Résumé :
Folk instruments, which play an important role in the production and transferof music, are cultural products that sometimes give voice to non-expressible feelings,save time for remembering the lyrics, increase the joy by adding to the sound, andsometimes maintain the rituals and serves as a means of communication. Thematerials they are made from, their shape and sound, they bear the traces of societyand they are also the most important indicator of character of music. As ancient ashumanity in terms of existence, they are the proof of cultural values of humanity withtheir rich variety. Besides the variety of our traditional folk instruments that take onthe primary task in continuation of musical tradition, they have representatives too.Such representatives sometimes take the name of the traditional art which theyproduce and sometimes they are called by the name of the folk instrument they play;they show themselves by various names and qualities such as minstrel, bard,tambourine (tef/def) player, tabor (deblek/delbek) player, reed (sipsili) player,uyguncak playerThe representatives, who contribute to the creation and maintenance oftraditional music in company with the traditional folk instruments, represent theirinstruments by remaining loyal to their cultural identities as well as their social roles.The places where they produce music with such traditional instruments rangesdepending on mentioned indicative elements in indoor-outdoor verbal culturalenvironments such as village wedding, henna night, farewell ceremonies for soldiers,city/town festivals, culture houses, places of worship, high pastures, nomad campingsites, etc. In this point, when we look at the adventure of our traditional folkinstruments, we see that women take over the role of representative and even thoughthey create special expression styles in terms of music and lyrics during thisadventure, they do not have a room for themselves under such roof.In this context, considering the fact that although female representatives oftraditional folk instruments have moved to big cities or their local characteristicshave somehow changed even though they continue living in their hometowns, theyare a part of this tradition with their current characteristics and productions styles; wewant to keep such musical soul alive, which has existed in all periods and willcontinue to exist, to make artistic identities of female representatives visible and toaccompany to their existence stories. Date obtained via field records have beenanalyzed within the contexts of expression styles of female representatives oftraditional folk music in the 21stcentury, their playing techniques, creation process oftheir musical products, transfer methods, the function of music in the lives of suchfemale representatives and reflection of their female identities into music

Résumé :
<p class="0abstract"><strong>—</strong> In these days of online commerce, we need to know the real behavior of consumers in physical stores: the points of sale must anticipate the purchasing decisions of consumers in order to be able to offer the best buying experience as well as tailor the marketing variables to the specific needs of each consumer. This is where retail intelligence emerges, especially in the textile industry, as a potential technology that makes use of extremely large data sets (“big data”) to engage potential customers better in order to increase company sales. The objective of this study is to show how big data can be effectively leveraged for direct and clear commercial purposes in textile stores. The development of research is based on the analysis of the application of systematic observation of consumer behavior in three main streets in Spain known for textile retail stores and interpreting their differences. The results show that data collected through various point-of-sale devices have a significant influence on retail revenue. The differences between commercial areas and the relative attractiveness of the textile trade in different cities are also borne out by the results. The main conclusions point to the need to improve the profitability of textile fashion stores on the back of promotional tactics that focus on the number of estimated customers and the possibilities of selling to them. All of the aforesaid have a significant influence on how advertising planning is carried out for retail stores.</p>

Résumé :
With continuous innovation and wide application of technologies such as the Internet and big data, the Internet economy has flourished, laying the foundation for the transformation of physical retailing to new retailing. The main advantage of new retailing lies in the combination of the quality experience of physical stores with the high efficiency of online retailing, which points the way for the development of the retail industry. Taking Walmart Company, a world-renowned retail industry giant, as a case study, the paper adopts the 7PS marketing mix theory to study the current marketing situation of Walmart Company. The research found that Walmart has problems such as unreasonable packaging and display of some products and an inefficient logistics supply chain. To this end, this paper proposes optimization solutions including the improvement in product quality, the investment in intelligent information technology, and the construction of a centralized supply chain management model.

Résumé :
The T Eaton company, considered the world's first department store, was named after its founder Timothy Eaton. In 1869, it as a small dry goods business in Toronto. By 1907, at the death of its founder, it was a giant retail store, with a branch in Winnipeg, alongside a country-wide mail-order business. Innovative practices established during his time included sales for cash only and satisfaction guaranteed or money refunded. Eaton's successors extended the Eaton empire across Canada, continuing the tradition of quality goods, prices, customer service and also fair labour practices. It became a Canadian institution. Eaton's filed for protection from its creditors in February 1997 and once again in August 1999 (see Appendix 1 for a chronology of events) under the federal Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act and the Ontario Business Corporations Act (Closings). The restructuring that followed the first bankruptcy was only partially successful. However, it had a significantly positive impact on Eaton's operations, and seemed to turn things around. Were it not for bad economic news and misfortune in mid-to-late 1998 (CNW 3 and CNW 5), the plan might have worked. Store-closings, employee terminations, and a huge liquidation sale followed the second bankruptcy declared in August 1999, as did the suspension of the trading of Eaton's stock (Chron). Sears Canada Inc. agreed to purchase 16 of the Eaton's stores in September 1999 (Sears 1; Material 1). These will open by the fall of 2000 (Material 2; Sears 1). A compromise was made with Eaton's creditors (including the employees) to give them approximately $0.50 on the dollar (Olijnyk 1). A compromise was also arrived at with Eaton's shareholders whereby the latter would be given participation units in exchange for their common shares (on a one-for-one trade) (Amended; Trachuk). These participation units are to be used in a contingent and conditional settlement based upon the possible utilization of tax credits by Sears acquired as a result of Eaton's $390 million in losses since 1996 (Receivership; Amended; Trachuk). These settlement monies might or might not be realized by the former shareholders (Amended; Trachuk). Today, Eaton's is no more. In its place are many great memories by a former generation of Canadians who used to go to the Eaton's stores to buy big things that were always of high quality. "Agnes Lunn, who was visiting [Edmonton, Calgary,] from Dartmouth, N.S., said she will miss the chain because of its trustworthiness. "If you bought something from Eaton's, you knew it was worth having, you knew it would be quality," she said (Auction)." Perhaps having six of the Eaton's stores open up this fall with the Eaton's name on them will rekindle a loyalty in a new generation of Canadians?

Résumé :
Beef price in Jakarta has increasing trends caused by the long chain distribution. The big gap of beef price between producer and consumer showed the distribution chains are less efficient. The objectives of this research to study of distribution channels, marketing margin, the efficiency of marketing and price transmission elasticity of beef in Jakarta. The analytical methods used include margin distribution approach and Cobb Douglas function. Based on the observations, beef and beef cattle distribution channel in traditional markets are: small farmer / beef cattle importir, feedlot industry, regional wholesaler, butcher, slaughter house, grocer, and small retailer. Meanwhile on the modern market are: beef cattle importir/breeding farm and local cattle feedlotter, feedlot industry, slaughter company + beef supplier and modern market stores. Pattern one of live cattle distribution channel has higher marketing margins from small farmer to regional wholesaler and to the butcher with value of 69.73%. The highest marketing margin value of meat distribution is in pattern two from the slaughter company and beef supplier to modern market, then to consumer with value of 39%. Marketing efficiency value to the traditional market beef was 3.47%, meanwhile to the modern market stores was 16.11%. The price transmission elasticity in the six regions of the beef cattle supplier on the meat price at the retail level in Jakarta were 0.788 (Jawa Tengah), 0.923 (Jawa Timur), 0.943 (Jogjakarta), 0.751 (Lampung), 0.762 (NTB), and 0.767 (NTT).Keyword: beef cattles, beef distribution, marketing margin, markerting efficiency, price transmition elasticity

Résumé :
This article discusses features of enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems that aim to help small engineering firms in managing their businesses. With the proliferation of ERP systems and vendors in the past decade, the big vendors as well as a series of small and niche players are now marketing their offerings for the small-to-midsize company and for specialized companies. Small companies often find that ERP systems give them better control of inventory and production scheduling. The engineer-to-order operation has unique needs that can be met by a specialized ERP system. Jobscope, a company in Greenville, South Carolina, makes ERP software especially for small-to-midsize engineer-to-order companies. In order to serve engineer-to-order type of engineering companies, the Jobscope system stores business information on a per project rather than a company-wide basis. It is because engineer-to-order companies batch and track jobs on a project basis. The experts agree that bringing in an ERP system might seem daunting to the smaller engineering operation. However, they also agree on another thing: it can help small companies manage the complexities of growing business.

Résumé :
Abstract Faulkner had probably just returned from the annual deer hunt at General Stone’s lodge, thirty miles west of Oxford, Mississippi, on the edge of the Delta. He was two months past his thirtieth birthday and had reason to be feeling good. Thanks to Phil Stone’s friendship over the years, he had grown accustomed to spending time with the larger Stone family—wealthy, privileged, and planterly, as Faulkner’s family was not. One of the pleasures of this connection was the renewed hunting it afforded. He may even have remembered Phil’s telling of his first bear—a vignette so vivid that it was as though it had happened to Faulkner too. Just fifteen years old, Phil had seen the bear, stood his ground, fired, and closed his eyes. When he opened them, the bear was sprawled out before him, dead. The other hunters put Phil through the ritual “blooding” that attends a boy’s first kill. They smeared his face with the bear’s blood, initiating him into the yearly hunting of wild creatures, in the company of men. Throughout his life, Faulkner would find ways to reenact the ceremony of hunting in the big woods, in the company of men. It confirmed—graciously, wordlessly— his sense of himself.

Enterprise Social Networks have a similar set of functionalities as social networking sites but are run as closed applications within a company's intranet. Interacting and communicating on the Enterprise Social Networks, the users, i.e. a company's employees, leave digital traces. The resulting digital record stored in the platform's back end bears great potential for enterprise big data engineering, analytics, and management. This book chapter provides an overview of research in the area of Enterprise Social Networks and categorizes Enterprise Social Network data based on typical functionalities of these platforms. It introduces exemplary metrics as well as a process for the analysis of ESN data. The resulting framework for the analysis of Enterprise Social Network data can serve as a guideline for researchers in the area of Enterprise Social Network analytics and companies interested in analyzing the data stored in the application's back end.

Résumé :
Back when scam artists sent snail-mail instead of e-mail, I received a letter that began “Dear friend,” a clear sign it was from someone trying to sell me something. Nonetheless, I read a bit more and saw this line highlighted in yellow: “IMAGINE turning $1,000 into $34,500 in less than one year!” Real friends don’t highlight their sentences, but I pushed on, thinking I might share this BS with my students. Sure enough, it was a con. The letter said that “no special background or education” was needed and that, “It’s an investment you can make with spare cash that you might ordinarily spend on lottery tickets or the race track.”Now I wasn’t sure that I wanted to share this letter, lest my students wonder where this company had gotten my name. I don’t buy lottery tickets or bet on horses. What had I done that made this company think I was a sucker? The letter claimed that, instead of wasting my money on lottery tickets and horse races, I could get rich buying low-priced stocks. For example, the price of LKA International had jumped from 2 cents a share to 69 cents a share in a few months, which would have turned $1,000 into $34,500. All I had to do was pay $39 for a special report that would give me access to “the carefully guarded territory of a few shrewd ‘inner circle’ investors.” The entire premise is ridiculous. If someone really knew how to turn $1,000 into $34,500, they would be doing it, instead of selling special reports for $39. Yet, we repeatedly fall for such scams because we are hard-wired to think that the world is governed by regular laws that we can discover and exploit. Stock prices cannot be random. There must be underlying patterns, like night and day, winter and summer. Our gullibility is aided and abetted by our greed—by the notion that it is easier to make money by buying and selling stocks than by being a butcher, baker, or candlestick maker. The inconvenient truth is that zigs and zags in stock prices are mostly random, yet transitory patterns can be found in random numbers. If we look for them, we will find them and be fooled by them.

Bipin Preet Singh and Upasana Taku, the power couple of the FinTech world, had sought to differentiate their wallet company by turning it into a microloan disbursement platform. Simultaneously, they had been extending the number of physical stores that accept MobiKwik payments. Mobikwik's image suffered a big blow in February 2021 when it was reported to have compromised the KYC details of over 3.5 million users, in addition to making personal details of 100 million phone users public, which landed the startup on the radar of the regulator Reserve Bank of India following an RTI (Right to Information Act 2005) petition. This also had an impact on its future IPO. The markets had not been receptive to FinTechs accessing capital markets, and its competitor company Paytm's IPO was a disaster. Crises planning and associated risk management was vital for MobiKwik. Was the response to the crises appropriate and effective? Bipin and Upasana were dealing with issues impacting their brand reputation and a possible fallout and impact on their upcoming IPO.

Résumé :
Being thrifty and frugal has become a distinct lifestyle choice. An insightful knowledge about thrifty and frugal consumers on the demand side has been revealed by previous studies. However, related issues on the supply side have largely been neglected. Therefore, this study aims to examine the projection of the thrift store images. By analyzing interviews displayed on public websites with the director and staff of Treasure Factory, a big thrift store chain in Japan, this study has revealed that the company is actively projecting its images. Among seven images, Treasure Factory is especially focusing on products, purchase processes and distribution channels (place), and customer benefits (psychology). The remaining images (prices, promotion, customers or people, and partnerships) are less emphasized but still harmoniously synchronize with and support the main images. Implications for the theory behind thrift stores and for the actual management of them are discussed based on these findings.

Résumé :
In the fall of 2006 a typical American couple named Jim and Laura drove an RV from Nevada to Georgia, blogging about their encounters with Wal-Mart employees and customers. Because Wal-Mart was one of their favorite stores, they found plenty to praise, including the morale of clerks and corporate health care benefits. Yet there was another reason their excursion reflected so well on the notoriously ruthless company: the trip was financed, and their blogging paid for, by Wal-Mart’s public relations agency. Less besotted by big box stores than were Laura and Jim, other bloggers soon began taunting them, publicly questioning whether WalmartingAcrossAmerica.com was a sham. The backlash threatened to go viral. The site was hastily dismantled, and the PR firm brusquely apologized. Yet the incident was immortalized on the strength of a word that perfectly embodied the flacks’ marketing folly. Walmarting Across America became the first big flog. Flog is not an unusual coinage for the web, where words are routinely mashed up to accommodate intersecting ideas and high-speed typing. Films combining porno and gore are sometimes dubbed gorno, and the proliferation of girdles for men has begotten the mirdle. Even flog has had several other incarnations, including abbreviations for family blog, food blog, photo blog, and For the love of God. What distinguishes the current example is the cunning play on words, the sly (if less than subtle) reference to flogging, old slang for selling goods of dubious merit, derived from cant for flagellation. Used in reference to flack blogs such as Walmarting Across America, flog sounds like what it is: a term for PR chicanery. Flog has much to recommend it linguistically, not least its appropriation of blog, one of the most successful neologisms in Internet history. Yet despite its mix of pedigree and wit, flog is well on its way to oblivion. Flog has foundered for many of the reasons that blog has flourished, and their apparent similarities reveal their real differences. Both words originated as contractions, yet blog was almost as arbitrary as flog was deliberate.

Résumé :
Supply chain management involves efficiently integrating suppliers, manufacturers, warehouses, stores, and customers. To survive in a highly competitive business environment, manufacturing, resource planning and scheduling and distribution operations are the significant drivers that need to be optimized within supply chain management. In this chapter, we design the supply chain system considering dual demand management strategies simultaneously for the same company, both engineer-to-order (ETO) and make-to-order (MTO). This research has been inspired from the window manufacturer which manufactures and distributes vinyl windows to meet new construction and replacement/remodeling sector demand in the State of Ohio. The company manufacturers windows based on make-to-order strategy for new construction projects and at the same time builds replacement windows to individual customer specifications in very small quantities to be used for replacement in homes. In this study, a total of 174 individual customers and six big contractors are considered throughout the State of Ohio. This paper proposes to separate products based on demand management strategy and develop different supply chain networks for each group. The idea is to design bigger facilities for high volume (make-to-order products) as transportation cost per unit is reduced due to economies of scale whereas to place smaller and more facilities for low volume engineer-to-order products to be closer to the clients where it may not feasible to carry a only few products over long distances. All in all, this study provides nested models to integrate both design and operational aspects of supply chain system in the presence high-volume and low-volume of window products. Moreover, all location, design and manufacturing operations are performed by considering new mathematical models (mixed-integer and integer mathematical models) and heuristics in engineer-to-order demand management environment. Normally-distributed, probabilistic demand environment is considered in our design and operational phase of the study. Preliminary results show that, each design has its own strategic advantage and outcome and the ultimate objective has been accomplished in our design in this study. Briefly, four manufacturing facilities are established to meet the demand of replacement/remodeling sector and two manufacturing facilities are situated to meet the demand of new construction sector. The results revealed that, 29 layered-cells and a total of 200 machines are opened and utilized for replacement/remodeling sector.

Résumé :
Supply chain management involves efficiently integrating suppliers, manufacturers, warehouses, stores, and customers. To survive in a highly competitive business environment, manufacturing, resource planning and scheduling and distribution operations are the significant drivers that need to be optimized within supply chain management. In this chapter, we design the supply chain system considering dual demand management strategies simultaneously for the same company, both engineer-to-order (ETO) and make-to-order (MTO). This research has been inspired from the window manufacturer which manufactures and distributes vinyl windows to meet new construction and replacement/remodeling sector demand in the State of Ohio. The company manufacturers windows based on make-to-order strategy for new construction projects and at the same time builds replacement windows to individual customer specifications in very small quantities to be used for replacement in homes. In this study, a total of 174 individual customers and six big contractors are considered throughout the State of Ohio. This paper proposes to separate products based on demand management strategy and develop different supply chain networks for each group. The idea is to design bigger facilities for high volume (make-to-order products) as transportation cost per unit is reduced due to economies of scale whereas to place smaller and more facilities for low volume engineer-to-order products to be closer to the clients where it may not feasible to carry a only few products over long distances. All in all, this study provides nested models to integrate both design and operational aspects of supply chain system in the presence high-volume and low-volume of window products. Moreover, all location, design and manufacturing operations are performed by considering new mathematical models (mixed-integer and integer mathematical models) and heuristics in engineer-to-order demand management environment. Normally-distributed, probabilistic demand environment is considered in our design and operational phase of the study. Preliminary results show that, each design has its own strategic advantage and outcome and the ultimate objective has been accomplished in our design in this study. Briefly, four manufacturing facilities are established to meet the demand of replacement/remodeling sector and two manufacturing facilities are situated to meet the demand of new construction sector. The results revealed that, 29 layered-cells and a total of 200 machines are opened and utilized for replacement/remodeling sector. Additionally, 15 layered-cells and a total of 104 machines are needed to cover the entire demand of new construction sector. Also for the new construction sector, three distribution centers are needed to facilitate the products over the region. In terms of daily cell loading and scheduling phase, the results are almost doubled in replacement/remodeling sector demand compared to new construction sector demand volume due to having more cells and machines in the new construction design strategy. The supply chain work involves location and number of manufacturing facilities, number and location of distribution centers, detailed design of manufacturing systems and performing scheduling to confirm the validity of the manufacturing system design.

Résumé :
Small, family-run grocery stores, known as tiendas de abarrotes, are essential for supplying basic goods and services in thousands of low-income rural communities in Mexico.These stores are convenient -many are open 24 hours a day -but they normally charge higher prices than supermarkets and other large retailers in big cities, because of their reduced economies of scale and higher associated transportation costs. Mi Tienda, a Mexican company sponsored by private Mexican and international social investors, is dedicated to improving the lives of low-income families, enhancing the efficiency of the rural supply chain, and increasing the sales and productivity of small family-owned rural grocery stores. Providing door-to-door supply of basic products, as well as consultancy and training services, Mi Tienda focuses on benefiting small grocery stores in communities with populations of less than 5,000 inhabitants.
