Customer motivation

An increase in steam pressure over design will not increase vapor handling capacity for the usual fixed capacity ejector. The increased pressure usually decreases capacity due to the extra steam in the diffuser. The best ejector steam economy is attained when the steam nozzle and diffuser are proportioned for a specified performance [8]. This is the reason it is difficult to keep so-called standard ejectors in stock and expect to have the equivalent of a custom designed unit. The throttling type ejector has a family of performance curves depending upon the motive steam pressure. This type has a lower compression ratio across the ejector than the fixed-type. The fixed-type unit is of the most concern in this presentation. 

In this chapter, we have considered the dimensions on which mentoring outperforms other methods of employee training and development. These include being an integrated approach, fostering motivated continuous learners, and effecting very rapid as well as customized development. 

Natural products, from plants and foods to rocks and minerals, are complicated systems, but their analysis by Raman spectroscopy is a growing area. Most examples come from quality control laboratories, motivated to replace current time-consuming sample preparation and analysis steps with a less labor-intensive, faster technique but most authors anticipated the eventual application to process control. Often a method will be practiced in a trading house or customs facility to distinguish between items perceived to be of different qualities, and thus prices. 

Conclusion with regard to stock of hypotheses and model Two important actors of the supply chain (auxiliary producers and textile finishers) have been involved in the ARS-system. The clothing industry and the commercial enterprises (bulk good) did not participate. Although the latter supply directly to the customers, assessment systems concerning process related emissions (ARS or OKOTEX 1000) have not yet been of interest (hypotheses 8). The ARS-system and its environmental requirements for waste water motivated the commercial actors in the supply chain to apply to (to strive for ) more transparency and for an environmentally friendly (orientation in the choice of products (hypotheses 7). In addition, (at the) auxihaty producers research activities have been activated, (hypotheses 2). 

What methods can be used to determine potential customers wishes in a more or less certain way and how can product quality be translated into customers wishes as part of a secure apphcation regarding (eco)toxic risks The fundamental motive of safety alone does not appear adequate to create the requisite demand for more environmental and healthy products. 

Customer orientation and initial solution-free formulation of customers wishes, as an orientation for product development, appear to be promising approaches for innovations with regard to the application safety of chemicals-based products. However, the initiative for this is not mainly due to substance manufacturers, but rather to the chemicals users being close to the consumers. To what extent the commercial/industrial chemicals end-users (users of production auxiliary materials that are not included in the product) also transform the latent desire for application-safe products into effective demand behaviour, depends on other constellations of motives than those of private end-consumers. The employers liabihty insurance, chambers of commerce and industry, branch associations, trade unions and management boards of large-scale companies play a key role in making quality and competition effective as drivers for innovation here too. 

The motivation for interest in designing robust products and processes is that it is frequently more cost effective to reduce the effect of the environmental variation rather than to eliminate the source of the variation by controlling the environment. Furthermore, in some situations it might be impossible to eliminate or control the environmental variation. As an example, a manufacturer cannot control the variation in the use of their product and so would prefer to design the product to be robust to a wide range of customer usage conditions rather than to impose instructions that...

Consider next some issues of motivation. An individual s preference can be inconsistent in various ways that do not imply any kind of split self. It is possible to make a person prefer A over and C over D, even if A is essentially the same option as D, and the same as C. For instance, Mr H. mows his own lawn. His neighbor s son would mow it for 8. He wouldn t mow his neighbor s same-sized lawn for 20 (Thaler 1980). The proposed explanation for this phenomenon is that people value out-of-pocket expenses differently from opportunity cost, thus creating a normatively unjustifiable presumption in favour of the status quo. Although this particular example may yield to another explanation (Section IX), many other cases certainly fit this distinction. Thus, credit card customers may be less deterred by a cash discount to non-users than by a surcharge to users, even if the two are substantively the same (Thaler 1980). If in such cases it is possible to induce preference reversal, it is not because two parts of the person have different preferences. Rather it is because the person reacts to the way in which the options are presented, and not simply to their substantive content. 

There you have the essence—in a few words—of a sound approach to market development. But it lacks one essential characteristic. Let s call that motivation. Motivation comes only from a complete understanding of the product, its value to the customer, and a personal commitment to the entire project. This is known as justification and summarizes the reasons for undertaking the market development project in the first place. It is the keystone that holds the arch in place and provides the basis for commitment to a successful venture. 

There are, of course, many thousands of experienced water treatment, field service representatives around the world who are sound in both the technical and the sales sides of the job. But the best representatives are generally those people who are not only extremely technically astute, but who also excel at selling. This is not a reference to any dubious practices of high-pressure selling, but rather the ability to inspire confidence and loyalty from their customers, due to their honesty, experience, and motivational and organizational skills on-site. 

An advantage of small water treatment companies is that, generally, they have the ability to minimize corporate bureaucracy and respond very quickly to customers needs. They often have a higher percentage of more experienced, motivated, and entrepreneurial people within their total numbers of staff. They just have less staff overall. Small companies may be limited when trying to handle multisite accounts or where considerable financial resources or cash flow is required.
