Task 5. Imagine that your group is responsible for promoting traditional crafts in your area. Propose an action plan to deal with the challenges.

Our team would like to propose an action plan to promote the conical hat, a famous traditional craft of our country.

The first part of the plan, we want to give young people, especially students like us, knowledge about this product. Young people should know about the history of conical hats, the symbol and production process of conical hats so that they understand why we need to promote and keep it alive even in today's modern life.

After that, we should organize some fairs or festivals for conical hats and also other traditional crafts to increase sales of these products.

Last but not least, we can manufacture conical hats for different purposes than just for wearing. Today, conical hats are no longer a common accessory of the vast majority of people in our country. For example, we can create more unique and artistic conical hats for home decoration or music performance. It can also be a way to increase sales of this product.

We hope our plan can help develop the conical hat industry in the future. Thank you for listening!
