CONCLUSION
There are several things that must be considered when you want to make an announcement text. You must pay attention to the title, type of event, date or time, place, contact person, and address. Some of these things only apply if you make the announcement text, but what if you want to make an oral announcement?
The things you have to pay attention to when you want to make an oral announcement are clarity in the process of your delivery, intonation, pauses, and volume must be adjusted so that listeners can understand what you want to convey easily.
Here are some tips on how to make an announcement text:
- Announcement text must be written concisely, clearly and easily understood.
- Consider the main purpose of making an announcement, because it is not just a statement, but an announcement can also increase people’s level of trust in what you are conveying, especially if you are about to announce a new product to potential buyers.
- Give facts in the content of your announcement as needed and there is no need to overdo it so as not to change the purpose of the announcement.
- Write announcements with short words and avoid repeating unnecessary words, because that will disturb those who listen or read the text of your announcement.
- If you have finished writing the announcement text, don’t forget to check it by proofreading to avoid misspellings, incorrect phrases, ineffective sentences, etc.
