...s the Chief Executive of Tesco Bank, creating the right culture in the bank has been my priority since we assumed full control of the business four years ago. Ultimately it is the culture of a business that transcends all other influences on how its customers are treated. I encountered an essay recently which contained the following passage: "Somebody had blundered and the most expensive orgy in history was over. It ended two years ago, because the utter confidence which was its essential prop received an enormous jolt and it didn't take long for the flimsy structure to settle earthward". The essence of these words could have been written at any point in the last few years. But they were written from the vantage point of 1931 by the great American writer F Scott Fitzgerald in a seminal magazine article entitled 'Echoes of the Jazz Age'. The importance of having the right culture in business, and in financial services in particular, has once again been illustrated by the failures of the recent past. It is worth reflecting on how history repeats itself in the absence of intervention; how strongly Fitzgerald's words resonate more than eighty years after they were written. The expression "flimsy structure" can be interpreted usefully in the context of business culture. What do we mean by culture? It can be all too readily discussed in superficial terms.

...A REPORT ON MOBILE MARKETING Submitted by Aatish Khemka INTRODUCTION Mobile marketing is marketing on or with a mobile device, such as a cell phone. One definition comes from marketing professor Andreas Kaplan who defines mobile marketing as "any marketing activity conducted through a ubiquitous network to which consumers are constantly connected using a personal mobile device". Within this definition, Kaplan uses two variables, i.e. the degree of consumer knowledge and the trigger of communication, to differentiate between four types of mobile marketing applications: Strangers, Victims, Groupies, and Patrons. Mobile marketing can also be defined as “the use of the mobile medium as a means of marketing communication”, the “distribution of any kind of promotional or advertising messages to customer through wireless networks”. More specific definition is the following: “using interactive wireless media to provide customers with time and location sensitive, personalized information that promotes goods, services and ideas, thereby generating value for all stakeholders". Mobile marketing is commonly known as wireless marketing, although viewing advertising on a computer connected to a home local area network is not considered to be mobile marketing. Mobile Marketing involves communicating with the consumer via cellular (or mobile) device, either to send a simple marketing message, to introduce them to...
