Chinese GraphicMail Email Marketing Franchise Shows Soaring Growth Figures and Opportunities Unique to the Chinese Market


(PRWEB) February 15, 2012

GraphicMail CEO Nicholas Eckert recently visited the company?s fastest-growing franchise in Beijing, to discuss issues regarding email delivery, marketing and product requirements for the Chinese marketplace.

Since its launch in 2009, GraphicMail China?s sales numbers have been consistently above initial forecasts by about 20-30%, with an additional 50-75% growth estimated for 2012.

Partnered with NewEnlighten Business & Information Consulting Co. Ltd, GraphicMail is one of the top international players in the Chinese emailing space, with over 80% of the franchise?s clientele situated within Beijing and further efforts in place to promote expansion to Shanghai and the Guangzhou region.

From a market placement perspective, NewEnlighten?s Director Jason Wang sees the strengths of GraphicMail to be that the company offers relationship-based services that are tailored to local clients and that there are opportunities for additional services that extend beyond what is offered in other countries: ?The most important thing to survive in China is to build strong relationships with market stakeholders, such as suppliers, the government and key clients. Sometimes these relationships can be so influential that when you are bidding against another company which is offering a lower quality product at a higher price, you will still lose the contract simply because the buyer always chooses whoever they have the best relationship with. To clients, having a good relationship means they get exclusive special deals, one-on-one sales with 24/7 support, surprise presents for important holidays, and so on. The key to succeeding in the Chinese market is to learn these relationship skills as quickly as possible.?

In order to make GraphicMail?s offering more competitive in China, NewEnlighten has added a consulting service, which consists of registering and managing domains, building websites, managing email campaigns and providing analysis of email marketing reports.

Given the ironclad restrictions of the country?s internet laws, Western-based digital operators face several challenges in synchronizing day-to-day processes with China-based partners:

Standard data-sharing applications such as Google Docs and Dropbox are not accessible in China, since these are blocked along with social networks such as Facebook, Yammer and Twitter. Only government approved and regulated alternatives are available nationally, which has forced GraphicMail to seek other methods of transferring corporate and franchise information to NewEnlighten.

The search engine marketing landscape is also different to what Western companies are accustomed to; NewEnlighten reports that SEO is virtually non-existent, instead, paid advertising on Google-equivalent search engine ?Baidu? is a widely favored practice, with videos uploaded primarily to Baidu-owned ?Qiyi? and rival channel ?Youku? as substitutes to outlawed Youtube.

Client communications and on-boarding of new prospects is also highly differentiated from GraphiMail?s Western methods of communication, with online self-help centers of no interest to Chinese clients – who rely solely on direct access to the vendor via personal interaction. Standard public relations and content marketing practices are also not applied by the Chinese franchise, due to the nature of their unique acquisition of new business via personal leads and relationship-reliant networks.

Says GraphicMail CEO Nicholas Eckert: ?Chinese mailing practices are different from the US and Europe. While there are Internet usage and anti-spam laws there is a cultural passiveness about the inbox, with recipients rarely complaining about spam. There is an opportunity to educate Chinese firms on how email marketing return on investment is directly impacted through by obtaining permission and proper list management.?

GraphicMail?s strategy for the coming year is to make further investments in China and to pursue a number of key markets; including ecommerce enterprises, mobile-reliant real estate companies and electronic direct marketing businesses.

Two of Internet marketing’s most well-recognized legends have just teamed up to devise a new product. The Fast Affiliate Cash Training System (FACTS for short) is a proven, step-by-step system to get cash coming in quickly and easily. This money-making blueprint contains information that is extracted straight from Matt Bacak and Shawn Casey’s best live training sessions. While such one-on-one access would normally cost several thousand dollars, the same millionaire-generating strategies can be had through the FACTS system for an introductory price of just $ 47. Struggling Internet marketers who would like to sit back and capitalize on someone else’s hard work can learn more about the Fast Affiliate Cash Training System online at http://promotingtips.com/theFACTS

BusinessDictionary.com defines affiliate marketing as “a means of achieving greater market penetration through Web sites that target specific groups of Internet users. The entire sales transaction takes place at [the targeted] Web site, which is equipped to handle the complete online payment acceptance process. [The targeted Web site then] passes on a percentage of the sold item’s price as commission to the affiliate Web site from where the sale originated.” More simply stated, affiliate marketing lets someone else do all the hard work and allows the affiliate to then skim off huge commissions on that someone else’s profits.”

According to Wikipedia, “MarketingSherpa’s research team estimated that, in 2006, affiliates worldwide earned US$ 6.5

Emotional Dynamics Expert, Dr. Erik Fisher ?Dr. E?? Developing Unique Broadcast Series Concepts with CMG Holdings Group, Inc. (CMGO)

(PRWEB) February 13, 2012

A docu-reality series on American families, an investigative series on ?Criminal Psychology? and segment series helping returning military veterans of war are timely and unavailable elsewhere

Leading Emotional Dynamics expert, Dr. Erik Fisher, ?Dr. E??, Atlanta-based licensed psychologist and author, who last month announced an agreement to co-author a book on Child Sexual Abuse with best-selling author Peter Occhiogrosso, is in the latter stage of development on two television series that explore different aspects of the world of psychology. Confirming his place as an expert in the field with his understanding of human behavior and emotion in any number of life settings, Dr E? has appeared on major networks, including FOX affiliates, providing advice for parents and families and several segments on CNN?s Newsroom and HLN?s Prime News. More recently he has provided commentary with Vinnie Politan on the topics of the Josh Powell murder-suicide (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zRmFL2AuGM&feature=youtu.be) and the Casey Anthony video blog (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKaH5cG4-Fc) of note. The balanced nature of his commentary and incisive insights are making him a household name and respected analyst in the media industry.

Both series are in development and have been pitched to top cable channels and networks through Dr. E??s management company, CMG Holdings Group Inc. (CMGO), Creative Management Group Inc. Agency and Alan Morell, who met with network and cable executives at NATPE and the recent Reel Screen conference in Washington, D.C. ?We?re very confident that cable and network programming executives are looking seriously at our projects with Dr. E?, and we look forward to exploring additional opportunities for these properties with other outlets,? commented Morell, Chairman and CEO of CMG Holdings Group, Inc. Creative Management Group Inc. Agency.

The first program under consideration involves Dr. E??s extensive experience with parents and families. The Family Fix is a one-hour docu-reality series that rises above the fray of many reality shows dealing with families. Based on his two decades of work with children, parents and families and his parenting book, The Art of Empowered Parenting: The Manual You Wish Your Kids Came With, The Family Fix will incorporate Dr. E??s unique brand of therapy, featured in his web series, Off the Couch with Dr. E? to help families understand what ails them.

The second program, Anatomy of a Criminal, is an investigative series chronicling some of the bigger criminal cases in our news today. But rather than explore the ins and outs of their trials and legal cases, as so many other programs do, Anatomy will delve into the psychology of criminals, their cases and the supporting cast involved in these cases. The show aims to help a curious society understand what makes a criminal tick. Revealing a side of the story not available through network news or legal opinions, Anatomy of a Criminal promises to keep the audience hungry for each episode.

Both series in development are co-created and Directed by Clio Award-winning Director Richard D?Alessio of http://www.kontagious.tv, who added, “I am excited to bring these projects into production, and firmly believe that Dr. E? will have a powerful impact on the media and minds of America. His creativity and passion for his work are impressive.”

Dr. E? enjoys philanthropy and is proud to announce his appointment as a Director of The ArtReach Foundation, a non-profit, whose mission is to influence, through creative expression and art, the growth and development of those who?ve experienced the traumatic effects of war. Related to ArtReach, Project America’s Jim Proeller, former Senior Director of Editorial Operations at CNN, and Dr. E? are working to develop a series of news segments highlighting the many needs of military returning home and the programs available to help them re-assimilate to civilian life. These segments will explore the emotional, financial, educational and relational challenges of soldiers who’re now stateside, and their re-introduction to home life. It will hopefully help educate them to the resources across the country that are available to them.

Eroding the Fear of Foreclosure: Strategic Defaulters Real Experiences With Post-Foreclosure Credit


Carlsbad, CA (PRWEB) May 25, 2011

One of the most cited deterrents of deciding whether or not to foreclose or strategically default is the fear of a catastrophic and irreversible hit to one’s credit score, leading to an inability to rent, purchase a new car or home, or open a new credit card. After polling some of our 6,000 clients nationwide, YouWalkAway.com has discovered it’s a fear that may be blown way out of proportion.

Susan Edwards is a client of YouWalkAway.com, a company that walks defaulting homeowners through the foreclosure process. Edwards recently walked away from a property in Southern California. “Prior to missing our first payment, my credit score was 805,” Edwards stated “I checked it again in June after we missed the 5th payment and it was 680. At the time, it was commonly reported that the average foreclosure would lower your credit score about 150 points. I had assumed it would stay in that range for up to 7 years. I was wrong.”

So, what is Edwards credit score now? According to Edwards, after only 3 months following the foreclosure auction of her property, her credit is back up to 734 and climbing. Fortunately, the hit taken to her credit was not nearly as bad as most people, including those who claim to be experts, might have depicted.

Edwards is not the only YouWalkAway.com client to see her credit rebound so quickly. New York resident and YouWalkAway.com client Jodi Romanello has walked away from two investment properties in Florida. While she has never closely monitored her credit score, Romanello has yet to see any negative repercussions of a credit drop. “When I first skipped payments on my first foreclosure, CitiBank Diners Club abruptly canceled my card due to ‘undesirable changes in my credit rating,’” Romanello explained. “I got very upset because I hadn’t thought this would happen, but to my enormous relief none of my other cards did this. I have a high limit with American Express Gold, Visa, MasterCard and a lot of store cards, and Amex just renewed my card with an invitation to go Platinum.” Romanello continued to explain how she staved off the negative credit effects of two foreclosures, “I am careful to pay all other bills instantly when I receive them, I run no balances on any cards month over month.”

According to the study, credit cards, car payments and student loans are the most common forms of additional debt, with personal loans and medical loans rounding out the bottom. Surprisingly, only 23% of those surveyed have ever defaulted on any other debts. Many YouWalkAway.com clients have never even had a late payment on their record prior to strategically defaulting from a property. Although, 91% of underwater homeowners surveyed are facing other debts in addition to their mortgage, YouWalkAway.com has seen these recurring trends amongst many clients. Those who have handled the foreclosure strategically by closely monitoring their credit and other debt are fairing much better financially after the foreclosure.

Even borrowers who opt for a short sale have seen quick restoration of their credit. San Diego Real Estate Broker, Jeff Grant can attest to his credit recovering after a short sale of his investment home which was upside down by more than $ 200K. ?After my own short sale, missing a total of 8 mortgage payments, my credit went from 729 to 679. But it quickly recovered to 728 a year and four months later!?

Following in suite, Wynn Bloch’s house in Palm Springs, CA sold at foreclosure auction in March 2010. As a result of the foreclosure, her credit score fell just 45 points – from 780 to 735. “It didn’t hurt me really at all,” Bloch stated, “In fact, I was foreclosed upon last March and just bought a new house in December!” While it may be unlikely for all defaulting homeowners to purchase a home so quickly, 51% of YouWalkAway.com clients polled do wish to purchase a new home within 5 years.

In reality, many YouWalkAway.com clients are more than happy to shed the excess baggage of their underwater homes and downsize to a rental. Nearly, 100% of clients report saving money by renting, and 52% chose to rent a house smaller than their previous one. Jon Maddux, CEO of YouWalkAway.com explains, ?Eighty-one percent of our clients have experienced no issues renting after a foreclosure or short sale. Only, 18% were asked to provide a slightly larger deposit.?

As Susan Edwards shares, “I love being at our new house. I can imagine my dogs in the yard and our family sitting at the table for Thanksgiving. Funny,” she continues, “but I’m more excited for [my new rental] than I was when we bought this house. It really is a new beginning for us.” Edwards, Romanello and Bloch are not exceptions to the rule or lucky strategic defaulters who have fallen through the credit reporting cracks. They are living proof that if homeowners continue to keep on top of other debts and their credit scores, they can rebound much faster than initially predicted.

Maddux continues, ?There has been a lot of misinformation regarding the effects foreclosure has on one?s credit. More often than not, it is those who have an agenda to deter homeowners from walking away who use scare tactic phrases such as, ?Foreclosure will destroy or decimate your credit.? Due to the nature of how credit scoring works, I prefer to describe the effects of foreclosure as wounding one?s credit. Blemishes will heal on their own as long as one continues to keep other lines of credit current. Seeing it first hand with our own YouWalkAway.com clients, a homeowner?s credit will improve over time as the delinquent payments move further into the past.”

YouWalkAway.com has added a new product designed to allow clients to monitor their credit throughout and following the foreclosure process. The goal is to eliminate borrowers? fear of credit reporting by providing direct access to their scores and lenders. Simplifying the credit score is the first step to understanding how to improve one?s own credit and ridding oneself of debt. Within this new product, homeowners are able to fix credit report errors, negotiate good will corrections, or settle debts directly with click of a button. Credit and identity protection is also available with real time alerts. With continuous monitoring of all trade lines, borrowers can take a pro-active approach to improving their credit score and eliminating their debt.

YouWalkAway.com conducts ongoing surveys with current and past customers to compile data regarding their varying views on the foreclosure process and strategic default. Through polling, YouWalkAway.com has determined the most common kinds of debt that underwater homeowners are facing, as well as strategic defaulters’ views on credit, and the process of finding a home following the foreclosure.
