  The Finance Curse - How Global...

  An “artfully presented [and] engaging” look at the insidious effects of financialization on our lives and politics by the author of Treasure Islands (The Boston Globe). 
   
  How didthe banking sector grow from a supporter of business to the biggest business in the world? Financial journalist Nicholas Shaxson takes us on a terrifying journey through the world economy, exposing tax havens, monopolists, megabanks, private equity firms, Eurobond traders, lobbyists, and a menagerie of scoundrels quietly financializing our entire society, hurting both business and individuals. 
   
  Shaxson shows how we got here, telling the story of how finance re-engineered the global economic order in the last half-century, with the aim not of creating wealth but extracting it from the underlying economy. Under the twin gospels of “national competitiveness” and “shareholder value,” megabanks and financialized corporations have provoked a race to the bottom between states to provide the most subsidized environment for big business, encouraged a brain drain into finance, fostered instability and inequality, and turned a blind eye to the spoils of organized crime. From Ireland to Iowa, he shows the insidious effects of financialization on our politics and on communities who were promised paradise but got poverty wages instead. 
   
  We need a strong financial system—but when it grows too big it becomes a monster. The Finance Curse is the explosive story of how finance got a stranglehold on society, and reveals how we might release ourselves from its grasp. 
   
  Revised with new chapters 
   
  “[Discusses] corrupt financiers in London and New York City, geographically obscure tax havens, the bizarre realm of wealth managers in South Dakota, a ravaged newspaper in New Jersey, and a shattered farm economy in Iowa . . . A vivid demonstration of how corruption and greed have become the main organizing principles in the finance industry.” —Kirkus Reviews

  Asking Questions The Sandler Way...

  When does the sales process really begin? Some say that sales starts at the very first "hello." Everything before that first critical opening word, these people say, is marketing; everything after that is sales. Others say that the real work of sales doesn't begin till the prospect first says, "No." "Otherwise," they insist, "it's just order-taking."Antonio Garrido's Asking Questions the Sandler Way rejects both of those answers. It holds that selling begins when you start asking good questions. This book is about asking the right questions, so that both the seller and the buyer discover the right solution as efficiently and as effectively as possible—even if they discover that the right solution right now is for the prospect to buy from the competition. Although that may be an unconventional selling standard, it's a powerful and extremely effective one.This book is about not looking, sounding, or thinking like the average salesperson. It's about keeping barriers down and communication lines open. It's about getting to the right solution, faster, more efficiently, and with less stress. It's about asking the right questions, in the right way, at the right time, for the right reason. It's about asking questions the Sandler way.

  To gain a competitive edge in the manufacturing industry, one needs to have a thorough discernment of the demographic trends and buying habits of the target audience. People need to be abreast of the industry drift and the competitive status to decide the business objectives. Once people have drawn up the objectives, they need to devise a strategy to attain those targets. Strategic planning entails recognizing the threats and prospects demonstrated by the business enterprise. What are inner manufacturing strengths and weaknesses? Does the business have the resilience and monetary capacity to address these threats and take advantage of those opportunities presented in hand?  
  It is not all aspects that should comprise the strategy at once. One needs to concentrate on a component where the gap can be plugged and get a competitive advantage. Serving the needs of this issue in the industry becomes a strategic goal. Strategic marketing takes into consideration the business's long-term goals like business expansion, discovering new demographics, or generating a new brand. Thus, it involves an in-house financial department's expertise that can determine the fund allocation to reach the preset goals.
