    What are the best employee perks/benefits you've encountered?

    Posted: 28 Nov 2017 12:35 AM PST

    In one of my business classes, our final project is to create a mock business. One thing I am particularly passionate about is employee satisfaction. I'd like to offer my (currently pretend, but possibly future) employees perks beyond the usual discounts, paid vacation time, etc. I also like the idea of giving employees incentive to stay with the company with things like 1, 5, 10 year rewards (think New Belgium). What are some of the creative perks you've seen and/or what do you wish your employer offered you as an employee?

    Bus stop metaphor

    Posted: 27 Nov 2017 07:44 PM PST

    Hey team, I remember a metaphor about how the beginning's of all bus routes are the same in Iceland or some shit. After eight stops the routes diverge. The metaphor is that you were not supposed to worry about copying or following for the first few months or years and then eventually you'll find yourself Any idea where the metaphors from? Thank you!

    Dot & Bo Shuttered in 2016.. Live Again??

    Posted: 27 Nov 2017 11:50 AM PST

    I was really surprised to get a Cyber Monday email from Dot & Bo today, considering they closed in 2016: https://www.recode.net/2016/9/24/13040938/soohoo-at-the-end-of-the-day-dot-bo-just-failed

    Out of curiosity, does anyone know who bought them or how they got started up again?

    Their FB page was dormant from about May to August this year, too.

    Small warehouse item tracking

    Posted: 27 Nov 2017 08:52 AM PST

    Hi,

    I'm not sure if this is the correct sub to ask this question...

    I'm looking for a Tile Bluetooth tracker (style) solution to tagging and locating quickly crates in a warehouse that are staged and stacked for quick and easy access.

    We frequently run into the problem of locating a crate without having to move stuff around only to realize it's a number off and not he right one. This happens with items that have sat for a bit. New stuff comes in and things get shuffled around in a hurry.

    We're a small operation so some of the obvious answers like get a bigger place or a better warehouse guy who can do block diagrams is not the answers I'm looking for.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    How would I value my Company's contracts Backlog?

    Posted: 27 Nov 2017 01:25 PM PST

    Hi all. I'm currently having a practical valuation doubt regarding my family's business. We are approaching the negotiation phase with a possible buyer and I wanted to get better prepared regarding value. Our company is an infrastructure EPC and deals with spot contracts and long term contracts.

    I already did a multiple and DCF analysis to estimate the company value (I have a rough estimate). What I'm trying to do is find the value of our signed contracts (projects that haven't started and are long term projects) in relation to the whole company's value. This way I can argue that this would be the "minimum" value for the company, as I already have signed contracts. I tried studying/searching the internet on reference to value backlog/future contract and didn't find much (damodaran, koller, etc).

    In theory, I can value any asset calculating the NPV of its cashflow with the appropriate discount rate. That being said, I can't estimate the real NOPAT/FCF of the future project, only Gross revenue and gross income. I would have to give a rough estimate of the change in working capital required for the contract conclusion and I'm estimating that these contract have no capex nor D&A. But these contracts would have a total different margin for a buyer, given new SG&A expense, as example. Is there something wrong with this approach? Should I be doing something different? Any advice is appreciated!

    Is USPS QBRM Mail fast enough to be feasible?

    Posted: 27 Nov 2017 12:57 PM PST

    Basically I have a startup idea and a business plan that hinges almost entirely on letter mail, of which it would be almost too inconvenient to work if I couldn't provide prepaid return envelopes to my customers. Hence USPS BRM/QBRM. (Imagine the old Netflix model, if users had to get their own envelope/stamps to return the DVDs it would come across burdensome and unprofessional)

    However, looking at the comments on this page: https://www.uspsoig.gov/comment/40653 you can see it mainly people complaining that their BRM is taking 5-25+ days to get delivered. My service would be on a monthly subscription so 25 day delays would make this impossible.

    QBRM is supposed to be more automated than BRM thus increasing efficiency, but is it enough to bring the processing time down to a manageable letter (I.e. not much time added to the normal mail delivery time)

    I would like to go ask my local postmaster but I haven't figured out how to do that with more tact than "I hear your services are slow, are they?". And even if they say that their service would be fast, I'd be staking this whole startup on it so I'm hesitant to take their word for it.

    So I'm wondering what your experiences with BRM/QBRM are like?
