How many hours per week will we commit to work in the business?

  11. Organisation & Marketing In Mark 12:31, Jesus said, “You shall love your neighbour as yourself.” Romans 13:9-10 reads, “If you love your neighbour as much as you love yourself you will not want to harm or cheat him, or kill him or steal from him … love does no wrong to anyone” (TLB).

  12. Organisation & Marketing Integrity in Marketing & Sales Does my advertising make suggestions or raise expectations that I cannot fulfil? Are your customers going to discover something later that they will wish you had told them up front? How do you feel about having to explain to a customer what the advert or the sales agreement really meant? What is in the “small print” that the customer really should know? Do you “oversell” by promising or implying that your product or service will do more than it really will? When selling or marketing, do you ever deceive customers by subtly leading them to believe something that is not true?

Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? 15 What harmony is there between Christ and Belial? Or what does a believer have in common with an unbeliever? 2 Corinthians 6:14-15 (NIV) Don't become partners with those who reject God. How can you make a partnership out of right and wrong? That's not partnership; that's war. Is light best friends with dark? Does Christ go strolling with the Devil? Do trust and mistrust hold hands?
