7 Define Me!

Junko: Hello, Junko Mori speaking. How can I help you?
Andrea: Hi, Junko, it’s Andrea here from Red Band. I’m calling about our latest order.
Junko: Everything arrived OK, right? We got the delivery confirmation at our end.
Andrea: Yes, everything’s fine with the order. I’m calling about the invoice and the payment terms. I need a favor.
Junko: A favor? What do you need?
Andrea: This is a little, er ... difficult, but I need an extension on the payment terms. I know they’re usually 30 days,
but we’re having some cash flow problems. You’d really be helping us out if you could extend it to 60 days.
Junko: I’m not sure if I can do that, Andrea. We’ve got regulations at our end, and also have to manage our own
cash flow.
Andrea: I promise this won’t become the norm, Junko. Actually, I also want to place another new order. The same
size order as last time. It’s for an important customer and they pay on delivery.
Junko: I see. So, your cash flow problem will be solved after this new order is delivered.
Andrea: Exactly.
Junko: That sounds good. Hold on, Andrea. Let me see what I can do. Yes, I think we can make an exception this
time.
Andrea: That’s great, Junko. I appreciate your help.
Junko: And we appreciate your business, Andrea. It works both ways.
Andrea: Thanks again, Junko. Can you send me a quick email confirmation of the payment terms extension?
Junko: Sure, no problem. We’re happy to help you.
Andrea: Great. And I’ll email you the new order.
Junko: Thanks. I’ll keep an eye out for it. Talk to you soon.
Andrea: You too. Goodbye.

Heather Horner: Extract 8 - Steve Vance calls the Commission for New Towns.
Veronika Hyks: Good morning. CNT. How can I help?
Stuart Fox (employee at CNT): Ah, good morning. Steve Vance here from Reloc in London. We’re doing some
research for a Japanese company looking at sites for a new plant and I need some information.
Veronika Hyks: Right. What are you interested in?
Stuart Fox: Well, at the moment I need general information about the towns. Could you send me some information
packs?
Veronika Hyks: Yes. We’ve got packs about each town and they come with a video.
Stuart Fox: That sounds fine. Could you send me three or four of each pack?
Veronika Hyks: Mmm… Certainly.
Stuart Fox: And I’d like some more detailed material facts and figures, statistics on population, distances... That
sort of thing...
Veronika Hyks: Hmm… Well, we have statistical reports on the towns. Would you like me to send them with the
information packs?
Stuart Fox: Great. One thing - it’s rather urgent...
Veronika Hyks: No problem. I’ll send them by courier. Is there anything else I can help with?
Stuart Fox: Well, we’ll need to study one location in detail. Could we meet someone from CNT to discuss that?
