Website: Senjata Meningkatkan Penjualan di Masa Resesi

Surviving the recession, this should be on top of every executive's mind recently. Yes, it should be so. Saya mengingat dengan baik, dua bulan sebelum saya keluar dari industri seafood, yang notabene merupakan komoditas ekspor, ada banyak pabrikan yang menerapkan efisiensi finansial di banyak lini untuk tetap mencoba bertahan di masa awal resesi. Tak heran, karyawan-karyawan grass root yang saya temui di lapangan mulai bertanya-tanya, berpraduga apakah perusahaan tempat mereka bekerja akan terus beroperasi, atau mereka yang akan segera kehilangan sumber nafkah. Ini belum lagi ditambahi isu pemutusan hubungan kerja besar-besaran pada tahun 2009 mendatang. In my opinion, laying off your staffs could not be the best option to survive the recession.

So how can we boost our sales now? How may it be? Whilst, demands are slowing down and prices remain "ridiculous". There are still may ways to boost your sales. You don't have to spend money to attend international exhibitions and build great pavillion to show off your products. Be wise! It's now our time to boost sales by "redefining" our company's website in another point of view.

Jadi, bila selama ini Anda cuma menganggap bahwa website perusahaan Anda cuma profil dan brosur online, ubahlah mindset itu segera. Kindly consider these Click here to read more...

Aqua: Donasi Korporasi Untuk Publik

Sebagai orang awam, yang segera terlintas di pikiranku adalah kapan saya dan kita bisa berbuat lebih, melakukan tindakan nyata untuk publik yang seperti itu. Dibatasi oleh banyak hal, terutama dana, banyak dari kita (yes! Many of us...) yang bersikap apatis dan langsung "ogah" untuk melangkah jauh.

What I'd love to say here is, this shouldn't be a matter of exception. Apa yang dilakukan oleh korporasi-korporasi, seperti Danone Aqua, adalah kebijakan terbaik untuk menghimpun profit dari masyarakat dan mengembalikannya ke publik dalam bentuk yang riil. Bukannya saya bertindak sebagai blogger yang dibayar untuk menulis hal ini. Nope!... Saya tidak dibayar untuk itu. Tapi Click here to read more...

Social Time Bomb of Jakarta

It's always interesting to observe and analyze the social issues covering up Jakarta. This capital of Indonesia, has complex problems in terms of many things and would have gained the impacts within.

Set up your steps to humble poor kampongs and societies in Jakarta. Surrounding the skyscrappers and huge malls, these are all panorama of contradiction we may looking at. The gap is too wide to be measured. On one side, there are people who have accesses to sufficient and luxurious living, transportation, food, entertainment, education, and good jobs - though it's stressful sometimes. Contrary to this, most people spend more than half of their salary (and wages) for transportation purpose, and Click here to read more...
