…improve your bottom line?
Maybe another business downstairs, or a new section in your own business? But it can’t decrease productivity, or the bottom line falters. Any thoughts?

I found that…

Employee input makes workers into ‘team players’.

Brainstorming at meetings gives the employees an ‘open forum’ to voice their suggestions.

Performance Bonuses gave them the incentive to ‘go the extra mile’. It could be cash..or…the top producer gets one Friday off each month with pay.

If you’re considering expanding…make it a business that will ‘compliment’ the one you already have.

If you were to have a hair salon upstairs…then a nail salon and botique downstairs would compliment the business and not compete…generating more income.

If we knew what kind of business you’re running, it would be easier to zone in on some other ideas.

These suggestions were what worked in my ’sales oriented’ businesses…Hope that helps, Helen <:O)

That is a scam – neither of those are legitimate Hewlett Packard email addresses. if it doesn’t end in @hp.com you are not dealing with the real company

This is nothing but a scam to eventually steal all of your money and commit identity theft with your information. They will ask you to send a copy of your passport to some "agency" to process the visa, then ask for money. Then ask for more money for another certificate. Then more money then more until you finally wake up and realise it’s been a scam all the time

Delete this or report it to whichever agency in your country deals with internet crime

A major global company like HP is NEVER going to offer a job over the internet. If you were not flown to the UK for an interview at their head office in Bristol (they aren’t in London) then the job doesn’t exist. A company cannot get a visa for a person they’ve never met in person. That’s one of the requirements the company has to prove – that they have either flown to meet you or flown you in to meet them for at least 2 interviews before they can offer you the job and sponsor a visa

These are the options:

•Accounting: Provides excellent preparation for the Chartered Accountant (CA), Certified Management Accountant (CMA) and Certified General Accountant (CGA) designations
•Business Research: teaches you survey design, data collection and interpretation, quantitative measurement, market and decision analysis and information systems design. An ideal preparation for a career as a market researcher or analyst, business or strategic planner or research director.
•Finance: focuses on professional wealth management, including personal financial planning and investment management. It will provide the knowledge and skills to pursue a rewarding career in finance and wealth management and to work toward the two major designations within the finance field: Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) and Certified Financial Planner (CFP). Career possibilities include corporate financial manager, financial planner, investment adviser and investment portfolio manager.
•Human Resources Management: develops your knowledge of workplace productivity, safety and equity legislation, labour-management relations, hiring, compensation and retention issues. This is excellent preparation for a career as a labour-relations specialist, corporate recruiter, HR systems analyst or training professional.
•Management: gives you a solid foundation in marketing, human resources management, finance and strategic planning to prepare you for a career as a business director, entrepreneur or business development consultant.
•Management Science: provides a strong foundation in quantitative methods as well as in operations and logistics management. This specialization prepares students both academically and professionally to address the unique and complex issues organizations face in their short- term and longer-term strategic planning.
•Marketing: helps you gain practical knowledge in all aspects of the field including product management, advertising and communications, market research and strategies and consumer behaviour. You’ll take courses in a variety of areas including business, psychology and general arts to give you a well-rounded marketing education.

Out of these options which program of study in university should I choose and why? Highly appreciated for any help please and thank you.

If this is for an undergrad degree in the US I would narrow the list to Accounting, Finance or HR Management. Then from there, you would have to choose what’s best for you.

Business Research – how much work is there really in this field?
Management – should really be a graduate degree – chances are you will not land a management job right out of undergrad.
Marketing – should be a part of your business program, but no the whole major. Most marketing majors I know end up in sales or something completely unrelated – there’s just not enough "marketing" positions for the number of people who want them.

Accounting – there is always work for accountants, most make good money.
Finance – a lot of money and a lot of positions.
HR management – every company needs HR – always work and decent pay.
