The buyer power is high considering across the nation buyers have many choices from whom they are able to buy services from. Since Comcast offers internet, cable, and mobile services there are several competitors in each of the market segments and since telephone and data services do not vary much the bargaining power is in the buyers’ hands. There are also certain markets where the buyer power is low because they are one of few companies who offer cable, but depending on what product a customer is looking for can determine what kind of buying power they hold. It is important for Comcast to continue to be innovative to remain competitive and attract customers in a different way. A way that they have already done this is through the X1 platform that utilized the cloud and Comcast’s network to provide an easy and fast way to navigate cable TV service and make it more personalized to the consumer using it (“Xfinity Tv’s”, 2012).

Beginning in the the Middle East, then onto an island near Greece, a house in London, and finally a small refugee town in California is the progressively eastward journey that the reader and the protagonists go on throughout the novel “Exit West”. Written by Mohsin Hamid, this is an eye opening novel in which the author gives the story of a young middle eastern couple who are forced to leave their homeland and become refugees.

Hamid gives these real refugees faces in the form of his characters Saeed and Nadia, the young couple forced to leave their home due to the increasing violence from the progressing militant presence which is comparable to ISIS.

Position statement: For college Should I or should I not, that is the decision we all encounter when we finally reach high school. Now, there are many factors that will affect a person’s life.

The aim of this report was to research and understand what exactly digital means, the importance of the digital world to companies today and how they use it to the best of their ability for the positive performance of their business. Through our research of academic and peer reviewed articles and journals we learn how digital space can provide a world of opportunities to organisations as we focus in on the hospitality industry and the hotels who make the most of the digital platforms available. We are aware that many companies are rushing to become digital in order to reap the awards of these opportunities, but we look at how they surge to be effective or in some cases fail and see a decline in their digital popularity scale.
