Power communication strategies: Tool in Your Journey to Success


Mr. Smith has an important business meeting today. He has his meeting got fixed at 1 o’clock in the afternoon. Mr. Smith has already got late. By the lunchtime, he has to be on the venue. He is rushing past the way….! Mr. Smith is not worried about the meeting at all. His matter of concern is the person, whom he is going to visit. Mr. Brown is a very analytical kind of person. He always values accuracy and is quality-oriented man. With this thinker type personality, Mr. Smith has to be very careful on showing him the quality of his products and services. Mr. Brown love to ask why questions on each front, so, Mr. Smith needs to take many explanations. Nevertheless, he is not a raw player in the field. He knows how to handle these types of personalities. Therefore, he uses the words like safe; prove, guaranteed, economical, reliable, accurate, and efficient while dealing with them. Thus, Mr. Smith is going to win the race.

Unlike Mr. Smith, most of us do not know the power communication strategies and hence get themselves in to a trap. Actually, power communication strategy is a science of dealing with others in order to win over them. According to a psychological study, each of us is born with a different temperament and needs a different approach of communication. There are four types of temperament. The first analytical type we have discussed above.

With the second expressive style, you need to touch their emotional state of being as these individuals are weak in emotional management. They are friendly, playful, extrovert, sociable, impulsive, and enthusiastic. As they are talker by birth, don’t try to steal their privilege to talk. These love to put up who question. Keep this in mind while dealing.

Then here comes the people with passive temperament. You would love dealing with this personality, as they are patient, polite, uninvolved, friendly, and sympathetic. The only problem is they lack in self-esteem, so you need to guide them while communicating.

At last, in the journey of your sales and business to the successes, you might be facing the aggressive persons too. Be extra careful with them as they are result oriented and very much concerned on the value of achievement. A quick note on how you are going to communicate with the people, who are quick in decision-making, is you never threaten their need of control.

Equipped with your power communication strategy, now, you only need to distinguish these persons with their right temperament!!

E-procurement-an advanced form of online purchasing


Today, online purchasing is drawing the global market under a roof. Customers can shop their desired articles online, from their home itself. In order to make this all possible, there are two important factors which affect the whole procedure a lot. These factors are companies and the suppliers. The E-procurement system is proving an important link between these two.

E-procurement means, to grab right product or service at the right time, to the right place and at the right price. Because of this, a company can add value to their service or product and also can save money and valuable time. 

E-procurement, if properly implemented, could be a better platform where the companies and their business process get well connected with their suppliers. This includes all kinds of interactions like management of correspondence, bids, questions and answers and previous pricing and emails sent to multiple partners.

With the well managed E-procurement system, company could keep their most relevant business deals, to be more organized. And not only this, they also could be more focused to their lucrative suppliers. 

But, one should not think that an E-procurement system will start to give them back the benefits, since the moment it is implemented. At its first stage, companies have to spend on the staff training in order to maintain the system. Plus some profit could also be eaten up by the cost of purchasing the system. It could take one or two complete years to give you back with the profits.

Meanwhile, there is no doubt that an E-procurement system enables the companies to get connected with their crucial suppliers especially when it comes to launch a new product or new technology which needs the much attention of the suppliers.
