Another memo to Santa was left on the Helpdesk printer this year. It seems Toy Town Industries is vying for Santa's business ahead of Black Friday again. We don't know why Santa's memos keep getting redirected to Oak Knoll, but we would be remiss if we did not share the scoop on this year's hottest educational toys as our very own 2019 Tech Gift Guide for Kids in time for Black Friday!
To: Bernard, CEO (Chief Elf Officer)
North Pole Labs
I trust you received our company’s recent press release regarding our increased emphasis on producing toys that are both educational and fun. I know Santa has many options for toy developers this time of year, but I encourage you to consider the mission of Toy Town Industries (and our long-standing relationship) before you solidify your purchase schedule this season. Parents want to know that the toys their children receive from the North Pole have an educational component and our new initiative and educational line answer that need.
We have guaranteed express delivery to your Workshop in time for Christmas Eve and pride ourselves on hitting deadlines. Please see the following highlighted recommendations from our educational department to make ordering quicker (I mean, to help you choose the right toys for children ahead of this year’s Black Friday deals):
