* 确认达成的协议 Confirming agreements reached *

3. Dear Mr. / Ms,

Last Friday, when we were discussing the problems of defective containers. You suggested that I simply mail you a report each month on the number of return by customers rather than send the defective containers to you.

I plan to put this into effect at once. But, I first want to make sure that I understand you correctly. If I don’t hear from you within the coming week, I’ll assume that you approve.

Yours faithfully

尊敬的先生/小姐

二、 WRITE A SALES LETTER ACCORDING TO THE GIVEN INFORMATION:

1 产品测试表明，在夏天使用Glux牌空调能够使办公室工作人员的工作效率提高10%；

2 工作人员效率的提高意味着利润的增加，从而使成本能迅速收回；

3 产品的价格十分有竞争力，比市场上的同类产品低5%；

4 可以分期付款，期限为两年；

5 可以电话联系，我们将派技术人员上门安装服务。


REFERENCE SALES LETTER

Dear Sir:


How would you like to increase the efficiency of your office staff by 10% this summer?

Tests in over 80 business offices using Glux air conditioners have proved that staff efficiency in these offices increased by 10% after the Glux was installed. As the increased staff efficiency means greater profits, you will therefore get back your cost within a limited period of time.

The price of the air conditioner is very competitive, 5% lower than that of similar products in the market. If you would like to spread the cost, you have two years to pay up. In addition, improvements in the new model will also make your operating costs low.

Won’t you call and ask us to send you our technical personnel to identify your specific needs and do the installation? Each day’s delay costs you money.
