Sample Memo to Boss
To: Joe Campos, VP of Sales
From: Kate Chaplain, Senior Sales Associate
Date: April 5, 2013
Subject: Quarterly Review
Mr. Campos,
I’ve attached my quarterly review report to this email, but I
also wanted to quickly discuss the trends I’ve noticed in our sales data over
the past few months.
We’ve sold over 10,000 new memberships over the past quarter,
which is a 22% increase from Q4 of last year. Our data analysis shows that this
upswing corresponds with the creation of company pages on various social media
sites, including Facebook and Twitter, which allows more people to connect with
us virtually. In fact, over half of our new memberships were purchased from
links that were posted on our Facebook and Twitter profiles.
Unfortunately, we haven’t seen the same rapid growth in the
purchase of family memberships. While the number of FMs has increased by 2%
over last quarter’s numbers, I believe we can get that number even higher.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Best,
Kate Chaplain
Senior Sales Associate
