Admit it: your memos are boring. And because they can barely stay away through an entire memo, you aren’t getting your message across. They aren’t listening.
I have a million ideas about adding levity and humor to your workplace communications, but very few of them are as easy as this one: Baby Mail. Got something important to say? Want them to actually listen? Try communicating it with BabyMail. I love this communication tool for a bunch of reasons.
- They will actually listen to it. Carefully.
- They will end up sharing it w/ their teammates and talking about it. (Do they do this with YOUR memos.)
- It demonstrates that you have a personality and sense of humor — even if you don’t.
- It forces you to communicate your message in 20 seconds. Come on…you can do it. That’s all they have time for anyway.
Here’s a sample:

Great one Brad.. :)
You are right on that Brad. Memos are very tiring. Based from my experience, I used to send out memos to my teammates but after a while I got tired since on top of sending memos, I still have to follow-up on them. You really have a good suggestion here. Thanks!
