Add You - Gondola Shelving Demystified: Part 2 - The Units
If you're reading this, chances are there is one thing for sure: you have an interest in becoming a home based business entrepreneur. Maybe you're adventurous and are sick of the rat race that you're living and want to live the experience of owning your own business. Or perhaps, you eventually want to become self employed so you have more time and freedom. Whatever the reason, there's one main goal that always seems to be the do-or-die ingredient of a successful home business: to succeed and profit as a home based business entrepreneur and live the life of your dreams.Here are five tips that will help you in that quest:1) Pick your business venture carefully and research what type of compensation plan the business opportunity is offering. Whatever you decide on, it will be something you will be spending a lot of time, effort, and even money on. You certainly don't want to have all your energy and resource
Constructing the 12’ aisle run is slightly trickier. Obviously aisle units are going to be used, but do we purchase three 4’ sections or four 3’ sections in order to make the 12’ run? A good rule of thumb in this situation is to use the fewest number of units possible to make the length of shelvi
Most people hate going to meetings. They get tired of wasting time, off-the-topic discussions, and generally not accomplishing much. Each meeting participant bears a certain amount of responsibility in these situations, of course, but the majority of the blame falls squarely on the person charged with running, or facilitating, the meeting.A good chair knows how to make sure the meeting proceeds smoothly, makes the most of the time allowed, and that everyone who participates feels valued and heard.Common mistakes made by most people who run meetings Many people who run meetings have little training. They will make some common mistakes, such as:• Running the meeting in a dictatorial style • Giving his or her opinion first • Viewing themselves as "in charge" or "the boss" of the meeting • Ignoring quiet people or those who don't actively participate • Focus on the results the
For the purpose of this article, let’s assume we are following a layout that calls for a 7’ span of gondola units along one wall, and a 12’ run of gondola units right down the middle of the store. Right off the bat, we know that we’re going to be ordering both wall units and aisle units. “Wall units” are gondolas with one base shelf and a flat back. As the name implies they are almost always placed flush against a wall and are typically taller than their counterpart, the aisle unit. An “aisle unit” is basically two wall units built back to back which allows for the creation of aisles. A mixture of wall and aisle units is fairly commonplace, especially in high volume retail situations such as convenience and grocery stores.
Next, we need to decide how many units to buy in order to complete the 7’ and 12’ runs of gondolas required by our layout. Gondola units, be they wall or aisle, are commonly constructed in 3’ and 4’ lengths. Using a combination of these two sizes, you can make a run of gondola shelving in nearly any length. For the 7’ span of gondolas along the wall of our example store, we would order two wall units, one 3’ long and the other 4’ long, and combine them to make a 7’ length of gondola shelving.

Security has become an inevitable part of today's dynamic world. Here comes the role of security guards. A security guard, otherwise known as security officer, is of supreme importance in almost all such arenas as physical security of personnel, monitoring specialized events, and protecting invaluable properties by maintaining high visibility presence to detect illegal or inappropriate actions. In other words, security guards are usually employed by a company or an organization to monitor, patrol, preserve, and protect personnel as well as property, against theft, fire, terrorism, or vandalism. Security Guards' services and duties also cover safeguarding their employer's investment, detect criminal activity, and enforce laws on the property. At a glance, the motto of security guards is to ‘detect, deter, observe, and report.'Al though, duties and functions of security guards are same in general, their specific d

In all forms of business, and even hobbies, the people who have been involved in a particular activity for awhile will start to use different slang terms. When someone new comes along these slang terms can be very confusing. As all businesses depend on customers, you need to be careful and educate yourself on these terms so you don’t lose any sales.It recently came to my attention that online marketing has more than its share of slang for the newbie to learn. Since marketing is all about getting and keeping customers, I could see that seasoned online marketers may start have an image problem. Online marketing slang was pointed out to me by an associate who was interested in an Internet business I was marketing. While I was talking to him he asked for an explanation of what the heck I was talking about and said “Speak English Boy!”That conversation allowed the light to click on for me and I decided to

Every successful office manager knows that the office, furniture or equipment is not necessarily the key to prosperity in the workplace, but the people working with them are more important. That is why many office suppliers are now aiming to provide much more than a nicely furnished office space, they also aim to provide the necessary services to accommodate and maintain office space.Many companies now offer full service and affordable solutions for different businesses. In addition, they may provide space for executive offices with stunning views that are suitable for board meetings and client updates. Having an office located in a modern contemporary building with many hotels, restaurants and car rentals agencies in vicinity can turn out to be very convenient for clients, employees and co-workers.Indisputably, the internet has an increasingly greater effect on the way people around the world live, think

Interaction today comes in two ways: human-to- human and human-to-information. As a natural extension of the Information Age, the Interaction Age has come with messaging capabilities and real-time conferencing supplementing office productivity. Yet with all of this technology at our fingertips, it is easy to lose sight of what makes essential and productive communication between team leaders and employees. Of particular concern is the kind of communication that focuses on the upward communication that leads to productivity and high performance.Everyone Has the SkillsAt great companies team leaders actively listen to employees. They also actively encourage employees to talk to each other, customers and to their leaders. The good news is that most people already have the skills to communicate to their team leaders; they simply need to apply them to their manager. This is the power of human-to-human dialogue
Constructing the 12’ aisle run is slightly trickier. Obviously aisle units are going to be used, but do we purchase three 4’ sections or four 3’ sections in order to make the 12’ run? A good rule of thumb in this situation is to use the fewest number of units possible to make the length of shelving you need, as it’s ultimately easier on your budget. If we decide to use three 4’ sections, we not only save ourselves the cost of a fourth unit, but we’ll also save money when we’re buying the accessories that attach to the units.
One last thing needs to be considered when buying the actual gondola units, and that’s figuring out how many starters and add-ons are required to construct the run of shelving in question. So what’s a “starter” and what's an “add-on?” A starter is either a wall or an aisle unit that “starts” a run of shelving and consists of the base shelf (or shelves, in the case of an aisle unit) and two steel uprights that frame the backing. Starters are also structurally sound enough to stand on their own, however they also cost more due to the extra metal used to make the two uprights. This extra cost led to the creation of the add-on. An add-on is either a wall or an aisle unit that “adds-on” to a starter unit to create the desired length for your run of shelving. Unlike a starter, an add-on only has one upright. In order to remain standing, an add-on is attached to a starter and “borrows” one of its uprights in order to maintain its structural integrity (a diagram of this can be found here. Since there’s less metal involved, add-ons cost significantly less than starters, which contributes to the excellent value that gondola systems are known for.
When creating a run of gondola shelving you will only use one starter per row, which means our 12’ run of aisle gondolas will be made up of one 4’ starter and two 4’ add-ons. In the case of our 7’ length of wall units, you might assume
