The seller or the seller types: Parma ham ‘. And obtained during the ham, unpacked, and cut a few slices, the customer sees already: the current offer of the supermarket is a matching red wine that, left standing on the third shelf. Or he presented a beautiful honeydew melon with appropriate recipes and serving suggestions. The customer can look at then, he waits so long, this is can be sure also to animate in case of one or the other, to buy the red wine or the melon to the Parma ham “, explains Rebetzky. In addition, his company build up a large database, which offers important additional information about products, from origin of allergens to nutrients.

The Parma ham comes from the Parma region, from the small village of XY, has a certain fat – and salt to the nutritional value, the minerals, vitamins and allergens. So he can make a very good picture. This content management on the scale is a very exciting topic because it refines the human-scale interaction”, so Rebetzky. What will increasingly take place in the future, is profiling. So you could advise, if he wishes it, personalized the customers. Someone has, for example, a milk protein allergy and can digest any raw milk cheese, then the information that a selected cheese containing milk protein of great importance is for him.

He could keep his customer card at the scale and the information tailored to him: this cheese is for you due to the milk protein content not to be recommended. And the more we know the customer, we can also give the truer tips him. Let me give another example: many sales decisions are age-dependent. Customers of the younger generation, maybe more often, have a party. And these customers will get then more party tips, like the cheap chips or tortillas in the promotion and the matching pickled olives, because you know, in this generation there is more finger food. The middle generation, however, which is usually more money but less time available, “would you rather recommend the upscale Tuscan cold cuts plate with Parma ham and salami of Parma and some ciabatta to do so”, says Rebetzky, who will present the most important technology trends in the trade trade Congress Voice days plus in Nuremberg.

The State has the task to protect the livelihood of the local economy, to oversee the economy, to ensure a healthy mix of large, medium and small enterprises and to ensure obtaining maximum income for the whole of the people. (LV RLP VI. Artikel 51). ” What does that mean? It means that the various factors to be considered are: physical goods to satisfy the vital needs of the people social justice and decent existence maximum yield and mix different sizes of business. So the profit of a company has a natural adversary: the decent existence. This concerns the employees, which are also part of the people of course first and foremost. Article 52 is something clear: the economic freedom of the individual finds its limits in respect of the rights of the next and the requirements of the common good”. “The Easter falls one perhaps someone one who asked the question: who is in reality my neighbor?” (Luke 10,29).

The next”is actually not mandatory can be found at the top managers. The employees are the next”of a company. It is important to create a balance between company sizes. The more “enterprise organizations in a region are present, they are more powerful. Now you may wonder why the State doesn’t mind, or even encourages this attitude.

An entrepreneur who in his company tolerate no Works Council, and dismissed each newly elected Council once gave me this answer. He said: if I don’t like the country, I’m closing the company. I earned enough “.” What we need in this region is more balance between all interests. Every entrepreneur can continue to train employees and qualify instead of him to released. This could use just the older applicants intimated by Ms. Anita Baljewic, or people with disabilities. If we qualify medium to long term more people further we can sophisticated fashion the work and business processes, and in the long term to serve as the region. One should not forget one as an employee, nor as an entrepreneur: all resources are limited, even human. The question is, how to use them, and whether they are gently used. We represent the true capital of this Covenant and the country: the workers. Why not again we buy our books at the bookstore of our confidence on the ground? You can see directly to do something good to whom. And we weaken the power of the large company.
