The Office - Driving Sales


A: All right, people. We’re holding this meeting today because we’ve got to do something about our sales, and we need to do it NOW! I want concrete solutions. How do you intend to drive sales...Roger?


B: Well, in fact, we’re the most expensive in the market,so maybe we need to lower our prices to match the competitors?


A: Lower our prices? Not very creative. It’ll never fly with Swan. What kind of thinking is that? Geez.

Anybody else have a better plan? Natalie?


C: Um, perhaps, um, a sales promotion 1. Maybe a two-for-one offer, or something like that!


A: What? That’s the same thing. Bad idea. Really bad idea. Dammit people come on! Think! The CEO will be here any minute.


D: Do we have any ideas yet?


C: Yes Mr. Swan, we were kind of considering a twofor-one offer to get more competitive 2.


D: A two-for-one promotion? Hmm. I kind of like the sound of that. It sounds like something we should consider.


A: Yeah, exactly. Just what I was thinking! In fact,that’s a brilliant idea! I’m glad we thought of that.Very creative.
