Conversation Between Marketing and...
Marketing: We'd like to have a forklift on our stand this year at the Retail Expo
Management: A what?
Marketing: A forklift. Not a big one.
Management: And (I'm almost afraid to ask) what will you do with this forklift?
Marketing: Pick goods up from the warehouse and drive it to the store.
Management: You do know you're supposed to be showing PRONTO-Xi at the show?
Marketing: No worries, the forklift is part of our retail supply chain demonstration.
Management: Please explain.
Marketing: Well, you can come to the stand and see PRONTO-Xi in action. See the goods coming into the warehouse, pick them from the shelf (using the mini forklift) and despatch them to the store, where you can "purchase" the goods using PRONTO-Xi Point of Sale.
Management: Is there a coffee machine this year?
Marketing: ummm.. yes.
Management: Good, see you there!
