A new 7 eleven stall have started operating just beside my mum's laundry shop and they have TODAYS newspaper up for grab everyday. Nowadays, I have free newspaper to read every night and its really interesting to know what I have miss out from a long period of not reading newspaper. Hmm... chance upon a very interesting article today, its about "Man Fertility" test kit.
According to the news article. It was commonly women to be blame for infertility problem but according to studies, incidents of infertilities are 30% due to women and 30% due to man! With the rest of the percentage due to some "unexplain" problem between man and women.
This man fertility kit is really a quantum leap in testing for male fertility. Man have always been considered or consider by themselve to be strong and proud genders and the evolutional ancestor genes in Man during our "apes" period is focus to be the dominating male and mating to ensure the survival and growth of mankind.
Darwins Theory aside, man are initially programmed (like to) many many years ago (by God or what I don't know) to just screw any girls they fancy. So telling a man to take a fertility test is truly a big trashing on his ego. So 3 cheers for this fertility kit lor!
Hmm...how to use it? I think the concave area in the kit is for something to go/flow into. I just felt that the packaging does not help much in getting the test "samples" quickly. Since its a Man product for Man only, a repackage of the product to something more "colorful" will be most welcome.
Bloody hot ah!!! Riccardo is bloody hot with the following article!
Now this Mr Micheal Chua Kheng Hwee (I call him Micheal "Chao Keng" Hwee) must have never rode a motorbike in his life and although his letter to TODAY was well written and and pretty rationale intially, the last paragraph was a total turn off to people and probably an insult to some who use motorbike as their daily transport:
Micheal "Chao Keng" Hwee: "Due to the elements, riders usually do not go as fast as drivers...."
Riccardo "Chin Buay Song": Eh!! Micheal! What you mean by due to the elements? Fifth element or what? Don't anyhow say we riders not as fast as drivers hor!!! You ride bike before or not? We got 125cc , 400cc and 1000cc leh! Motorbike usually go faster than your Toyota Corrolla, Atlis, Lancer, Swift, Subaru, Getz.... I am talking about motorbike superior power to weight ratio and pick up. Legally, most bikes will reach 90km/hr legal speed limits before your bloody car can achieve that! Micheal, I think you have been living in US or european country for too long where you don't see much bike around because the cars are cheap, haven't you been over-taken by a 1000cc or even 400cc or even a 150cc, 2 strokers bike while you are driving in singapore in your S$50K+ 10 yrs loan interests cars that is depreciating at a staggering rate every year and its technically only a 10 or 20 years vehicle rental from the our great government? Come on, even a state of the art, race proven bike is cheaper, faster and with proper mantainence, can be technically KEPT (not rent) forever with a small fees every ten years? Don't say we slow next time ok? Even we point middle finger at you faster than you can point back.
Micheal "Chao Keng" Hwee: "...riders usually do not go as fast as drivers and inadvertently obstruct drivers"
Riccardo "Chin Buay Song": " Oi Micheal! You got a problem is it? Your bloody car got bloody big and loud horn leh! Use it lah so that we will get out of your way. Please spare some thoughts can or not? Motorbike only have side mirrors and no rear mirrors, how the hell you expect riders know if we are obstructing the road? KNN, sometime car also obstruct the road, why don't you go complain them? Pick on someone your own "wheel numbers" ok? Next time give a "Friendly" peep, high beam the motor bike or just change the bloody lane lah! 3 lane for you to choose, you die die must stick to one lane meh? Still taking your driving test huh, die die must stick to one lane huh?
Micheal "Chao Keng" Hwee: " About the only thing a motorcycle is good for, besides its lower fuel costs, is its ability to squeeze between other vehicles"
Riccardo "Chin Buay Song": " Thanks Micheal for the compliment, finally". I think you often go out during Weekends, travelling along CTE with your "chio" girl friend in your sparking new Subaru WRX with 108hp but stuck the usual saturday traffic jam on the CTE. You are cursing and swearing why its always jam while the Malaysian "Kup Kias" bike and numerous other Singapore motorbike ride pass your left, right, squeezing in between cars that are at a stand still. Your 108hp car is a total waste in the saturday traffic jam and I reckon you only use 1hp only, for idling in the traffic jam. Yeah!!! I reach Orchard lor and Micheal still stuck at CTE listening to his "chio" girlfriend complaining "why you WRX so slow one!!!"
What the fish. Today I have one competitor who is also selling the same product as I am, taking advantage of the telephone number I posted on my ad to call me and F*** me up! Apparently he is not happy that I am selling my product "NO WET WATERLESS CONCEPT" car wash at S$27, way below the RRP of S$32.90 and member price of S$29.90. He treaten to call the distributor to cut the supplies to me if I continue selling at that price. Well I just tell him to go ahead cause I am actually selling this product to my friends only and also to some "stranger" customer who chance upon my Yahoo Auction ads. To me, this small little business is just a learning experience for me, I just like to know how its like to be a salesman promoting a product that is very very new to the market. It is also an oppurtunity to hone my "convincing"skills for a product that will be met with lots of skeptism.
I am sure no one believe that you can wash/clean your car/bikes without water right and most will think that without water, the paint work will be scratch by debris? This is the kind of customer's mental barrier that any salesman of the product have to break. In my case it involve LIVE demostration, use of product brochures and backing the claim with very good scientific fact with regards to the ingredients in the product. Also, selling this new product at a lower price can generate more sales and more people to use it and eventually this people will be satisfied with the results and come back to buy the product again! This time, the price will be raise abit due to more demand and due to a solid support for the product. Thus, to introduce a new product to the market, sometimes the salesman have to sell with peanuts profit or even a slight lost so as to create the first customer base. Its like catching fish....must use bait one. People like cheap cheap thing mah....
Ok, enough of the product talk stuff...I am not here to do promotion. Just really really bewildered why sell expensive people complain, now sell cheap cheap also got people complain? Damn, NTUC current selling White Bass fish at S$1.07/KG and ABC Supermarket (there is really an ABC supermarket) selling at S$1.15. Do you think ABC will call NTUC and Kao Pe Kao Bu!? Even though the fish came from the same supplier, i don't think its the supplier concern how much the dealer is selling the fish. The dealer can sell at a lost and the supplier won't give a damn cause supplier have already earn the profit before hand.
Now I sell cheap and eventually (if I continue with this line) more people buy from me. I am sure the last two party left laughing happily are the distributor and me. The competitor can just go home and sleep liao...
