Copycat Marketing

Day 103 - 897 days to go

Today, hundreds of people gathered at the Nirvana Memorial Park in Semenyih to offer prayers to their ancestors as part of the annual Enlightenment Ceremony which will last for 3 days from today. It is estimated that a few million revenue will be added into their annual income from the 3 days activities.

Bereavement care business is a big business in the region. It has evolved overtime from a very traditional business to a very modern type of business. They employ direct sales and multilevel marketing strategies to grow their business. They even include investment scheme with attractive projected investment returns to sell as investment products. Of course, not surprised that they also offer installment scheme. In other words, almost whatever sales strategies that you find in other types of businesses, you will find it in this industry too.



Happy Events:
  1. Met a friend who is a savvy property investor in commercial property and learned some investment knowledge from him.
  2. Able to reach the meeting place for less than an hour which is much better than I estimated given the expected massive traffic jam on a rainy Friday after work.
  3. I learned to follow my heart to do thing that I want immediately instead of doing it later as I may regret for not able to do it later.
  4. This week is 1/3 of the one month long slimming contest. I slimmed down about 3 kg withour much efforts except eat very little after afternoon yoga class and also consume bnergy power bar and b-fit pill before my meal. Both products help me to be slimmer.
