Marketing Fundamentals.A Professor at one of the IIM's (INDIA) was explaining marketing
concepts to the Students:-
1. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say:
I am very rich. Marry me!"
That's Direct Marketing
2. You're at a party with a bunch of friends and see a gorgeous
girl. One of your friends goes up to her and pointing at you says:
"He's very rich. Marry him."
That's Advertising
3. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and get
her telephone number. The next day, you call and say:
Hi, I'm very rich. Marry me."
- That's Telemarketing
4. You're at a party and see gorgeous girl. You get up and
straighten your tie, you walk up to her and pour her a drink, you open the door
(ofthe car)for her, pick up her bag after she drops it, offer her ride and then say:
By the way, I'm rich. Will you marry me?"
- That's Public Relations
5. You're at a party and see gorgeous girl. She walks up to you and says:
You are very rich! Can you marry ! me?"
- That's Brand Recognition
6. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say:
I am very rich. Marry me!"
She gives you a nice hard slap on your face.
That's Customer Feedback
7. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say:
I am very rich. Marry me!"
And she introduces you to her husband.
That's demand and supply gap
8. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and before
you say anything, another person come and tell her: "I'm rich. Will you marry me?" and she goes with him
-That's competition eating into your market share
9. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and before you say:
I'm rich, Marry me!" your wife arrives.
- That's restriction for entering new markets
-

all is summarised in one barely 10 sentences. haa.

I've been POXED!
Yes, i've gotten chicken pox, if u're wondering what that means.
Most people blame it on my younger brother, who also had chicken pox recently, before i did. But amazingly, people whom he knew but didn't get in contact with had chicken pox as well. Puzzled right? I've heard that many people are getting poxed recently. So it might be some other people who had passed it to me.
I'd missed loads of lessons, lectures and of cos dance. Missed working at MHOTEL as well, although i'd be very happy not to see some of the people there. *ahem* but i still miss my frens there. My manager even called me up personally to "invite" me to work. ha! but sorry! i cant. i'll go back when i've recovered though (:
getting poxed is definitely a very terrible thing. shall update more next time. Currently enjoying the Korean Drama, Goong (palace) that sweetie meiyi lent me. She paid me a visit today and even slipped a bag of my favourite dried mango for me! But sadly, i cant eat it. ): bleah. love ya meiyi!! (:
Go watch my show lo!!!!

旧的不去,新的不来。
新的走了,旧的回来。
该走的不走,不该走的走。
该留得不留,不该留的却留。

Sauce Dishes and Water Bottles"There are Teacups-lookalike but they are really evil and not-nice." This is what a friend of mine told me after reading my entry on Chopsticks, Vases and Teacups. I do agree with him and i have a category for those kind of ppl.
SAUCE DISHES.A sauce dish is also small (bt not that dainty) and would be used to contain different kinds of sauce.
You wouldn't know what kind of sauce the dish will be carrying untill u sit at the table. That's what a Sauce Dish's like. You won't know how he/she (actually my theories are on girls la.haha) is untill u had a taste of it. Get it? Haha.
Oh yea. I had another to add to.
WATERBOTTLES.I know it sounds damn plain compared to the others. But it's what i thought of when some of my frens asked me what are they.
Waterbottles may look simple on the outside, but most are durable and wud be with you always, esp when u're dying of thirst. They come in many different forms and sizes - plastic, metal, squarish, cylinder etc. Waterbottle just need a little packaging and they'll look fab. Rmb those little waterproof sacks that u can use to keep ur bottles? Or the stickers that we can paste to decorate our bottles? Yeap. Or even branded bottles like "VODA VODA" LOL. haha.
Agree? i think i shud write a book. hee.
