Summary
This programme looks at the impact that e-business has had, and continues to have, on the operations of small and large businesses today. It's not just a case of being up with the latest trends and technology, in some cases, whether or not e-business is embraced by an organisation, can mean the difference between success and failure. The programme looks at what is e-business and how it is used, the potential pitfalls and incorporating ICT into a business operation. Of particular use to teachers and students of Business Studies, ICT and other commerce-related subjects, is the focus on the two case studies in this programme - Snogum and Wishlist. Andrew Coutts from Snogum and Adrian Finlayson from Wishlist speak on a range of areas relevant to the way that their companies, and the commercial world in general, are not only turning to e-business as another way to achieve sales - but relying on it for a major part of their turnover. This programme is an ideal way to introduce e-business to middle and senior level secondary students, and provides an excellent base from which to explore further case studies.

Summary
All businesses are exposed to some level of risk, but when a natural disaster strikes they can suddenly face a variety of unexpected and often extraordinary situations. What happens in a matter of seconds can sometimes take years to rebuild. The 2011 earthquakes in Christchurch, New Zealand and the 2009 bushfires in Victoria, Australia demonstrated how devastating natural disasters can be for small businesses. This investigative-style programme for middle to senior secondary audiences explores the human cost for businesses affected by natural disasters, but also many of the logistical aspects, such as: assessing property damage, dealing with insurers, monitoring finances, relaunching a business and creating disaster preparation plans. Viewers will appreciate the way people overcome these traumatic experiences and what it's like running a business in the aftermath of a natural disaster.

Summary
The owner of a small manufacturing business finds himself in a typical predicament: sales are up 50 per cent on the previous year but profits are down. His more knowledgeable friend is able to explain that the increase, and the extra expenditure it incurred, were not previewed in the original budget - indeed, the budget appears to have been ignored altogether. He explains where the owner went wrong and why his working goals cannot be separated from financial realities. This humorous program uses clear examples aided by graphics to teach all managers, including those with no prior knowledge, to appreciate the importance of budgets to business activity, and guides them on how to construct and control a budget. Featuring John Cleese and John Bird.
