Stop Wasting Money on Advertising (Social Media Week 2013)
This document discusses how marketing has shifted from traditional advertising to more digital and social media-focused approaches. It provides quotes highlighting how much of traditional advertising spending is wasted without knowing the target audience. Examples show how the mix of marketing has changed from mostly paid advertising to incorporating owned and earned media through websites, social media, customer referrals, and word-of-mouth. The presentation recommends focusing on creating high-quality products and content, telling compelling brand stories, and using paid, owned and earned digital channels to build the brand.

- Lifestyle information focuses on intangible characteristics that make people unique, going beyond basic demographic facts to understand what meaning those facts have. This includes psychographics, social factors, belief systems, and life stage.
- Lifestyle merchandising and advertising uses storytelling and creating desired environments to emotionally connect with consumers and influence their attitudes, which can be more effective than rational arguments. Retailers are adapting these narrative approaches to their merchandising.
- This presentation is based on the assumption that intention to perform a behavior can be predicted by a consumer's attitude toward that behavior.
Assignment on effectiveness vs efficiency
This document discusses the difference between efficiency and effectiveness. Efficiency refers to avoiding waste of resources like time, money and energy when producing a result. It is doing things well without waste. Effectiveness means doing the right things to achieve desired goals. An example of a clothing factory shows efficiency as producing the most clothes with the least resources. For an organization to be successful, both efficiency and effectiveness are important. The manager needs to efficiently do things right and effectively do the right things to reach organizational goals.
Group Presentationon Olpers
Engro Foods produces Olper's milk and operates dairy farms and processing plants. It faces competition from Milk Pak and Goodmilk. Olper's segments the market based on customers wanting milk that is white, carefully processed, and good for health. It targets all consumers, especially housewives and children. Olper's differentiates itself through unique packaging, creative promotions, and positioning the milk as an all-purpose product. However, some find the taste does not suit tea and the price and quality need improvement to attract lower classes. With success so far, Olper's milk is predicted to overtake competitors rapidly in a few years.

The document uses the example of cellular manufacturing in a nut production industry to demonstrate how efficiency leads to effective results. Elements like material handling, inventory, quality, people, and customer benefits are discussed in terms of how efficient processes result in more effective outcomes. The conclusion states that efficiency is a productivity metric while effectiveness is a quality metric.

The document discusses the concepts of efficiency and effectiveness in work. Efficiency refers to doing things right, while effectiveness means doing the right things. Three key factors that contribute to work efficiency and effectiveness are working at a good pace, being organized, and creating the right work space. The document also compares efficiency and effectiveness, noting that efficiency focuses on process and current output while effectiveness considers long-term strategy and desired output. Motivation of employees is discussed as an important tool for improving efficiency and effectiveness.

How To Assemble a High Converting eBook
The eBooks you create have the potential to become an important pillar in your content marketing mix.
Do it right and these high-converting "lead magnets" can continue to work for your content marketing machine long after the average blog post has ran out of steam.
But first, we need to move past the assumption that great eBooks are merely written and start building them with all the right parts!
Create icons in PowerPoint
Using icons is a great way to add visuals to your presentation. There are many ways to get icons online, some are even free. But if you need a specific icon that you can’t find or if you want a special spin to your icon (color, shadow etc) – you can use PowerPoint’s great (and somewhat hidden) “Merge Shapes” commands to create your own icons.
Using these commands you can combine basic shapes into other shapes. You can union and subtract shapes. You can intersect and combine. All while still working natively inside PowerPoint. Once you have created an icon you can change the color, filling and add shadows as needed.
It is just as fun as building with Lego blocks! Well, almost..
This is a guide in 15 steps showing you how you can use these commands to create your own icon - the example we are using is a calendar icon.

10 Disruptive Quotes for Entrepreneurs
People think that innovation happens by sitting around with your buddies and letting magical ideas pop into your head. Or, your customers tell you exactly what they need, and you just have to build it.
Dream on. Innovation is a hard, messy process with no shortcuts. It starts with making something that you’d like to use and that might make people’s lives better. Then you have to get the word out that your product or service exists.
Follow #VirginDisruptors to join the conversation with Richard Branson and Guy Kawasaki as they talk about whether entrepreneurs have lost the will to innovate.
The Live Google+ Hangout with Richard Branson will be live streamed on Friday, May 9 at 9:30 am PT/12:30 pm PT with a live audience as well. It’s sure to generate a thoughtful conversation and innovative thinking. RSVP on the Google+ event to get a reminder. http://bit.ly/1mgP0b6

Examples mentioned include crowdfunding sites like Kickstarter, local marketplaces like Etsy, and communities formed around sharing items, skills and physical spaces. The document argues this shift represents more than a fad and will continue transforming economic and social systems.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.快速制作美国迈阿密大学牛津分校毕业证文凭证书英文原版一模一样

What's a worker’s market? Job quality and labour market tightness
What's a worker’s market? Job quality and labour market tightnessLabour Market Information Council | Conseil de l’information sur le marché du travail
In a tight labour market, job-seekers gain bargaining power and leverage it into greater job quality—at least, that’s the conventional wisdom.
Michael, LMIC Economist, presented findings that reveal a weakened relationship between labour market tightness and job quality indicators following the pandemic. Labour market tightness coincided with growth in real wages for only a portion of workers: those in low-wage jobs requiring little education. Several factors—including labour market composition, worker and employer behaviour, and labour market practices—have contributed to the absence of worker benefits. These will be investigated further in future work.Economic Risk Factor Update: June 2024 [SlideShare]
