#Person1#: Sir, I am very glad to tell that we have successfully registered the trademark for our new product. It is the time to think of some effective promoting strategies. We are beginning to get more attention from overseas. #Person2#: Well done, Fred. Do you know something useful for our promotion for our I-series? #Person1#: OK, Let me see. I suppose we must strengthen our promotion, because our brand is still new to some consumers. Maybe we should start our advertising program with our local and overseas distributors simultaneously, because they stand on a better position for selecting the best ways to advertise in market places. Besides, the advertisement fund can encourage them to spend more attention on advertising our products. #Person2#: That is a good idea to start with. I also think the mass media is also a good approach for advertising. #Person1#: Yes, the mass media has wider influence. One of my classmates works in an advertisement company. I can get help and inspiration from him. And we can also try some less expensive approaches of advertising, such as on-line sales.
