Woman: Yes，that's right. I was running their big sales campaign for Eastern Europe, and the promotion still had another six months to run. Now they'd be left without an agency, I felt very bad about that.
女：是的，没错。我负责他们的东欧大促销活动，还要持续六个月。现在他们没有代理了，对此我觉得很糟糕。
Man: And it was because of this that you started up your own business?
男：就是因为这个，你才开了自己的公司？
Woman： Yes. I talked to them and offered to run the account from home. I already had a small PC and a fax machine and plenty of room to work in, but nothing suitable for running such a large campaign.
女：是的。我和他们谈过，并提出要在家里管理这个账户。我已经有了一台小型个人电脑和一台传真机，还有足够的工作空间，但负责如此大规模的活动还没有适合的办公条件。
Man: And did they invite you to work at their offices?
男：他们有没有邀请你去他们的办公室工作？
Woman: I really wanted to work from home, so they gave me an up-to-date computer and a photocopier. And that was the beginning of Jumpstart, my own agency. I soon had too much to do so I took on an assistant. She's still with me.
女：我很想在家工作，所以他们给了我一台最新的电脑和一台影印机。我自己的机构Jumpstart就是从这开始的。我很快就忙不过来，所以我雇了一个助手。她现在还在我这里工作。
Man： What happened next?
男：接下来呢？
Woman： A friend of mine，Thomas Beck，gave me some really useful advice. He's a successful investment manager I've known him for years.
女：我的一个朋友托马斯·贝克，给了我一些非常有用的建议。他是一位成功的投资经理，我认识他很多年了。
Man： What did he suggest?
男：他给出了什么建议？
Woman: Well，I had a lot of plans for Jumpstart, offering a whole range of marketing services. Thomas liked my ideas，but he thought I should focus on just one area.
女：哦，关于Jumpstart我有很多计划，打算提供各方面的营销服务。托马斯喜欢我的想法，但是他认为我应该专注于一个领域。
