Planning the Routine Message 1. Routine messages are necessary for day-to-day

necessary for day-to-day business operations.
2. When analysis indicates

that the reader is interested in the content of the message, use a direct organizational plan: state the main idea first, followed by any needed explanation, and then a friendly closing.
3. The indirect organizational plan, often used for persuasive and bad-news messages, presents reasons or explanations before the main idea.
4. Determine whether a written message is needed. If so, you may transmit your message as an interoffice memorandum, a letter, or an e-mail message.

Слайд 4 Advantages of a direct approach
The first sentence

Advantages of a direct approach The first sentence attracts attention because

attracts attention because it is in the emphatic position.


When the first sentence is direct, then details follow easily.
Good news puts receivers in a pleasant frame of mind, and thus receptive to the details that follow.
The arrangement may save time. Once receivers get the important idea, they can move rapidly through the supporting details.

Explanation and Details 1. Provide enough explanation and details about your

details about your request so that the reader can
