字、句、段策略

句子是動詞的心臟，每一個動詞都是一個點，每一句用對動詞的句子是一條線，而每一條動詞線編織的故事就是動詞面。

商務寫作最重精準表達，試著先把你的想法用一個動詞表達，有了動詞，就能很快速抓到主詞與受詞，寫出關鍵句，同樣的方式多做幾次，你的文章就從只有一個字進展成關鍵的段落，這就是「字」、「句」、「段」的思考方式。 

例如:

 Word 字 

increase 

 Sentence 句 

Our local Taiwanese microchip suppliers recently increased their prices.

 Paragraph 段 

As you know, the economy in Taiwan is not doing very well at the moment. In response to the poor economic conditions, all of our local Taiwanese microchip suppliers recently increased their prices by 15% to 25% without notifying us in advance and without giving us any reasonable justifications.

例如:

 Word 字 

expand

 Sentence 句 

We need to figure out whether our company should start doing business in Guangdong in order to expand our network of suppliers.

 Paragraph 段 

We need to figure out whether our company should start doing business in Guangdong in order to expand our network of suppliers. I think it is very clear that we can no longer stay with our local suppliers in Taiwan. For our business to be successful, we cannot continue to rely on them. Instead, we need to find foreign suppliers in Guangdong, China.

有了以上3種構思的策略，我們正式來寫一篇商務企畫書吧!

Short Business Proposal

July 14, 2017

Subject: Business Proposal

Dear George,

As you know, the economy in Taiwan is not doing very well at the moment. In response to the poor economic conditions, all of our local Taiwanese microchip suppliers recently increased their prices by 15% to 25% without notifying us in advance and without giving us any reasonable justification.

As we mentioned during our meeting on Monday, we need to figure out whether our company should start doing business in Guangdong in order to expand our network of suppliers. I think it is very clear that we can no longer stay with our local suppliers in Taiwan. For our business to be successful, we cannot continue to rely on them. Instead, we need to find foreign suppliers in Guangdong, China.

I have started looking into potential suppliers online and I have made a list of suppliers that can meet our high standards for quality. I think the best way for us to find out if these suppliers can actually make and deliver products to our satisfaction is for Peter, John, Paul, and I to visit their factories in Shenzhen and test samples there during the last two weeks of July (July 17th to July 31st).

I am confident that the four of us can find and create long-term, win-win relationships with a few reliable suppliers and negotiate a price that is cheaper than what our current local Taiwanese suppliers gave us before their price increase.

As always, thank you very much for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Best regards,

Jack
