Persuasive Memo:• In a persuasive memo you must constantly
keep your reader's feelings in mind. Consider how the person will react to what you are saying. What would convince him or her most readily? How much should you rely on logic, and how much should you appeal to emotion?
![Page 18: The business memos](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022082920/5556df14d8b42ac60c8b4805/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Directive Memo:• A directive memo states a policy or
procedure you want the reader or co-worker to follow. The length of the memo depends on how much space is required to properly explain the procedure.

Technical Memo:• A technical memo is a concise
presentation of results, with a logical progression from the principles which are core to the analysis towards the conclusions that were drawn from the results.
