text styles. For a formal email, however, keep things conservative, with fonts like Times New Roman and Arial. Avoid decorative fonts like Comic Sans or Old English. In addition:[1]
Write your email in a legible font size, such as 12 point type.
Avoid special styles like italics, highlighting, or multicolored fonts unless they are warranted by the content and purpose of the email.
Do not use all caps. These make it seem like you are shouting at the recipient

Слайд 29
Use a short and accurate subject line. Use keywords in

the subject line that suggest exactly what you are writing

about, in just a few words. This helps make sure that readers don’t overlook your email because the subject line is missing, is too vague, or suggests the email is unimportant.[2]
Subjects like “Quick question,” “Contacting you,” or “Email about an important matter” are too vague or obvious to be useful.
“Schedule, Guest List, Lunch Requests, and Meeting Overview for March 12th,” on the other hand, is overwhelmingly long and covers several topics.
“Meeting RE: damaged escalator on March 12th,” however is short and to the point. It alerts your recipient to a single primary topic, and a specific date

Слайд 30Writing Your Message
Use a proper salutation. Always open a formal

email with a salutation. Addressing the recipient by name (if

known) is preferred. Include the person's title (Mr., Mrs., Ms., Dr., etc.) with their last name, followed by a comma or a colon. You can precede the salutation with "Dear..." if you like.[3]
If you don't know the name of the person you're writing to, use a salutation like “Dear Sir/Madam,” “Dear Sir or Madam,” or “To whom it may concern.”
Do not use “Hello,” “Hey,” “Hi,” or other informal salutations
Writing Your MessageUse a proper salutation. Always open a formal email with a salutation. Addressing the recipient

Слайд 31Introduce yourself in the first paragraph (if necessary). If you

are writing to someone you don't have an existing relationship

with, such as a new customer, hiring manager, or government official, tell them who you are and why you are writing. Do this in the first sentence or two of your email.
For example, when writing to a potential employer, you might say: "My name is Earl Rivers. I'm contacting you to apply for the administrative assistant position listed on CareerXYZ.com."
Introduce yourself in the first paragraph (if necessary). If you are writing to someone you don't have

Слайд 32
Prioritize the most important information. Once you’ve introduced yourself and

the general reason you’re writing, you can follow up with

the body of your email. Put the most important content near the top. This respects your recipient’s time, and makes the purpose of your email clear.[4]
When writing to a government official, for instance, you might start by saying: "My name is Arlene Rivers. I obtained your email address from the Westchester County Clerk website. I am writing to contest the traffic citation I received on December 31, 2009. "
Prioritize the most important information. Once you’ve introduced yourself and the general reason you’re writing, you can

Слайд 33
Get to the point. For a formal email, it’s ok

to be direct, as long as you are polite. Beating

around the bush will only lose your reader and make it harder to figure out what you want or need from them.[5]
For instance, when writing to a professor, don’t waste space with unnecessary padding like: “This is Darlene Frankreich. Do you know me? CHEM 221 is my favorite class right now. I love the way the lectures are so organized. I can always follow along and know what will be on the tests. Speaking of tests, I was thinking about the next exam.”
Instead, it would be much clearer to write something like: “This is Darlene Frankreich. I’m a student in your CHEM 221 class, and I'm writing about a potential exam time conflict.”
Get to the point. For a formal email, it’s ok to be direct, as long as you

Слайд 34Keep it brief. There’s no set length for how long

an email should be. However, it’s a good idea to

keep an email to about one (laptop or desktop size) screen length.[6]
If your email is relatively lengthy, break it up into short paragraphs. Insert a line break between each paragraph instead of indenting.
Keep it brief. There’s no set length for how long an email should be. However, it’s a

contexts, you’ll want to give a good impression. Use complete

sentences and polite phrasing. Avoid things like:[7]

Unnecessary contractions

Jokes

Use a proper form of closing. As with salutations, there

are a variety of closings that are acceptable in formal

emails. Make sure to follow up with your full name and job title or other signature (if you have one). Examples of potential closings include:[8]
"Yours sincerely,"
"Yours cordially,"
"Respectfully,"
"Best,"
“Your student,”

Слайд 37Preparing to Send
Include any necessary attachments. If you need to

include any attachments, make sure to mention them in the

body of the email to let the recipient know that they are included. Be courteous by trying to keep the number of attachments and their file size down, and by using common or widely compatible file types.[9]
For example, include a note like “I am attaching a copy of my resume and portfolio, in PDF format.”

Proofread your message for content, spelling, and grammar. Don’t just

rely on your email service’s spelling or grammar checker. Reading

your email aloud or asking someone to proofread it is a great way to catch any typos, mistakes, or unclear phrases

Слайд 39Make sure that the email does not contain any sensitive

information. Always keep in mind that email is not a

secure communication system. Remember that email servers can be hacked, or that your recipient might intentionally or unintentionally share information that you didn’t want divulged.[11]
Avoid including things like passwords, account numbers, and confidential information in an email.
