答案Question 2 Sample C Sales Report To Managing Director, I am so sorry that our Product A met sales winter during the past six months. The sales turnover and profit declined so much. I have analized this matter, here is my report about product A’s sales problem. Product A is our early one. Since it was pushed to market, it has been 3 years, at the beginning of saling product A, we sold it by ourselves, but recently we take a strategy of giving it to distributors for saling because of our cost-cut. For the past six months, our distributors have sold product A badly. Our product A has been taken over by product B of Co. B and product C of Co. C. The problem is serious because product A contribute to 1/3 of our turnover. There are three points about sales problem of product A. One is our product A is old one, product B of Co. B and product C of Co. C are new products, our product A cannot meet needs of customers, the second one points is that our distributors’ work are so bad, they sold product A but didn’t regard it as important product, they put so few workers and so little energy to product A. And Co. B and Co. C give these distributors more commission than ours. The third point is world economy slow down. After 911 in USA. world economy is facing many big problems and troubles, our order of product A from USA and Euro decline so much that it is only 80% of normal level. We should take some methods to change these disadvantages. Firstly, we should design new product take the place of product A. Secondly, we should change some distributors, we need some new distributors who can give their all energy to our product sales. Finally, we should go to other market and product, instead of depending on USA and Euro market only.

Findings. 2.1 Recent sales pattern This type of fax machine is largely sold by three large distributors in the country. Orders on line are also accepted from five years ago. 2.2 Factors on the low sales Since the attack 911, the target market American is depressed and the consume power is getting lower and lower. Our rival company Oval has launched a new type of fax, which is more fashion and user-friendly. What the most important thing is that its price is twice lower than ours. Other small and medium companies selling their products on line or by mail order save a lot of money on delivery. They’re competitive as well.

Conclusions and Recommandations 3.1 Conclusions According to the above findings, the services should be improved and the cost-cutting measures should be set. 3.2 Recommandations An extra budget is essential to be given to the service department. The sales pattern also needs to be expanded, not only selling by the distributor, but also selling on-line or by mail orders. The sales pattern also needs to be expanded, not only selling by the distributor, but also selling on-line or by mail orders. The R&D department should put more effort to research a new type machine meeting customers’ needs and wants. The Asia can be set as the target marking with its lower-cost labour and large market demand.

Question 4 Sample G Proposal on how to deal with visitor complaints To: Paul Smith(Chief Executive) From: Katharina Kremer Over the last three months we have received several complaints from people visiting our company. There are two main reasons for these: First, there were complaints about the friendlyness of our employees who welcome our visitors and show them our production facilities. Obviously they tend to be unfriendly and do not like to answer questions. Secondly, we do not provide information material for our visitors and the staff showing them around is not able to answer all questions. It is therefore recommended to design information packages for our visitors including details and figures on our production facilities and giving a general overview about the history of our company. Additionally it is suggested to talk to our staff dealing with the visitors and assess if a training course on how to deal with visitors is necessary. Band 4 Fairly natural use of language, although not error free. Good internal cohesion. A positive effect on the target reader. Sample H INTRODUCTION The purpose of this report is to find solutions to the complaints that our organisation has recently received. FINDINGS It has been found that the attitude to external callers and visitors has been somehow unpleasant recently. In addition to this, some clients have had some problems with our newest product and our After Sales Service has not been capable of prividing them with a quick and effective solution. SOLUTIONS All the staff needs to be aware of the importance of our visitor and our customers. Our clients are our main asset therefore we should focus on treating them the best way possible. Their satisfaction is our success and for this matter need to change out current company’s phylosophy. We ought to create a good impresion considering that our visitors are only prospects and we want them to become major clients. The changes will mainly affect after Sales Service staff, Sales department staff and the recepcionist. CONCLUSION Taking all the previous information into consideration it is vital for us to improve the after Sales Service department using the latest Technology and sorting our customers problems rapid and effectively. The recepcionist is the first contact that the client has with our company therefore he or she should be treated nice and politely regardless of their importance. Band 1 The candidate appears to have misinterpreted the question, which results in content omissions and some irrelevance. This has a very negative effect on the target reader, resulting in a band 1.
