Memos in Minutes

no image

Memos in Minutes tells "all" in 87 pages. It offers a sharp contrast to the usually weighty tomes on business writing. It contains no theory, no exercises, no long-winded discussions. It does describe, concisely, 13 steps necessary to writing memos that inform and persuade. The steps total a "method" that business writers repeat each time they write a memo. The method keeps writers on track with each memo, avoiding the pitfalls of poor organization; lack of audience appeal; too little meaning, too many words; and incorrectly applying grammatical rules.  read more »
