Unit 5 书写商务邀请函的快速指南
书写及发送邀请函给客户、潜在的客户或同事,邀请其参加重要的商务活动,需要谨慎对待。尽管其中蕴涵着巨大的商机,但如果处理不当,会造成不尽人意的结果。以下的指南 有助于你制作出专业、高效的商务邀请函:
1)个性化 --- 尽管有点麻烦, 但这是值得的。以收信人的名开始你的邀请函,例如,“亲爱的乔治”远比“亲爱的女士或先生”的效果更好。人们都喜欢读到自己的名字。
2)简洁 --- 人们都很忙,喜欢简短、高效的邀请函,清楚、简洁地说明何事,何地点,何时。
3)新意 --- 运用你的幽默感或使用引人发笑的、与你业务相关的言语。这样可以引起别人对你所邀请的事情的兴趣。
4)略施小惠 --- 这么做说明你懂得被邀请人的时间的宝贵。邀请他们参加一个免费的午餐或抽奖。这样做还可以把你的客人留到活动结束。
5)确定一个方便的时间 --- 尽可能地提早做出安排,以便留给被邀请人更多的机会腾出空闲。
6)添加RSVP信息 --- 如果你需要知道有谁将会参加活动,就在邀请函的底部写上RSVP(请回复),例如,可以在‘RSVP’后面提供你的电话号码。
7)提醒 --- 在活动开始的一周前和三天前,发送电子版的邀请函作为提醒,例如,主题行为“Bluesky午餐倒记时---还有三天啦!”
8)确定言语风格 --- 邀请函的语言应该是正式的呢?还是非正式的呢?一封正式的邀请函,可以这样措辞:“Stanley博士携Stanley女士期望您的参与”,而较为随意的便条可以说“请参加到我们的活动吧”。

当你招待国外代表团时,应该考虑以下要点:
? 了解来宾国家的习俗,并且准备好及时去迎接; ? 确保明白来宾的访问目的和他们期望的行程路线; ? 联系即将访问的部门;

Unit 8 组织会议
会议的组织颇具挑战性,合理的会议安排是业务会议实现成效的必备程序。下面提供一些重要的考虑因素和实用的建议作为会议组织过程的指导。
组织会议前最首要问题是“该会议所预期的结果及会议的目标是什么?”理清这些问题的答案并记录下来。
组织会议需要回答的第二个重要问题是“什么人适合参加该会?”你应该确定与会人数并邀请额外的人员提供有用的专家建议、见解或有关实现会议目标的第一手资料。
谁来主持对于会议的成功也很重要。得力的主持可以让会议沿着预定的路线进行、维持积极的会议气氛并确保不会有人趁机利用或破坏会议,帮助所有与会人员对会议作出最有效的贡献。
接下来的步骤是确定会议的时间和地点。当然,你安排的时间必须保证所有或者至少大部分与会者都有空参加。至于会议地点,会议的圆满很大程度上取决于所选择的地点。要考虑到与会人数、会议的主题和目标。预留一些非正式的交流时段让大家放松一下也是明智之举。
明确的议程能实现许多用途,无论是在会前还是会后。议事日程可以告知与会者在什么时间该做什么并能让大家提前做好准备。议程是保持会议目标专一和富有成效的必备工具。
最后要考虑的是住宿和交通。会前要发出邀请或通知告知与会人员食宿地点、如何抵达酒店和会场地点,以及食宿和交通费用是否由会议组织方还是与会者自行支付。
