300 to 400 words on the following

The Web site Amazon.com once aimed to be the world’s largest bookseller. Now the company offers a wide range of products and services to consumers, operating online retail storefronts for partners and developing and selling its own manufactured products (such as Kindle).

Can a company like Amazon.com have a strong business model but a weak strategy? Using the Internet, find Amazon’s most recent annual report and peruse its main sections.

Based on your analysis of the report, respond to the following:

  • How has the company’s strategy changed from the original generic strategy that was applied? 
  • How would you describe the central elements of Amazon’s strategy?
  • In your opinion, what elements are involved in implementing the following business strategies?
    • A low-cost provider strategy
    • Differentiation
    • Diversification
    • Market timing

Write your initial response in approximately 300 words. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

Business assignment

Assignment 1: To Build or Buy

Select a small business that you visit often (e.g., coffee shop, bookstore, sporting goods store, etc.). Write a 6-8 page paper in which you:

  1. Craft a brief (1-2 pages) strategy for a business concept that would directly compete with the small business you selected. Explain the rationale for the strategy in detail.
  2. Determine if it would make more sense to open the new business you describe or to purchase the existing business you selected. Explain your reasoning.
  3. Discuss the most appropriate form of ownership for your new business (assuming your current financial situation).
  4. Outline a business plan for your business. Visit http://www.sba.gov for tools and templates.
  5. Include at least two (2) references outside the textbook.

 

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

 

  • Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
  • Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.

  • So, we have discussed/practiced brainstorming and narrowing our topics for our informative presentations (by reading/studying Chapters 11 & 12). Now let’s combine these skills with research skills! Below you will identify your chosen presentation topic and demonstrate that your topic is well narrowed, can be well sourced, and that you are well informed, committed and passionate about the topic!

 

Post the following items to this assignment:

  • Identify your narrowed topic

  • Write a specific purpose statement

  • Write a working thesis statement

  • Provide 5 potential sources (scholarly, peer reviewed, pertinent) for your presentation

**Keep in mind you want to choose a topic that you care about/are connected to and one that you can make relevant to your audience (our class). If you are not sure how your classmates will respond to a particular topic or what they know about a topic, then ask us using the provided discussion forum. In the past I have had students share presentations that do not relate to our audience and this essentially wastes the time of the class and makes the time the student put into his/her presentation seem irrelevant. For example, one student gave a persuasive presentation on why the audience need to buy a cell phone; at the end of the presentation, I asked the class, “who has a cell phone?” Everyone in the class raised their hand; the presentation did not target the audience. If the student had engaged in a bit of audience analysis then she would have known that she needed to persuade the audience to take some other action (like purchase a certain type of cell phone, or cell provider, or certain app, etc.). So, beware that your presentation does.
