Assessment Task 4

Compose a memorandum which will be used to accompany the advertisement you have created in Task 2. Ensure that you include all the details shown below in your memorandum.

  • You are sending the advertisement to your company’s copy centre (printing department) – the purpose of this memorandum is to provide the copy centre with printing instructions.
  • You require 250 flyers by Wednesday 9.00 am.
  • Request that the flyers be cut so that you have a total of 500 flyers.

Your memorandum must:

  • Incorporate correct spelling, grammar, vocabulary and punctuation
