PROBLEM: Person1: The new webpage design is much more effective than before . I feel confident it will rope in a lot more business because of its user-friendly format .
Person2: Why do you think the new page is so much better than the old page ? I thought the old page wasn't half bad ...
Person1: The old page was okay , alright , but there wasn't a big influence in our sales volume , because the site wasn't developed with an eye towards the marketing aspect . Now it's different . We got our marketing department team in on the action , and the results are smashing ...
Person2: What changes were made from the old page to the new page ?
Person1: First , the visitors to the site are encouraged to give their contact information . They can sign up for a free monthly drawing . Once we've got their info , it goes into a database for future marketing mailers and advertising targeting . Also , there are clear links to descriptions of our products and services , so as to give confidence to new customers . We also added a specific area for on-line customer service ... So far we've gotten a ton of positive feedback ...
Person2: Great !
