M: Hello, Linda.
W: Hello, Jim.
M: I'm thinking of investing in your new educational computer that your company has produced. And I'm interested in the advertising campaign.
W: Oh,thank you. What would you like to know?
M: I've read your campaign plan. It looks OK. I only have a couple of questions, mainly about where you intend to place these advertisements.
W: Well,as you can see from the plan, we intend to place them in family magazines and on early evening television. We want whole families-that's parents and children,to see them.
M: Um, but are you sure they will be the right families?
W: The right families? Well...
M: I mean, are you certain that the parents who read those magazines and watch those television programmes are the people who will buy an educational computer for their children?
W: Yes, we are quite certain. Our market research shows that....
M: Good. I'm sure you are right. And I see that you are thinking of placing advertisements in teenage magazines as well.
W: Yes. We intend to place them in some teenage magazines-the more serious ones, you know. And we are also thinking of putting them in Sunday newspapers, because it is likely that the whole family will be together on Sundays.
M: I see. But do you really think that parents and their children will like the same advertisements?
W: We've done research and we think they'll like our advertisements.
M: Good.
