Buss4 research notes?

Hey, i'm currently revising for BUSS4, and i thought it might be a good idea to create a thread where people can discuss the research they've found and the best examples of businesses to use in the exam :smile:

I've focused a lot on Apple, Nokia, Barclays and Royal Mail but wondered if
anyone might be able to share some good points about them, or make some other suggestions please? :smile:

My teacher gave us a list of companies to research;

Glaxosmith Klein, Barclays, Nokia, Kodak, IKEA, Google/Yahoo, Zappos/Amazon and Royal Mail.

Trying to plough through all this research for the exam!

Thanks I'll have a look at them :smile: I'm really worried about the exam because mines a resit and I'm doing it as an external student so I don't actually have a teacher. My old teacher has offered to help so I've emailed them practice essays but not getting any replies :/

Hold up, I post research on here and you want to exchange? thanks
Deleted my post with research info, If anyones willing to actually share research material rather than using mine and not posting nothing back than let me know.

Basically people negged me because I was looking for an exchange of research, not just people asking for my research which took time and effort to analyse and giving me nothing in return

Two people asked for some help. That was the point of this thread. I started it because I'm doing it as an external student so literally had no teaching and struggling to do it by myself. I would happily have shared anything I had that I thought would help if you asked for information on a specific thing like I did.

And no-one 'negged' anyone. Simply asked POLITELY, don't want to share anything, thats fine, but there's no need to be rude about it.
