Respected Sir/Ma’am,
It is to inform you that the employees of the organization have decided to boycott their work after the incident that took place yesterday. The manager has misbehaved with one of our employees and that has created huge outrage among all the other employees here. The employees are in the opinion that the manager does not have the right to insult a person on the basis of his race or religion. The way the manager treated Ms Parks yesterday was very humiliating. A work place should be free from any kind of racial discrimination or such activities that hinders the basic rights of the employees. Keeping this situation into consideration, all the employees have planned to boycott their work unless serious actions are taken against this matter.
The employees have demanded that the manager has to apologise for his behaviour. In fact, the management should take serious action against this particular situation. The entire group of employees have determined that unless a proper solution is made by the authority of the organisation, they would not continue their respective works. They have claimed that the incident is really shameful that has created a disgraced situation in the working environment. If the manager can do such things with Ms Parks, the chances that similar incidents would ockie again in the office are very high. Therefore, it is only when the manager apologises and the higher authority takes serious action against charges of racial discrimination; the employees would not continue their work.
Thank you,
Yours truly,

The idea of launching this product is to give a different form of chocolate experience to the consumers. People usually have cheese with bread for their breakfast. There is option for chocolate spread as well. The love for chocolate spread cannot be denied. However, it becomes very messy at times while using chocolate spread for the bread. Therefore, the idea is to make it easier for the chocolate lovers to eat chocolates even if they are in hurry. All it needs to take is to peel out a chocolate slice and placed it between the breads and have it. This is a very nutritive and a healthy food for the children.

Topic: Rebranding the business, (Nike)
Why rebranding the business is important for Nike?
Rebranding is definitely a daunting task for an organization to undertake, but it is definitely a rewarding process that promises to deliver significant commercial benefits. Rebranding actually gives a new breathe and life to the brand if the brand seems to loss significant market share or consumers. The process of rebranding requires focusing on certain strategies and it has to have creative vision and thoughts towards rebranding the particular brand. It is not important that rebranding takes place only when the company suffers from major drawbacks but it is equally important that the company should consider certain activities that would help them to fight against the increasing competition in the market. If these brands do not consider these points, it would ultimately result in creating a situation that would create hindrance for the brand to get back to its original position in the market.
If the situation of Nike is considered, it has to be said that the company has been facing major drawbacks in the recent time because of the increasing competition in the market. There are many brands like Woodlands, Adidas, Reebok and others. Apart from this, many clothing companies have also been found to come up with product differentiation strategies that have resulted in developing those sports products. In addition to this, online purchasing has made it convenient for the consumers to compare the products before making any purchase. Therefore, the battle of competition continues. The only option left to the major brands is to increase its brand position to that extent that it would create better opportunities for them to attract more consumers. Selection of the right media or channel is also important to reach out the right group of consumers. Therefore, in order to re create a branding position or rebranding a company, selection of the right media should also be of primary concern. The advent of the social media sites has made it easier for the companies to reach out people throughout the globe.
The only option left for the brands to save their market share is to create a strong branding because there might be many options available in the market, but people are often found to be loyal to certain brands. Therefore, it has become very important for the brand like Nike to consider the point of rebranding. In order to rebrand or establish a dominant position in the market, there are certain points that need to be considered. For instance, the company can come up with a new set of marketing and promotional strategy. Product variation or coming up with certain unique designs could be the best possible options for Nike to increase the consumer base. It can also be said that the company could hire a new brand ambassador, a renowned and a well known personality who could easily create a charm in the market and would help to create a better brand image of the company.
