D) call the client and demand to know why you haven't received a response yet.
E) call the client's office, give a fictional reason for calling, and then casually ask about the report as if you had forgotten about it, as well.


Answer: A
Explanation: A) If you don't hear from your readers within a week or two, you might want to ask politely whether the report arrived. (Some RFPs specify a period of time for responding. In such a case, don't pester the recipient ahead of schedule, or you'll hurt your chances.)
