3、MAKING APPOINTMENTS

So, Mr. Smith when can we meet? I'm busy all next week. Maybe the week after? Talk to my secretary.

You print your catalogue this month, don't you? Yes.

Could you possibly see the product this week? It won't take long.

Okay. Be here Wednesday morning, eight sharp! I'll give you twenty minutes. Thank you Mr. Smith. I'll see you on Wednesday morning at eight o'clock. Well done! ***

Good morning, Geraldine. Good morning, Mr. Harris. ***

Jenny, could you ring up Mr. Sakai's office in Japan. We need to set up a meeting. Not this week, but the meeting must be before November 3rd. I'd like Kate, Don Bradley and Derek to be there. ***

Clive Harris. Clive, it's Derek.

Hello Derek. What can I do for you?

Could you come down to the development workshop for a second? Derek, I'm busy.

Come on. It'll take ten minutes.

Alright, I've got five minutes. I'm seeing Kate McKenna at eleven. ***

Hello, could I speak to Mr. Sakai's secretary. This is Jenny from Bibury Systems in the UK. Mr. Harris would like to arrange a meeting with Mr. Sakai. I wonder if you could check Mr. Sakai's European itinerary. ***

Yes. Yes. Yes, I will make sure he gets the message. Alright. Goodbye.

Mr. Harris, I've just had a call from Mr. Peter's secretary. I'm afraid he's going to be fifteen minutes late for his appointment this afternoon. Okay. That's no problem.

Good morning, Bibury Systems. Well, Mr. Green can see you at eleven o'clock on Monday. Is that alright? No, I'm sorry, on Tuesday he has a meeting in the morning. Is the afternoon possible? Alright. Thank you. Hello, Bibury Systems. ***

What do you think?

We'll miss the launch date. No, it'll be on schedule. February 15th?

It will be ready for February 15th. We must meet the deadline. ***

Kate, have you got a minute? What's wrong, Jenny?

I have a problem. I'm trying to arrange the meeting with Mr. Sakai. He is in the UK for these three days. The first, the second and the third of November, but he is only available on the first and the second. That's the Monday and the Tuesday. Clive Harris is in Scotland on the Tuesday and Don can't make Monday morning. And you and Derek are both in meetings on Monday afternoon. What am I to do?

Set up an evening meeting?

No, Mr. Sakai's secretary says he has dinner engagements on the second and the third.

Monday evening?

Mr. Sakai arrives at the airport at nine o'clock on Monday morning and it's a nine hour flight. Monday evening is not a good time for the meeting. He'll be jet lagged.

And Derek and I will have to change our arrangements. May I see my diary? Change our ten o'clock meeting with Mr. Clark. Make it at half past eight on the 4th.

You're giving a dinner party on the 4th. 8.30 am, not 8.30 pm.

That's going to be a long day. ***

Good morning!

Hi, Edward. How's it going? It's going very well! You look very happy.

I am happy! I met Mr. Smith this morning at 8.30. That's very good! And? Mr. Smith liked Big Boss. Good.

But he didn't like the name. Why not?

He says Big Boss isn't a good name. He wants to call it Tycoon Tim. But he thinks Big Boss will sell.

Well done! It's your first marketing success.
