During the morning, I will deliver a presentation to them that will highlight our key products and services, our profitability, and our plans for the future. (72) After lunch, I'll be taking them around our manufacturing plant and showing them each stage of our production process. (73) Please don't forget to make sure your desks and work areas are clean. We want to make the best impression possible.

Hello, I'm Ron Maxwell and I'm here to tell you about my company, Mobile Lunchbox. (80) We employ a large team of drivers who can deliver any type of food to any location. Customers can contact us by phone or through our Web site. (80) We take their orders and pass the details on to our drivers, who pick up the food from a restaurant. Of course, a small delivery charge is included. However, (81) until the end of this month, we will be lowering the charge by 50 percent. We've been operating in Brooklyn for almost three years, and it is my pleasure to announce that (82) we just opened a second, slightly smaller business location here in Manhattan last month. Now, I'll pass out some flyers for you all to look at.

(77) I'd like to welcome all our viewers to this week's episode of "What's Going On?" on the Zing cable TV network. As always we'll spend the next 20 minutes informing you about upcoming events in Portland and the surrounding area.

Hi, Tom. (92) I'm going to be busy with board meetings all afternoon, so I'd like you to do something important. As you know, Rexar Realty showed me an office space on Third Avenue recently, and they're waiting for my decision. I want you to contact John Allen, the real estate agent I've been dealing with, and tell him we'll take the office space. Don't e-mail him that will take too long. (93) The best way to reach him is at 555-7387. you'll find his business card on my desk. I'm really excited about moving to this office space. (94) It's closer to all our major clients and it's on major subway and bus routes. Please send me a message after you've spoken to the realtor. Thanks, Tom.
