OOC:

This thread is open until I say. With all the schmoozing up the marketing and business-types do to get your business. If you would like a look at the inner workings of TGM come and see!!

IC:

It came down to the simple fact, they need more business, from governmental offices but also from private organisations or inidivuals. Whoever it was they didn't care with burgeoning staff that the extra-nation garbage corporation seeming had every day.

But what could they do? And then it hit them... an idea unsurpased by any other. They were going to play hosts at a time and date to be determined but the word would be spread. News-leaflets ads in the appropriate newspapers and TV channels, whatever media was available they took advantage of it, and hopefully tapped into the invisible network that connected every person to everyone else... the Word of mouth. Perhaps one of the most useful marketing tools that no one could really control.

However soon enough the day came, the attendee's whoever they were had been given instructions towards The Garbage Men's corporate HQ. A crisp clean building with sharp lines that just sparkled in the atmosphere. The day seemed perfect a nice 23 degrees celcius the sun shining and birds chirping.

The way to the main lobby was easy to see, it stood out like a star shining in the darkness of night, the floor was a nice pollished marble. One that provided such good reflection and was imppecible in it's appearance. A minor defect or scuff would have been easy to detect.

In the large airy and yet modern lobby was the reception desk, A nice polite beautiful looking young lady was sitting at the desk, who was all smiles and would happily direct any who came for "A look at what The Garbage Men might have to offer."

A staircase to the left of the reception desk would lead any that scaled them to a room lavishly decorated, a wide range of food from the bizarre to common for a wide range of nationalities. There assuredly would be something there that anyone who came would like, drinks ranging from various alcholic drinks of varrying strengths to water, juice and chocolate milk (also available in Coffe flavours)

All that they needed to do now was to wait... and see who'd come.

A black Audi A4 stopped several hundred meters down the street, pulling up against the sidewalk. The front passenger door opened and a young man stepped out, shrugging a black strap bag over his shoulder and talking into a mobile phone. He was around the age of 24, though it was difficult to tell - his clean cut look could have fooled the casual eye.

One thing that obvious was the mans purpose of movement, unhidden by his grey trenchcoat and black loafers. He moved along the shadow of the building to the main entrance, and glided across the polished floor.

He smiled slightly at the receptionist and spoke quickly.

"I need to talk to a businessman of intelligence about a business deal. I represent the Nuclear Association of Agroprom."

The receptionists smile was beeming, she (it was only a her because that is what most clients expected) simply smiled. "Someone will be with you shortly." She replied before returning back to her other work.

Not quite a minute later a tall caucasian male, short black hair in a traditional black business suit energetically burst out of a pair of wooden double doors with what looked like golden bars for handles.

"Hi, I'm Graham, Come with and we'll talk about your needs... So what can The Garbage Men offer your organisation today?" he asked as he opened the double doors for his potential client.
