"I have been analyzing the foot traffic data for the past few weeks and it seems that there might be a possibility that we are opening too early. Perhaps we could consider shifting the opening time to 9 AM from 8 AM. Let me know your thoughts when you have a moment." Kaplan-Approved Writing (A grade): SUBJECT: Recommendation: Shift store hours to 9 AM – 7 PM (starting June 1)
Please approve a 2-store pilot for May 15-30. I will present results at the June 2 ops review.
The single greatest mistake new MBA students make is "vomit drafting"—writing as they think, resulting in dense paragraphs, passive voice, and buried conclusions. In business, your audience (professors, recruiters, C-suite executives) operates under extreme time scarcity. If your core message isn't clear within the first 15 seconds, your document fails.
Data from 12 stores shows 8 AM – 9 AM generates only 2% of daily revenue but 15% of operating costs. I recommend delaying opening to 9 AM.
