8

August 01, 2006

Today is the 1st day of the 8th month, for me my favorite number is 8, and my lucky number is 8, I said to myself, I hope this day is a lucky day for me. And I guess heaven heard my prayers, I’m so happy to see Beach Hut sunblocks displayed already on every Circle K branch that me and Sam visits, Circle K gave us 35 stores to deliver the stocks but Sam said he only delivered to 28 branches, coz the other 7 branches doesn’t have sunblocks, and it’s useless to display sunblocks there, and very far from the beaches, anyway, we visited 19 stores today, it’s a very tiring day but my tiredness is no match for the great feeling I have every time I see Beach Hut inside a Circle K store. I can say Beach Hut is really International now!!! Can’t believe it, we only launched the product January of 2006 in the Philippines and July we are already International, Wahoo!!!!

Before finishing our visit to Circle K stores, I told Sam to visit Ripcurl branch in Kuta Square, coz I have an appointment with their management and so that he can also meet them, and when we are there, we are so lucky that all the managers of all the Ripcurl branches are also there, I presented my final proposal and they approved it! I can’t explain my feeling that time; they said we can start delivering stocks tomorrow, so I asked Sam to do the delivery tomorrow so that Ripcurl can start selling Beach Hut Sunblocks! After here we went to other Circle K stores to continue distributing flyers and checking on the stocks, I’m really so happy today, I hope this will be a good sign, 1st day of the 8th month, my favorite number and my lucky number. I hope my lucky days won’t stop!!!! Hehehehe…
