商務(wù)英語的情景口語練習
A: The demographic reports are in... From the looks of it, we're going to have to re-evaluate some of the content for our promotional events in different venues.
B:Why, what's the lowdown?
A: According to the report, our Boston crowd is quite different make-up from our Chicago folks. Our Boston consumers are mostly from mid-level to upper-class income levels, universtity or postgraduates, married no children, white collar... You know the kind. Chicago on the other hand is mostly mid to low income levels, single parent homes, blue collar... I think we're talking about two totally different target groups.
B: I have no idea there was that great of deviation between the two venues… To make our products sell, we have to take the target audience into account.
A: No kidding. We've got to come up with two completely different sales pitches to suit the needs of each groups.
譯文:
人口統(tǒng)計報告已經(jīng)出來了…從結(jié)果來看,我們要對一些不同指定地點的促銷活動內(nèi)容進行重新評估.
為什么?事實真相是什么?
根據(jù)報告內(nèi)容,從我們的顧客群體來看,波士頓與芝加哥大不相同.波士頓的顧客大多是中上等收入,大學(xué)或研究畢業(yè)生,已婚沒有孩子,白領(lǐng)階層…就是你了解的那種人.而芝加哥的顧客大多是中下收入水平,單親家庭,藍領(lǐng)階層…我認為他們是兩種完全不同商務(wù)目標群.
我不知道這兩個地區(qū)有這么大差別..為了賣好我們的`產(chǎn)品,我們一定要把目標消費者考慮進去.
不開玩笑.我們一定要想出兩套完全不同的推銷方式以適應(yīng)各個群體的需要.
