TITLE:BRITISH PRODUCTS LEAD VITALITY SHOW LONDON 31 MARCH 2008:Our bit starts from 01:47sec or just about and continues.

I was a bit nervous !!!!

Self promotion is not that bad ey!

This is purely self promotion! sometimes it helps to count your blessings.

And everything else will follow. Especially now that everything is happening at the same time.

Presently things are hotting up! apart from the WuChi black box under way- see previous post

We are preparing for 2 prestigious health & beauty exhibitions where our products will be show cased

(1) The vitality show 27th-30th March 2008

Olympia, Kensington London

Stand A267a http://www.thevitalityshow.co.uk/

(2) Natural & Organic products Europe

13th-14th April 2008

Olympia, Kensington, London

Stand 1143 http://www.naturalproducts.co.uk/

Same venue and only a week apart. If only after the first event things stay the same and we just stroll in a week after to continue from where we stopped. I hear you say "you wish" yeap absolutely.

I love challenges and besides events like this are a big learning curve for me to keep abreast with the Skincare and cosmetic industry. You have to know what is happing in the market otherwise take a hike.

Give you an example- Following the first ever exhibition at the Natural and organic products Europe exhibition in less than a year we re-branded about 13 of our products, We changed the packaging ASAP to conform with the luxurious, sophisticated, clean, stylish but simplicity of our image. It is not that the jars were not fantastic - it's just that We are WuChi

I say its been absolutely worth it and it is called Branding to the T ( Knowing what you want)

WuChi at the- Screen Nation Awards Oct 2007

WuChi by Maks will be at the indulge lounge of the screen Nation film & TV awards this year taking place on the 15th of October 2007 at the Hilton London Metrople W2.

Honouring Morgan Freeman and a whole lot of celebrities and Artist including Tandi Newton, Moira Stewart, Chiwetal Ejiofor, Naomie Harris, Sopie Okenedo.

For more information on the event visit http://www.screennation.co.uk/

I will keep you updated on the event and the celebrities we will be meeting on the day plus how the indulge lounge will function on the day.

I am really excited but also am not sure what to expect or how the event will turn out. To tell the truth i don't know some of the celebrities who will be there by name or face ( i don't watch East Enders, i don't watch Coronation street, or Emmerdale) i think there should be more to life than existing in one place, growing old and not seeing the world. The whole scenario of being in one square ( seems to apply to all of them) bores me to bit. There's more to life than the circle turning round too quickly.

But never the less, am sure they are all fantastic programmes of which i haven't got a hang of, having moved here not to long ago. Although, i have enjoyed some fab programmed on telly, like Tribe, Sir David Attenbrough's deep blue Ally Macbeal... ("American", i know) and host of others. 'Am really trilled to be part of this event and look forward to it.

Latest exhibition updates to be added shortly!

Stand at the Asianlifestyle show Olympia Kensington July 6-8th 2007

Hello everyone thank you all for your comments and feed backs. As expected since the apandc.co.uk one day,one stop luxury press expo on 4 th July 2007 there is so much to talk about but i didn't get a chance as immediately after, the

Asianlifestyleshow http://www.asianlifestyleshow.com/ followed starting from 6th,7th & 8th of july 2007, just one day between the two shows to prepare and put finishing touches to everything.

Just a sneak preview i uploaded my picture today which was taken by a photography studio at the asianlifestyle show imagesxcel photographic studios Belgravia, really nice except that it reminds me to go easy on carbs before my belly outgrows me ouch!

The bad bit of the Asian lifestyle show - apparently Someone stole my PDA phone

( O2XDA mini ) from my stand. what a way to end a three day event.

I know i will not get it back but hey we learn everyday don't we.

I will keep you updated as soon as i follow up all the press contacts.

WuChi by Maks Stall in Spitalfields Market 2007

Been over 3 weeks since I finished uni yeepeeee! how time flies 3years of absolute hovering of books and information with exam frights and course work deadlines to meet I am glad it is all over for this chapter. Shola's been home with me 24/7 since then because has officially finished from nursery and due to start in reception class in September. Got extra hands to help ( if only)

Things are hotting up ! Business is really slow but there is always good news and feedback from people who have tried or bought anything.

I have plunged my self into looking for ways to create more awareness and develop my customer base, i decided to post a comment/reply on the everywomanwebsite (http://www.everywoman.co.uk/- online forum for women in business) in a bid to get out there, although the comment was for a free marketing plan from redpetal.co.uk and lo and behold i had a fantastic free concise marketing plan written for me based on questionnaire and information i provided. Who says networking is not a good thing.

Following the good service ( free) I received I definitely will use their service again ( keep u posted on this) .

Instead of sitting around for people to come and buy my products i decided to take the products to the people to create awareness, free testers and information available i choose the one and only New spitalfieds traders market ( Friday 22.june .2007) - see http://www.spitalfields.co.uk/ due to the history of the market, the ambiance of the market and the quality of products available in the market as bespoke, designers and handmade.See my table display above - first day minimal I had Shin (husband)  and Shola (Son)  for support.

I enjoyed it we had tea from the tea house, my stand was just inches away from their entrance, Apparently, the usual tiny cup of tea cost £3.50 but you sat down and watched your tea prepared form different aromatic herbs whilst you listened to them tell you about  the history of tea.

Apart form the Boston tea party history and green tea for antioxidants, peppermint for full moon days that's it for me.

New things that have happened

1. Redesigned price list
2. Redesigned order form
3. Designed a point of sale Leaflet for display
4. Awaiting Banner
5. Changed oil bottles to be more user friendly

New things about to happen

1. See us at the asianlifestyleshow (http://www.asianlifestyleshow.com/) 0n6,7,8th July 2007
2. A one day, one stop luxury press expo 4th july 2006 in London http://www.apandc.co.uk/

So its busy weeks ahead, apart form all these I will be at the Spitalfields traders market from wed 27- Friday 29 June 2007 I will keep you updated.

Pictures from Exhibition

Our First Exhibition Success

its been a weeks since our first exhibition at the Natural & Organic products Europe at the Olympia London 15-16Th April. A 2 day packed event with the whole industry it was a successful event and an eye opener too. Especially for a first timer!

Events leading to the exhibition are worth sharing,

first it was the labels- and second its the labels again, with the discovery of some of the labels running in steamy environment, we decided to start all over by condemning all the thousands of labels we already have and got new ones printed. amazing how at the very last minute i found us a printing company who are not only printers but do everything else. check them out as they are a wonderful business http://www.printorama.com/( Holloway road branch by the way )

Now the labels are reprinted on the finest water resistant labels and we are so happy we did it, we printed them out, with a letter to everyone who purchased products, included VIP tickets to the event for them plus a letter telling them of the new discovery with the labels, how sorry we were and how we have sorted all that out, although its not all the labels that are affected, but not to take any chances we decided to reprint it all and send it out to everyone. peace of mind anyone.

Still on the labels- Now we have what we want- proper water resistant labels, but the problem was we had to cut them our selves loads and loads of them,

Poor S he was eating drinking and breathing labels, i almost guessed he was dreaming labels as he walked about, it was so much labels to cut, and still is we had to ask for help from our dear friends who are so sweet and supportive, they came to the house and label cutting it was, thanks to them, with steady hands V saved the day, i felt really bad when our dear friend drove an hour leaf the rest of the family cutting labels to go and get us a guillotine to make the cutting easier for us. if only they know what this meant to us and we will ever cherish this gesture not forget what great support this is.

will continue with more of the update latter got to go now----
