Susan: hello?
Donna: good afternoon. Are you Susan, of Susan's Scrumptious Cookies?
Susan: yes, I am.
Donna: my name is Donna Jenkins, and I'm calling from the National Cookie Company. We're nuts about your cookies, and we'd like to sell them all over the country.
Susan: unfortunately, we're running on a shoestring out of our kitchen. We can't make enough cookies for you.
Donna: my company wants to buy the recipe and the brand name from you.
Susan: Oh yeah? Why should you want to do that?
Donna: we have a successful track record of buying small companies and turning them into big ones.
Susan: in that case, I'm sure we can come to an agreement.
Donna: great. You just made my day!
Susan: you'll need to work out the nuts and bolts of the agreement with my husband. He's the business manager.
Donna: may I speak with him now?
Susan: he's at a meeting. I'll have him get in touch with you when he returns.
Donna: good. I look forward to speaking with him.
