    Good morning, everyone. It’s nice to see so many of you here today. I hope you can all hear me OK.

The subject of my presentation today is our marketing plan for the next three years.

Basically, there are three main points I want to talk about. If you look at the first slide, you can see them listed there. First, I am going to tell you about our new product range aimed at the teenage market. Secondly, I’ll talk about each of the products and our plans for marketing them. I’d like to talk briefly about the competition.

Ok, let’s start with the first point, our new product range …

  Good afternoon and thank you for making the effort to be here with us today. My name is Rachel Rawlings and I am responsible for public affairs. What I’d like to do today is _________ our recent corporate campaign. This _______ talk will hopefully _______ a springboard for discussion. I’m going to _______ the corporate campaign from three _______ : firstly, the customers; secondly, the financial institutions; and _______, the shareholders. If you have any _______ , just interrupt me as I _______. Your point of view may well be different, and we’d like to _______ from you.

  

7.Study how parts of the report are connected. Pay attention to the use of linking words:

  The first thing to be said about these products is that they are very diverse. Well, let’s take our premium export lager, Hohenbrau. Now this product has always been positioned at the top end of the market. It has a high price and it’s only available through selected retail outlets. Altogether, it’s quite exclusive.

On the other hand, our Rutter’s bitter has an entirely different personality. It’s brewed in a traditional way. We put a lot of malt into it, which gives it a rich golden colour. As far as I know,it has always been sold at a medium price, and is available through most supermarkets.

So, as you can see, these are two very different products. One an up-market German-type Pilsener, the other a very English bitter. One point for discussion, then, is whether we should maintain such different products in our range.

Let’s move on to marketing, and I only want to raise one issue.

 

Notes to the text:

 

retail outlet - торговая точка розничных продаж - торговельна точка роздрібної продажі

to brew - варить пиво - варити пиво

malt - солод - солод
