ed. The day widely regarded as the Super Bowl of online sales created a record day for retailers, including Walmart, and marked a shift in shopping preferences as smartphones and tablets drove nearly a third of traffic — and for some retailers, more than half.? W expects to register its biggest Cyber Monday yet, coming off a record Black Friday weekend online. Heading into the afternoon Monday, the website had already sold out of PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles, which weren't even discounted. Significant savings on TVs and tablets also encouraged shopping, says Joel Anderson, CEO of W. Retailers from Target to Sears are fast evolving Cyber Monday into something more akin to Cyber Week, as online deals stretch well beyond Monday. As of 6 p.m. ET, sales on Amazon were up 44.3% over last year, while sales at eBay were up 32.1%, according to Channel Advisor, which tracks third-party sellers on eBay and Amazon. The online marketplaces are doing well in part because shoppers are heading to those sites to find popular products that are selling out at regular retailers, says Scot Wingo, CEO of Channel Advisor. Flash-sale site Rue La La started Cyber Monday deals on Sunday with a “Cyberthon” that drew more than 350,000 people to the site. The sale promoted as much as 80% off on more than 150 brands. On Monday, sales of Cole Haan and Pandora Jewelry merchandise were strongest, CEO Steve Davis says.

s they took advantage of discounts offered on Singles Day (November 11). It is a festival for young single people to celebrate by eating together, sending gifts or going shopping, thus seized on by online retailers to increase sales. It took only 13 hours for sales on just two online sites, Taobao and Tmall, to fly past last year's overall total of 19.1 billion yuan (US$3.1 billion).The final figure of Singles Day reached an astonishing 35.02 billion yuan as hundreds of thousands of consumers rushed to buy clothes, furniture, and home decoration items at discount prices. What friends and colleagues greeted each other with that day was “Bought anything today?” as they exchanged tales of bargains or disappointing news of popular items sold out minutes after the spree began at midnight. In under nine hours, turnover at the Alibaba Group's Tmall and Taobao sites had exceeded that of last year's Cyber Monday, a similar event in the United States. “We hope other e-commerce sites also did a good job as we want Singles Day to be a holiday for consumers and a good chance for retailers to discover the unmet needs of shoppers,” Jack Ma, founder and chairman of Alibaba Group, told reporters. “It's not a difficult thing to bring our total transaction size to 100 billion yuan in a couple of years but we hope to do more to help vendors and manufacturers to upgrade their products and service to reach more clients,” Ma said at a news briefing.

etter able to work together and achieve team goals. They are also more satisfied with their team activities. John Wooden, a former basketball coach at UCLA, said, “Team spirit means you are willing to sacrifice personal considerations for the welfare of all. That defines a team player.” There are certain skills team members develop that serve as good examples of team spirit. COOPERATION Cooperating is simply working together as teammates for the good of the team. Cooperation is a skill that team members can sharpen during practice.

Staying motivated shows team spirit because it shows that you want the team to do well.

You can show respect to your teammates by treating everyone fairly and equally. Teammates also respect each other by allowing everyone to participate.

vely small. Each system in China has an average of 43 outlets, compared to more than 540 in the United States. Together, there are 2,600 brands in some 200,000 retail markets. KFC was the most significant foreign entry in 1987 and is widespread. Many franchises are in fact joint-ventures, as at their forming the franchise law was not explicit. For example, McDonald's is a joint venture. Pizza Hut, TGIF, Wal-mart, Starbucks followed a little later. But total franchising is only 3% of retail trade, which seeks foreign franchise growth. The year 2005 saw the birth of an updated franchise law, “Measures for the Administration of Commercial Franchise”. Previous legislation (1997) made no specific inclusion of foreign investors. Today the franchise law is much clearer by virtue of the 2007 law, a revision of the 2005 law.
