GRAND CAY HOTEL
Nottingham-Darby Stockbridge Lane NC 125 FQ
Telephone: (06362) 04183
Telex: 585746
Dear Traveller,
In attempting to provide the best service possible for our guests, we've been faced with a problem. More and more often, it seems, people are engaging hotel accommodations without prior booking, and leaving without settling their accounts.
These "silent departures" have caused us - and other hotels as well - substantial cash losses. So far, at Grand Cay we've been able to absorb these losses without passing their cost on to our guests in the form of increased prices. But we're approaching our limit.
So, in order to prevent further losses of this sort, and to keep our prices as low as possible in this time of inflation, we are asking that - any person desiring overnight accommodation without a prior confirmed booking, please pay in advance the full cost of the accommodation.
Only by the introduction of such safeguards can the problem be alleviated. Please understand our position, and know that the service we will provide you will continue to be the best we can humanly offer.
Many thanks,
Godfrey Billingham
General Manager

Dialogue : Beautiful Packing
John: Glad to see you again, Sherman.
Sherman: Hi, glad to see you too.
John: Please, sit down.Would you like to try our new tea?
Sherman: Great! The main purpose of my visit today is to place another order of your Longjing tea.Actually, we will place regular orders from now.
John: Oh, it is a good news for us.I have the confidence that our tea won't make you disappointed.
Sherman: That is true.But before that, I'd like to talk something about the packing of Longjing tea.
John: Did you find any problems with the packing?
Sherman: No.My meaning is to improve the packing of your Longjing tea.There is no doubt that the quality of your tea is good.It is the packing that often gives the first impression on customers rather than the products themselves so we believe the packing is as important as the quality of the products themselves.
John: I agree with you.But could you be in details?
Sherman: Sure.Firstly, we believe the out-look of the package should attract customer.A beautiful packing is surely a great help in pushing sales.To be honest, your packing is not attractive enough to buyers.
John: Do you mean the color of the design should be more bright and eye-catching7
Sherman: Eye-catching with traditional Chinese style.You see, customers even can smell your culture before they open the box and drink the tea.As you know, one function of packing is to stimulate the buyer's desire to buy.
John: I'll pass your idea onto our designers and ask them to improve it.
Sherman: Thank you John.Secondly, if it is possible, we would like to advise you to improve your methods of packing.
John: Our packing is typical tin for tea.Any questions about this method of packing?
Sherman: I am thinking about how to let your packing speak for the good quality of the tea itself.Can we find some other packing ways to show off the appealing green and sl~ape of the tea?
John: We can leave an open window on packing.
Sherman: You get the point.
John: Thanks for your suggestion.
