Hi, everyone! I am just writing to inform you that there has been a slight schedule change for the conference on Saturday. You may have already heard it on the news, but Richard Preyer suffered a heart attack on Thursday night and is recovering in Mercy Hospital. Unfortunately he will not be able to give his presentation as planned. I have been informed by the conference coordinator that Michel Tupper, the Director of Customer Relations at Fleet Media, will be presenting instead. He will talk about his 20 years of experience dealing with customer complaints under the title of “How to satisfy the Customer”. Also, if you have any special meal requests for the conference, please contact Mary Helmsford at 895 326 6547 by May 4th.

Approximately how many products will be featured?
Georgio Industry has recently introduced a new line of fashion accessories. The new product line was introduced at a fashion show in New York, and will be sold exclusively at Bloom’s Department Stores. Industry experts predict that the new line of handbags will become as popular as Georgio’s regular line of high-level-end wool, cashmere and silk garments. Georgio hopes that the handbags will boost product sales. For the first time in three years, Georgio reported a drop in sales. Last quarter’s sales figures dropped slightly below $75 million. Georgio also reported that it would look into additional distribution channels for all of its products.
