Subject: Planning a distribution system
Dear Sara,
As the (1) manufacturer-producer, we must ensure that products reach (2) customers-consumers with maximum efficiency.
At present we use independent (3) distributors - retailers, but we should consider
better altematives. The following changes need consideration:
Cutting out (4) intermediaries-middleman - this would bring cost savings.
Larger (5) sales teams-sales forces.
Many more (6) reps-sales representatives.
Improved (7) shipment-dispatch systems.
Closer relationships with (8) dealers-wholesalers.
More links with (9) chains-multiples.
More use of (10) direct selling by post-mail order.
Using our website for more (11) selling over the Internet-e-business.
Please call me to discuss these points as soon as possible.
Regards
Alain Chenement
Logistics Supervisor

television now plays an important role in our life. it is difficult to say if it is good or bad for us.in the first place, television is an entertainment. but it is not only a convenient entertainment. for a family of three, four or five, for example, it is more convenient and less expensive to sit comfortably at home than to go out to find entertainment in other places. they don't have to pay for expensive seats at the theatre or cinema. they turn on the tv-set and can see interesting films, concerts, football matches.my friend told me that when his tv-set broke down, he and his family found that they had more time to do things and to talk to each other. there are other arguments for and against television.very often the programmes are bad. sometimes they show too much violence in films and news programmes.there is also too much pop music and ads. ads on the whole are convenient for grown-ups.
