EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Frank had to convince Otis for to buy equipment
from Thermocare. Salesman managed to do it
twice by offering relatively cheap compliments. For
the first time, he proposed to go to a Cubs game,
and, for the second time, he invited him and his
wife in Cancun. The third method was the
organization of a party in Las Vegas, which in my
opinion, was too much. Despite the fact that the
company was able to further persuade their
business partners, such actions are not ethical. In
particular, visiting adult entertainment clubs
with their business partners. If this information
gets out, it will strongly strike on the companys
image.

RECOMMEDATION
The acme corporation needs to change their strategy in keeping their clients, because of the media finds out about the paying for
clients to go to places like adult entertainment club; they are going to think that acme corporation is bribing their clients to stay with
them. They need to take an action for this. This study would also recommend for Company to build up a system for code of conduct
focusing on an ethical working environment where every employee is trained carefully about ethical behaviors, transparency and
business vision.
