Competitor’s marketing strategies The way in which competitors conduct their marketing can provide pacesetters with insight on how to improve or differ from them. For example if they are using pay-per-click advertising methods on their e-commerce site then you can assume they are doing well enough to sustain this method of advertising, but they may be missing an active affiliate program which is where you reward a visitor or consumer who refer a sale to your website.

...The research conducted for and in these articles is to display the emphasis on the integration of business ethics and the study of its importance in foreign countries. The ethics of Western Europe, Continental Europe, and Japan differ greatly from those of the United States. They do not seem to place as much emphasis on the mindset and the appearance of the mere implementation of these business ethics. Based on these writings, these countries appear to be much stricter in their implementation and day-to-day practicing of these ethics which are to help govern law. Ethics work hand-in-hand with these laws that are meant to help the innocent not fall victim to various forms of deceit practiced by businesses every day before social responsibility became a tried and true responsibility. A great example is in a piece written by Gregory Jackson and Androniki Apostolakou on the governing of social responsibility in Western Europe. They more than anyone here in the United States that is known or aware of has more closely related the ideals of Social Responsibility in how it relates to ethics. The two must coexist together, not one or other. To be ethical is to practice everything that would be considered a company’s Social Responsibilities to its investors, employees, and communities in which they do business in. Jackson and Apostolakou also acknowledge that the idea or even one consistent definition of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) still to this day does not...

It is also known as Field Research. It is usually more reliable than secondary data, because it is usually more accurate since you collected it yourself.

...War War could be simply defined as an organized armed War is an organized, armed, and, often, a prolonged conflict that is carried on between states, nations, or other parties typified by extremeaggression, social disruption, and usually high mortality.[1][2] War should be understood as an actual, intentional and widespread armed conflict between political communities, and therefore is defined as a form of political violence.[1][3] The set of techniques used by a group to carry out war is known as warfare. An absence of war (and other violence) is usually called peace. In 2003, Nobel Laureate Richard E. Smalley identified war as the sixth (of ten) biggest problem facing the society of mankind for the next fifty years.[4]In the 1832 treatise On War, Prussian military general and theoretician Carl von Clausewitz defined war as follows: "War is thus an act of force to compel our enemy to do our will."[5] While some scholars see warfare as an inescapable and integral aspect of human culture, others argue that it is only inevitable under certain socio-cultural or ecological circumstances. Some scholars argue that the practice of war is not linked to any single type of political organization or society. Rather, as discussed by John Keegan in his History of Warfare, war is a universal phenomenon whose form and scope is defined by the society that wages it.[6] Another argument suggests that since there are human societies in which warfare does not exist, humans may not be naturally...

...A. Educational History When starting off college I knew exactly what my major would be, Special Education. My mom was a teacher and my boyfriend’s mom at the time was a teacher as well. I just knew moving in that direction I would have a support system. So I started my journey at Wittenberg University in Springfield, Ohio. Wittenberg had captured my heart and I was ready to learn. After completing my first year at Wittenberg I decided to move back home to be closer to my family but also was having complications with depression. That time was really hard for me because I felt as if I was giving up on my dreams. But I took a vow to myself that I would not slack when it came to going to school in Saint Louis, Missouri. I enrolled into general education courses at a community college. While being at home I had time to think about where I would like to go that was closer to home that would give me the same five star education that Wittenberg University offered their students. So I sat out on a hunt to find the most amazing school. When looking up schools I started in Missouri because I knew that I wanted to at least be close to home. Missouri State was one of the first schools that popped up when scrolling through Missouri Schools. That week I came to campus to visit a few friends who had come here right after high school. After that week with my friends I as sold that Missouri State was the place for me. As I started classes at MSU I was still pursuing a major in Special Education...

This is to protect the creditors and allow the bank to continue operating. If a bank does fail then this could cause a domino effect throughout the economy, i.e. bigger companies often purchase supplies through a smaller company who rely on the bank for a large portion of its income, the bank’s failure could then cause them to shutdown, meaning unemployment.

...Comparative Essay Dover Beach by Matthew Arnold does stay true to its name, as the poem gives most of its attention to the beach that Arnold is currently residing by, however Dover Bitch by Anthony Hecht shines a new light on the woman that Arnold was with. The poems, when read together, give insight to the relationship between the men and the woman, but also shows just how well or how little the men seem to know about the woman. Dover Beach is set in what seems to be a type of Inn on the cliffs of Dover, looking right out over the sea, an isolated place that Arnold has brought the woman to be alone with her. Arnold spends the first stanza explaining the night in great detail, slowly taking a turn for a more somber tone...

...Today was a rough day. Let’s start at the beginning. Beep! Beep! Beep! The alarm clock woke my ass up at 5:15. I repeat 5:15! From what I'm used to, waking up before the sun rises is ungodly! Not even the beasts of the earth are awake before the sun is. I groggily strut into the bathroom to shit, shower, and shave, and then race out the door to my job. Pissed off, as I am every morning, I manage my way through the day, working as little as possible, and socializing as much as I can. My boss is like eagle eye though. Being the dick that he is everytime he sees me talking he comes and yells at me. “Maaaaaatt!! Get back to your workstation!” The nerve of some people! People need to learn how to chill out and take a chill pill. As soon as my work was finished I clocked out and snuck out the back door. No way in hell I was letting that fat ass, tell me to help out another work area. If I wanted overtime I would have come in early. Because the lunch served today was basically inedible I was freaking starving! Free lunch or not, make me something worth eating. My dogs wouldn't even eat that pulled pork shit. I make my way over to subway to grab a foot long. Just as I pulled into the parking lot, I hear those dreaded sirens, and see the lights in my mirror I scream out in frustration, and think to myself “what else can go wrong today?” I get ticketed for no seatbelt and my tail light being out. Communist police are wasting their time on me when they should be out stopping...

...Dog Food Fried, Flipped and Devoured Eating dog food may not be seen as the easiest thing to stomach because the smell, texture and by-products found within the mixture are thought of as awful and revolting. In Ann Hodgman’s “No Wonder They Call Me a Bitch”, although the title may suggest otherwise, different types of dog food are discussed. In this essay, Hodgman aims to inform her readers about the inequality in different types of dog food, as well as to entertain and amuse. Hodgman is writing to a broad audience, one of dog lovers and owners, as well as those that may be curious as to what is really in dog food, or more generally the packaging and processing of mass-produced food of any kind. Language, description and humor are techniques Hodgman skillfully uses to create a strong, convincing essay. Within this essay, Hodgman continually uses diction and syntax that a diverse audience can understand and relate to. In the beginning, the reader feels repulsed by what is written. However, through a light tone of voice and sentence structure, the levity of the experiences and feelings occurring throughout the experiment is conveyed. The personal anecdotes and thoughts make the tone feel less formal and much more story-like. In this way, Hodgman produces a piece that connects the information and readers Shortly after capturing interest through stating questions, Hodgman begins using large amounts of description. Each type of dog food is explained and illustrated so well that...
