a business's corporate AIM is a long term vision that the business aims to or hopes to achieve in the long term...it sums up the various OBJECTIVES that the business sets, in a way. example: a corporate aim could be as vague as "being the best Internet Service Provider in town"....its plain to see that this is a very, very long term plan.
On the other hand, a Corporate OBJECTIVE is a target, a goal, set for the immediate future. A business can have many departments, and each department has its own objectives, and each individual in each department will then have his own objectives. And so all these objectives put together, work towards the common CORPORATE oBJECTIVE....a corporate objective is not vague. it cannot be vague. it is what ddetemines the course of action. it gives the how when where what....so it is descriptive. eg : "business's corporate objective is to increase sales by atleast 20% this year and to open up an outlet in city XYZ"

there u go, hope that helps :)

I'm Good. P1 is 5 short answers and 1 Essay.
Short answers are mainly your knowledge and examples.
For Essay, you can find alot of tips in SF. Examples are very good in essay. Ask people(professionals. egs teachers, students etc) if they think your writing language was good. Quoting can also give put you on the good side of the examiner.

I'm not an expert but all i can give you is tips that you should follow. :)
If you follow all these tips without delay you will definitely get what you expect,InshaAllah

Good day

In 2008 ASDA announced plans to build 1 billion pounds worth online business. It now sells foods, fashion and furniture online through its direct catalogue. Which of the following marketing mix refers to the decision?
 a) promotion b)price c) place d) product
 according to my teacher 'place' is the answer. Is this the correct answer ? Can someone explain me why?

Hello
sorry for the late reply. I dont usually come here often. :D
Ok....so they decided on how to sell their product.....in a way they had an option whether to choose opening a store or online retailing. so they chose online retailing.....therefore they decided on their place!
It is definitely not price. Promotion could have been if they said something like....they used sites to advertise their business.....its not really product because....they wheree deciding how to sell their product not what to sell!

Ok so I hope i make sense at all.Tell me if u get it.
:D
