Sale Quotations
Sale Quotes from:
-
Believe Quotes
We believe that January sales may have been even worse had Microsoft continued its marketing push, and believe that sell through was helped in part by deep discounting of new releases during the month. January marked the fifth consecutive month of software sales decline, and we expect a return to double-digit sales declines in February, with an accelerating rate of decline in March.

Chemicals Quotes
While many companies use multiple logistics cost measures, the primary metric chosen can have a significant impact on how logistics cost performance is viewed. For example, those companies using logistics costs as a percent of sales as their primary measure and who operate in industries such as chemicals and other commodities saw that cost ratio fall in 2005 due to strong upward pricing power that impacted the top line, even though logistics costs also rose. Other industries had rising logistics costs with flat or declining prices for their products, driving up logistics costs as a percent of sales.
-
Consensus Quotes
While management will likely continue to guide conservatively, we expect 2006 outlook will be at least in-line with (analysts' consensus estimate of) $4.18. JC Penney's stepped up branding campaign, which kicks off March 2 and includes a temporary NY store, should drive some sales and more importantly position them for market share gains as industry rationalization frees up share.
-
Amount Quotes
Whether this represents a small gain or small loss on the sale will depend on when the final closing is held since the mortgage values will change and the amount of credit we get for prepaid items will change between now and the closing date that is set after they do their due diligence.
-
Avoid Quotes
Whether this customer drives in, phones in or clicks in, you as the dealer must develop an instant rapport with that customer and give them all of the information necessary to purchase from you. What you want to avoid is putting that younger buyer through a more traditional sales process from the past that when they finally weed through everything, they disconnect and go somewhere else. To succeed today, you must make sure these customers have the same experience on your lot that they had over the Internet.
