At present, Ms Michaels is analysing a number of software packages that focus on accounts receivable. She needs to pick one package that she can recommend to her clients. Each software vendor is keen to have their software selected as it will result in a significant increase in sales for their company.
Angus Johns is a salesperson for software company Rogue Ltd. He has told Ms Michaels that she should go to New York to analyse his company's software package properly, because the programming experts there could give her a thorough demonstration. Mr Johns has also suggested that she take her family, so that she feels relaxed in a foreign country and is in the right frame of mind to undertake her analysis. He also suggests that Niagara Falls is worth visiting while Ms Michaels is over there. Rogue Ltd would pick up the expenses for the trip.
