<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Bargaining-Effectively" rel="lightbox[pics287]" href="http://www.jojojoson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Bargaining-Effectively.jpg"><img class="attachment wp-att-290 centered" src="http://www.jojojoson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Bargaining-Effectively.jpg" alt="Bargaining-Effectively" width="375" height="500" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Bargaining or negotiating a deal is an art. All of us have gone through this process in various stages of life, what matters is we got successful or not?</p>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">Why should I bargain?</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There are many people who thinks bargaining is a cheap tactic, so they pay what ever the retailer says or an MRP, without uttering a word asking discount. In contrast to this there are many others who bargain as if to get a product for peanuts, who bargains again and again. Now if it&#8217;s me I will always ask for a discount in a friendly manner, sometimes I will bargain to get a fair deal (a win-win for both) and there are instances I have bargained like a fool and ended up unsuccessful in making that deal. Bargaining aims to save money from our pockets. If you are purchasing an item of MRP 1000 rupees and if you can bargain to get the same for 900, you save 100 rupees, enough cash for a nice dine out. If you are not bargaining you are going to loose this 100 bucks for nothing.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">How to bargain and get a fair deal ?</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This is a competitive world and there&#8217;s fierce competition out in every sector. Purchasing/Shopping is also an art like bargaining. First thing is knowing where to purchase an item at the most reasonable price. Lets go through an example, I want to buy a Sony Vaio notebook, CR 36. Lets say its MRP is Rs.54,370. Now if you have plenty of cash and dont want a bargain, just buy it and remember this article is not for you. Okay! so I want a discount and first thing is understanding how much reduction you want. This is a difficult task as we would like to get anything for peanuts! If we know what&#8217;s the profit margin of the reatiler we can assume a possible figure. Profit margin of the merchant depends on various factors like competition,fast moving or not, wholesaler or retailer,his sales volume etc.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">How to know profit margin?</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As I said it varies with products. For example: A furniture retailer may be selling his item at 30 to 40 percent margin(becuase of low sales volume, slow moving,high demand and less supply of quality items etc), where as an electronics goods retailer may be selling his products for 10 to 20 percent margin. In any case a basic profit margin is 10 percent. No retailer is going to sell an item for a margin less than 10% unless he is a wholesaler or a supplier who depends on large sales volume and lesser profit margins. An average or a common purchaser is unlikely to purchase from wholesalers. This makes it clear that if you are buying from a retailer you can be sure that he gets a minimum percentage of 10 as profit. Now there are exceptions for branded items, fast moving items etc etc. Lets just take this as a general rule.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Note:</strong></span> You can search over the web to get a good idea of the product, its price ranges, wholesale price, where to get maximum discount, fair deal etc.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Now I am going to buy a Sony Vaio and as per our guess my retailer say shop X makes a profit of 5437 rupees. Now this may not be his actual profit, he may need to deduce operating expenses,transportation costs etc from Rs.5437. Lets not think about that, but we are clear that we cant ask for a reduction more than Rs.5437. No retailer/businees person will ever make deal in loss. He may sometimes sell a deadstock at his cost price but never sell  any thing for loss. Now we got an idea and lets make a fair deal.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">Fair deal !</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Now we cant ask for a Rs.5437 discount, well we can ask but it may not work out! As a fair deal lets ask for Rs.2370 as a discout and lets pay Rs.52,000 for the product. Chances are that you will make this deal if talked in a nice manner to a reasonable sales manager, applying a little pressure tactics. Rs.2370 is about 4.35% of MRP which means the reatiler still gets around 5%, deducting other expenses. In this way if you have an idea of the market rates you can easily get nice deals.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">What if the retailer is not willing?</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Here comes the real game! &#8211; The Art of Bargaining! We offered him a deal and he&#8217;s not willing for that, now what? Like Godfather says &#8220;<em><strong>Lets make him an offer that he can&#8217;t refuse</strong></em>&#8220;. Bargaining will not be that effective and produce desired output unless applied pressure on the reatiler. How to apply this? It depends on the purchaser, his attitude, knowledge of market rates, his communication skills etc.</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><strong>First Round:</strong> If you are confident of the market rates and profit margin &#8211; first thing you can do is to make him aware of that. A good way for doing this is, if you know name of a wholesaler who supplies the same or know the shops which are best in the market offering best deals, say your retailer &#8220;I know where to get this for the said price. I can get this from shop Y and Z, but I would like to do business with you since you are near to me and I have heard feedbacks that you offer better customer service. Many of my friends have purchased from your shop before,so if you can accept my offer lets do business now&#8221;</li>
<li><strong>Second Round:</strong> If hes still not willing, lets make another offer. &#8220;If you can get me this for my price I shall purchase one more item from you, say a bluetooth headset&#8221; or something like &#8220;If you can get me this deal, I shall refer you another business. One of my friend is awaiting to buy a notebook so you will get 2 customers &#8220;</li>
<li><strong>Third Round:</strong> You are likely to close the deal in second round, if not lets try this. Lets reduce that discount price a bit say Rs.500 and add a product as free instead, say a pen drive worth Rs.350. If not for this, 90% we can close the deal for reducing the discount price by Rs.1000 and add a prodct as free worth Rs.700 or 800. Idea behind this is a reatiler always benefits by giving free products rather than cash discounts.</li>
<li><strong>Fourth Round:</strong> Even after three rounds if we failed to make a deal, we need to rethink. If we are confident of the discount price we asked and if we are sure its a fair deal, a win-win, we dont need to step back any further. Lets try saying &#8220;Well if that&#8217;s the case, I am quiting your shop. I know I can get this deal from shop Y, I have talked with their sales manager. Only reason I came here is because of a referance, no big deal.I think shop Y is lucky, they are gonna get 2 people. I also have plans to buy a home theatre system, which I hope, shop Y will get me a nice  deal.&#8221;  Now with this, if he want to sell his product he will make deal else forget him, he is not a reasonable sales manager.</li>
</ul>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">Bargaining power ?</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Its something that we achieve by making good realationships with a retailer. Our bargaining power is the least when we are making our first purchase(a single product) from a shop. Bargaining ability increases when we become a repeated customer of the shop. If we are buying 2 or 3 products at a time from a single shop we can apply more pressure on the sales manager, than if we purchase a single item. Similarly we get more negotiating power when we refer more business to the same shop and in addition we get a respect and qaulity service from him. He will prioritize us and offer us his best deals. So to get a good enough negotiating power we need to follow a simple method &#8211; for a particlular set of products deal with a single shop/retailer(select one from reference and experience &#8211; who offers nice deal &#8211; a reasonable shop)  and establish a longterm relationship. Always make win-win offers and get the deal.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Do you want to retrieve your wordpress administrator E-mail?</strong></h2>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="wordpress-hacks" rel="lightbox[pics281]" href="http://www.jojojoson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/wordpress-hacks.jpg"><img class="attachment wp-att-282 centered" src="http://www.jojojoson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/wordpress-hacks.jpg" alt="wordpress-hacks" width="500" height="400" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Are you a guy who owns many wordpress blogs with different usernames,passwords and email for all (or many?). Chances are there you will forget your Username,Password and Administrator E-mail for some of your not so important blogs! Someday when you want to login to one of those blogs,you will find helpless without being able to login or even retrieve your lost password bcz you forgot all required stuffs!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Now you can fix this problem by getting into your Database and manipulating Users table. Its time consuming and guys with little knowledge on MySql will find it too difficult. Also its not a safe bet if you are not sure of what you are doing. So here&#8217;s a simple fix.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>You can retrieve your admin email if you know the following.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em><strong>1. You must have an FTP access to the blog.<br />
2. You must know name of any one plugin which is already active in the blog.<br />
</strong></em><strong><br />
</strong></p>
<h3><strong>Process:</strong></h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">1. Login to your websites files via FTP. You can always access and change FTP username and password from your Hosting control panel.<br />
2. Goto wp-contents/plugins directory.<br />
3. Find Folder/File of an already active plugin.If you are not sure of any, <strong>chances are that &#8220;Akismet&#8221; plugin may be active. </strong>Sometimes &#8220;Hello Dolly&#8221; may also be active.<br />
4. Now we have to edit that particular plugin.</p>
<p>Open the chosen plugin in EDIT mode. (You can also download the plugin to your computer,Edit it in Notepad and upload back)</p>
<p>In our example we are using the &#8220;<strong>Akismet&#8221;</strong> plugin.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>NOTE:</strong></span> Backup the entire plugin by downloading it to your computer before EDITING it.</p>
<p>We are not going to EDIT the whole plugin, we want to retain the plugin name. So be sure to read below carefully.</p>
<p>First few lines of all wordpress plugins are general information about it. We need to retain that info here. So if you are editing Akismet, you have to keep the following untouched.</p>
<p><em>&lt;?php<br />
/*<br />
Plugin Name: Akismet<br />
Plugin URI: http://akismet.com/<br />
Description: Akismet checks your comments against the Akismet web service to see if they look like spam or not. You need a &lt;a href=&#8221;http://wordpress.com/api-keys/&#8221;&gt;WordPress.com API key&lt;/a&gt; to use it. You can review the spam it catches under &#8220;Comments.&#8221; To show off your Akismet stats just put &lt;code&gt;&amp;lt;?php akismet_counter(); ?&gt;&lt;/code&gt; in your template. See also: &lt;a href=&#8221;http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/stats/&#8221;&gt;WP Stats plugin&lt;/a&gt;.<br />
Version: 2.1.6<br />
Author: Matt Mullenweg<br />
Author URI: http://photomatt.net/<br />
*/<br />
</em></p>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Note:</strong></span> You just keep lines upto a */ part of the plugin code you are editing.</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">5. Now delete all codes below */</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>6. Paste the following code below */</strong></span></p>
<p><em><strong>function email_retr()<br />
{<br />
$to=&#8221;someone@example.com&#8221;;<br />
$subject=&#8221;Admin Email Retrieved&#8221;;<br />
$admin_email = get_option(&#8217;admin_email&#8217;);<br />
mail($to,$subject,$admin_email);<br />
}<br />
function email_call()<br />
{<br />
return email_retr();<br />
}<br />
add_action(&#8217;login_head&#8217;,'email_call&#8217;);</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>?&gt;</strong></em></p>
<p>7. In the above code, you must have noticed line 3. Its <strong>$to=&#8221;someone@example.com&#8221;; <span style="color: #ff0000;">Replace the someone@example.com with your email address.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong>Ex: if your email address is sam@gmail.com It must be like this</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong> $to=&#8221;sam@gmail.com&#8221;;</strong></p>
<p>8. Ok! We are done now. Now SAVE the file. (If you downloaded it, EDIT,SAVE and Upload back to Plugins directory with same filenames/folder names).</p>
<p>9. Now Just load the the following URL in your browser.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>http://www.yourblogdomainname.com/wp-login.php</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong><br />
Note:</strong></span> <strong>You should replace the <span style="color: #0000ff;">yourblogdomainname.com</span> with your wordpress blogs domain name address.</strong></p>
<p>Okay! Now you may check your E-mail account and you must see a mail with subject Admin Email Retrieved! Open that and you will see your wordpress blogs Administrator Email address.</p>
<p>Now you can RESET your password, log in as Admin. Dont forget RESTORE the Original Plugin (upload back the copy of plugin we have backed up!).</p>
<p><strong>Any doubts? Comment below!</strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>Also READ the following:</strong></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2 style="text-align: justify;">Wanna take a look @ the IPL Economics ?</h2>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="IPL" rel="lightbox[pics268]" href="http://www.jojojoson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/ipl.jpg"><img class="attachment wp-att-270 centered" src="http://www.jojojoson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/ipl.jpg" alt="IPL" width="400" height="313" /></a></p>
</h2>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A fortnight is too short a time to judge the success of a concept, especially when it is something as revolutionary as the Indian Premier League (IPL). Yet, those behind the IPL, including the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), may have enough reason to smile as the third season of the tournament is set to have a successful grand finale. However, there is little doubt that the recent controversies surrounding IPL chairman Mr Lalit Modi has affected the brand value and credibility of this business entity to some Extend.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">In this article I will not be discussing about any kind of controversies, but I am going to bring the entire monetary policy of IPL. Before i start anything let me take back to the Indian History . The British East India company ruled India over 100 years .The policy so called “ <strong>Divide and rule </strong>“ made things easy for the British .Today after 63 years of our independence , the god father of Indian cricket (BCCI) has applied the same divide &amp;rule policy. They divided the India into cities and appointed Mr Lalit Modi as the viceroy.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">The cities were put on to an auction table and well know Indian conglomerates bagged those deals . The new owners of Indian cricket were neither the old princess nor the bureaucrats, who forced into sports. They are serious business men who running efficient business all over the world. The table below contains the auction price of each cities and the owner.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="IPL_table" rel="lightbox[pics268]" href="http://www.jojojoson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/IPL_table.jpg"><img class="attachment wp-att-276 centered" src="http://www.jojojoson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/IPL_table.jpg" alt="IPL_table" width="489" height="166" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">IPL had $2.3b dollar revenue before a ball was bowled! .1.6 billion from television- rights ,which  had been sold for 10 years. The remaining 0.7 billion was from the money in which all the franchises putting in.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">Ticket sale :</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Our population, for a long time we though as a biggest problem. Today eventually it became our great asset. The more people watch ,more the profit for IPL and each franchises . If the crowds that have thronged the stadiums at every single venue ,then the IPL may have caught the imagination of the masses. The entire concept of IPL is based on the assumption that the public will take a fancy to supporting league teams, as opposed to national teams, and come out in large numbers to watch their favourite stars play, whatever their nationality.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">Sponsorship:</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The title sponsorship fee of Rs 40 crore per annum for the next five years to be paid by DLF will be shared with the franchises. IPL will retain 40 per cent of this with the balance 60 per cent to be shared between the franchisees equally. While these revenues accrue from the central pool to the franchisees, they will generate team sponsorship at individual levels. For instance, Nokia is the team sponsor for Kolkata Knight Riders while Aircel sponsors Chennai Super Kings and Fly Emirates Sponsor Kings X1 Punjab. This revenue will remain wholly with the franchisees. Some teams such as Mumbai Indians have multiple sponsors in MasterCard and Idea all of which are endorsed on team jerseys.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Now lets take a look at how money has been flowing in and out for last few years in the IPL .</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="The IPL Revenue Flow" rel="lightbox[pics268]" href="http://www.jojojoson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/The-IPL-revenue-flow-2010.png"><img class="attachment wp-att-269 centered" src="http://www.jojojoson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/The-IPL-revenue-flow-2010.png" alt="The IPL Revenue Flow" width="640" height="331" /></a></p>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #3366ff;">Profitable?</span></h2>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The critical question is:</strong> Will the franchises break even in the first year itself? The answer could differ across franchises, as the sponsorship models that they have assumed are different. While some of them have gone for straightforward team sponsorship, others have taken sponsors on board as partners. For example Teams like RCB will not make any money from sponsorship as their main sponsors are Kingfisher because the Owners equity belongs to the same person, as both entities are under UB group.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="ipl-stat" rel="lightbox[pics268]" href="http://www.jojojoson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/ipl-stat.jpg"><img class="attachment wp-att-275 centered" src="http://www.jojojoson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/ipl-stat.jpg" alt="ipl-stat" width="488" height="349" /></a></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Note : figure in Crores (Rs) and based on year 1 data .</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">This is quite amazing that KKR and RR break even in the first year itself . It’s a great achievement after spending millions of dollars. I believe the bottom line of this extravagant money bonanza is “ <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Winning doesn’t matter</strong></span> “ and I have stats from KKR to support my hypothesis .</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Shashi-Tharoor" rel="lightbox[pics264]" href="http://www.jojojoson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Shashi-Tharoor.jpg"><img class="attachment wp-att-265 centered" src="http://www.jojojoson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Shashi-Tharoor.jpg" alt="Shashi-Tharoor" width="423" height="450" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Controversies surrounded this man from the day he decided to enter Indian politics.  From the day since then it was a roller coaster ride for Dr.Sashi Tharoor where he jumped from one to another. Started with opposition from local congress leaders of Tivandrum on his candidacy to the Loksabha, it continued with &#8220;Cattle Class&#8221; and &#8220;Holy Cows&#8221; which assigned him the title Mr.Twitter, again the &#8220;Visa&#8221;  tweeting issue, then came &#8220;Interlocutor&#8221;  and finally the IPL. We all know the details of these controversies from the media so there&#8217;s no point in vomiting all those shits again here.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Why Tharoor ?</span></h2>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Controversies are siblings of political leaders, its not new some MP or Minister is running into a controversy. My doubt is why there formed too much of noise against this eminent man?</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Is it bcz he&#8217;s a globally recognized personality and is able enough to execute a plan ?</li>
<li>Is it bcz he&#8217;s supremely educated and talented that &#8220;politrics leaders&#8221;  fear he will be a threat to their vested interests?</li>
<li>Was those &#8220;holy cows&#8221; and &#8220;interlocutor&#8221;  bcz of profoundness of Tharoor in English or lack of knowledge of media and politicians ?</li>
<li>Is it bcz he has no &#8220;God Fathers&#8221; in Indian politics ?</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;">On all the above controversies serious attempts where there from all sides of politics to whack off  Mr.Sashi Tharoor.  They say Sunanda Pushkar is his friend and she holds a sweat equity of Rs.70Cr, so that he should resign ? According to my knowledge most members of Rendezvous sports are his friends (I dont know if I can call friends, well they all know each other at least).  Why no issues on that ? <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Why should he be forced to resign on such a silly issue ? Why not Narendra Modi made to resign and face the court on Gujarat Muslim Massacre? Narendra Modi (if he believes hes innocent) can face the trial, prove himself and come back, isn&#8217;t it? Why BJP is not thinking that way ? Why not Pinarayai Vijayan the glorified CPI(M) State Secretary facing a serious allegation on the Lavlin case? Why can&#8217;t Pinarayi resign ? Why not Shibu Soran the killer ? Why not Saradh Pawar on Sugarcane case?</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<h2 style="text-align: justify;">Why only Tharoor ?</h2>
<p style="text-align: justify;">

<p style="text-align: justify;">Tony Blair once said “<strong>Global warming is too serious for the world any longer to ignore its danger</strong>”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There is little doubt that the planet is warming. Over the last century, our planet&#8217;s temperature has risen by around 1 degree Fahrenheit. The United Nations panel on climate change projects that the global temperature will rise by 3-10 degrees Fahrenheit by the end of the century &#8211; which is enough to have the polar caps melted. If the ice caps melt, a vast majority of our land will be underwater. It is well known that the recent natural calamities like floods, earthquakes etc. are the effects of climate change.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We all understand one thing from the recent Copenhagen summit, Our politicians and people who are leading the corporate world do not care about our planet anymore . Neither they going to take any action anytime soon . What they only care about is , GDP growth , financial stability and economic advancement . I believe the COP summit is a mockery to mask their activities.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We all understand that Country’s growth is important from a business perspective. Manufacturing companies would not be able to sustain if they cut down on the carbon emission or cap its limit. But I would like to ask them ,why we need to have 10- 12 % GDP growth when we wont have a place to live in near future.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Our ministers and politicians seem inefficient, inarticulate and reasonably unintelligent, when they deal with environmental issues. So I would like to tell all of you to join a campaign to tell these policy makers that, the time to do has arrived and the to time talk has already gone. As we all know better late than never !</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I hope that govt will take immediate action to cut down the carbon emission and I also hope that these developing countries will realize that if not taken into concern they will have recurrence of natural calamities with greater viciousness greater causalities and more comprehensive destruction&#8217;s. Even 2012 will not remain as a mystery.</p>
