【参考范例】

A: Now, we have to work out a plan to deal with the old stock which has been just sorted out from our warehouse. We don’t have much time left; because the new products are suppose to arrive in early next month.

B: So we have two weeks left and we must hurry up.

C: Most our stocks are clothes and accessories, and they have gone out of fashion.

B: Yes, fashions changes quickly. So, to appeal our customers, we must offer great discount for our stock. How much discount would be appropriate?

A: What do you think to a 50% discount? It’s Christmas season, a big sale time, discount is everywhere, so we must offer bigger discount than usual.

B: Yes, I agree with you. The most important thing at this time is to sell off the stock and make space for our new products.

C: You two have a point here. Anyway, our products are end-of-range and need to be cleared out soon. But I am wondering whether we will offer the same discount on all products?

A: I prefer the same discount because people nowadays don’t like to bother themselves with calculating and differentiating. They are attracted by a 50% discount. And if they find our products are actually offered with different discounts, they would feel being cheated.

B: Yes, I feel the same way. 50% discount is easy to catch attention and easy to handle. We don’t want to get our sales staff confused, do we?

A: All right then, 50% discount for all our stock. Now let’s move onto our last term. How can we inform our customers the clearance sale?

C: There are many ways to inform our customers. For example, we can advertise our sale on TV, radio and newspapers.

B: I don’t think we have time for that, you know, there are just two weeks left, and it takes at least a week to contact the concerned department s to have our advertisement finally put on media. Then just a week left. I’m really not sure how much effect it will have on customers.

A: Absolutely. And the advertising rates are high. I don’t think we can afford that. Our stock is already sold at a loss.

C: Yeah, what you said is true.

A: There’s an alternative, we can print leaflets and distribute them on the street and in the communities. In this way we can attract a lot of people’s attention at a low cost.

C: Good idea, and we may also send emails to our customers or publish the news of our sale on line, and it’s particular free!

B: Wonderful! It seems everything has been work out for selling our old stock.
