Book Description

The Internet is the world's largest marketplace and provides businesses with the ability to interact with their market in a much more direct and tailored way than ever before. Customer.Community takes a new look at online communities as a source of value for both customers and businesses; it shows how to build an online "customer community" that gives customers a reason to stay loyal. Drew Banks and Kim Daus explain exactly what the customer community is and then reveal the tenets that will make it strong: sustainability, size and scalability, social connectivity, and soul. The authors show how to "communitize" commerce, build a solid base of repeat customers, and create value for the customer, and they explain how to manage a site in a cost-effective way. Customer.Community will help cultivate a mind-set to leverage the collective, untapped power of your customer base.

The Online community & commerce relationship.......2002-05-10

There is a growing body of knowledge on how an ebusiness (or any business online) can be a success (profit wise) on the Internet.
More and more successfull ebusinesses are taking advantage of the relationship between community & commerce. This book describes the relationship and why there are real strong business benefits to be obtained for designing community around any commercial website.
The are a number of benefits for combining community & commerce together. The authors point out increased customer loyalty, lower operational (support) expenses and an increase in direct revenue.
The authors provide examples of websites designed that take advantage of the relationship of community & commerce: ... A two page chart of all customer community pioneers is provided which ranks each site according to the 12 principles of successful community building. These 12 principles are:

1. have a clear purpose for the virtual community (vc)
2. Allow members to be able to identify each other
3. Allow for reputation to arise in the vc
4. Create a system of governance in the vc
5. Allow for communication between members
6. Allow for groups to form in the vc (smaller vc's)
7. Create an environment for members to talk
8. Create boundaries for the vc
9. Create a system of trust
10. Allow for exchange of knowledge & experience
11. Allow community to have character
12. Allow vc to have history.

In the book community is not seen as isolated from commerce rather as an integrated part towards providing increased knowledge for customers and increased revenue for an online business - in other words customers and the business collectively benefit.

The authors also draw on research from ... which supports the relationship of community & commerce online.

All you ever wanted to know about online community.......2002-04-11

This book is a great resource on why and how businesses should use online community.

The authors outline the twelve principles for building community which provide a terrific foundation to understanding how people interact. The book includes many examples of best practices from companies across a variety of industries, from cosmetics to software.

Anyone needing to justify how an online community contributes to the bottom line will love Chapter 7. The authors include a full page chart on pg. 169 that breaks out how a community can contribute to customer loyalty, revenue, and lowering operational expenses.

Book Description

The rapid pace of change in the banking industry is impacting the manner in which community banks conduct their business. The community bank, long a tradition in banking, is faced with several obstacles it must address head-on in order to survive. The Community Bank Survival Guide calls upon community banks to abandon ``tradition'' and look to the future--now--to impact the way each institution conducts its business--from the procedures and policies in place to the equipment in used by the employees. This book describes techniques for survival and devotes coverage to the importance of developing leadership in the community bank and in the surrounding community. Changing the culture to one that is more sales and marketing driven--perhaps the most important change necessary for survival--is covered in great detail. The Community Bank Survival Guide includes strategies for: Designing tactics and techniques for increasing asset base and profitability; Highlighting community involvement as key to an institution's mission; Addressing the imperatives of change; Evolving the culture of an institution's staff to one that is more market savvy; Disclosing and communicating director liabilities and responsibilities.

Remain Independent !.......2000-07-11

This book is an excellent resource for community financial institutions who desire to remain independent. The rules Dr. Austin has developed are insightful and obviously a result of years of working directly with community banks.

Book Description

Prominent industrialist Stephan Schmidheiny, coauthor of the influential book, Changing Course: A Global Business Perspective on Development and the Environment, joins Argentinean business leader Federico J. L. Zorraquín and the other 123 members of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development in taking a close look at whether the workings of financial markets (stocks, bonds, banks, and insurance companies) do, or should, support sustainable development.

Largely descriptive rather than prescriptive, Financing Change is the first study to examine questions that will become increasingly important as populations burgeon and the developing countries enter financial markets. It examines these issues in separate chapters covering the viewpoints of the financial market participants: company directors, investors and analysts, bankers, insurers, accountants, and raters.

A very nice first study !.......2001-01-16

This work asks the question if the world's financial markets and those who work in and around them are a force for sustainable human progress, or if they are against it. Related to this question two more further, fundamental questions are asked : Do the financial markets encourage a short-termist,profits-only mentality that ignores much human and environmental reality ? Or are they simply tools that reflect human concerns, and so will eventually reflect disquiet over poverty and the degradation of nature by rewarding companies that treat people and the environment in a responsible manner ?

In an attempt to find answers, the authors examined both the working of financial markets (established and emerging) and the roles of different key players in the financial community.

The findings are mixed but overall encouraging. For each player the present situation is explained in detail, showing clearly the limitations, the potential risks and potentials each player has related to creating sustainable development.

Overall a difficult topic in which the authors did very well to give a detailed present situation. Highly recommended as a first but good introduction to this topic.

Contents : I The Game 1. Eco-efficiency and the Financial Markets 2. Financial Markets and the Development Process II The Players (includes recommendations for each player) 3. The Company Leaders 4. The Investors and Analysts 5. The Bankers 6. The Insurers 7. The Accountants 8. The Raters III The Scorecard Appendix : Statement by Banks on the Environment and Sustainable Development

To tell the truth.......2005-10-27

There may be some truth in the statements contained in the book, at a time when HIV/AIDS was becoming a well known disease more than just the Red Cross was testing and supplying blood to hospitals, there are many blood banks that do the same thing as the Red Cross but they do it for a profit. However, it sells books to just state the Red Cross was the only one responsible for HIV/AIDS. The Red Cross does not make money on their blood supply. They charge hospitals for processing fees only to recoup the cost of the manufacturing, testing, processing, etc. of the blood it collects. It is the hospitals that are permited to collect the money, charge patients and insurances. Before criticizing the Red Cross, do some research yourself. FDA standards are met and exceeded for blood testing by the ARC.

Review from a Victim.......2005-01-12

I am the grandson of Robert Duane Jones. My grandfather received blood tainted with HIV and Hepatitis in the winter of 1989 from the bloodbank in Portland Oregon. He struggled on for more than a decade with this terrible disease, finally to succomb to it in January of 2002.

Grandpa made national headlines when he and my grandmother sued the Portland Division of the Red Cross in the nineties, which helped to bring about many of the changes that we see today. It was not that the Red Cross is a bad organization, it is that the Red Cross was never before held responsible or accountable for any of it's actions. This book helps to show, like any other book of its nature, the truth about an organization. I still continue to donate blood, and I donate to the Red Cross. The organization does great things around the world, but this book helps us to realize that all things may not be what they appear. Anyone interested in the history of HIV and transfusions should definately read this book, but like anything, you have too look at the whole picture and realize that no organization is without faults.

Awsome!.......2003-12-31

A young man wanted to donate blood to a Palo Alto Blood Bank but they rejected him for having a super low t-cell count. His blood was later accepted by a Red Cross facility and his bad blood caused a recipient to get AIDs.
This book is filled with similar horror stories as well as details about this one. The American Red Cross cut corners every chance possible and then fought like pitt balls to avoid taking any responsibility.
The Ford Pinto and Dalkon Shield two famous product liability cases left a black mark on corporate America but the irresponsibilty of The American Red Cross is a black mark against the cross and what it stands for.
A corporation that specializes in blood and relies on people's donations and uses the cross to engender peoples trust owes more then any car or iud maker.
They owe nothing short of their blood because the Christian cross symbolizes Christ's blood on the cross.
They sinned against God. The American Red Cross has been immortalized as one of the most greedy and ruthless corporations to ever exist!

Finally The Truth About Blood Transfusions!.......2003-12-01

This book tells the honest truth about blood transfusions that so many people overlook when they critcize someone for not taking one. The Blood industry is a multi-billion dollar industry and yes the Red Cross profitted incredibly! That is why it has wrongly educated doctors that people need blood transfusions. There are so many ways to use the skills physicians have to prevent and treat blood loss instead of blood transfusions but instead it is the easy way out. This book shows how many times blood is given when it is completely unnecessary. It shows the real dangers of blood transfusions and how many many people are suffering because of agreeing to receive blood. It's incredible how many diseases can be acquired through blood transfusions, even today. If anyone thinks that blood transfusions are safe today, they need to think again and read this book!

overlooked.......2003-10-20

The author of this book states her opion of the red cross and seems to find the people of wich were infected by hiv and aids and tell their stories but, did she forget the hundred of thousands this instituition helps every day with the blood porducts they collect. I wonder if she her self has ever donated blood.Lets not forget that the red cross is monitored very closly by both the CDC and the FDA. I encorage people to rent the movie "And the band played on" it explains alot about the aids epademic. and remember when you point a finger at someone(the red cross) you have 4 pointing back at youself.
