BEP 146 – Thành ngữ về tiền (Phần 2)

Đây là phần thứ hai của hai phần Business English Pod series on idioms related to money.

Many of our day-to-day business transactions involve money, so it’s common to hear money idioms used frequently in business discussions. We use them to talk about handling money and to describe situations with lots of money or no money at all. But we also use them to talk about situations that have nothing to do with moneysuch as evaluating ideas or speculating on their impact.

Trong tập cuối, we met Kevin and Leah, two employees at a cosmetics company. They’re planning a promotional campaign on a small budget. So they’re brainstorming ideas that will spark customer interest at a reasonable cost.

Hiện nay, they’re thinking of ways to show that their company’s cosmetics line is good value for money-conscious consumers.

Câu hỏi nghe

1. What idea does Kevin suggest at the beginning of the dialog?
2. What are two things the company will have to do if it accepts Kevin’s idea?
3. What are Leah’s concerns about the idea?

BEP 145 – Thành ngữ về tiền (Phần 1)

This is the first of a two-part Business English Pod series on idioms related to money.

It’s difficult to imagine business without money. Sau tất cả, making money is the main goal of many businesses. Profits often determine a company’s success. And companies must spend money, and budget carefully, to reach their business goals. Vì thế, it’s not surprising money idioms are featured regularly in business conversations.

We’ll be covering many of these idioms today. Take note of them as you hear the dialog, but don’t worry if you don’t understand them the first time around. They’ll all be explained in the debrief and you’ll have a chance to practice them at the end.

We’ll be listening to Kevin and Leah, two colleagues at a mid-sized cosmetics company. Cosmetics is the industry name for make-upproducts used to enhance a person’s appearance, such as mascara or eye shadow. They are discussing promotional plans for the coming year while working on a tight budget, so there isn’t much money to spend. Kevin and Leah don’t agree on the best way to spend the money and must find a compromise.

Câu hỏi nghe

1. What promotional plan does Kevin suggest?
2. Does Leah agree with this idea? Tại sao hoặc tại sao không?
3. What does Kevin think the company needs to show?
