A TYPICAL BUSINESS MEETING
Introductions

Meeting Chairman: If we are all here, let's get started. First of all, I'd
like you to please join me in welcoming Jack Peterson, our Southwest Area
Sales Vice President.
Jack Peterson: Thank you for having me. I'm looking forward to
today's meeting.
Meeting Chairman: I'd also like to introduce Margaret Simmons who
recently joined our team.
Margaret Simmons: May I also introduce my assistant, Bob Hamp.
Meeting Chairman: Welcome Bob. I'm afraid our national sales director, Anne Trusting,
can't be with us today. She is in Kobe at the moment, developing our Far East sales force.

Reviewing Past Business

Meeting Chairman: Let's get started. We're here today to discuss ways of improving
sales in rural market areas. First, let's so over the report from the last meeting which was held
on June 24th. Right, Tom, over t
Tom Robbins: Thank you Mark. Let me just summarize the main points of the last
meeting. We began the meeting by approving the changes in our sales reporting system
discussed on May 30th. After briefly revising the changes that will take place, we moved on to
a brainstorming session concerning after sales customer support improvements. You 'll find a
copy of the main ideas developed and discussed in these sessions in the photocopies in front of
you. The meeting was declared closed at 11.30.

Beginning the Meeting

Meeting Chairman: Thank you Tom. So, if there is nothing else we need to discuss, let's
move on to today's asenda. Have you all received a copy of today's agenda? If you don't mind,
I'd like to skip item 1 and move on to item 2: Sales improvement in rural market areas. Jack has
kindly agreed to give us a report on this matter. Jack?

Discussing Items
Jack Peterson: Before I begin the report, I'd like to get some ideas from you all. How do
you feel about rural sales in your sales districts? I suggest we go round the table first to get all
of your input.
John Ruting: In my opinion, we have been focusing too much on urban customers and
their needs. The way I see things, we need to return to our rural base by developing an
advertising companies to focus on their particular needs.
Alice Linnes: I'm afraid I can't agree with you. I think rural customers want to feel as
important as our customers living in cities. I suggest we give our rural sales teams more help
with advanced customer information reporting.
