Conversation 1 meeting
A: we need to discuss our work plan for next year. Miss Tang, did you prepare a list of action items?
B: yes. Does everyone have a copy? It’s only a draft, so I would appreciate any feedback before I forward it to the other departments.
A: I see that expanding our product line tops the list of priorities. Although product development is important, I also think we need to find ways of upgrading our distribution network.
B: I’ve asked the marketing department to follow up on that. I intend to incorporate some of their suggestions into the work plan before we submit the final report
A: we should also brainstorm with folks in advertising to make sure that our target audience is getting the message.
B: we’ll have to be careful about how we present our ideas. Those creative types can be awfully sensitive!
A: I’ll speak with the assistant director in the advertising department. We have a good working relationship, and I think she’ll be receptive to our ideas.
B: good. Let’s move on.
Conversation 2 meeting
A: today, we’re going to talk over how to increase sales in our country next year. Have you got any idea?
B: I think we should launch a new advertising and promotion campaign at the very beginning of next year. If we want to enjoy a bigger market share in our country, we should first let more people know about our products.
C: I quite agree with your, Mr. Jing. In addition, I think we ought to run some more chain shops not only in some large cities but also in some medium-sized cities in our country. If we only emphasize large cities, we’ll lose market share. I think it is a good channel to promote our products.
A: how do you feel about that, Mr. Brown?
D: I agree up to the point. But I think the main point is that our products are a bit expensive, compared with other brands.
A: you mean we’ll reduce our prices?
D: as far as I am concerned, I think it’s a good idea to reduce our price by 5%. Perhaps at the beginning, we’ll lose some money, but it can make customers easy to accept our products. Little by little, we can make small profits but quick returns.
B: I don’t agree with you. You know, we only make a small profit at these prices. As I see, it’s more important to improve product quality and after-sales service than to reduce price.
A: this seems a sensible and constructive suggestion. On the one hand, we should do further advertising and promotion. On the other hand, we should improve our after-sales service. It’s a good idea to open chain shops in some medium-sized cities. Are we all agreed?
All: yes.
