Don’t use really spiffy technical lingo that will convolute the reader’s mind. Don’t tack on fancy endings to simple words that will cause a delay in the conveyance of your message.
Keep paragraphs short and to the point, but never make errors. Close with a “call to action” requiring the reader to do something. I ask that you write professional and courteous memos.
