Questions 166-169 refers to the following e-mail message.
From: Susan Ireland
To: Renee Powers, Human Resources Manager
Subject: Evaluation of Franklin Group ‘Meetings’ Seminar
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Renee,
As you know, I attended the Franklin Group ‘Meetings’ Seminar last week. It was well
worth the time spent, and I believe it should be made available to all supervisory
employees.
The complete title is “Improving the Effectiveness of Business Meetings”. There are two
formats available: a public seminar or a kit for in-house presentations. The cost for
attending the seminar is $35 per person. The kit costs $500 and has enough material to
train 50 employees.
Obviously, purchasing the kit is more cost-effective, and after attending the seminar, I
feel that I am sufficiently prepared to run an in-house workshop. Therefore, I would
recommend purchasing the Franklin Group Meetings kit to help our managers and
supervisors hold more efficient meetings. I brought back some literature from the
seminar that I will send to your office today.
If you like this idea, please contact me so that we can discuss possible dates for the
workshop.
Thanks.
Susan

MEMO
To: All Branch Managers
From: Sunshine Holidays Marketing Division
Re: Customer Preferences: Competition

As a result of recent research, we have decided to launch a staff competition.


500 British people were recently surveyed by Sunshine Holidays about their vaction
plans for the coming summer. 100 people in each of five different age ranges were
surveyed. They were asked to indicate which countries they planned to visit out of four
possible choices. The choices given were Italy, France, Britain, and Spain. It seems that
as they get older, people tend to choose not to travel overseas. As we can see from the
table, the older participants chose Britain as their first choice to visit. When asked about
this choice, they gave several reasons, including fears about health problems and access
to medical care, worries about communicating in a foreign language, and the desire to
spend time with their grandchildren during the school vacations. The youngest group of
participants chose Spain as their favorite. They said it was because of Spain’s reputation
as a fun and lively place with beautiful beaches. However, France was the most popular
destination for all age groups. This is because of its close location to Britain.
We want to increase the number of older customers visiting Spain (target A), and the
number of younger visitors traveling within Britain (target B). For this reason, we RE
launching a staff competition. Please submit your ideas to increase the number of
customers in either target group A or target group B. The two lucky winners will win an
all-expenses paid trip to Bermuda.
