2-- Marketing has us set up with product launches in five major cities, as well as some sponsoring events throughout the year. All together, there will be 15 events.
1-- What kind of sponsoring are we talking about? I don't know how effective sponsorship really is…
2-- It's not what you're thinking. These events will give us a wider exposure than most. Take the tri-city marathon for starters. This is a highly publicized event. The television exposure alone will nearly double our customer awareness.
1-- Other than the marathon, what else is on the list?
2-- We've got a spot in Olympic Stadium sponsoring one of a team's equipment, then a rally for cancer research, and a connection to the inner-city education program.
1-- Sports, medicine, education… seems kind of random, don't you think?
2-- It might seem that way, but this events were all carefully chosen based on marketing research. These are the events that our customers and potential customers care about.

1--对新的产品系列安排了什么样的促销活动?
2--市场部已经决定在五大城市举行产品发布会,并且在一年内进行一些赞助活动.总共有15场活动.
1--什么样的赞助活动?我不知道赞助的真正效果…
2--不是你想的那样.这些活动只是给我们提供更多抛头露面的机会.我们一开始要赞助3个城市举办的马拉松比赛,这是个大家普遍关注的活动.光电视一项的上镜机会就会使我们的顾客意识增加几乎2倍.
1--除了马拉松比赛,还准备搞什么活动?
2--我们在奥林匹克体育馆得到赞助其中一个参赛队伍装备的机会,还有就是回复癌症研究,以及城市内部教育项目的联系.
1--体育,医药,教育…好像有点儿杂乱,你不这么看吗?
2--似乎是有点儿乱,但是这些活动都是在市场调查的基础上认真做出的选择..这些都是我们的顾客和潜在的顾客关心的活动.
