Memo #2

TO: Ed Ditter

DATE: 2 MAY

FROM: Ike Cantwright

SUBJECT: Marketing Meeting

Hi Ed,

Hope this email finds you well. 

As you may remember from our meeting in last November, when we planned to meet again on May 18 this year, as I thought I would be back from the National Sales Conference in Bahamas, instead of Topeka, by that time. However, I am sorry to say that I have to reschedule our meeting. 
I will need to stop by and meet up with our team in St. Louis for the Satellite Project on my way back, and I don’t know if I would be back in town until 20th. 

I tried to schedule the meeting on phone with your assistance, who, however, wasn’t sure with your schedule either. So please let me know if meeting on the 20th fits your time or you would rather propose otherwise.

Please feel free to pick any restaurant that you like. 

I am looking forward to our reunion.

Best,
Ike

Memo #3

FROM: Patricia Brasher

TO: Art Proofing Group

SUBJECT: Proofing

I want to thank everyone on the team for your hard work during my leave. I appreciate your flexibility with your time.

I have identified the following areas where we could improve our efficiency,

·         All artwork proofing  should be following this order: color keys/color separation, thermals, POS, and at last rule copy.

·         We should prioritize proofing artworks that have been here the longest

·         To ensure a better accuracy and avoid unnecessary delay, please do not try to group and proof artworks by brands.

Thank you for your cooperation!

Mrs.Ditter,

            When we last met in November, we were planning to meet again on the 18th of  May. I'm  going to attend National Sales Conference in the Bahamas. Also, I would like to spend some time there. So I thought I would be back by 18th, but I have to stop off in St.Louis on my back to attend business meetings about our Satellite Project. 

            I talked to your assistant but she wasn't sure about your schedule.I was wondering if your schedule could be available on the 20th of  May.

       

            Please let me know .I look forward to seeing you soon.

Regards, 

 Ike Cantwright

Assignment Week 3 - Week 2 Email (revised)

From: Jessica
To: Beisi Li

Subject: Women Deliver Chinese

Hi Beisi,

Thanks so much for helping out with this – it’s excellent!

When you get a chance, can you just quickly explain the difference between Traditional and Simplified Chinese (and who uses what)? Sorry! This is new territory for me.

Thanks again! Really appreciate your support on this.

Best,

Jessica

From: Beisi Li

To: Jessica

Subject: re: Women Deliver Chinese

Hi Jessica,

 Sorry for getting back to you late on your question about Simplified and Traditional Chinese.  

Chinese government started to promote simplified Chinese characters in Mainland China in the 1950s to increase literacy. However, Chinese-speaking regions that were not under the jurisdiction of Chinese government at that time, for example, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan, didn’t go through this process, so they are still using traditional Chinese. So you would use the Traditional version to do outreach media in these regions.

In terms of other Chinese-speaking Asian countries, e.g. Singapore and Malaysia, they have also been promoting Simplified Chinese. Singapore is using Simplified Chinese now, while Malaysia is using both.

But the reason that I revised the Chinese promotion note you sent over in the first place, was because the translation was too bad. I guess it might be translated by Google.

Please let me know if there is any other questions.

Thanks!

Beisi

I received a mail from Chris about chair for Therapy Room

Hi Hiromi,

Have you been able to find a chair yet?

Best,


Here is my reply:

Re: chair for Therapy Room

Hello Chris,

Sorry I should have told you earlier. I picked two chairs and showed Ms Y before she left for Japan. She liked one of the chairs, so I asked her if she could see it, but I didn't think she had a time before she left. She said if it took 8-10 weeks to got a chair, which usually did when you ordered a chair, it was too much. However the chair that she likes is ready made, so that you can receive 1-2 weeks after you order and price is not bad.
Now I am selecting a color of wall and drawing interior images.

Here is the link of the chair:

Thank you,

MEMORANDUM

TO: Ed Ditter

SUBJECT: Marketing Meeting

DATE:  2nd May

FROM: Ike Cantwright

Way back last November when we first got around to planning

this meeting, I thought I would be back from the National Sales

Conference-it's going to be in the Bahamas this year, rather

than  Topeka-and I'm looking forward to getting a good tan,

too. Well, anyway,  I figured  I could easily be back in town by the

18th, but now I've got to stop off  in St. Louis on the way back, to

talk to some of our people about the Satellite Project. So  I'm not

sure now whether I  will be back by the 18th, or even the 19th'

I'm just not sure how bad the situation is there. So what about

the 20th? I've tried reaching you on the phone, but your assistant

 couldnt speak to your schedule, so  I figured I'd better send you

this. Let me know what's best for you. Of course, when  I get  in

I'll be brushing sand off me.

Know any good restaurants there?

Order a wedding cake

I ordered a wedding cake for my friend because she went back to Japan for 3weeks. She did not have enough time to order it. The following is correspondence between a dessert shop and me.

Dear Chikalicious,

My friends will throw a small wedding party on March 3rd and planning
to order a wedding cake. However they are going back to Japan from
January 28th to February 17th. When they come back, there are only two
weeks until the party. So instead of them, I would like to ask some
questions.

1. When should we place our order?
2. We would like to have a cake for 25 people. Is it possible to make
three tiers cake?
3. Is there a minimum order?
4. What kind of flavor or design can we choose? They want a very
simple design cake.

We would really appreciate it if you could answer these questions.
Thank you in advance,

Hiromi

We had a several conversation in email. Then I finalized my order and received final quote.

Hiromi-san--

$261.30 + delivery (if applicable)

Send deliv address for final pricing.

Thank you,

ChikaLicious Desserts




Dear ChikaLicious Desserts

I have a question, last time I asked the price, it was $190.53 for 25 guests. Considering of that, $261.30 seems a little bit expensive for 30 guests. Why is the price going up this much?

Here is the address to deliver:

Mr. Y' s Apartment

111 West 11^th Street, Apt 1A

NYC, NY 10011

Thank you,

Hiromi
