Hi this is Kelly Brown. I’m the manager of the HR department. Recently our IT department
developed a new software program which allows the employees to shorten the time and effort
they spend on making advertisement video clips. They said they designed a program with many
kinds of innovative design tools and time-saving shortcuts for work. The head of the IT
department asked me to gather our employees to hold a training sessions for it because they
think it will definitely improve our company’s work efficiency. So, I put a notice on our
company’s website. However, it seems that not many employees are interested in it. When I
checked the number of participants there were only 7 people who registered. As you are my
supervisor I’d like to get your advice to gather more participants. My extension is 24. Please
leave me a message. Thanks! Bye!
