英文メールの書き方：同僚にちょっとした頼みごとをする
こんなシチュエーション、お仕事でありませんか？
営業担当の同僚に、顧客訪問のついでに言伝をお願いしたい。たいした用事ではないので、軽い感じで頼みごとをしたい。

トゥアンさん、
今日の午後にPLRコンサルティング社を訪問されると聞きました。
お客様に夏のイベントにお立ち寄り可能かお伺いできますか？商品開発部の者が全員参加しますので、お客様の英語研修について深く話し合えるかと思います。チラシを添付します。
お打ち合わせで話し合うことが多いかと思いますので、タイミングが合わないようでしたら、だいじょうぶです。よろしくお願いします。

Hello everyone! Welcome to E-mail Picks.
Summer has come - I wish they never did
0:00:10.200,0:00:16.379
but my company, Bizmates, is participating
in an HR Expo this week. We have a booth
0:00:16.379,0:00:21.210
set up there and we're expecting many
visitors, so many of our staff will be
0:00:21.210,0:00:25.680
there to meet our potential customers.
Today, one of our sales reps, Tuan is
0:00:25.680,0:00:30.390
visiting a new client and I thought it
might be a good idea to ask them if they
0:00:30.390,0:00:35.520
will be interested in visiting us at the
HR Expo. It's held only 500 meters away
0:00:35.520,0:00:40.170
from the client's office, so I thought it
wouldn't hurt to ask maybe they can stop
0:00:40.170,0:00:45.390
by. All three of our product development
team members will be there, so if the
0:00:45.390,0:00:49.710
client is interested in having an
in-depth talk about how to make an
0:00:49.710,0:00:54.420
English training program successful,
we're there to help, or they can just
0:00:54.420,0:00:59.309
stop by to have some fun. Anyway, I want
to send Tuan an e-mail to ask him to do
0:00:59.309,0:01:03.809
us a little favor: ask the client if
they'll be interested in coming to the
0:01:03.809,0:01:10.860
expo. So if the client says no, that's OK.
If Tuan forgets to ask, that's OK too.
0:01:10.860,0:01:15.479
So in this e-mail, I want to make a
request very lightly ,so no pressure on
0:01:15.479,0:01:21.659
Tuan. Here it goes: Hello Tuan, I heard you
were visiting PLR Consulting this
0:01:21.659,0:01:25.409
afternoon. Do you think you could ask the
customer whether they'd be interested in
0:01:25.409,0:01:29.070
stopping by the summer event? The whole
product development team will be there
0:01:29.070,0:01:32.880
and if your customer is interested, it
may be a good chance to discuss their
0:01:32.880,0:01:37.020
company's English training program in
depth. I've attached a brochure in this
0:01:37.020,0:01:41.340
e-mail. I'd imagine you have a lot to
discuss in the meeting, so if you figure
0:01:41.340,0:01:47.040
it's not the best time to bring the
topic up, no worries. Thanks! Kyota. OK so I
0:01:47.040,0:01:51.869
jumped right into the main topic. I wrote
that I heard Tuan was visiting a new
0:01:51.869,0:01:56.610
client, and then I asked him to do me a
little favor by writing: "do you think you
0:01:56.610,0:01:59.700
could ask the customer whether they'd be
interested in stopping by the summer
0:01:59.700,0:02:04.260
event?" I then wrote the reason the
customer may benefit from coming to the
0:02:04.260,0:02:10.090
at the end. I made sure Tuan will not
feel pressured to do this by writing:
0:02:10.090,0:02:13.870
"I'd imagine you have a lot to discuss in the
meeting, so if you figure it's not the
0:02:13.870,0:02:16.420
best time to bring the topic up. no
worries."
0:02:16.420,0:02:20.680
This shouldn't be a big priority for him.
So there you go, an e-mail to ask a
0:02:20.680,0:02:24.700
colleague to do you a little favor.
I hope Tuan reads this e-mail in time,
0:02:24.700,0:02:29.980
but if he doesn't, that's okay. So anyway,
thank you for watching and I'll see you
0:02:29.980,0:02:32.370
next week.
