Chose one of the following two topics:

1. Think of an idea you would like to see implemented in your job (e.g. a way to increase productivity, improve service, increase business, or improve working conditions). Write a routine miscellaneous memo requesting action and persuading your audience that your idea is worthwhile.

2. Write a memo as the sales director of a company to both in-house sales department employees and the sales representatives. Announce and describe a new dress code policy and diplomatically explain why the policy is more strict for the sales reps. Remember to keep the tone informal but professional, to format the memo properly, and to provide adequate information regarding the new dress code.

Pay attention to the standard parts of a memo.

Use whatever word-processing program you have to write your memo, but save the file as a docx or Rich Text Format (.rtf). This is easily done by finding .rtf on the drop down menu on "File Type" in the SAVE AS textbox. The file name should be your last name, initial, and assignment number. For example, if your name is Robin Johnson, your naming for this first writing assignment would be JohnsonR-WA1. When you have carefully formatted and edited your memo, upload it to the Assignment link below by using the "Browse" button. Double-click on the file you wish to upload and then be sure to click on the ATTACH FILE button before you click SUBMIT in the lower right corner. In the "Comment" textbox, type in your name and WA 1.
