Re: Spring Sale

Our large Spring Sale begins next week. Before the store opens on Monday, all sale items should be placed on racks near the _____(1) area.

This ensures that customers will see them right before they pay for their purchases. We expect large crowds in the store during the sale, so it will be important to _____(2) order.

This means picking up any items that fall on the floor or end up on the wrong shelf, and making sure that all items are clearly marked with the correct price. Remember, a neat and organized store _____(3) more business.

People with a flexible schedule are needed to work at a local hotel. In order to keep up with the increase in customers we receive during the summer holidays, Sparton Hotel is looking for individuals who can work in a variety of positions, including cleaning services, restaurant staff, and hotel reception. All candidates must be available to work seven days a week. No experience in the hospitality business is required, but a college degree and at least 2 years' work experience in the customer service industry is preferred. Interested individuals should fax a copy of their resume, along with a cover letter and one letter of recommendation, to our main offices. The fax number is 1-555-3269. Successful applicants will be contacted by telephone to schedule a personal interview. Compensation depends on the candidate's work experience and interview evaluation.

Sandra Marcus named CFO of Crantel, Inc. Crantel Inc. has announced that it has chosen former Kentoch CFO, Sandra Marcus, to head its revamped financial element starting July 3. Vice-president of public relations, Nick Tucker, said yesterday. "Ms. Marcus has had enormous success turning Kentoch into a highly profitable company, and we look forward to adding Sandra to our troubled company into the premier toy manufacturer of Scotland." "Sandra Marcus has demonstrated her ability time and time again by increasing sales, revenue, and consumership." Tucker went on to say, "We are excited about working with Ms. Marcus and feel confident that she can provide the aid and inspiration needed to turn Crantel into a profitable company again."

Crantel, Inc. has experienced a number of successful years since its inception in 1984. Up until the late 1990s, the toy manufacturer was among the top 5 in all of Europe and had expanded toy lines into Asia and North America. Sales troubles began when a lawsuit emerged from a customer claiming that one of Crantel's most popular toys had nearly killed her 8-year-old son. The suit was settled, and the mother admitted that her son may have caused the accident himself. The public was not forgiving, however, and the company has since been significantly troubled from the negative publicity.

Sandra Marcus was able to bring Kentoch out of financial ruins after a similar public catastrophe in the late 80s and became a highly recognized and respected financial guru. Marcus left Kentoch in 2001 to host her own financial program on the World News Network. After she retired from the program in January, former CFO, John Thompson, retired from Crantel and actively pursued Marcus for the position.

Subj: Conference

Max,

I have been working on the arrangements for our upcoming conference. I've looked into the City Convention Center, and I think it is the most convenient location. It is close to public transportation and hotels. The accommodations are also excellent. The rooms are large, and we can reserve up to ten meeting rooms. However, the price is almost 50% more than we agreed we could spend. The other choice is the Mayfield Hotel. Many associations hold their conventions there. It is a nice place, and the price is reasonable. However, it is not close to the subway. Also, it is much smaller than the Convention Center. I think we could only get three meeting rooms. Would that be enough? Please get in touch with me today to let me know what you think. I need to reserve a place soon.

Martha,

In regard to selecting a location for the conference, I think the Convention Center is better than the Mayfield Hotel. The hotel is much too small. Remember, we plan to hold at least five sessions at a time. We couldn't do that at the hotel. We expect more people to take part in the convention this year, so it is important to have a space that can accommodate everyone. About the price, I think we can rearrange the budget a bit in order to be able to pay for it. So go ahead and reserve the space at the Convention Center.

Dear Mr. Hanks,

Last month I purchased a used Capri 1025 from you. At first, the car seemed like a great deal, especially with the $300 dollar discount I received. I bought the car because I have to travel a long distance to work each day, and with gas being so expensive these days I needed a car that was more fuel-efficient. You were right; the smaller car did save me about $30 in gas each week. Unfortunately, after about two weeks, the car started making a clanking noise if I went faster than 50 kilometers per hour. I took it to my mechanic, Smooth Rides, and had them evaluate the problem. They determined that the entire engine would need to be replaced, due to a crack down the middle of it. In total, the labor and engine parts will cost about $1,000. I assume that since I only purchased the car a month ago, I am well within the 2-year limit to the guarantee and Al's Autos will cover the cost of the repairs. Please contact me at 852-321-6547 if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

Floyd Baker
