Ron may encounter customer concerns that must be addressed and handled in a positive light for the company to have continued success. There is a multitude of customer concerns; therefore, the objections will depend on the product and type of business (Johnston & Marshall, 2009). The potential sources of concern from customers that Rob may come upon includes, 1) product need, 2) trustworthiness of the salesperson, 3) reliability of the company, 4) timing, and 5) best price for the product (Johnston & Marshall, 2009). According to Jones (1998), “Customers are more receptive to salespeople who they perceive as credible; thus, salespeople should appear trustworthy and competent” (as cited in Arndt, Evans, Landry, Mady, & Pongpatipat, 2014, p.…

Undescribable Elie, ashamed and guilty, harshly brings thick unwanted soup to his dying father Staggering, suffocating, surrounded, solitary, squandered, starved I am in disbelief that anyone could be so strong to be strained, starved, yelled at, beaten, bruised, wounded, whipped, scarred, and tormented and walk out alive. Death is the devastating result for man’s need of the tiniest, stale crust of bread Afraid that his father was dead in his blanket, I sunk, praying it was not true They stand frozen with undeserving power, holding fear in the shape of a rifle. ‘Free at last’ (Weisel, 112)…
As we have been exploring the ideas of faith and Christianity in class, we were called to look deeper into the meaning of Christianity through various self-designated books. Francine Rivers’ story, The Shoe Box, is centered around a child by the name of Timmy O’Neil and the raggedy brown box he carries by his side at all times. Francine Rivers mentions before the start of the story how she formulated this book based directly on her own experiences. The overall purpose of this book was to convey the message that Jesus is always with us through whatever we may be going through. Therefore, the main thesis of this specific story was to essentially leave all one’s worries and problems up to the Lord, which Rivers translates through the character of Timmy O’Niel.…

The article by Tynan, Somers, Gleason, Markman, & Yoon (2015) investigates the role of external influential factors on the risky behaviours and goal-oriented habits of adolescents in 9th and 12th grades. The authors identify the various factors that influence adolescents’ behaviours including biological, peers, family and political factors. One of the variables considered for the study include parental monitoring; according to the authors, when parents are less involved in monitoring and observing the adolescents, there is a resulting increase in risky behaviours such as smoking, sexual engagement, drug use, and criminal activities. Parental involvement, another key factor, in the adolescents’ homework and extracurricular activities does not only improve the performance of such a child, but also decrease aggressive and poor behaviours such as smoking and drinking. Parental communication which entails parents discussing moral and sexual topics with the children will influence the adolescent development.…
