My Dear Employees,
Let me start our quarterly business review by thanking you for your diligent efforts, which helped us to post our largest quarterly operating profit in the last three years.
We reported 2nd quarter operating profit of $17.6 million which is 23% of Sales. This indicates a gain of 1% from the previous quarter and a significant gain of 5% over the 2nd quarter of 2010. Over this period, we maintained the same workforce, which also indicates how you raised your performance when it matters the most. The encouraging sign for business is the improved total sales of $78 million in this quarter. The Sales are mainly generated from our customers in Asia and this trend will continue. Internally, we all managed to keep Fixed Costs at the same level resulting in improved operating profit.
Let’s discuss about forecast of Sales and OP. As the market continues to be volatile, we may see lower Sales and OP going forward. We certainly have survived the recession but the current market still doesn’t allow us the consistent growth. So, let us continue with the same diligent and committed efforts to maintain our edge in the industry.

Hussain your opening endeared me to reading on!
ReplyDeleteIt stuck with me and made me want to read on.!
If I was an employee of this company I would really feel how much you value the employees!
I also liked your opening paragraph beginning with thanking the employees.
"Lets dicuss" made me feel like I would have an opportunity for input and made me feel talked to not talked at!
I enjoyed your memo. I thought it was well-organized, with a good beginning, middle, and end. You clearly provided the main point, backed it up with positive, well-explained results, and then closed with a personal focus on motivating employees to continue their success. Nice work.
ReplyDeleteAfter reading your memo, I am feeling very confident in this organization going forward. After listening to your audio (nice tie in with the ppt by the way), I find you to have a professional and soothing method of conveying your message. Very nice.
