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

3. 10 Steps to Take to Reach a Solid
Social Media Marketiketing Strategy
1. ALIGN GOALS
What’s the point of going on social media in the first place? Are you hoping to generate leads? Increase sales?
Recruit employees? Create brand advocates? Choose a goal and focus.
HINT: Don’t get caught up in the number of followers and fans you have. It’s about the quality of fans (brand
ambassadors, influencers).
2. DECIDE HOW TO MEASURE SUCCESS
Companies and organization have varying ways of interpreting success on social media. Are you measuring
reach (number of followers, visitors), engagement (clicks, shares, likes, comments), or conversion (number of
people taking an action based on your content)?
3. CREATE PROCESSES
What is your plan for maintaining your social media accounts?
•
Allocate budget and resources
•
Decide who will manage the account
•
Decide who (one person or multiple) will answer to questions, concerns and feedback
•
Decide who (one person or multiple) will generate new content, written and visual
•
Decide frequency of posts
4. ORGANIZE A CONTENT CALENDAR
Start by thinking about general topics of interest in your field that your followers would appreciate. Then decide on themes, such as safety tips, industry updates, event features, etcetera and try your best to stick with
them. Plot out your schedule and frequency of posts (daily/weekly/monthly). You know the saying, “Once you
know the rules, you can break them.” When something exciting happens or breaking news arises, take advantage on creating buzz on your social media networks even if you haven’t planned for it!
HINT: Content calendars are a constantly evolving tool, so it’s more of a general guide
5. SET UP SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS
Once you know why you should be on social, decide on the platforms that will help you reach your goals. Are
you going to create a profile on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, YouTube, Instagram, Google+, a combination or all of the above?
HINT: Make sure you set up a business profile for many of these platforms, not personal.
4. 6. GENERATE CONTENT UNIQUE TO YOUR FIELD/BRAND
Quality content is key! Share and post content that your audience is looking for that’s also unique to your category. Add clean, informative, entertaining information and feature images.
HINT: It’s okay to share content from other companies and organizations you wish to affiliate yourself with.
This can further your reach and encourage others to take interest in your brand/organization. Just don’t go
overboard. In your unique posts, be helpful and don’t oversell.
7. LISTEN
Oftentimes, customers and supporters will tell you where and how you should be active in social media. It’s
also wise to evaluate what your competitors are doing to ensure you’re not missing out on something.
HINT: Subscribe to Google Alerts, to know who is talking about you, and what is being talked about in your
industry.
8. NOW TALK
The great thing about social media is it’s a two-way communication channel. It’s about having conversations,
not talking at or selling to followers.
HINT: Think about your voice and tone. Do you want to be authoritative? Lighthearted? Sarcastic? Witty? Stay
true to your brand and reputation.
9. SPREAD THE WORD
How do you plan to tell your customers and supporters you’re on social media? Will you:
•
Activate employees, or create an internal campaign?
•
Advertising on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google?
•
Send an email or have social links in your email communications (signature, bottom bar)?
•
Place social media links and/or feeds on your website?
•
Add social media URLs to your print materials (business cards, package inserts, brochures)?
•
Encourage attendees of events to follow you?
10. EVALUATE & REVISE
Now that you’ve been on social media, how can you improve? Every so often (at least annually), evaluate your
successes and failures. Look at content fans and followers are most engaged with. The more you analyze and
optimize, the better you’ll do!
HINT: Once you start, don’t stop. Remain steadfast. If you must, start slow and then ramp up, but don’t quit.
5. Social Media Advice, From Us to You

tomers). Example of activating employee ambassador: Millis Transfer Blog: Meet Eddie

Don’t delete negative comments. When you publicly respond to fan concerns, it shows you operate
with integrity and care about your customers and supporters. However, you can delete vulgar and
inappropriate content. Last year, Target demonstrated what not to do as they started deleting
comments from frustrated individuals when their gift registry went down. Fans were so upset
about them ignoring/hiding/deleting comments; soon they had more negative responses online
than they could manage. Comments about Target on Facebook
