 Human Policy
Diversifying for sales by Human Resource Policy by regions, kinds of products
and seasons help our company know how to care and satisfy the need and hope
of our sales representatives. Besides the basic rights and responsibilities that all
the workforce has, the differences between lives in both regions (EU and
NAFTA), seasonal and kinds of product create the differences in salaries and
commissions every individual sale representative receives. Going into details,
until now the highest salary and the highest commission are paid for A2P2 in
UE. In the last quarter, we paid 6600Euros/ sale rep and 20/product. It is much
higher than in NAFTA. Furthermore, the expenses for workforce in the last
quarter are as approximately six times as the one in the first quarter.

Salaries and commissions are not the only thing showing our care for company’s
workforce. Two meetings a year and some celebrities are organized to create the
play ground for all members of company. The purposes of them are to help sales
representatives can create new relationship with other sales reps in different
regions and get more information about the sales all over the world by exchange
experiences together. This gets results more than our expectation in the past and
is going to be promoting wider in the future.

Furthermore, “the seller of the year” is the annual reward to commend and
reward the best sales representative who has the highest number of sold products
in a year. The award has excited and encouraged sale reps and create good
competitive environment them to promote better and better.

All of the events mentioned before is lead to the main purpose of our company –
the more satisfied customers feel, the more developed our company is.

SOME SPECIAL EVENTS

 In Q1-2010, Happy Valentine day: “Connect


yours Hearts” program was taken place – Products of
Aphrodite will be advertised in some cinemas on
Valentine Day. Moreover, couples will receive
cinema tickets when buying products of Aphrodite on
this special occasion. :” Present voucher or couple
ticket to see astronomy, gift boxes or underwear,
watch, rings…
This is the first marketing event to break into
markets and we had great consequences. This did
have a big impact on our sales and assumed the
majority of the sales in NAFTA with 44% market
share of aftershave for men and 25% market share of
perfumes for women while the percent of aftershave
was 38% and perfume was 17% in EU.

 In Q2-2011, we
held some Summer
Beach events in both
areas for Aftershave
products with sporty
manner (example:
beach soccer or water
surfing…) and Beach
Parties where David
Beckham was our
ambassador in order
to keep loyalty of
customers and
retailers. These
events really made
good impression to
our customer. At the
end of Q2-2011, we
captured 18% of
market share in EU
and NAFTA with
increasing net sales
Page 22

 Every year, we specially


focused on Women Day and Mother
Day to promote our fragrances. In
these occasions, we gave to
customers vouchers to Thailand or
tickets to use SPA services.

 In Q3-2011, we advertised
our perfumes in New York and
Milan, where are the capitals of
fashion of NAFTA and EU. In these
fashion shows, we invited some
celebrities such as Britney
Spears to introduce perfume
products. Present fragrance to
retailers and other customers

 “Santa’s Gifts” program for


any perfumes in any area (NAFTA
or EU) from Dec 1st to Dec 31st
in 2010, our customer received a
luxurious gift box and a
Christmas card with best wishes
from the company…
Besides, they had discount 10-15%
and opportunities to lucky
lottery.
Thanks to this program, our
market share in EU increased
sharply, from 18% in Q3 to 45% in
Q4.
Page 23

 Every year in December, we hold up a White Party which is an


fundraiser party for homeless children. The party required all guest
have to dress in white. There had been some famous people attendance to
contribute for orphanages and homeless people.
This event was followed by the “White Dreams” program which was hold
to raise the fund for homeless children in both areas, thanks to the
help of Bill Gates.
We were appreciated by customer through years and they also bought our
products to contribute to this program.
Page 24

Marketing Development
Fragrance industry is always a high risk industry with high pressure from new
products and trends of customers. With experience of ourselves, we create products
with specific quality, scent and style for each kinds of product, and we are always
trying to improve all faces in order to meet customer needs.

As quoted vision and mission, we have been making innovative products and
always maintaining our Quality Control at the high levels since starting quarters. At
first, it made our cost greater. However, by applying advanced technological
scientific methods, we have created advantages for our products and our firm. High
Quality Control with pointed actions in marketing plan, it help us creating the
customers’ trust and loyalty clients.

Setting price is very important issue. We have set suitable prices for each segment,
for each product range, and for each country. In comparison with our competitors’
prices, our prices are competitive. The variation in price of each product is based on
company’s strategy and segment. For instance, we focus Challenger on middle
class or below, so Challenger’s price is usually the lowest in comparison with
competitors’. Otherwise, Tiamo’s price is highest price because we focus it on high
- end class. However, with the desire to create a breakthrough in the industry and
having new advantages, we have some changes in our strategies. Specifically, at the
end of year 2010 to now, we improved our product, spent more on Advertising
budget, increased Sale reps team etc to encourage customers’ wish, to meet their
need etc. Therefore, we push price of Challenge up to $144.

Our marketing decisions depended on each quarter and related conditions. In


future, we always strive to get higher levers. Making our products to high – class
ones is our vital goals.
Page 25

Future Events

Sales Forecast
According to The Boss, the cosmetics market in the developed countries should
achieve sustainable growth. Firstly because of the arrival of new consumers, and
secondly because penetration rates in some markets, even in Western Europe
and North America, still offer very significant growth prospects. Perfumes are a
25 billion dollar industry, yet are one of the poorest performing sectors of the
cosmetics industry. The fragrance market is stagnating and is cluttered with
new scent products which mean there is no longer any brand loyalty. Consumers
jump with speed to the latest new 'designer perfume' product.

Latest research from Euro monitor suggests the men’s and women’s fragrance
market grew year on year by 4.95%. Women’s premium fragrances performed
even better, up 8.5%. These rates will be 5% /year for men’s fragrance market
and 9%/year for women’s fragrance market.

Among our products, TIAMO is very popular in the area of Europe, it's about
revenue and profits highest. Challenger, Hi! Sweety, Gentil are profitable goods.
They are continuing to expect in the future. Therefore, we are improving
technology and budget on all products.

With all information we have from the market trend, Q1-2013 demand is
anticipated to be similar to Q4-2012 demand levels. Q1-2013 forecasts need
only to seasonally adjust the Q4-2012 data and with that data in hand,
incorporate the expected results of management’s changes in its competitive
marketing program.

Capital Structure
When our company
set up in 2010, we
issued 350.000 shares
and used a short-
term loan to operate.

But with our


guessing, interest was
increased, we
decided to issue bond
and repurchase shares
to make sure enough
money for operating,
investing. Issuing
bond made our debt
ratio rise suitable.

In the end of quarter 1, 2013, available cash for operation is 4,495,228 USD.
The number cash is sufficient to pay finished good for next quarter.

In next quarter, we will not use short term or long term debt. In our plan, we
are going to repurchase about 400000 USD bond and continue plan in next
two year.

You can see structure capital in the end of quarter 1, 2013 is below. Similar
with years before, we will maintain debt ratio in about safe number (from 0.1
to 0.6)

Economic Development
Economic expert were stated that economy have been bright with positive
economic numbers – both economic index and consumer confident index
have been upward despite recession in 2011.

Economic index, overall, fluctuated upward and hit highest point of 112 in
quarter 1 year 2013. Business people and economists, now, are expecting
wealthy development in following years.

Consumer confident index was lightly different from economic index. Its
trend was unpredictable. Generally, it depended on economic trend. For
instant, in 2011, because of recession, increase in inflation and financial
issues, consumers have cut down their expenditure. However, although year
2012 was recovering year with glad economic index, there was still slight
fall about 8 point from 148 point to 140 point in quarter 4 of 2012. To
understand clients is difficulty. Most of companies are try their best to meet
the customers’ unpredictable needs. Governments of both NAFTA and EU
have been solving their bad debts, controlling inflation rates finding
solutions for new power resources.

government to create better operating environment on the other are hand
in hand with government to deal with alarming issues and find good way
to cut down manufacture cost, to increase product values. By that ways,
the index is hoped upward trends.

Stock Market got good development. Analysts and political leaders were
pleased to see the T-Bill rate hold steady at 0.0552 per annum. After
remaining at 0.0300 for 2011 and 2012, T-Bill rate has been expecting to
settle around 5% to 6% for 2013. Both T-Bill rate and Prime rate have
had upward move for three years. Although financial factors are under
control of Central Bank and Government, people are concerning about
the interest rate and money policies. Business should have well –
prepared strategies including back – up strategies in case the capital cost
increase in future.

The Euro – Dollar exchange has been moving stably around 1.00, and “The
Euro – Dollar moved slightly but no cause was determined outside of random
movements”

change significantly for their periods. Therefore, new technologies in
conjunction with the new global financial and product markets will definitely
require new forms of thinking, strategy and behavior from management.
