memo

These slides explain the correct MEMO format or layout to use when writing in the business world. (Our text book does have a section dedicated to MEMO writing - CHAPTER 20. There are no sample memos, so check out the samples I added in the SAMPLE PAPERS section.) Be sure you examine the MEMO slides and sample papers closely. The last couple of slides are vital. The last two "Memo" slides give you an example of a well-written, detailed memo.   

Also, be sure you remember what we covered in the "MAKING IT LOOK GOOD" lecture. You will use these concepts (HEADINGS, BULLETS, WHITE SPACE, ETC.) when creating a visually appealing memo!

I have also included a couple of memo examples in the SAMPLE PAPERS SECTION  for your consideration. So go to that section to view those samples. (See what I have done here? To make the WRITING AN EFFECTIVE MEMO lecture more clear, I will provide you with some specific examples, in the form of memos. These EXAMPLES should aid in your understanding of the memo concept! This is what using examples is designed to do for the reader - aid understanding.) The memos show many of the concepts you will have to use.
