Let' s talk Script Martin: Dick, would you review the result of the survey on leisure sporting activities We need to plan our proposal for this Fridays business meeting Dick: Sure. I've summarized the results in the handouts, broken down by customer age groups and sporting activ ities. The survey was administered to 550 men and women between the age of 18 and 55 years old, and the results have been compiled in the following age groups: 18to 26, 27to 35, 36to 45, and 46to 55 Accord ing to the results, the most active group involved in sporting activities is between 18 and 26 years old, followed by those 36to 45 years old Martin: Okay Dick: As far as particular sports are concerned, people in these two groups cited jogging as their favorite recreational sport followed by skiing, tennis, wimming, and cycling Martin: And what about these groups broken down by gender? active than women in the i8 to 26 year-old age group, but women seem more active in the other three groups Martin: Hmm Based on what you have said, I think we should consider targeting the 18 to 26 year-old age group more in the future. I also feel we should consider expand ing our line of athletic shoes, particularly jogging shoes and tennis footwear. We also have to come up with a more appealing slogan aimed at this age group Dick: I see what you mean. However, the 46 to 55 age group is becoming more concerned about staying fit. I believe this trend will continue, so we should not neglect them Martin: I see your point.
