Hello..Sorry for not posting this past week; enjoying myself  with my wife in South of france…my son works on a super yacht so we took the opportunity to visit him…..

It was interesting to notice the French selling methods . For example..after my wife bought some table mats,the owner gave her  a small trinket…it worked as intended as my wife thought him so kind and went back the next day to buy again…lesson ;giving your customer more value than expected often results in more sales…       The reason is all humans like to be liked and not taken advantage of..an unexpected gift is just the opposite and encourages trust..the basis for a relationship , a good basis to sell .

We are still working on our white paper..there is so many interesting things happening including the way a number of major companies are marketing to the poor…and payment transactions being offered to individuals whithout a bank account..

The eco enterprise education program has been started by developing a template /model lesson starting with the Blue whale..partly because of it’s importance in the oxygen replenishment of the planet…

We have nearly finished the office protocol and members rules for the computer center in Pakistan…more on this when it’s open..

If you are a newly formed startup and struggling to find funding ..you will find our comments on ” the money men” in the white paper helpful..there are many advantages of starting poor…one of which is you will not give away a large slice of equity..in effect losing control of your “baby “.

…Think long think hard think big….
