...Functions of retailing From the customer point of view, the retailer serves him by providing the goods that he needs in the required assortment, at the required place and time. 1. Arranging Assortment:manufacturers usually make one or a variety of products and would like to sell their entire inventory to few buyers to reduce costs. Final consumers, in contrast prefer a large variety of goods and services to choose from and usually buy them in small units. 2. Breaking Bulk: to reduce transportation costs, manufacturer and wholesalers typically ship large cartons of the products, which are then tailored by the retailers into smaller quantities to meet individual consumption needs 3. Holding stock: Retailers maintain an inventory that allows for instant availability of the product to the consumers. It helps to keep prices stable and enables the manufacture to regulate production. 4. Promotional support: small manufacturers can use retailers to provide assistance with transport, storage, advertising, and pre- payment of merchandise. The Retailer also serves the manufacturers by 1. Accomplishing the function of distributing the goods to the end users 2.

Recommending products where brand loyalty is not strong or for unbranded products. The Role of the Retailer by Pride Scott Wright while the companies profiled...

...Portfolio: Business and financial information Article 1 Source: News.com.au 20 May 2012 The name of the article is “Pressure on to secure staff”. It relates to Australia’s private owners struggling to retain and attract quality staff – but are also pulling back from strategies that would allow them to do so. PwC’s winter 2012 Private Business Barometer finds employment is a major challenge for private firms. The report shows about 39 per cent of businesses intend to pay bonuses, down from 50 per cent in March 2011, while fewer businesses intend to offer working hours or competitive salaries (both down from 41 per cent to 24 per cent), working-from-home conditions (19 per cent to 13 per cent) and lifestyle-based leave (16 per cent to 6 per cent). PwC partner Michael Browne says firms have cut bonuses and other recruitment strategies in response to more uncertain economic times. By not adequately investing now businesses could face problems retaining staff in the future. This can affect their profitability, and also expectations, objectives and needs. “Businesses are looking to cut costs, so you have this trade-off with staffing strategies” Michael Browne says. Businesses can improve their retention of valued staff by planning to: * Ensure staff remain engaged in their roles * Promote a healthy work/life balance approach * Have regular career conversations with staff These strategies would be relevant to the development of plans to provide...

...LIBERTY UNIVERSITY BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY Unreached People Group Project Submitted to Dr. David H. Campbell, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the completion of the course GLST 500-B10 LUO Global Studies Survey by José C. Caballero March 6, 2015 Abstract God has a plan to reconcile His relationship with man after sin entered the world. This plan revolves around making His name known throughout all tribes and nations. From the Old Testament to the New Testament, the Bible presents God’s missionary purpose for humanity. For this reason, Christians involved in missions will travel to dangerous places to proclaim God’s name and saving power. According to the People Groups website, since the year 2014, there are a total of 11,168 people groups in the world and 6,544 are unreached people groups. All unreached people groups are in dire need of the Gospel and it is God’s intention to have His people reach them. One unreached people group who are in desperate need for God is the Koreans in North Korea. With a population of 25,360,100 and a communist government that regulates all aspects of freedom, including religion, for its people, explains why North Koreans are approximately one percent evangelized. North Korea is ranked as the number one country where Christians are most persecuted for their belief. God remains faithful to His intent on reaching all peoples and Koreans are not the exception. In order to bring...
