Vending machines were a foreign concept few years back. We could only see them in Hollywood flicks or foreign channels or hear stories about these wonder machines from people visiting abroad. But with the globalization catching up at a fast pace and India turning into a developing nation from a below poverty line nation. The whole technological development scenario of the country is changing. The added contributory factor in technical development of our nation is the easy export and import policy. Moreover the literacy rate has also gone up. All these factors have contributed towards acknowledgment and acceptance of new products.

Vending machines are installed at very few places in India. We generally locate them on airports or a posh super market and at times at few corporate offices. However the trend is changing now and more and more business people and corporate houses find the necessity of installing a vending machine. The purchase of item will be easier. Less monitoring will be required. Things would be available conveniently and one does not have to queue for a bottle of water or coffee or munchies.

Vending business can prove to be a boon to Indian economy. But the product selection should be such that it suits the Indian scenario. They placement of the machines should also be taken care of. The more frequented places like railway stations, supermarkets like big bazaar, more etc, airports, bus stands and shopping malls should be targeted. The most important consideration would be the currency and the mode of buying. The products of the machine should vary according to the location. Like for example at places more visited by the common man, the products like water, snacks, tea, coffee, and news paper should be available and the cost should be low. Whereas in malls and other elite places the product range should be variable. There should be choice of items from food to jewellery to electronics item.

Vending machine is a very handy technological development and it is a must for our economy. We are trying to be at par with the international market and vending business is one more step towards progression of India.

Vending machines are machines used for buying snacks, beverages, newspapers, water, candy’s etc by inserting money or a token. These machines do not need a cashier to monitor the transaction.

Vending machines cam into use after industrial revolution. These machines were initially used for selling cigarettes but this trend has faded away because of heath awareness. The functionality gradually developed and they started being used for selling other products. But the surprising fact is that the first vending machine was actually invented in the 1st century.

Vending business is a very profitable business and the person owning the machine is bound to get an estimated 100% to 200% profit within a year. There are certain features of vending machine, like the machine accepts certain amount of cash, the product is counted etc. which make the transaction easier. The owners of the vending machine do not need to worry about the change. Each vending machine has its own fixed amount which is dependent on the product to be sold. The vendor needs to spend 20 to 30 hrs in a week and the remunerations for it are good.  This leaves enough time for him to work somewhere else as a part timer. However for the business to do well it is very essential to sell the products which are much in consumer demand. Secondly the location of vending machine is very important. The most profitable and sought after locations are airports, railway stations, super markets, shopping malls; café’s and other such locations which are frequently visited by people. They are very common in offices and schools too.

Vending business has expanded tremendously and there are user friendly technologies too getting introduced to popularize these machines. Nowadays coins and specified bills are not mandatory. Credit and debit cards too can be used to buy an item. With the popularity of the machines the product range has also expanded and it is essential to do so as these may draw the customer more and more and help expand one’s business.

Employees are the backbone of any company/organization. Keeping them contended is the key to success for the organization. If the employees are happy and satisfied with their position in the office, they will do their best for the profit of the concerned organization. Here are a few tips which can help you understand their satisfaction level and requirements to make them happy and get the best out of them for your business:

Try to be logical: You demand work from your employees but take care not to ask them for truly impossible. Don’t insist them to work in late hours daily and all weekend for something which is not urgently required. Don’t shout and force them to work in such a tiring and uncomfortable situation.

Keep your words: If you say something then let it happen whether it’s regarding bonus of employees, giving feedback on a project, liaising with another department. Do what you say you’re going to do, in whatever timeline you committed to. If you are responsible, then your employees will take your words seriously otherwise they will also be lazy.

Respect your employees: Your employees should be respected and their work should be valued. Do not underestimate and discourage them. You should act in such a way that your employee feels respected.

Care your staff: Companies must care about their people. If they don’t feel that the company cares about them, then why should they care about the company?

Ask a feedback: Seek a feedback from the employees about how the staffer thinks last week’s event went to what you could be doing to make her/his job easier. This will reflect their need and requirement. Value their feedback. Do not ignore them. Share their views with them.

Focus on results: Make sure that all the employees including you are focused on the central target of success of the company. Rules and regulation made should be logical and should be concerned to the success and goals of the organization. Do not try to make rules or policies to entertain your personal goals.

Talk to your employees: Have a talk to the employees to know their requirements in the job. Sort out their problems. Figure out their needs which can range from training and better equipment to the elimination of a counterproductive policy.

Face difficult situation and take solid decisions: In case the company get stuck in any conflict, do not avoid that situation. Have tough conversations, make decisions that may be unpopular, and enforce standards and consequences. Good employees will get frustrated and dislikes a manager’s passivity and avoidance of conflict. Just face it!

Speak honestly: Tell the employees about their performance honestly. Tell them the areas where they need more hard work and appreciate where they are doing pretty well. This will encourage them for further improvement and will energize them in a right direction.

Keep Probing: Be vigilant about the happenings in your surroundings and ask questions like:
Are your employees satisfied?
What are their needs at workplace?
How’s their workload?
What part of their job are they struggling with?
What improvement is needed at work?
What are the obstacles that are making their jobs more difficult?
What are their goals for their job and their longer-term future?
How should you help them?

You need to speak with them openly on certain issues. So don’t avoid these things and keep your employees happy and go ahead!

The cricket icon, Sachin Tendulakar who have been a brand ambassador of soft drinks major Pepsi since 90s, was dropped by the company. The decision came on the backdrop of Pepsi axing the other two members of the Indian batting troika - Rahul Dravid and Saurav Ganguly - earlier this year.

“The decision was also influenced in a big way by the premium amount demanded by the batting maestro,” the sources added.

The Pepsi contract with Sachin, who is earning Rs 3-4 crore from Pepsi every year through promotions and ads, was expired in May.

A company source said that he had not “got back” to a request to “lower his price” for renewing his contract, which expired around two months back.

Pepsi had made it clear its intention to go with youngsters as part of a new campaign for 2008, ‘Yeh hai Youngistaan Meri Jaan; and roped in Ishant Sharma and Rohit Sharma while dropping Dravid and Ganguly.

Other insiders said the Master Blaster had asked for a “huge” hike. “We went back to the drawing board to see if it made more sense to put money on young cricketers who fit into our Youngistan campaign than shell out a huge sum for someone like Sachin,” the source said.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) warned that India needs to tighten its monetary policy to maintain the economic stability amid surging fuel prices and souring inflation rate. The impact of the later is not so big but the need of the hour is to stress on monetary policies and plans to be able to feed their people properly.

IMF Managing Director Dominique Strauss-Kahn at the release of a new IMF study said, “If food prices rise further and oil prices stay the same, some governments will no longer be able to feed their people and at the same time maintain stability in their economies.”

The latest IMF study says that the effect of price hike is most acute for import-dependent poor and middle-income countries confronted by balance of payments problems, higher inflation and worsening poverty.

Kahn said, “Some countries are at a tipping point.” Kahn said such countries needed help from the international community for good policy options.  “Their challenge is ours. It is to ensure adequate food supplies while preserving the poverty-reducing benefits derived in recent years from faster growth, low inflation, and better budget and balance of payments positions,” he added.

Kalpana Kochhar, senior advisor in the Asia Pacific Department of the fund said, “India is a large country and it has USD 312 billions in reserves. The fact that you had a near doubling of oil prices over a period of year is going to impact the current account and you are seeing it.”

“You would not have seen Indian highlighted…. The impacts are big but not so big. There are positive inflows and the results are still large,” she added.

IMF study revealed that India is also struggling with the global problem of inflation and fuel price hike but the effect of these problems can be reduced by only changing the monetary policies and strong economic plans.
