Jullanna Lopez | 10:22 a.m | So, it's confirmed. We're presenting a marketing proposal to AEK on July 18 at their headquarters. |
John Brenner | 10:24 a.m. | I heard! How exciting. I went through the company profile in the brochure you gave us. They could be our biggest client to date. |
Jullanna Lopez | 10:25 a.m | Yes. They have 6,000 employees and manufacturing plants in Thailand, Turkey, and Mexico. They also have suppliers in China, Germany, and Korea and generated over $2 billion in sales last year. |
Yvonne Bailey | 10:25 a.m | I can get to work on the marketing analysis for the presentation. I'd like to use the statistics in the brochure we were given. Do you think they're reliable? |
Jullanna Lopez | 10:26 a.m. | That would be fine, Yvonne. I think the figures are accurate. John and Eric, I'd like you to prepare the slideshow and handouts. Start immediately if you can. |
John Brenner | 10:27 a.m | Got it. It shouldn't take more than two days to finish. |
Eric Zalewski | 10:32 a.m. | Consider it done, Julianna. Are we going to run through the presentation before the appointment? |
Jullanna Lopez | 10:34 a.m. | Let's do a practice session on July 15. During the presentation, I'll give the main talk, and then you three can explain your roles briefly. After that, all four of us can answer any technical or financial questions they might have. Does that sound reasonable? |
Yvonne Bailey | 10:34 a.m. | I think that works for all of us. |
