Words That Sell for PR and Marketing CommunicationsSteve Turner
Words have power. The right words can generate faster responses from journalists, improve job performance and leadership skills, and even move a nation. Here are some examples to take your writing skills to the next level.
The company was founded by Levi Strauss in 1853 primarily
selling wholesale dry goods. The company was founded in San Francisco, California.
The innovation of the rivets in the jeans differentiated
Levi’s jeans from others because of its increased durability.
Over the years, Levi Over Levi’s jeans have become more
popular, initially due to its durability. Jean products expanded,
targeting different consumers.
Levi Strauss & Co. eventually captures most of the denim jean
market, becomes the largest manufacturer of jeans, and profits
reach $1 billion by 1974.
A tailor named Jacob Davis thought of an idea to use copper
rivets to reinforce the points of strain on pants.
Davis and Strauss purchased the patent of the idea of using
copper rivets in clothing on May 20, 1873.

MN6003 Levis Strauss Case:
Adapted from: “Does Levi Strauss still fit
America?” by Caroline Fairchild October 6, 2014,
Fortune Magazine and “Levi Strauss - The Boss
and the yogi” Jul 12th 2014 from the Economist
It used to be the only name in denim. Today the
161-year-old family owned company is just one
name among hundreds. Can anyone bring the
blue jeans pioneer back to its old glory? Enter
Chip Bergh—a former P&G brand whiz who once
made razorblades cool. Chip Bergh is not an
“apparel guy,” he says, while walking through
Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, the new
home of the San Francisco 49ers. Levi’s 20-year,
$220 million investment in the naming rights for
the 49ers stadium is part of a larger push to tap
into the nostalgia Bergh believes everyone has
for the brand. Despite the setting, Bergh isn’t
really a “sports guy” either. He is much more of a
company man. “I still bleed Procter & Gamble
blue,” he says about his former employer.
A crowd full of fans wearing your clothing is the
fantasy of anyone heading an apparel company.
But at Levi—the largest jeans company in the
world and the undisputed founder of the
category—the fantasy has been far from reality
for a long time. The creator of the 501 has
struggled to keep its brand relevant for what
Bergh calls Levi’s “Lost Generation.” For 120
years the term “Levi’s” was synonymous with
“blue jeans.” Then came the turn of the 21st
century, when a fashion explosion in denim
suddenly gave shoppers a range of high-end
choices—including brands like 7 For All Mankind
(founded in 2000) and True Religion (2002),
whose labels sounded more like cults than pants.
At the same time, lower-end rivals that had been
kicking around for a while (Lee and Wrangler)
began nibbling away at market share and
consumers defected to cheaper jeans, sold by
“fast-fashion” retailers like Zara and H&M. Levi
got lost in the middle. With $7.1 billion in 1996
sales, the company used to be bigger than Nike.
By 2003, Levi’s revenues had bell-bottomed out
to $4.2 billion. Over the next decade, sales rose
only barely as the company failed to translate
affection for the brand into actual purchases.
Levi’s design team was late to key trends, like
colored denim for women and more tailored jeans
for men. Once in the top quintile of
the Fortune 500, Levi dropped off the list in 2012.
That kind of decline would be a challenge for any
new CEO, yet Bergh, a 57-year-old vegan and
former U.S. Army captain, is bringing a discipline
to the company that had been missing for nearly
20 years. He has taken an axe to the company’s
inflated cost structure and is convinced that he
can make Levi grow again. While still relying
heavily on the classic pieces of clothing that are
the seam of the denim giant’s business (think the
button-fly jean, the white pocket tee, the trucker
jacket), Bergh is now investing i ...

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
Business Valuation Principles for EntrepreneursBen Wann
This insightful presentation is designed to equip entrepreneurs with the essential knowledge and tools needed to accurately value their businesses. Understanding business valuation is crucial for making informed decisions, whether you're seeking investment, planning to sell, or simply want to gauge your company's worth.
Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.
4. 1872
Jacob Davis, a Reno Nevada tailor, writes to Levi Strauss,
telling him about the process he invented to rivet the
pocket corners on men’s pants to make them stronger.
He suggests the two men take out a patent on the
process together and Levi agrees.
5. 1873
• .
Levi Strauss & Jacob Davis are granted a patent on the process
of riveting pants by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office on May 20.
It is patent number 139,121 and this is the invention of the blue
jean. The pants - called “waist overalls” - have one back pocket with
the Arcuate stitching design, a watch pocket, a cinch, suspender
buttons and a rivet in the crotch. We don’t know the origin of the
Arcuate
6. 1873
There may have been a tradition of pocket stitching on men’s
workwear but this has not been found in any research done so far.
The cinch and suspender buttons were standard on men’s pants.
Keep in mind that we did not invent the cut or fit of the waist
overalls; what we did was take traditional men’s work pants and
rivet them, creating the new category of workwear which we today
call blue jeans
7. 1890
The rivet patent goes into the public domain, so that Levi Strauss & Co.
is not longer the exclusive manufacturer of riveted clothing.
Lot numbers are first assigned to the products being manufactured. 501
is used to designate the famous copper-riveted waist overalls. We don’t
know why this number was chosen. We also made a 201 jean, which
was a less expensive version of the pants, as well as other products
using other three-digit numbers
8. 1971
The word “Levi’son the red Tab device is now stitched in
white with a capital “L” only; the “E” looks like it changed,
leading to the vintage clothing concept of “Big E” and “little e.”
This was done to conform to the company’s new housemark –
the “batwing” – which was adopted in 1967 and in which the
word “Levi’s” is meant to be the proper name of our founder,
Levi Strauss.
9. 1985
LS&CO. wins the Governor’s Committee Media/Advertising
Award from the New York State Office of Advocates for the
Disabled, for its positive portrayals of disabled people in the
“501 Blues” television
ads.
10. 2003
LS&CO. celebrates the 130th anniversary of the invention of
the blue jean. From the June 28, 1873 issue of Pacific Rural
Press “A New Pocket Fastening - Mr. J.W. Davis, formerly of
Reno, Nevada, but now residing in this city [San Francisco] has
just received through the Scientific Press Patent Agency, letters
patent for an improvement in fastening the seams of pockets.
The improvement consists in the employment of a metal rivet
or eyelet for fastening the seams.
11. 2007
Levi Strauss was again said to be profitable after declining sales in
nine of the previous ten years.Its total annual sales, of just over
$4 billion, were $3 billion less than during its peak performance
in the mid 1990s.
12. 2009
Levi’s was noted in the media for selling Jeans on interest-free
credit, due to the global recession.
13. 2010

manufacturer in Seattle, to produce a high-end line of jackets
and workwear
