36、 everyone. Can we settle down and get going? Malcolm: Right, well first of all I would like to introduce a new member of our team who joined us yesterday, Nellie Hamilton. Nellie came highly recommended from our London office with the specific brief to help us with the launch of the “ Country Crumbl

37、es“ range. Nellie, this is Lee Chung, our Finance leader. Lee: Hello Nellie. Im looking forward to working with you. Malcolm: And this is Maria Esposito, our PR and Press Officer. Kevin: Hi, Nellie. Its good to meet you. Ive heard a lot about you! Nellie: Oh, nothing bad I hope. Maria: No, quite the

38、 reverse. I hear you did wonders with the image of that old “ Energy-Lite“ range they still market down in London. Nellie: Well, it went quite well I guess . Malcolm: OK, lets get on, shall we? The last member of our team is Kevin Whittaker, head of Sales. And Im going to ask Kevin to introduce the

39、“ Country Crumbles“ range and fill us in on where we are so far. This will be new information for Nellie but Im sure the rest of us will be very interested to see where Kevin thinks we are at the moment and where weve got to go. So over to you, Kevin. Kevin: Right, well, “Country Crumbles“ is a new

40、all-organic, all-natural product. There are no additives, no coloring and no E-numbers used in its manufacture whatsoever, so its an extremely healthy product. This means its potentially an up-market product too, with a high price tag. Now Ive got some charts here that will show the style of the bis

41、cuits and the ingredient specifications, but . Nellie: Sorry, Kevin, but isnt that going to be a problem? I mean trying to launch an market expensive product at a time when everyone is trying to cut back? Kevin: Let me finish, Nellie. What I was going to say was that our USP is that we are going to

42、market our range at a much more modest price point than the opposition. We all know that there are several ranges that endeavor to promote the “ healthy living“ image, either in market grocers, supermarkets or indeed health food shops. Our unique element is that we can match, or almost match, any of

43、 the opposition for healthy ingredients, reduced sugar and reduced fat and we can do this at a price that is not much more than our standard biscuit range. Nellie: Isnt that going to affect our profit margins? Malcolm: Yes, youve got a point there, Nellie. Kevin: Yes, but we have been extremely cann

44、y in our forward buying of wheat and other cereals, and in sweeteners and other ingredients too although not to such a large extent. This is due in the main to Lee and his financial acumen he really got the better of the futures markets a few months ago. The upshot is that we have a two-to-three yea

45、r supply of most of the essential ingredients at a price our competitors would give their eye and teeth for. And that will enable us to bring our costs down significantly, at least in the first year to eighteen months of production. After that, we hope the brand will be so well-established that we c

46、an gently raise the retail price in line with our materials costs. Malcolm: Yes, so thats the theory, Nellie. Any initial thoughts? Nellie: Well, I guess the first one is how much can we spend on advertising? Has anyone worked out an advertising and promotions budget yet? Lee: Well, initially we hav

47、e set aside 300, 000 for the initial campaign and a further 150,000 for a joint campaign with SuperKor. Nellie: Superkor? Malcolm: Ah, yes, the third element in this strategy, Nellie. As you know Im sure, Superkor is the largest supermarket chain in Scotland. They have 67 branches all over the count

48、ry, and they are interested in coming in on “ Country Crumbles“ as a joint venture with us promoting it in their stores, giving introductory offers to establish the brand, maybe some two-for-ones, that sort of thing. If they did come in with us, it would almost guarantee the success of the brand. Ne

49、llie: But theyre not certain yet. Kevin: No, Ive been liaising with them for the last three months but their marketing people really take some persuading. Were getting there though. Maria, er, excuse me, but is it really a good idea to spend a possible 450,(XX)on advertising a single product? Thats more than the entire advertising budget for last year. Malcolm: Well Maria, I have talked about it with the MD and the Chairman a
