Apostrophe

Hi, I would like to now why we don't use apostrophe in companies positions (e.g. IBM Sales Consultants). Why don't we use IBM's Sales Consultants?

Another question is:

IBM Sales Consultants Satisfaction.

Should I put an aposthrophe after consultants to referer to consultants' satisfaction? (IBM Sales Consultants' Satisfaction) Or it should be IBM's sales consultants satisfaction?.


Thank you!

  • g.

  • Why don't we use IBM's Sales Consultants?
  • That's pretty much for the same reason we say "you are" and not "you is".
  • It's just how English is done.
