Closing Memorandum

The best ending for a memo is a clear closing action, stated in the last paragraph. And, be very clear about what you want your reader to know or do after reading the memo, which makes it easy for your reader to respond.

The three elements of a business memo are the title, the heading, and the body.

End with a ConclusionThe conclusion should be about one or two sentences long (though it'll depend on your memo topic). You can summarize the issue in a positive manner or include a positive call to action. Some phrases and sentences that you can use include: I look forward to your support in this matter.

Memos have a twofold purpose: they bring attention to problems, and they solve problems. They accomplish their goals by informing the reader about new information like policy changes, price increases, or by persuading the reader to take an action, such as attend a meeting, or change a current production procedure.

To: Include each recipient's name and job title (for example, Miranda Lawson, Director of Marketing). From: Include your name and title. Date: Write out the complete date (for example, June 30, 2017). Subject: Make the subject brief and descriptive.

WHAT IS A BUSINESS MEMO? A business memo is a short document used to transmit information within an organization. Memos are characterized by being brief, direct, and easy to navigate. They are less formal than letters but should maintain a professional, succinct style.

A closing memorandum is a narrative used to interpret the clauses in a purchase and sale agreement after the deal has closed. This document is also known as the closing agenda.

List the purpose of the memo in the introductory paragraph. Be concise and keep the language positive throughout. Communicate the message of the memo in the subject line. Use the body paragraph and conclusion to break down your information.

Just sign and date the signature, to officially "seal the deal" on the memo, and let the reader know who, exactly, the memo is coming from. It's more important, however, to end the memo with a firm call for action, letting your readers know what specific action is to be taken.
