Seminario para optar al grado de Ingeniero Comercial, Mención Administración y Mención Economía / En el presente seminario de título se describen y analizan las principales características que han llevado a ASOS.com a ser una de las tiendas online más exitosas a nivel mundial, debido a esto se propone como proyecto de emprendimiento replicar su modelo en Chile, por medio de una plataforma web MYTO.cl. ASOS crea valor al proponer una experiencia diferente de compra online, su sitio web ofrece valor gracias a características que no se pueden obtener visitando una tienda tradicional. La compra online es conveniente, rápida, cómoda, se puede realizar solo o acompañado, hay acceso a miles de productos de diseños y estilos interesantes, precios competitivos, diversas marcas y diseñadores, productos exclusivos, además de espacios de co-creación entre usuarios y diseñadores en la misma página web. Ahora bien para adaptar y replicar este modelo de negocios en Chile se debió realizar un análisis del atractivo de la Industria del E-Tail enfocado en el vestuario en Chile. Se concluyo que dicha industria es atractiva para el caso de etailers que posean los recursos físicos y monetarios para crear una plataforma web en la cual se puedan vender sus productos. No sólo se debe considerar el sitio web, sino también detrás de ello debe existir un proceso logístico muy desarrollado tanto para la adquisición de los productos, control de inventarios así como despacho de los mismos. Tras las oportunidades de negocio establecidas en Chile como: mercado creciente, evolución en el gasto del vestuario en Chile, evolución del gasto por compras por internet, un estilo de vida de la sociedad chilena más estresante y con menos tiempo para comprar, dificultad para acceder a ofertas de etailers globales, se concluye que sería adecuado crear un e-tail chileno que ofrezca una plataforma web de calidad y a la vanguardia, que comercialice prendas de vestir personalizadas, es decir que se ofrezcan a nuestros futuros consumidores ropa de acuerdo a los gustos y preferencias de cada uno. La página web será www.myto.cl. MYTO significa “Moda y Tendencias Online”. Inicialmente se venderán prendas de diseñadores de vestuario independientes y de pequeñas boutiques, luego pretendemos expandirnos y vender marcas reconocidas internacionalmente. Las características que nos diferenciarán de la competencia son: oferta de productos exclusivos y que potencien a pequeños diseñadores y la disminución en los costos de comprar en tiendas tradicionales (transporte, tiempo, estacionamiento, falta de información, etc.) o internacionales (costos de envío, aduana, barreras en el idioma, etc.). En Chile no existe una plataforma web nacional que proporcione información detallada e interactiva en relación al vestuario femenino. Los grandes conglomerados suelen ofrecer productos estándares a precios competitivos, además de sitios pocos atractivos para los consumidores. Nuestro mercado objetivo son aproximadamente 820.000 personas, las cuales compren por internet, sean principalmente mujeres, entre un rango de edad entre 16 y 45 años, que compren o deseen comprar vestuario a través de internet. Deseamos posicionarnos como una marca de diseño en relación al vestuario y también como una marca con cierto reconocimiento hacia un grupo de consumidores que valoran la moda, la innovación y las nuevas tendencias. En cuanto a los recursos necesarios para iniciar el proyecto corresponde a un total de $ 111.762.330. Aún a pesar de la inversión, se concluye que el negocio es viable y es interesante, pero más importante, que sería rentable en el tiempo.

The purpose of this study was to explore employees’ knowledge at Naledi-Nkanyezi Private Hospital of the role of the employer in workplace skills development. To achieve this, a literature review was conducted which provided an in-depth knowledge of the role of the employer in workplace skills development in the South African context. The literature review looked specifically at different roles that are awarded to South African employers to train and develop their employee. These roles were classified as: financial role, human resource development role and administrative role. Although the claiming of a mandatory skills grant, the completion of a workplace skills plan and an annual training report fall within the financial and administrative aspects respectively, they were discussed separately. Furthermore the literature looked at the role of the employee as a recipient of workplace skills development programmes. The information gained from the literature review was used as the basis for the development of a survey questionnaire to explore employees’ knowledge of the employers’ role on workplace skills development. Through a systematic sampling technique a sample was selected, and a group-administered questionnaire was used to collect the data from a list of full-time employees at Naledi-Nkanyezi Private Hospital. The results obtained were used to arrive at a theoretical conclusion. The empirical study established that employees at Naledi-Nkanyezi Private Hospital have a limited knowledge of what the role of the employer is on workplace skills development Based on analysis and interpretation of the research findings, recommendations to management, human resources department, EAP personnel and to union representatives were made on how to engage employees in workplace skills development planning and implementation. / Dissertation (MSocSci)--University of Pretoria, 2013. / Social Work and Criminology / unrestricted

A brief survey of the supply of and the demand for consumer credit in Canada discloses a dynamic situation. The increasing income of the Canadian population, among other factors, has brought about changing conditions in this market. One of the most significant changes may be the increased sensitivity of the consumer to finance rates and interest charges. This increase in consumer sensitivity to finance rates may explain the past changes in shares of the consumer credit market that are serviced by the various financial intermediaries. The most significant share of consumer credit market changes have been the gains by the chartered banks and credit unions and the loss experienced by the sales finance companies. This may represent a consumer borrower switch from a higher cost lender (the sales finance companies) to lower cost lenders (the chartered banks and credit unions). This switch may be explained by an increase in consumer sensitivity to finance rates. A model developed by F. Thomas Juster and Robert P. Shay, predicting increased consumer sensitivity to finance rates, is used to forecast future possible share of consumer credit market that may be serviced by sales finance companies. The results are a forecasted decline in the share of a particular segment of the consumer credit market that may be serviced by the sales finance companies. This forecast is the basis for a discussion of strategy and policy decisions that must be made by the management of sales finance companies. Some of the alternative strategies are explored. The conclusion reached is that the sales finance companies will have a difficult time forestalling a loss in share of the consumer credit market. Their most productive competition strategy may be to concentrate their resources in particular segments of the consumer credit market that are not immediately accessible to the lower cost lenders. Sales finance companies may also find that a strategy of diversification, within and without the consumer credit area, is productive. / Business, Sauder School of / Graduate

The diploma thesis named Marketing in Development focuses on the compilation of a marketing plan for a development project. This plan is based on the set of fundamental rules relating to development and the particular phases of a development process. A marketing survey is another important starting point and issue. The plan itself is aimed at developing a fictitious office project in Prague. It also contains some practical suggestions on how to apply some marketing tools in practice and, moreover, it points out their importance. The overall marketing plan might therefore be used as guidelines for making similar marketing plans for the development of office projects.
