Can you come to me to do an appraisal?

Certainly. Bernard has logged almost one thousand airplane flights and he’s always ready to add to his list. At the same time, he is so much in demand that he must have full information about a potential assignment so he can prepare a proposal which will address what you have, what you need, what he can provide, how you can use it, what it will cost and what timetable you can expect.

It is never a good idea to request professional services when you have delayed doing so and are on a restricted timetable. Bernard Ewell’s travel schedule is arranged a long time in advance.
