Assume the role of the vice president of sales at Rampart Publishing. Early in February, you attended a professional conference in another state. Dr. Daniel Loman, the motivational speaker who delivered the keynote address, was especially impressive. You think he would be perfect as the keynote speaker at your company’s annual sales meeting. After the session, you spoke briefly with Dr. Loman about the possibility; he gave you his business card and asked you to send him the details. Neither of you made a commitment—you don’t know whether he’s available during the meeting (November 1–4), how much he charges, or what expenses your company would be expected to pay. Once you have the information, you can decide whether to enter into a service contract with him. Prepare an appropriate message.
