Lesson 21
Susan gets a surprise call
Donna from the National Cookie Company calls Susan.
She wants to buy out Susan's Scrumptious Cookies.
Susan is very happy.
Hello
Good afternoon
Are you Susan , of Susan's Scrumptious Cookies?
Yes, I am
My name is Donna Jenkins,
And I'm calling from the National Cookie Company.
We're nust about your cookies,
And we'd like to sell them all over the country
Unfortunately, we're running on a shoestring out of our kitchen.
We can't make enough cookies for you
My company wants to buy the recipe
and the brand name from you
Oh yeah?
Why would you want to do that?
We have a successful track record of buying small companies and turning them into big ones.
In that case, I'm sure we can come to an agreement
Great . You just made my day!
You'll need to work out the nuts and bolts of the agreement with my husband.
He's the business manager
May I speak with him now
He's at a meeting
I'll have him get in touch with you when he returns
Good.
I look forward to speaking with him.
