Shui in Business
More
and more people and companies are using Feng Shui. Retail
stores like Bath and Body Works,
Ace Hardware, hotels like Hilton,
and companies like Coca-Cola, Virgin
Airlines, the Bank of England,
Citibank, Merrill Lynch and
Charles Schwab have all used Feng Shui to enhance
their prosperity. In fact, even the United Nations
has embraced it. Retail stores use Feng Shui and product placement
to sell their products. Fast food restaurants often use color
to attract customers, and Coca-Cola headquarters in Atlanta
uses Feng Shui in their offices, and have reported an increased
in profits and employee efficiency. Madonna,
Oprah, and Donald Trump
have used Feng Shui for gain their fortunes. Donald Trump,
who has been using Feng Shui since the 1970s says, “You
don’t have to believe in Feng Shui for it to work. I
just know it brings me money.”

Look who’s giving Feng Shui a stamp of approval…
