Specific Goal

1. I want to inform the precise lists and the original prices of those outdated items in the warehouse. Besides, I would suggest my boss to sell them in an inexpensive price to earn some at least. Moreover, these discounts may attract customers and they may consume other products in the store, too. In the end, we should avoid stocking too much goods happening again.

3. I want to ask my customer to pay off in a week or we will meet each other in the court. Since in these three months, this is not my first time to ask the person to pay, he or she should understand the result of violation. If the person has any problems, he or she could communicate with me before. Now it is the last straw.

5. I want to inform the supplier that I did not receive shipment and check what the problem is. Besides, we can discuss what we can do to avoid the problem next time.

"You" view is the same with audience-oriented. When we are writing, we should stand in audience's shoes. Sometimes we will think we have achieved a great job, but sometimes it is not what we really think while everyone thinks differently. The following are three examples of "you" view.

The first one is "Do not use sexist language in business writing." It is hard to change the original usage such as chairman, fireman and so on, but when the person is a female, sometimes it is not so polite. Be careful about these details.

The second one is "Keep your sentences short and simple." If I am a reader, I would not like to read long and complex sentences. Beside, it would be comfortable to read simple vocabulary and sentence structure.

The third one is that "Make your writing reader-friendly. The explanation of the tip is quite interesting: Business people are busy; use a lot of white spaces and so on. All in all, "you" point focuses on readers, not writer at all. So, making the writing more thoughtful can make a more comfortable article.
