The Prospectus Your Sponsors Want to See!
Launching the Program with more Sizzle!
Big Game Hunting!
The Reasons Why Your Program Is Not Growing!
We’re often asked by promotional product distributors “Should I join a buying group?” – and truth be told, we’ve not really been well informed enough to comment.
So we asked five of the leading buying groups to tell us what makes them a good choice for distributors; what makes them different, and what sort of distributor is a good fit for their services.
We also asked five members of these buying groups to give us their honest feedback on value for money, support, and whether they felt they could have made it as far without their network.
These are the slides that accompanied the presentation, which took place on April 8, 2015.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Part 1
4. • The competitive problem
• Role of a purchasing cooperative
• Benefits of belonging
• Successful traits
• Typical member commitments
5. Large Corporate Chains often:
• Sell products below an Independent’s cost
• Receive new products months earlier
• Replenish stocks despite supply shortages
• Open new stores while Independents are
exiting the sector
6. Independent businesses do all the
right things…
…But they still can’t compete with
the large corporations over the
long-term.
7. National and international competitors
have a more efficient supply chain.
Their larger gross profit margins
fuel rapid growth and
greater market share power.
8. In some sectors, the “Independents” are thriving!
Examples:
• Hardware Stores
• Carpet Stores
• Natural Food Retailers
• Gypsum Supply Dealers
The Independents have formed
a Purchasing Co-op to help them compete.
13. Purchasing co-ops can also improve:
• Marketing, to drive more sales to the
members
• Management services, to bring greater
capabilities to each Independent (HR,
Finance, IT Systems, etc.)
14. • Everyone’s expertise is leveraged
• Provides a forum of business peers
• Builds strategic supplier relationships
15. A successful Purchasing Co-op
creates a winning situation for the
suppliers AND the member-owners of
the purchasing cooperative.
16. • Negotiate a “Group Deal”
• Lower billing costs and credit risk.
• Rebates protect street price of products
while rewarding co-op members for
support.
• Performance-based rebates ensure
payment only if sales target is exceeded.
18. Two Suppliers: Supplier A Supplier B
Sales $6,000,000 $4,000,000
Gross Margin % 20% 21%
GM Dollars $1,200,000 $ 840,000
What would happen if all the sales went to
Supplier A or Supplier B?
19. Two Suppliers: Supplier A Supplier B
Sales $10,000,000 $10,000,000
Gross Margin % 20% 20%
GM Dollars $2,000,000 $2,000,000
Less Original GM $ $1,200,000 $ 840,000
Rebate Potential $ 800,000 $1,160,000
(8.00%) (11.6%)
20. • Ensures the Purchasing Co-op is for the
member-owners, by the member-owners
• Returns are dependent on participation
and not on how many shares are owned.
• Equal representation: One vote per one
member-owner
21. • Leverage purchasing power of many member-owners
across the country
• Receive their pricing advantage as rebates
• Receive active support from their member-owners
• Foster the open exchange of ideas
22. • Fulfill purchases with preferred suppliers
• Enhance current supply chain
• Have financially secure members
• Treat preferred suppliers as partners
• Share benefits with all
• Have strong professional management
23. • Initiation Fee
• Participation Fee
• Purchases from preferred suppliers
• Participates on committees
• Ensures their business remains healthy
• Meets payment & reporting requirements
• Maintains confidentiality

25. • Defining and Differentiating
