In this Business English Podcast lesson, we're going to look at the language of presenting your products and services to potential clients in informal situations.
在本节课中，我们来看看在非正式场合中向潜在的顾客介绍自己的产品和服务的语言。
Following on from our episode on hosting a site visit, we return to our friends at the railway tunnel. Stanley Wang is a site agent for a railway construction project in western China. He has just taken Matt and Paul, sales engineers from a small American company, on a tour of the tunnel. Now, in the evening, Stanley and his boss Bill Zhang are hosting a dinner for Matt and Paula. The group is discussing possibilities for future cooperation.

In particular, we'll see how you can sell your products in relation to your customers' needs with a few soft-sell techniques.
