According to Dale Yoder, incentive wages relate earnings to productivity and may use premiums, bonuses or a variety of rates to reward for superior performance. The incentive programs involve an attraction of extra payment for efficiency. An efficient program must provide for minimum guaranteed wage based on hourly rate and extra remuneration for increased output. In other words, an incentive program contains the characteristics of time based and output based systems of wage payment.

Sound incentive program must be easily understood. It should be acceptable to the employees. It must benefit employees as well as employer. It should not be costly to operate. It should stimulate the interest among the workers. It should assist in supervision.

There are two types of incentive programs: Halsey premium bonus plan and Bedeaux point premium plan. In Halsey premium bonus plan, a minimum time wage is guaranteed. The time allowed for completing the job is set from the records of previous performance rather than by time and motion studies. The amount of time saved multiplied by the hourly rate forms the sum that is shared between the worker and the owners according to the ratio agreed upon equally. Because of this fixed proportion of sharing bonus, Hasley’s plan can be called a constant bonus-sharing plan. The standard length of time for doing a job, not being derived through the use of time and motion study is usually greater than would be the case under more scientifically measured procedure.

Under Bedeaux’s point premium plan, the standard time for each job is fixed after undertaking time and motion study. The workers who are not able to or just able to complete the program within standard time are paid at the normal time rate. Those who are able to complete their work earlier are paid bonus equal to the wages for time saved. Generally, the bonus paid to the worker is 75 per cent of the wages for time saved. The remaining 25 per cent goes to the foreman.

Apparently some International Terrorists have targeted our oil refining assets in the United States as potential targets. Perhaps is because they do not understand our great nation for what it is. Instead they see oil and wealth. This miss conception of what America is really about; Freedom and Liberty, has been perpetuated by radical Islamic power grabbing manipulators to incite terrorism. Unfortunately some sub-humans with extremely low I.Q.s have taken the bait.

I therefore propose that we assist these misguided individuals in their mission to meet their maker. They wish to die in a battle for Allah, so let us light up the Oil Refineries to more easily detect the intruders and then kill them dead. And let’s light up the Huge Refineries using alternative energy, just to prove we can, using the vibrational energy of the machinery and refinery itself. How so you ask?

By placing large 4′ X 8′ sandwich sheets with a taunt film on the vibrational side and small copper lined tubes; hundreds of these tubes running perpendicular to the sheets, with magnets inside bouncing back and forth. These magnets will charge a capacitor and be hooked up to an LED lighting system using fiber optics or reflectors, each one hooked up to a .2 to .5 watt light. With hundreds of thousands of lights hooked up in a composite format it will light up the refinery without the light pollution associated with streetlights, stadium lights or in large cities.

Currently this technology is being used in those little flashlights you see advertised on television that you shake and they light, but you never need batteries. This idea of lighting up the refineries and oil assets is using that technology on a larger scale with miniaturized parts making up the guts between the sandwich sheets. Let there be light, thru vibrational energy and there was. Think on it.

Surfing Safely in Starbucks…

A few months ago I met with a group of Internet professionals, all of us sporting laptops with wireless connections to the hotel’s access point. On the second day of the conference, one of the attendees put up a slide on the overhead showing logins and passwords from a dozen of the attendees. Needless to say, many jaws dropped open.

He was running a “sniffer” program that anyone can download to spy on the internet traffic floating around in the air. Fortunately, he was a trusted colleague, and was nice enough to tell us that we were caught with our virtual pants down.

Wifi Safety Tips

First, be aware that (almost) ANYTHING that you type or any info that appears on your screen while you’re using a wireless connection can be seen by others nearby. If you are accessing a page that requires a login and password, or if you are entering ANY personal data (credit card, SSN, etc) make sure that you are on a secure site. That’s easy enough — just check that the web address begins with https instead of the usual http — and your information will be safely encrypted before transmission. As long as you’re on a page with an address that begins with https, the data you send and receive is protected from sniffers and snoopers.

But be on your guard, some web-based email providers have a secure login page, but after you’re logged in the access reverts to normal non-encrypted mode. So any email you send or receive while on a wireless connection is out in the clear. Google’s GMail and Yahoo Mail are examples of webmail services that work this way. Until recently Hotmail didn’t even offer a secure login option. So look for the link or checkbox for the secure login when accessing your web-based email. If your service doesn’t offer one, consider switching or decide to live with the security exposure.

Oh, and there are the “shoulder surfers” to watch out for. Just like when you’re entering your PIN code at an ATM, you need to keep an eye open for anyone who might be glancing over your shoulder while you hunt and peck in the airport or coffeeshop. I always use two fingers when entering my pin or password… one presses the correct key and other is a decoy. So even if someone was watching from across the street with binoculars, it’s almost impossible to steal a password.

As more and more markets became buyer markets and the entrepreneurial problem became one of solving the shortage of customers rather than that of goods, the sales concept became the dominant idea guiding marketing. The sales concept maintains that a company cannot expect its products to get picked up automatically by customers. That’s where the role of sales incentive programs comes in. The company has to consciously push its products. Aggressive advertising, high-power personal selling, large scale sales promotion, heavy price discounts and strong publicity and public relations are the normal tools used by organizations that rely on this concept. In actual practice, these organizations do not enjoy the best customer patronage.

For sales incentive programs to be effective, it is very important to design sales territories. A sales territory is a geographical grouping of customers and prospects. Accordingly, designing sales territories in effect means the division of the total marketing area into a number of territories with the objective of servicing the territory effectively, economically and profitably. Two methods are commonly employed in designing sales territories: the equal workload method and the equal potential method.

Equal workload method aims at equalizing the workload of all salesmen. The territories are formulated so that they are equal in workload rather than in potential. The workload is considered in terms of the time required for the salesman to service all the accounts in his territory. On the other hand, equal potential method starts on the basis that the productivity of a salesman varies depending on the potential of the territory.

Proper designing of sales territories brings several benefits to the firm. It facilitates effective planning, as well as control of marketing operations since a properly designed sales territory is a more homogeneous area. Market data is more meaningful when collected and applied at the territory level. Moreover, when the total area is broken up into a number of well-designed territories, control of the marketing effort and evaluation of performance become easier.
