MEMO TO: Max Dillon, Sales Manager
FROM: Andrea J. Hayes
DATE: February 25, 201_
SUBJECT: New-Venture Proposal
I propose the purchase or lease of a van to be used as a mobile bookstore. We could then use this van to generate sales in the outlying towns and villages throughout the state.
We have been aware for quite some time that many small towns around the state do not have adequate bookstore facilities, but the economics of the situation are such that we would not be able to open a comprehensive branch and operate it profitably. However, we could afford to stock a van with books and operate it for a few days at a time in various small towns throughout the state. As you are probably aware, the laws of this state would permit us to acquire a state-wide business license fairly easily and inexpensively.
With the proper advance advertising (see attached sample), we should be able to generate much interest in this endeavour. It seems to me that this idea has much merit because of the flexibility it offers us. For example, we could tailor the length of our stay to the size of the town and the amount of business generated. Also, we could customize our inventory to the needs and interests of the particular locales.
The driver of the van would act as the salesperson, and we would, of course, have copies of our complete catalogue so that mail orders could be taken as well. Please let me have your reactions to this proposal. If you wish, I can explore the matter further and generate cost and sales estimates in time for your next manager’s meeting.

Subject: Internship with Daisy’s Delectables
Dear Ms. O’Connor,
I recently spoke with you about the possibility of a summer internship at Daisy’s Delectables. As mentioned, I am interested in an internship that would allow me to work as an event planner for the bakery, coordinating product tastings and catered events.
I enjoyed our phone interview and wanted to let you know that I am still very interested in this position. I feel as though my experience event planning for my university’s dance team has given me the skills necessary to succeed in this position.
You can reach me by email or phone to further discuss this opportunity. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely,
Jennifer Marke
