A “recommendation” (recommendation) is a suggestion, an opinion, or advice about what someone should do.
A doctor's recommendation might be for you to stop smoking, or a teacher's recommendation might be for you to study more.
Shawn's recommendations are “about how Vision Corporation can increase its market share by reaching more of its potential market,” or the people who don't buy the product now, but might be interested in it.
So, Shawn is going to make suggestions about how Vision Corporation can raise (or increase - make larger) its market share by reaching (or getting to) more of its potential market.
“Market share” is the percentage of sales that a company has in a specific market or a specific area or group of people.
For example, Chinese companies have a large market share of the clothing sold in the United States - a lot of the clothing sold in the United States is made in China.
So, Chinese companies have a large market share (a large percentage) of the clothes sold here.
Companies want to increase their market share by getting more customers to buy their products, and that's what Shawn's presentation is about.
Shawn says that each person should have a copy of the “handouts” (handouts).
A “handout,” is a piece of paper that is given to people in the audience (people who are listening to the presentation) during a presentation, so that they have more information.
It's a piece of paper that has, usually, information related to the presentation that you give people who are listening.
Having handouts means that you don't have to spend as much time writing down notes as you're listening, because the information is already there on a piece of paper.
Shawn says that the handouts “correspond to the slides…on the screen.”
