1-- The market is really becoming more and more competitive.
2-- Exactly. So we must know how things stand with us and do something to keep our lead.
1-- We'd better look at the strengths, weakness, opportunities and threats we have. First, it's obvious that our main competitve advantage is our range of products.
2-- I think our strength also lies in another thing, that is our people.
1-- You mean...
2-- I mean the after-sale service.
1-- Right you are. Our after-service team is faster, more qualified and more efficient.
2-- How do you analyse our weaknesses?
1-- I think our problem is that we have a strong product but we haven't achieved the sort of market penetration we should have.
2-- That's because our marketing is not so effective as our competitors'. We've relied too heavily on product quality, not enough on promotion.
1-- I agree. So from now on, we have to put considerably more effort into our advertising and direct mail campaigns.
2-- We should take effective measures to dominate the market. We must be aware of the threat we face.
1-- So we've still got a tough job to do.

譯文:
1-- 市場(chǎng)競(jìng)爭(zhēng)變得越來(lái)越激勵(lì)了。
2-- 的確如此。因此我們必須認(rèn)清我們的處境,想方設(shè)法保持我們的主導(dǎo)地位。
1-- 我們最好認(rèn)清我們的優(yōu)勢(shì)、劣勢(shì)、機(jī)會(huì)和威脅。首先,很明顯,我們的主要競(jìng)爭(zhēng)優(yōu)勢(shì)是我們的產(chǎn)品系列。
2-- 我覺(jué)得我們另一方面的優(yōu)勢(shì)就是我們的員工。
1-- 你的意思是……
2-- 我是說(shuō)售后服務(wù)。
1-- 太對(duì)了。我們的售后服務(wù)隊(duì)伍發(fā)展得更快,更稱職,效率也更高。
2-- 那你怎么分析我們的劣勢(shì)呢?
1-- 我認(rèn)為我們的問(wèn)題是,我們有好的產(chǎn)品,但這并沒(méi)有給我們帶來(lái)我們應(yīng)有的市場(chǎng)份額。
2-- 那是因?yàn)槲覀兊拇黉N手段不如我們的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手。我們過(guò)于依賴產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量,卻缺乏促銷手段。
1-- 我同意。所以從現(xiàn)在起,我們必須在廣告上和郵購(gòu)直銷中下更大功夫。
2-- 我們應(yīng)該努力占有市場(chǎng),我們必須認(rèn)識(shí)到我們面臨的威脅。
1-- 因此,我們的工作仍很艱巨。
