At present, in order to organize the company effective operation and achieve high performance indices, at the enterprise as a whole, great attention should be paid to the process of sales activity organization. With increasing competition in the markets, increasing consumer demand for quality of goods and services, reducing solvency and consumer demand, it becomes clear that it is necessary to implement an effective system of sales activity organization, as nowadays almost every company is relevant to today's issues and sets itself the task of optimizing and improving sales sactivities and reducing costs. In general, this paper is devoted to the identification of the features of foreign experience in service sales promotion and the possibility of its application in the Ukrainian market. For deeper investigation, we turned to the historical origin of “incentive” concept considered the interpretation by domestic scientists of the essence of service sales promotion and noted the main difference from any other means of communication. However, speaking about communication, we identified the relationship between sales and advertising and considered the historical origin of the concept of “ATL” - above the line and “BTL” - below the line, which are often found in modern marketing literature. Having determined the nature and direction from which the service sales promotion acquires its purpose, we formulated the main reasons why interest in this issue remains relevant today and its main advantages and disadvantages. The essence of the American and Japanese models of service sales promotion are investigated and trends in this phenomenon in foreign business entities are summarized. According to the results of the investigation, we indicated which model is more reasonable to use in the Ukrainian business market and how it will benefit for further growth of sales volume. We proposed to combine incentive methods into several large groups and described their main differences. For effective use of the acquired knowledge, we formed the measures due to which it is possible to improve the sales system in different directions of influence.

The article is devoted to the study of the dynamics of the stability of the socio-economic system in the environment of MathCad on the example of a specific company. Issues of making strategic decisions in the face of uncertainty have always been relevant at all levels of the national economy. So, for business entities, strategic issues are the development of a project, product, or functional (business) unit. Here are based on the categories of profitability, break-even, turnover, liquidity and other groups of criteria. In addition to traditional planning and forecasting tools, alternative techniques can be applied. For example, if we consider the main goal of the business entity’s activity not to maximize its own profit (economic interpretation), but to satisfy the needs of the population in goods and services with consumer properties that are necessary for the market (marketing interpretation), then when making decisions, the integrated assessment of social efficiency should be used. A set of chain indices is used that determine the level of satisfaction at transformation points created by the company’s products.There is no conflict of interests.

AbstractEuropean evidence law is a quite sensitive topic and has always been the cause of much debate by practitioners and academics. Theoretical and physical borders do not matter for transnational crime. The intensive mobility of people and the evolution of world trade with goods and services create favorable conditions for the cross-border crime to develop. Therefore, it is of a great importance to take far-reaching steps to an upgraded mechanism for obtaining evidence in and from the Member States. This article examines the application of two mutual legal assistance instruments – the request for mutual assistance, which was established by the European Convention on Mutual Assistance in Criminal Matters of 1959, the EU Mutual Legal Assistance Convention of2000 with its 2001 Protocol, and Arts. 48 to 53 of the Schengen Agreement, and the European Investigation Order introduced by the Directive 2014/41/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 3 April 2014 regarding the European Investigation Order in criminal matters. The main objective of this research is to emphasize the advantages and disadvantages of both judicial cooperation mechanisms. A comparative analysis of both operational tools is an appropriate way to assess which one is related to more procedural savings and how both of them deal with the protection of human rights. Thus, the modern instruments for judicial cooperation in the area of transnational evidence-gathering as an international response to crimes with cross-border dimensions can be adequately valued.

This article seeks to interrogate the advantages and disadvantages of beneficiation law for Botswana’s mining industry and its implications for foreign investment protection. Furthermore, it argues that the enactment of beneficiation law could stimulate economic growth and development in Botswana. On a proper analysis of the potential of beneficiation law it seems plain that it may facilitate the integration, of among others, the cutting and polishing segments through the backward and forward linkages in the entire diamond value chain to move Botswana diamond industry a step further as a new and emerging jewellery manufacturing and retail center in order to derive maximum returns from the rough diamond production. Quite clearly, cutting and polishing of diamonds in Botswana is bound to promote employment which in turn will promote demand for goods and services that would have a positive impact on economic growth in Botswana.  The paper concludes that on a balance, the opportunities accruable from the enactment of this law far outweigh the downsides and will not in any way scare investors away as some have perceived it.

Large forces and significant thermal effects are created on the rolls when rolling sheets. The higher the stability of the rolls, the less downtime during their rerolling and higher productivity. (Research purpose) The research purpose is in analyzing the ways of restoring rolls and choose the most appropriate method for restoring these parts. (Materials and methods) The article presents the analysis of the scientific and technical literature on the topic of rolling production, methods for restoring large-sized machine parts of machine-building and metallurgical industries that work in difficult conditions and are subject to a high degree of wear. Authors try to solve the problem by means of comparative and logical analysis based on theoretical and empirical methods of scientific research. (Results and discussion) The article presents two groups of methods for restoring rolled rolls: banding and surfacing the working layer of the roll. Authors have analyzed each method in terms of technology, equipment, and feasibility. The article presents the advantages and disadvantages of the methods under consideration. (Conclusions) The most acceptable way to restore parts with a high degree of wear is surfacing. It is most efficient to apply submerged surfacing using an additional hot additive. Such surfacing, despite some complication of the equipment design, allows to deposit the metal on the roll with low heat input and in most cases in one pass. Surfacing using an additional hot additive allows to increase the productivity of the process by up to 250 percent while reducing the penetration depth by 2-3 times and saving energy by up to 40 percent.
