Tearing Down Walls: How Walton Rose To The Top
| |
| Sam Walton passed away in 1992 but his legacy lives on. It is estimated that if the Wal-Mart chain was its own economy, it would rank 30th in the world, behind Saudi Arabia. The company’s revenues continue to grow at roughly 10% a year, likely surpassing half a trillion dollars in sales within the next decade. The international division of Wal-Mart is also its fastest-growing division, which indicates that the company is continuing to increase its presence around the world. If Sam Walton were alive today, he would be the richest person in the world, with twice the fortune of Bill Gates. How did a farm boy from Oklahoma accomplish all of this? |

The Up-Comers - The 3rd Billion Will Influence All the Rest
| |
|
The financial community and the industry love to talk about big numbers like a billion. Especially when they're talking about people who are standing in line to spend money. For years we've classified BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India, China) as the growing billion everyone had to begin targeting their products/services to so they could grow profitably. But suddenly that billion look like they are buying the PC/CE/communications products/services as rapidly as they can afford (ok so that doesn't say much right now). So we need to seek out our next prospective market.
In a number of countries they have literally been right under our nose...yes women who have previously been viewed as "second class" citizens are asserting themselves and taking their lives, their future in their own hands. |

American franchises have an enviable rate of success compared to other American businesses.
