We need to know the difference between efficiency and productivity. This will help us know that the ultimate goal of a business is to have good productivity this is where quality standards and cost are considered.

But perhaps our noble pursuit of efficiency is becoming something more like a frenzied — and self-destructive — obsession.

Affinity Credit Cards

If you are one of the few, however, that charge large volume transactions regularly using credit cards, and settle the balance in full on a monthly basis to prevent the majority of the interest and charges, an affinity card might be an affordable choice for you to make regular contributions to charity.

Another thing to bear in mind when thinking about affinity cards for contribution functions, is that contributions and contributions made through the use of a credit card are not tax-deductible given that the contribution is really a contract agreement between the card issuer and the charity- and not from your pocket.
