My name is Megan Braun and I am a current senior at the University of South Carolina in Columbia, South Carolina, USA. As part of an importing and exporting academic course, myself and my partner are required to chose an actual product and simulate "selling" it to potential buyers/distributors in different countries. We would not in fact be selling the product, but we were wondering if you would consider the following as if we were a real potential seller and what your reaction would be to it. You can send it to my email and again, this is for academic purposes only. I want to thank you in advance for your cooperation and please let me know at your earliest convenience.

Tomato Beauty Products Co., Ltd.
To Whom It May Concern :
Through extensive research, we have learned that Tomato Beauty Products Co. Ltd. is one of the lead distributors in non-prescriptive pharmaceutical creams in Japan.
We are currently seeking potential distributors in a market which we have found has an abundant need for a product like ours. As our distributor, we will provide you with the highest quality merchandise, outstanding promotional programs and continuous support services.
Zim’s Crack Crème was first developed after World War II for use by local cement workers in Ohio, USA. Over the years its popularity grew, and since 1985, it has seen a huge increase in demand and over $10 million in sales. It is now sold in every major retailer in North America, and our warehouse and office space expands to over 37,000 square feet. We have 17 employees and recorded sales at $1.9 million for the fourth quarter sales in 2008.
For the past four years, Zim’s Crack Crème has been voted the number one pharmacist recommended product for healing cracked feet, elbows and other body parts. Due to numerous natural ingredients, there is no ban for importing our cream into Japan
If you are interested in representing our products, please reply by e-mail with information about
your company, your annual sales volume, accounts that you are currently representing, a current financial statement and a brief summary of how you would market our products. We will be appointing an exclusive distributor for Japan and we would appreciate receiving your reply at the earliest possible date.
Sincerely Yours,
