...and business- to- business (B2B) relationships. Because companies are beginning to compete aggressively for growing online e-commerce, business communication has become less formal as businesses vie to expedient electronic sales information more efficiently. Remaining relevant in today's business world requires that companies develop effective communication tactics to embrace not only the individual customer media but also industrial customer media as well. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to illustrate how the business communication process works, by analyzing three business communication messages to determine the sender, message, intention, technology, noise, receiver, and feedback contained within the message. Additionally, a sample business -to -business message will be written requesting a working relationship with another company, followed by an unfavorable response to that message explaining the reasons for denying the request. Business- to- Business E-mail Business-To-Business e-mailing is a short and concise form communication between two or more separated business entities by way of the Internet (Roebuck & McKenney, 2006). The business- related messages must be poignant, clear, and concise to avoid any mistakes relating to revenue, product, and time...

...Chapter 1, you will learn that communication skills are critical in the workplace and that technical writing is used in virtually every work environment. For this discussion, locate a technical document from your workplace or from home or the Internet, preferably one that might be found in your career field. Note that Figure 1-1 (page 4) provides a list of technical communication examples. Using the five goals and features of technical communication listed in the textbook (page 4), describe how the document addresses these characteristics. Then, discuss whether or not you feel the document is successful in its overall goal. Provide examples from the document to illustrate. If possible, share the document by posting a link or a PDF of the sample used. Audience Culture and Analysis (graded) As our text states, “one cardinal rule governs all on-the-job writing: Write for your reader, not for yourself” (page 41). This requires a solid audience analysis. As part of this analysis, you must also consider the audience's cultural background, particularly in light of today's global society. For this discussion 1. discuss some general reader characteristics and methods for analyzing the readers of various technical and workplace documents; and 2. describe additional considerations you need to make when dealing with a global audience or an audience from a culture different than your own.

...Simple Proposal Format DISCLAIMER: This is a simple proposal format that can be used when no format is given by the funding agency. Please note: this format is not all-inclusive, as some sponsors may require other components. Organizational Background: This is the “Who” of your proposal. • Why you or your organization are qualified. • Should include brief history, accomplishments, qualifications, experience in types of projects for which you seek funds, etc. • See Sample – Organizational Overview – CNM Community College. Need: This is the “Why” of your proposal. • Based on RESEARCH – trends, data, census, newspaper articles, worldwide web, etc. • Community description, poverty, education and employment levels, other information that describes or relates to your target population and the objectives of your proposal. • Make sure the NEED relates to what you are going to DO. Avoid circular reasoning. • See “Resources for Gathering Data” list for gathering data based on research. • Keep track of sources. List source in parentheses behind information. Example: In the Pew Study for the States report entitled “Quality Counts 2007: From Cradle to Career: Connecting American Education From Birth to Adulthood,” New Mexico ranked last of the 50 states on a child’s “Chance-For-Success” index evaluating how well young people in each state are faring at key points in their development and education (Source: Editorial Projects’ Research Center, Education Week...

...Case Study 1 Victoria Chemicals (A) MBA9005 Ashley James Executive Summary The board needs to question a number of cash flow decisions made in the proposal by Morris. Namely; sunk costs, cannibalization, cash flows from unrelated projects and implication of future Capex programs for the transport division into the Merseyside project. There are also a number of conflicts of interest and other ethical dilemmas that arise in the case which need to be addressed in the assessment of the project. The board needs to take action, so the overall benefit of the company is the primary objective for management and especially for such significant investment decisions. On the basis of recognizing cash flows differently from original proposal, the board should reject this Capex program at the present time, as it does not meet VC’s criteria for capital expenditure projects. Report A critical assessment of the capital-investment project at Victoria Chemicals’ Merseyside Works in Liverpool identifies a number of areas that need to be addressed through the identification of relevant cash flows; in particular, the treatment of: a. sunk costs b. cash flows obtained by cannibalizing another activity within the firm c. exploitation of excess transportation capacity d. cash flows of unrelated projects You would accept the project as the financials were originally presented. The Capex project meets 3 of the 4 assessment criteria of VC. The costs of the engineering study and corporate overhead...

...General Outline for Business Consulting Reports Management 451 Your group’s report will follow a similar format. Sample consulting reports from previous semesters are available in the library on course reserve. I. Cover Page Covers are usually printed on heavy, flexible pieces of paper called “coverstock.” The main reason that “coverstock” is used is so that it can protect the document. The cover should carry the title of the report along with some extra information that will help people who may want to file it for later use. For example, you might want to list the members of the team, show off the company logo, and list the date of the final submission of the report. For more on creating a good title, make sure to carefully review section 3 (Title Page) You can create your cover by preparing your material with a word-processing program. If your computer’s printer won’t print on “coverstock,” you can print it on regular paper, and then photocopy it on heavier paper (Paula Lewis in the EMA office can help you out with this). II. Disclaimer Page A disclaimer is a statement that the company or organization hopes will limit its liability for the product or service it provides (as your instructors, we certainly do not want to be held responsible for any bad advice or research you provide your clients ☺ ). The disclaimer statement is fairly typical in consulting projects, and if nothing else reflects the seriousness of writing at a professional level...

...Chapter 4 Marketing and Implementation Plan I. Executive Summary As its name suggests, an executive summary summarizes, or reviews the main points of, a longer document or report for a reader that does not have time to read the entire report. An effective executive summary analyzes and summarizes the most important points in the paper or report, and will often make a recommendation based on the analysis. Executive summaries are “stand alone” documents that are almost always read independently of the reports they summarize. When writing executive summaries, always remember who will be reading it. You must take into account that the main purpose of your document, main topic and idea and why you need to showcase it. Remember we’re doing it from a marketing point of view. So here are some pointers to consider when writing your summary: * Who will read your executive summary? Sometimes your executive summary may have an “intended” audience: your professor might require you to write it for a CEO, department head, or supervisor, for example. On other assignments, your audience won’t have a specific identity, but always keep in mind that the reader of an executive summary needs to know all of the important information in the main document without reading the actual document. Even if you know that your instructor will be reading everything that you submit, write the executive summary as a “stand alone” document. * What is the main document’s main topic, theme, or idea...

...Chapter One Introdution: Fundamentals of Business Writing I. The major differences between school writing and business writing School writing, typically in the form of essays, is aimed at impressing the audience, i.e. examiners. To score high, student writers have to use fairly complicated vocabulary and sentences in their written work. Business writers, however, mainly aim to communicate information to their colleagues, clients, and other associated parties. They are relatively free to use what language that can get the business done efficiently and effectively. II. Seven steps in the process of wring 1. clarifying your aim 2. identifying your readers 3. making a general plan 4. sketching a synopsis (大纲) 5. drafting your text 6. putting the draft aside 7. revising and editing ★ Writing is a recursive and creative process. The detailed plan is not adhered to in actual writing. Writers frequently come up with ideas that are activated in the process of writing. Writers read the text they have already produced to help generate more ideas. In effect, the writing process is no linear at all but is characterized by recursive ness and creativeness. III. Three principles of business writing 1. Clarity – means setting your message across clearly. (See detailed information on page 4) 2. Consideration – good business writers take their readers’ needs, problems, and reactions to the writing into consideration. And they...

In order to be successful, the document should provide a logical presentation of a research idea; illustrate the significance of the idea.

...Sample Proposals Typical Approach Proposals can vary a great deal, and we’ve provided examples that cover the range from formal contracts to informal letters of agreement. However, all were based upon previously-established conceptual agreement, and all provide a single fee for the project (or for each choice of yeses). The normal framework for the value pricing proposal should encompass this basic sequence: Situation Appraisal: Summarize and reconfirm the conceptual agreement concerning the condition to be improved and the desired state. Objectives: The outcomes expected, both tangible and intangible, quantifiable and non-quantifiable. These should be expressed in terms of impact on the client’s business, and sometimes are expressed again in the “values” category, if used. Value: Either clearly stated or implied through buyer conversations, what is the value of achieving the objectives. This sometimes appears in the “objectives” category. Metrics: How will the client evaluate success? What are the indicators that the objectives have been met? Simply stated: How would clients know it if they fell over it? Timing: Projects are finite. When do we begin, when do we end, and are there progress measures in between? Accountabilities: What is the client expected to provide (documents, access, administrative support) and what do we provide (focus group facilitation, product, reports)? What is the nature of the collaboration? Credentials (optional): Why is Zenger...

...memo, manuscript, printed form, digital format) Report type (information, progress, justification/recommendation, feasibility, minutes, summary) Delivery method (in person, by mail, by fax, by email, online) Topic #1: Persuading the loan officer at a local bank to lend you money for your proposed business venture. A business plan is quite detail oriented and should be both informative and analytical (Crockett-Hoggard, 2014). Banks are number driven and risk factors are also considered when lending money. A personal loan and business loan have different underwriting guidelines. In personal lending, an individual with an 850 credit score typically gets better interest rates than someone considered higher risk at 650. A similar scenario holds true for business loans. For instance, a company with assets and receipts, at a brick-and-mortar location, is more likely to get funding than a home-based internet company. The first page of the report is a basic introduction, cover letter. The business plan Section 1.0 standard practice is to include an Executive Summary. The executive summary of a report is formal and impersonal. An Executive Summary is an overview of the most important aspects written in the business plan. It should introduce, describe the business, services and product, “but the purpose of writing an executive summary is also to deliver a hard sell. Convince your reader here that you have a great idea they should invest their time and/or money in.” (Berry...
