Warehouse Management - June, 2009 - $495.00
The Warehouse or Distribution Centre is as critical, if not more so, as
any other department in an organisation. Its contents alone can account
for as much as 90% of the total operating capital of the company.
Traditionally regarded as a place of temporary convenience,
incurring costs and generating no returns, the course focuses on modern
management techniques to views this differently. Today, the store is
considered the most critical cost and revenue-generating centre with
the quality of its service having a direct influence on the overall
efficiency of the organisation. It is therefore important to ensure
that this department is always functioning efficiently and effectively.

Channels of Distribution - June 2009 - $495.00
Channel decisions are among the most critical decisions facing
management. The company's chosen channels intimately affect other
marketing decisions. The company's pricing depends on whether it uses
mass merchandisers or high-quality boutiques. The firm's sales force
and advertising decisions depend on how much training and motivation
the channel partner requires. In addition, the company's channel
decisions involve relatively long-term commitments to other firms. When
an automobile manufacturer signs up independent dealers sell its
automobiles, the manufacturer cannot buy them out the next day and
replace them with company-owned outlets.
Thus, there is a powerful initial tendency in channel
arrangements. Therefore management must choose channels with an eye on
tomorrow's likely selling environment as well as today's. This is an
important area in Supply Chain Management as it determines the level of
integration within the logistics pipeline.
