“Hey, this is Steve, I wanted to talk to you about the ad agent’s quote for the web banner but since you’re out, I will leave you a quick message.
From my standpoint, the fee is a bit too large considering our internet budget for the next quarter.
So, instead of going for the bigger banner like they are suggesting, how about the standard size which is 120 x 60 pixels? That, I believe, is less than one third of the original cost.
Or we may be able to take the same amount of space if we cut down on production. Forget the pricey ad movie, and stick with the static button. It won’t be as eye-catching but size will more or less compensate, in my view.
What do you think? the deadline is a few weeks away and we need to move rather quickly. Get back to me asap, will you? thanks."
