Plenty of businesses use post-it notes. No matter what type of company they are, whether they're large corporations or small, family run companies, post-it notes are pretty often seen dotted around the workplace. They're small, convenient and easy to use - and make for an excellent way of jotting down reminders, information or notes for colleagues in a format that is unobtrusive and even fun. Because of this, post-it notes are the ideal item to use for company promotion. You can ensure that your customers never forget your business by handing out promotional post-it pads - all the convenience of the traditional post-it, but with the addition of your company logo and contact details. And as post-it notes are so widely used by just about anybody, you can be sure that your brand name will get out there. People don't just use post-its in the workplace; they're used in school, at home, and even out and about when people want to make notes and references, or leave messages for others. If you bring a stack of promotional post-it pads with you to a business conference or in client gift sets, you won't have to worry about your brand being spread around. In fact, you could be...more

You have to have a plan, a plan to change whatever process it is you are looking at. There are good ways to save money like increasing efficiency and bad ways of cutting costs like using inferior parts.Most people hear the term and cost reduction assumes that means cutting jobs and work. It is not always cut jobs and work is to find a better way to do the job. But before you can even make cost savings in the first or change in the process, you must watch the entire scope of the process, called the value chain. The value chain is the entire process from beginning to end.If you are talking about a manufacturing process, it includes everything from ordering, construction, shipping the finished product. These processes are often large and attention to detail, so it is easier to break it down and see all the individual processes that make up the entire workflow. In this way, looking at the whole and parts, you can see how one part affects other parts and make decisions based on the whole process and not just what works for one party or department. It is therefore...more
