Email Etiquette
I think most everyone could benefit from a lesson on email etiquette. I certainly needed some of the tips that were pointed out on the site, www.emailreplies.com. I liked the tips on this site although they were quite brief on many of them and feel that most people would gain a lot more from a detailed explanation of the tips. For example, I liked the detail incorporated in the “Core Rules” on the site, www.albion.com/netiquette/corerules.html. Any corporation dealing with customers or business relations via email on a regular basis should certainly enforce an email policy. Having proper email etiquette can give individuals and corporations that extra edge to get ahead of the “crowd”. We live in a generation where people have become so lazy in respecting grammatical rules because of the ease of incorporating acronyms in their text messages and emails it would be beneficial to teach these “netiquette” skills at an early age in middle schools and high schools.

Final Proposal Letter
Lee’s Marketplace
555 East 1400 North
Logan, UT 84341
Dear Jared McDonald:
The Utah State University Sexual Assault and Anti-Violent Information (SAAVI) organization, proposes an opportunity to create a relationship with Lee’s Marketplace in assisting SAAVI to meet the needs and goals of troubled victims. We would like to hold a new event in the Logan Lee’s Marketplace in order to raise awareness and funds.
Your sponsorship will help students in need and bring recognition to Lee’s Marketplace as well as to the SAAVI program. The purpose of the USU SAAVI Office is to help create violence-free environments and healthy relationships at USU, and with your help we can better meet these goals.
We come to you for support because many students at USU shop at Lee’s and have a trust in your services. We would like to get USU students involved along with other community members. Your partnership will build and maintain relationships with the community and the SAAVI program.
While USU students are currently involved in the SAAVI program, we want to engage the rest of the community. One in four women are affected by sexual assault. By sponsoring this event not only will it help SAAVI achieve its goal, it will assist Lee’s Marketplace in maintaining community involvement. We feel your slogan, "You've Got a Friend at Lee's" meets the standard for our mission.
SAAVI has a history of uniting communities through a shared goal of preventing sexual violence and promoting healthy relationships. Through the assistance of the project director, Rachel Brighton, SAAVI and Lee’s Marketplace can successfully raise the funds needed to fully obtain its goals.
We would like to hold the new “Shop a Mile” event at Lee’s Marketplace. During the last week of January 50 percent of purchases made by any customer shopping in high heels will be donated to the SAAVI program.
We appreciate the support Lee’s Marketplace has given to the community and we look forward to an ongoing partnership.
Sincerely,
Amy Jensen
SAAVI Public Relations Representative

Draft Position Paper
Currently Burger Planet is losing the demographic of women between the ages 30 to 40. Women in this category are becoming more health conscious. We propose that BP develop new options for our menu. In order to be thorough Jayne Petersen, fitness specialist, will become a part of the Burger Planet team.
• According to statistics women in their 30’ and 40’s are --- times more likely to adapt a health regimen. This includes cutting out high-calorie foods. Women in this demographic want healthier choices because of decreasing metabolism. According to WebMD.com, women’s metabolism tends to decelerate by about 5 percent per decade after the age of 40.
• Jayne Petersen’s role will not only be to help develop menu options, but also to attract women of that demographic. Petersen is an adviser to Opal Whitcomb and is nationally recognized as a fitness specialist. Petersen has appeared on Whitcomb’s show, Opal Speaks, several times and has published a bestseller on health.
• It is important to keep the traditional Burger Planet menu while adding options that appeal to the health conscious demographic. By creating a more diverse menu women will have a convenient stop that provides healthier choices as well as Burger Planet’s infamous burger and fries.
We believe that by implementing the key point of this campaign Burger Planet will regain the demographic that has begun to diminish. With the return of these customer’s Burger Planet will see an increase in revenue.
