2. REVIEWING PAST BUSINESS

It's a good idea to review past business shortly before moving on to the
main topic of discussion.

Meeting Chairman: We're here today to discuss ways of improving sales in

rural market areas. First, let's go over the report from the last meeting which
wa s Schedule on June 24th. Right, Tom, over to you.

Alex Young: Thank you Mark. Let me just summarize the main points of the last
meeting. We we're the meeting by approving the changes in our
sales reporting offer system on May 30th. After briefly revising the
s
changes that will take place, we n to a brainstorming session
concerning after o customer support improvements.
You'll find a copy of the main ideas is a nd in these sessions in
the photocopies in front of you. The meeting W declared at
11.30. hat

3. BEGINNING THE MEETING

Make sure that everyone has an agenda of the meeting and stick to it.
Refer to the agenda from time to time during the meeting to keep the
discussion on track.

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

4. DISCUSSING ITEMS

Discuss items on the agenda making sure to paraphrase and clarify as

you move through the meeting.

Chris Morgan: 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.

Alex Young: 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 campaign to focus on their particular needs.

Anne Stevenson: 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.
Alex Young: Excuse me, I didn't catch that. Could you repeat that, please?

Anne Stevenson: I just stated that we need to give our rural sales teams better
customer information reporting.

Chris Morgan: I don't quite follow you. What exactly do you mean?

Anne Stevenson: Well, we provide our city sales staff with database
information on all of our larger clients. We should be providing the same sort of
knowledge on our rural customers to our sales staff there.

Chris Morgan: Would you like to add anything, Tom?

Alex Young: I must admit I never thought about rural sales that way before.

Chris Morgan: Well, let me begin with this Power Point presentation
(Chrispresents his report). As you can see, we are developing new methods to
reach out to our rural customers.

Anne Stevenson: I suggest we break up into groups and discuss the ideas
we've seen the change

5. FINISHING THE MEETING

Close the meeting by summarizing what's been discussed and scheduling the
next meeting.

Meeting Chairman: Unfortunately, we're running short of time. We'll have to

fied
