进行产品促销活动 Promotional Activities

在进行产品销售的时候，促销活动无疑起着很重要的推广作用，下面就是海伦和莱司特之间关于安排促销活动事项的对话。

Lester: As you know, the FastTrek 2000 is due for release next month. I think we've finally worked the kinks out.
正如你所知，FastTrek 2000 预定在下个月推出。我想我们已经解决了所有琐碎的问题。

Helen: Great. That's vital. Quality is the focus of the ad campaign. The boards must work well if they're going to be the cash cow we want them to be.
太好了。那很重要。品质是广告活动的焦点。如果要让这些适配卡如我们所愿成为摇钱树的话，就不能出乱子。

Lester: Let's go over our promotion plans again.
我们再看一遍促销计划。

Helen: OK. We have six major retailers running demonstrations at most branches. And our exhibition team is already on the road setting up for computer shows.
我们有六家主要的零售商在大部分的分店做展示。而且我们的展示队伍已经开始行动布置电脑展示了。

Lester: Good. What about print and radio?
很好，那印刷品和广播呢？

Helen: We've taken out full-page ads for two large trade magazines. And more important, our press releases have been well received.
我们在两家大的商业杂志刊登了全版广告。更重要的是，我们的新闻稿投放之后反响很好。

Lester: Any larger ads?
有再大一点的广告吗？

Helen：Yes. We're putting the same full-page ad in the Sunday edition of three major newspapers.
有的。我们在三大报的星期天版面放了相同的全版广告。

Lester：Sounds perfect.
听起来很周全。

Helen: But nothing ever works out as you want it. So I have a number of other tricks up my sleeve, as well.
不过有时候就是会事与愿违，所以我还有很多其它的妙计。
