Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper examines new approaches to marketing that are more specialized than those in the past. The paper defines mass marketing and micro marketing and gives examples of when they are most effective. Additionally, the paper reviews an article by Anthony Bianco, Tom Lowry, Robert Berner, Michael Arndt entitled "The Vanishing Mass Market," which analyzes the shift from mass marketing and mass production to micro marketing and mass product customization. The paper also discusses the implications for the economy of the shift from mass marketing to micro marketing.
From the Paper "The revolution consumers want starts with advertising tailored specifically to their tastes, followed by products that can be customized to their needs. The article by Bianco, Lowry, Berner, Arndt (2004) analyzes the shift from mass marketing and mass production to micro marketing, and with that shift, mass product customization. The differences the authors provide between mass marketing and micro marketing is best crystallized in the shift consumers are continually forcing towards more individualized, relevant, and tailored messages. This move to more specific advertising and promotion to consumers is making mass marketing, through the mediums of TV, print, and radio, less effective for marketers to use. In their place, the development and refining of messaging for Web sites, cell phones, PDAs, and highly specific media buying on cable networks that have themselves tailored their content to the needs of a specific audience...."

From the Paper "Nestle is a large company and its main aims are to maintain or increase its market share and sales volume in order to have stability in the market. Nestle adopts a sales oriented pricing scheme. Increase in sales volume would be advantageous to a company like Nestle because it allows for rapid growth and intimidates other companies which would like to enter the same market. Increasing or maintaining market share ensures that Nestle's products are the most widely used by consumers, giving Nestle market confidence in its products. This in turn could increase share prices and the stock because Nestle is regarded to be in a relatively stable position compared to other companies in the same market."

From the Paper "Starbucks' segmentation is also globally-focused, as can be seen from the world map shown in the following graphic. Segmenting globally has raised an entirely new set of revenue opportunities for the company, which expects by 2009 to have the majority of its revenue generated outside the United States. Investment analysts tracking Starbucks agree with this assessment. The backlash against globalization from western corporations is a major issue for Starbucks global growth plans, and their approach to highly customizing their stores and hiring only local workers, giving them health insurance, profit sharing, and respecting local customs has helped make globalization successful to this point. There is an abundance of work going on inside Starbucks right now to bring GIS expertise in-house to aid in their segmentation planning based on taking both demographic, psychographic and attitudinal segmentation criteria overlaid against potential market areas."

Global and Domestic Marketing, 2004. An analysis of macro-environmental forces that affect global and domestic marketing decisions. 1,024 words (approx. 4.1 pages), 8 sources, MLA, $ 36.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract An organization's marketing environment comprises of its internal make-up, its micro-environment such as its external customers and distributors and the macro-environment. This paper focuses on how three of the macro-environmental forces affect global and domestic marketing decisions. The three macro-environmental factors discussed are political, economic and cultural factors.
From the Paper "Currently, of course, a growing recognition of the important role global trade plays in bringing about a healthy world and domestic economy has led to governments agreeing to create GATT (General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade), among other trade liberalization efforts. As a result, these political measures have made it easier for companies to conduct international trade and investment and to globalize their production, distribution, and general business operations (Rao, 2001, p. 3-4). Marketing planners, nevertheless, must take the global macro-environment, into consideration since other factors such as other political tensions will continue to affect organizational performance. In a similar vein, although many of the world's nations have increasingly moved towards liberalization of their local economies, political factors continue to affect organizational decisions pertaining to specific domestic markets."

American Mass Media, 2008. This paper analyzes the conflict of mass media versus the individual ethics of journalism in relation to the War in Iraq. 1,722 words (approx. 6.9 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 55.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The paper examines the conflict between mass media organizations and the individual ethics of journalism through the sociological and philosophical views of Max Weber and Aristotle. The paper discusses the capitalistic tendency for mass media to control an "authoritarian" point of view favorable to the American interest in Iraq. The paper focuses on the issue of ethics regarding the lack of an individual's capacity to attain objective news coverage.
From the Paper "The relative situation in Iraq one now see holds a great lack of overall research into individual perceptions of the War in Iraq, and why journalists tend to look at larger, more sweeping views on the conflict between Americans and Iraqis. In this manner, many mass media journalists seem to focus on the numbers of soldiers involved, the American governments reaction to the war, and other larger macrocosmic focuses that reflect an interest in an American perception, rather than the suffering of the native peoples who have to live through this war. During the coverage of the war, there are often American points of views that define the combat through American perspectives. For instance, journalist George Packer shows an Iraqi woman's point of view and why she wants to side with the Americans."

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The following discussion evaluates the key issues related to a case study involving the Woodlands Corporation. The writer points out that the firm has experienced some challenges in their efforts to attract new business for the Micro-Lan line, which is a feasible alternative to traditional lumber. The writer further notes that it is expected that Micro-Lan will provide long-term benefits over its competitors over time.
From the Paper "The Woodlands Corporation has been very successful in the production of a variety of wood products since its modest beginning, and the business has thrived in its three distinct divisions. The firm's Micro-Lam product emerged with the potential for substantial sales growth, but it was essential to develop an effective marketing and promotion plan that would satisfy all possible customer needs. Micro-Lam was advertised as a feasible alternative to traditional lumber products, since it was not prone to many of the same circumstances as these products, such as warping and wear and tear."

President Versus Parliament, Proportional versus Pluralistic, 2000. A discussion on how to elect leaders. 2,010 words (approx. 8.0 pages), 5 sources, $ 63.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper discusses the two most common debates on how governments should be elected. Eastern Europe has been and continues to go through major, turbulent changes on its way to democracy. It became clear very early on that ?simply? sitting down and thinking of a new way to govern was going to take a very long time. One of the earliest problems that needed to be solved, besides how to govern, was how to elect the new government. The two most common debates, then, were ?President vs. Parliament? and ?Proportional Representation vs. Majoritarian (or Pluralistic) Representation?. This piece explores the merits and pitfalls on each side of both coins.
From the Paper "Both supporters of a presidential system and supporters of a parliamentary system agree on several elements of the governing systems. First, the more centralized the system, the quicker things get accomplished. It takes a lot more time for a verbal argument to be presented and debated in an assembly than for one man?s synapses to fire in the decision making process. Behind the flagship democratic movement, Solidarity, was a single man, Lech Wal_sa, pushing decisions through. It is argued that this non-democratic form of decision making was necessary to achieve the desired result - that the end justified the means. Regardless, decisions were made quickly in response to the daily problems of mass strikes and city hall demonstrations. As for parliamentary systems, most scholars agree that strong, well-defined political parties are needed (Zielonka, 97). The world of parliamentary decision making is one of compromise and coalition. Without effective parties that reduce the number of shouting voices from hundreds to several, sessions of parliament can easily turn into personal ?slugfests?. Parties are just beginning to truly define themselves in Eastern Europe, emerging from the obsolete umbrellas that united them against a common enemy, and have not had the time to fully develop."

Good versus Evil in the Bible, 2005. An examination of the theme of good versus evil in the Bible, focusing on the battles of Horus versus Seth and God versus Lucifer. 1,466 words (approx. 5.9 pages), 5 sources, MLA, $ 48.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper follows the course of a legendary myth: "The Feud Between Horus and Seth". The writer examines this myth and finds the parallels to Christianity. It points out that even those who do not practice as Christians are well aware of the Bible's teaching of Lucifer, commonly known as the Devil, and God, a perfect example of good versus evil. The paper begins by reliving the myth of Horus and Seth, followed by the Biblical tale of the fall of Lucifer and the casting to Hell. It then looks at the aspects of these stories and explores commonalities that have transcended time and place to depict this constant struggle for one's very soul.
From the Paper "There is no rebuke that religion has played at the forefront of the Earth's Religions over time. These Religions or belief systems have ranged in iconology and practice but common threads are clear and concise. Most notably is the idea of "Dualism". Merriam Webster defines Dualism as a "doctrine that the universe is under the dominion of two opposing principles one of which is good and the other evil." With this definition we can further elaborate of the meaning of the concept as an intricate balance, here of good vs. evil. This theme may be as widespread as civilizations needed to classify their residents and at the same time teach them the difference between good and evil. Egyptians used Mythology to educate their society on behavior and religion. Myths are based on rivalry or struggle of the Myths characters."

Mass Murder in History, 2001. This paper discusses mass murder throughout the ages. 1,800 words (approx. 7.2 pages), 3 sources, $ 57.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper discusses the lessons that can be learned on why political mass murder has occurred, how it can be prevented in the future, and an analysis of the history of western civilization since the 17th century.
From the paper:
"Mass murder like mass hysteria is a terrifying phenomenon to which the Western civilization has succumbed to all too easily in the bygone eras. As the term suggests, mass murder is the brutal killing of a massive population for a variety of reasons that can be either religious, moral and social or political, bigoted and racist in nature. Whatever the causes, mass murder remains one of those episodes in the history of Western civilization, which one would gladly like to forget. However not many measure up to the extermination of European Jews that occurred during the Second World War. This was a tragedy of insurmountable proportions and can be attributed to Hitler?s propagandist campaign that successfully mobilized the German masses, particularly the youth of the country. This incident better known as the Holocaust can be described as the extermination of European Jews by the Nazis during the years 1939-45."

Abstract
A Micro-Culture That Does Not Include Me
Micro-Culture that Does Include Me
Closing Thoughts
From the Paper " When referring to the micro-culture of Religion, what is being referred to for the purposes of this paper, is a micro-culture that consists of people who share common thoughts, beliefs and perceptions, more specifically, faith in God. However, the faith that defines this micro-culture also creates several other positive attributes that help to define the culture itself, such as respect for one's elders, leaders and government. Pride in one's country, patriotism to be more precise, is a key ingredient. Core values that are exemplified by the Religious micro-culture encompass honesty, integrity, respect, trust, and humility; these core values have helped to shape positive religious movements for hundreds upon hundreds of years and helped to establish America so many years ago (Welty, 1981)."
