Gong Xi Fa Cai!
(Wish you prosperity!)While Asia is still celebrating the Chinese New Year, we are bringing you this State of the Nation as the first in the Year of the Tiger.
The Tiger is very much aligned with where we are as a business this year:
- The Tigers motto is: I WIN
- The Tigers core is: Positive
- Gemstone related to Tiger: Diamond
Noble and Fearless, Tigers are respected for their courage, even by their adversaries.
The same spirit as our Unaico Business, as we are fighters and leaders that never give up. In 2010, watch out for the Unaico Tiger!
Option Split
After our “re-launch” with new IT, new website and improved back office functionalities, we have received tremendous amounts of positive feedback, and we can also very clearly see from the growth all over the globe that we are on the right track. The market responded accordingly and the price per unit in our internal option-market jumped through the roof and hit the magic 0.30 Euro.The executive team and investors agreed to split the share options, and it worked very smoothly with hardly any challenges. The amount of options in the market was tripled and the new price determined by the market is now stable at around 0.10 Euro.
A leader said, "Wow, I have tripled my shares! Thank you, Unaico! And congratulations to all my fellow investors out there! I am looking forward to seeing the value grow again, from my stake that is now three times the size!!!"
Hong Kong recap of Germany launch
Earlier this month, Dan Andersson and Rune Evensen hosted one of the largest Unaico meetings so far, with an amazing attendance of over 600 people in Hong Kong. The scene was set with Lion Dance, Chinese Dragon, Catwalk fashion show with Unaico/Sitetalk accessories and an amazing crowd.Dan promised the newly-joined group from Taiwan that he would go there if they could build an event of 200+ people. Now, less than a month later, they have booked Dan and Rune to host the first ever Taiwan meeting to be held in March with more than 300 people anticipated. Amazing for a group that joined while our website was down and our new IT under development.
Slovenia event
Thomas Nordlund and Sebastian Greenwood attended the biggest meeting so far for Unaico in the Slovenian market. Over 350 people attended this fantastic event. Alot of new guests were listnenings to the Unaico opportunity and from that event it is clear how the ambitious and hard working Slovenian team is growing and spreading to other markets. It goes to show that people understand that the Unaico business opportunity is the real deal and that many people are taking this opportunity to fullfill their dreamsHungary event
During the Hungarian event, Thomas Nordlund and Sebastian Greenwood realised how important the Hungarian market is really becoming for Unaico, with nearly 400 people attending. What is nice to see is that people are succeding in their organisations and a lot of positive energy is coming from the Hungarian market.Share Dividend
Our Shares Dividend will be paid out to your mandatory account within the next seven days, giving our members the possibility to buy extra shares in their portfolio. IT is performing the final testing on the calculation and payout process this week.We think that you will be rather pleased when you see how well the companies have performed and what it turns into in terms of dividend per share!
IT
Our IT development is on track, moving forward and smoothly. Always when dealing with IT it is difficult to estimate how long testing and bug-fixing will take. Seemingly small errors can take hours, days and even weeks to solve. Our hardworking IT team is 100% dedicated to give us a state of the art system, both in our back-office and in our option market. Unaico and its surrounding businesses will always be in development. The internet almost moves with the speed of the light these days, and in order to catch up with the latest in development we need to constantly upgrade, improve and explore. We have built this into all of our business plans going forward.Maldives
The annual leadership incentive is coming up.This year’s trip will be to the amazing Maldives. At the time of writing this we have approx. 35 qualifiers, and with spouses we will have around 70 people attending this lifestyle event. We have promised all qualifiers that this is a reward rather than a working trip. The priority will be on leisure, and with just minor gatherings (preferable on the beach) for some team-building and high level strategy sessions.
Adclicks
You will be pleased to hear that we have 40 double-decker buses driving round the streets of Hong Kong, fully covered in Sitetalk promotion as well as having internal marketing messaging on the internal televisions. Apart from the great PR, all leads generated will go into the Adclicks campaign.Sitetalk
You will be aware that we launched the features on Sitetalk according to Release 1. The second major Release of features will come at the end of March. Additional to that you will see small updates and upgrades added as we go along.Of course we are aware that many people feel that Sitetalk is a bit "skinny" and compared to some of the larger players this is hard to argue against.
As it stands now, we have over 50,000 users registered, and we are anticipating record-breaking user acquisition as we go forward with every release. And we have built in a strong foundation for growth, with a rock-solid architecture designed for millions of simultaneous users -- you can see this in the smooth and ultra-fast connections and responses to your clicks.
What is important to understand is that Sitetalk is very much designed and conceptualised as a web 3.0 community. What this means is that the users don't just add the content (web 2.0) but also are instrumental in the design of the functions and features. This means that we will launch the real backbone of the community, with the main features that really add the majority of the value but not all the quizzes, games, personality tests, kisses, hugs, and recreational time-sinks! Where this process then goes is that our users and groups will give us steer and direction into what they ACTUALLY want. Sitetalk, your functions, your way.
