I’m going after mGuanxi.com now. Check it out. I’m sending my resume and proposal tomorrow. It is the exact same proposal I gave to Richard of Jin Magazine that he rejected. Now the two want to partner which could squeeze me out. But I am still after a job with them rather than here. I am being treated too much like my job is a common commodity here in Tianjin which it is not. I hope to approach mGuanxi with the fact that I was able to make this magazine recognizable throughout the community and I want to do the same for them. This is my email to them tomorrow:
Dear Ken and Jessy,
You may not know me directly but I believe you have been talking with Don Stewart and now my boss Richard Zhang is in Shanghai soon to have a meeting with you. I want to put forth a proposal for you. I am your man in Tianjin. I have been the Chief Editor of Jin Magazine for over a year now. I am responsible for putting a ‘famous face’ of Tianjin on the cover every month as well as find the multiple stories and contacts for these stories together for the writers each month. If you like I could send you a copy of the magazine from before I started and our most recent so you can see the drastic improvement that has happened under my supervision. I have been able to carry out every task that Richard has put forth and I have added elements to the magazine that generates response from the readers.
I wish to do the same for you. I am extremely interested in your mGuanxi and believe I am one of the most beneficial people you will need to make this web and mobile service successful in Tianjin. I’m excited about the possibilities and wish to give you a business plan that could incorporate advertising into your site. This would take your site from being a social and savings media to a social savings networking utility. I proposed this to Richard and he could not see the finer details. But RMB100,000 at base is something I think worth pursuing. I’ve attached my business plan for Clickboards geared toward facilitating mGuanxi, as well as my resume for your revue. Regardless of your wish to accept my plan I would still like to take the same opportunity I did with the magazine and really add some real impact to your up and coming web portal and mobile media which is emerging in Tianjin. I have already begun to invite my friends to join my contacts on mGuanxi.
I know all the clients from Jin Magazine and deal with them directly. I am in charge of getting coupons and discounts to many places. My frame of mind around advertising is the financial aspect as I got my MBA here in Tianjin. I look forward to helping you and quite possibly introducing Clickboards to your web portal and mobile media.
For the best of your consideration,
AC Grindl
Chief Editor
Jin Magazine
