| craigslist for business listings: Business Associations Lynn M. LoPucki, Andrew Verstein, 2024-06-06 This is the first Business Associations casebook organized by function (decision-making, finance, investor litigation, investment transfer, etc.) instead of by entity type (partnerships, corporations, LLCs, etc.). Functional organization avoids repetition and makes full coverage of corporations, partnerships, LLCs, and limited partnerships possible in a four, or even three, credit course. The systems approach is the basis for several successful casebooks in other fields, most notably LoPucki/Warren/Lawless’s Secured Transactions: A Systems Approach. The approach focuses on the actions of the lawyers, business people, and government administrators who apply law rather than merely on abstract law. The book provides hundreds of realistic, fact-rich problems in legal practice settings. Students apply their new knowledge of law and how the systems work to advise hypothetical clients. The cases are recent, heavily edited, and rarely longer than four pages. New to the Second Edition: The second edition is updated throughout with the emphasis on clarity and brevity. Four new cases, three of them from 2023 Decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) as unintended partnerships Grouping of public company materials to facilitate their omission Corporate Transparency Act (2021) More tables comparing entity types More focus on balance sheets New materials on race and gender Divisive mergers Officer exculpation Benefits for instructors and students: Full coverage of agency, corporations, partnerships, LLCs, limited partnerships, and the role of legal entities in society Tables, figures, photos, and one cartoon Fundamental documents for Meta Platforms and a hypothetical LLC (BKG Catalina) and operating agreement, which are also integrated into the text and problems Glossary Cleanly edited, easy-to-read cases Recent cases that illustrate modern business practices and reflect current law Organization by function, which reduces the repetition required in organization by entity type Modular organization, allowing the chapters to be taught in any order Fact-rich, realistic problems in practice settings An introductory assignment that provides an overview of the course Clear and direct examples and explanations, free of jargon and idioms that cause difficulty for students from other cultures.

| craigslist for business listings: Dominate the Real Estate Market Rob W. Davidson, 2021-01-15 As you set out to become the go-to real estate agent, and dominate the market, you will need a solid plan to achieve this goal. The world of real estate agents is saturated with many different types of people; from the young go-getters to the middle-aged retirees looking for something fun to do in their spare time. In most neighborhoods or communities, there will be only a few go-to agents who are well-known, trusted household names. Becoming well-known involves full time work and takes time. In order to dominate a real estate market, the goal is to be visible everywhere, and be willing to do what others won’t. This could mean taking an extra hour per day to engage on social media or it could mean spending extra hours shooting and editing videos promoting yourself in the community. It could also mean organizing virtual events or partnering with other businesses. To dominate in your real estate marketing efforts, you need to know what you bring to the table. What skills do you have, what are your strengths, what do you excel at? Furthermore, what niche are you going to cater to? You need to hone in on a particular target market and become an expert at the things your niche is interested in. Find out what your potential customers are looking for in a home. Baby boomers and millennials have different priorities when it comes to home buying. Some are looking for more space while young millennials might not want to spend time to clean a bigger house and prefer something with less maintenance closer to the city center. After you identify your niche, you are going to want to get their attention in all the platforms they pay attention to and engage with. For example, podcasts are becoming more popular and people are spending less time reading newspapers and watching tv. Being the go-to real estate agent on podcasts that your audience listens to will begin to create awareness for you. Slowly, as you build an audience, you will build trust with clients. When people realize that you know a lot about the area and that you have a track record for getting your clients what they want, they will trust you to find their next dream home. These happy customers will tell their friends and your greatest marketing asset will begin working for you – word of mouth. When you become a part of social media conversations, when you begin giving back, when you begin delivering a positive experience, you will become part of your community. You will be instrumental in shaping and building your community by helping people and what they want. You will help both buyers and sellers and their next place and build their next home and community. It all begins with a positive attitude, steady work, and executing on your marketing plans. This guide covers everything you will need to build a real estate marketing plan and begin implementing it. You will learn how to create a marketing budget, how to create a multi-channel marketing campaign, how to effectively promote your listings, your personal brand, and more. Continue reading for in-depth tips and strategies for dominating your real estate market. |

A brilliantly erudite account of the major waves in the theory and practice of management - The Financial Times The doyen of British thinkers on the evolution of business...One of the great attractions of his [work] is that he stands above and apart from conventional political attitudes - Literary Review For generations, we have defined a corporation as a business run by a capitalist elite, that uses its accumulated wealth to own the means of production and exercise economic power. That is no longer the reality. In the twenty-first century, our most desired goods and services aren't stacked in warehouses or on container ships: they appear on your screen, fit in your pocket or occupy your head. But even as we consume more than ever before, big business faces a crisis of legitimacy. The pharmaceutical industry creates life-saving vaccines but has lost the trust of the public. The widening pay gap between executives and employees is destabilising our societies. Facebook and Google have more customers than any companies in history but are widely reviled. John Kay, one of the greatest economists of our time, describes how the pursuit of shareholder value has destroyed some of the leading companies of the twentieth century. Incisive and provocative, this book redefines successful commercial activity and leadership, the knowledge economy and what the future of the modern corporation might be. |

| craigslist for business listings: The Know-It-Alls Noam Cohen, 2017-11-07 Included in Backchannel’s (WIRED.com) “Top Tech Books of 2017” An “important” book on the “pervasive influence of Silicon Valley on our economy, culture and politics.” —New York Times How the titans of tech's embrace of economic disruption and a rampant libertarian ideology is fracturing America and making it a meaner place In The Know-It-Alls former New York Times technology columnist Noam Cohen chronicles the rise of Silicon Valley as a political and intellectual force in American life. Beginning nearly a century ago and showcasing the role of Stanford University as the incubator of this new class of super geeks, Cohen shows how smart guys like Jeff Bezos, Peter Thiel, Sergey Brin, Larry Page, and Mark Zuckerberg fell in love with a radically individualistic ideal and then mainstreamed it. With these very rich men leading the way, unions, libraries, public schools, common courtesy, and even government itself have been pushed aside to make way for supposedly efficient market-based encounters via the Internet. Donald Trump’s election victory was an inadvertent triumph of the disruption that Silicon Valley has been pushing: Facebook and Twitter, eager to entertain their users, turned a blind eye to the fake news and the hateful ideas proliferating there. The Rust Belt states that shifted to Trump are the ones being left behind by a meritocratic Silicon Valley ideology that promotes an economy where, in the words of LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman, each of us is our own start-up. A society that belittles civility, empathy, and collaboration can easily be led astray. The Know-It-Alls explains how these self-proclaimed geniuses failed this most important test of democracy. |

| craigslist for business listings: Handbook on the Economics of Retailing and Distribution Emek Basker, 2016-01-29 This Handbook explores and critically examines current research in economics and marketing science on key issues in retailing and distribution. Providing a rich perspective for the discussion of public policy, contributions from several disciplines and continents range from the history of chains and the impact of multinational retailers on international trade patterns to US merger policy in the retail context, the rise of the Internet, and consumer-to-consumer sales. The chapters address methodological issues such as the structural estimation of entry games between retailers, productivity measurement when both inputs and output are not fully observable, and demand estimation with variable assortment. Policy issues explored include mergers, zoning, and the regulation of buyer power, while other chapters address some of the recent exciting developments in technology, retail formats, and data availability. The book goes on to study the changes in online retailing and ‘big data’, and to examine competition in specific retail sectors including gasoline stations, automobile dealerships, supermarkets, and ‘big box’ retail. This state-of-the-art Handbook is an essential reference for students and academics of economics and marketing science, and offers an outsider’s perspective to specialists in operations research, data analytics, geography, and sociology. |
| craigslist for business listings: Geography and Technology Stanley D. Brunn, Susan L. Cutter, J.W. Harrington Jr., 2004-05-31 It is particularly appropriate that the AAG's Centennial Celebration should prompt the publication of a volume devoted to Geography and Technology. New technologies have always been important in advancing geographic understanding, but never have they been so thoroughly and rapidly transformative of the discipline as at this stage in geography's evolution. Just as new technologies have profoundly expanded both research possibilities and the knowledge base of other disciplines, such as biology, physics or medicine, so too are the revolutionary new geographic technologies developed during the past few decades extending frontiers in geographic research, education and applications. They are also creating new and resurgent roles for geography in both society and in the university. This trend is still accelerating, as the integration of geographic technologies, such as the global positioning system and geographic information systems (GPS/GIS), is creating an explosion of new real-time, real-world applications and research capabilities. The resultant dynamic space/time interactive research and management environments created by interactive GPS/GIS, among other technologies, places geography squarely at the forefront of advanced multidisciplinary research and modeling programs, and has created core organization management tools (geographic management systems) which will dramatically change the way governments and businesses work in the decades ahead. While these and other important geographic technologies, including remote sensing, location-based services, and many others addressed in this book, are forging new opportunities for geography and geographers, they also pose challenges. |

| craigslist for business listings: Values-Centered Entrepreneurs and Their Companies David Y. Choi, Edmund Gray, 2010-09-03 A new brand of entrepreneurs has arrived on the business scene, carrying with them a whole new set of values. They possess a sense of mission – to be socially responsible, protect the planet, and do the right thing for all of their stakeholders. Rather than focus exclusively on financial gain, they aim to achieve a balance between profits and one or more causes of their choosing. In fact, they view for-profit entrepreneurship as a vehicle for social change. The authors call these pioneers values-centered entrepreneurs. Some of the values-centered entrepreneurs have been around a few decades. In recent years, however, the numbers have proliferated and the nascent movement has started to make a true impact. These entrepreneurs’ approach to management questions our basic assumptions about how businesses should be run and what their role should be in society. Several of these entrepreneurs have attained high visibility. Yvon Chouinard of sportswear manufacturer Patagoina has been a role model for integrating environmental protection to every aspect of Patagonia’s business operation. Howard Schultz of Starbucks has been able to build one of the strongest brands in the world while being the first retailer to offer comprehensive health benefits and stock options to its part-time employees. Paul Newman, legendary actor and racecar driver as well as a leading maker of salad dressings, gives 100% of Newman’s Own brand’s profits to charity. This book explores how these highly unorthodox leaders have built their profitable and socially responsible business enterprises, and what lessons can be learned for the next generation of entrepreneurs. The authors examine a group of over 40 entrepreneurial companies and how each balanced the profit objective with social responsibility in key aspects of their business operation – from their initial company formation, through growth, to exit – to build successful triple bottom-line companies. Choi and Gray particularly focus on how these firms’ commitment to values affected their company missions, hiring and organizational policies, marketing strategies, financial practices, exit options, and giving programs, and vice versa. In some cases, the authors find that the entrepreneurs’ social objectives have actually strengthened, not weakened, their business enterprises. Based on their extensive studies of these companies, he authors have distilled a set of commonalities. The book presents ten of the most dominant and interesting of these commonalities with a focus on those policies and decisions that appeared to depart from conventional business practice. In addition to devoting chapters to each of the core principles learned from these companies, the authors also include in-depth case studies of four of the ventures featured in their study. |
