Marketing - Advertising / Public Relations / Advertising
French term or phrase: asile
Several occurrences in a text relating to the marketing of a product. Example "Asile d’un Questionnaire de qualification".
According to www.granddictionnaire.com it is a "Documentation publicitaire qui accompagne des envois non publicitaires tels que livraison de commande, facture, état de compte."
So it's clearly a sort of disguised advertisement - but what on earth is the actual English equivalent for this?
Suggestions gratefully received!
