POSTED ON 
August 11, 2009
Brilliant Ink got a nice shout-out last week from friend and colleague Dave Galanis on the Pebble Creek Partners blog. Thanks, Dave!The blog post referenced a topic I tweeted about a few weeks ago - how to write an effective corporate memo. It's surprising that companies still use this seemingly old-school tactic, but the fact is, many still do. If you're tasked with writing a corporate memo, take a look at this article from the Ragan blog for some great pointers. And, keep the basics in mind - use clear, simple language, avoid jargon and always keep your desired outcome in mind.What are your tips for writing a great corporate memo?@lizkelly
