A reply to a foLLow-up email I Unit 10

2) Could you arrange a gift for each guest at the event?
Yes, no problem. What about including a personal card from you or Ms Kennedy
with the gift?
3) Are you able to do this for less than €50 per guest?
Of course. Why don't you look at the attached list of possible gifts and tell me
what you think is best?
4) Could you send a new offer with the total price?
Yes. !.haven 't finished the new offer yet, but I will do it tomorrow. Would you like
me to send it to Ms Kennedy as well?
5] I can 't open the pictures of the conference rooms you sent.
Have you tried opening the pictures in Microsoft PowerPoint? Or should I send
you the photos in the post?
I hope these suggestions help. Let me know if you need anything else.
Best regards
Jon
