公司初级英语会话9:产品销售报告
CP: So how have you broken the information down? PM: Each individual product is listed twice-once in its product category and once alphabetically. CP: I see. And how does the colour coding work? PM: Red means that we have a stock overhang for that product. CP: And blue presumably means that that product has sold well. PM: Actually, blue means that we sold out of it at some profit. CP: Right. And if it’s just in black? PM: So how many product lines have suffered fro an overhang? PM:94, which makes up about 8% of our product range. CP: that’s clearly too high; really we should be looking to have that figure. PM: The question is whether we discontinue all of the poor seller or just try to remarket them. CP: Well since we still have a lot of stock sitting in the warehouse we should try to remarketing them really. PM: At the other end of the scale, we sold out of 114 product lines. CP: Then we need to look at how quickly each one of those products sold out and up our repeat orders for them. PM: OK. There’s also a section at the end of the report about how our promotional offers went. CP: Yes, how did they go? PM: Well of the five major promotions we’ve done so far, four went really well according to the sales figures. CP: But the fifth one didn’t sell even with the promotional offer? PM: No, I think we’d better cut our losses with that one and discontinue it. |
