DubLi and the London Stock Exchange

February 26, 2008 | By DubLicator In Dubli Shares, The DubLi Marketing Plan | Comments(1)

 

DubLi Ecommerce & Online Trading is preparing its public listing on the London Stock Exchange towards the middle of this year, 2008.

A big and extremely exciting step ahead for DubLi.com… now let’s look at what this actually means. Not everybody is familiar with stocks and shares, however, as independent business owners and possibly even as DubLi Share holders, let’s look at the facts for a better understanding of what is happening right now and which high requirements are involved.

 

First of all, we need to know that the LSE - London Stock Exchange - is the most important exchange within Europe and, with its many listed companies from various countries, one can say probably the most international in the world.
 

The LSE basically consists of two different stock markets:

1. the Main Market, which is exclusively for established companies with top performance. Currently there are about 1,800 LSE company listings with a total market capitalization of over 3,500 billion. 
Accordingly, the listing requirements are extremely strict, namely:
 
> a minimum market capitalization (£700,000),
> three years of audited financial statements,
> minimum public float (25 per cent) and …
> sufficient working capital for at least 12 months from the date of listing.
 

  

2. the Alternative Investment Market (AIM), where we find new companies or enterprises with the potential of substantial growth… and where one could imagine a company like DubLi.com
To compare with the Main Market: here over 1,600 companies list with a total capitalization of 37 billion.
 
Why would DubLi want to go to the London Stock Exchange?
 
The answer and most important reason is that… to expand and grow exponentially, DubLi needs to raise new capital. The way to do this is via a Stock Exchange where capital is raised through the sales of shares, i.e. the public investing in DubLi Shares.
 
As such, DubLi would be creating an investment opportunity that’s open also to small investors - meaning a way for normal people to make money with DubLi. Big business normally requires a huge capital outlay, however when buying shares investors can decide on the number of shares they can afford. This keeps the money ‘flowing’ and not hidden away in idle savings deposits which doesn’t really contribute to a stronger economic growth. On the other hand, listed companies will now have to perform to satisfy the demands of their shareholders - resulting in the positive case in hiqher efficiency and future growth.
 
While this is only an assumption on my part, I believe AIM - as the leading global growth market - is the right place for DubLi as it’s a rather young, ambitious and venture capital-backed start-up company striving for global expansion. Since its launch in 1995, capital raisings through AIM have helped many different sorts of companies to follow their Business development plans successfully and even make a transition to the Main Market at a later stage.
 
It is important to note the more flexible approach for joining AIM when comparing with the Main market requirements. Most importantly and due to the fact that we are dealing with new and smaller companies, these don’t need a specific financial track record or trading history. There is also no minimum requirement in terms of size or number of shareholders.


While AIM is an interesting market to observe and invest in, the role of specialist nominated advisers - called ‘Nomads’ - plus brokers, lawyers, accountants etc is crucial to its success.

 

To get an idea of the admission process DubLi would be going through,  let’s look at the admission criteria for joining AIM in general: 

  • No minimum size of company
  • No minimum proportion of shares to be in public hands
  • No trading record requirement
  • No prior shareholder approval for the majority of transactions
  • No restrictions on the transferability of the company’s shares*
  • No requirement to be incorporated in the United Kingdom

However…. and this is crucial: 

The main requirement is that a company coming to AIM must have a "Nomad" - a Nominated Adviser - at all times. Therefore, once a company has decided to seek a quotation on AIM, the first and most important step would be to choose and appoint a Nomad and then engage a number of other market specialists to help you through the application process, eg. a broker (which may be the same firm as your Nomad), law firm and public relations (PR) and investor relations (IR) adviser.

The next step woud then be to complete admission documentation and provide supporting details about your company’s directors, financial position and business activities. This entire operation is done in a controlled way in close consultation with your Nomad at all times.

The Admission Timetable for a company’s flotation on AIM offers an interesting insight into the three major phases following various steps and their exact order, to be taken to complete the  process.

Example quoted from www.londonstockexchange.com :

Pre-flotation Preparation

  • Ensure contracts are in place with customers and suppliers

6-12 months before admission

  • Review and plan your investor relations (IR) strategy
  • Ensure you have independently-audited financial accounts, if applicable, for a three-year period
  • Consider commissioning an independent expert’s report on your business 
  • Make any necessary changes to the executive board
  • Appoint non-executive directors
  • Ensure your company is incorporated under the relevant laws
  • Consider whether to conduct pre-flotation fundraising 
  • Decide on the method of flotation
  • Hold a beauty parade of advisers

This gives all those interested in the DubLi Business Development as well as those directly involved as DubLi Business Associates and/or DubLi Share Holders, a pretty clear understanding of the straight-forward yet complex process DubLi may be going through right now.

It is indeed exciting also from the perspective of the learning experience - and let’s keep fingers crossed that all requirements are met within the set timeframe!

DubLi SmartWin Auctions: How much can I bid?

February 18, 2008 | By DubLicator In DubLi Auctions, The DubLi Marketing Plan | Comments(0)

Firstly, you need to be a DubLi Member. Simply click on "REGISTER NOW" and follow the instructions. As a gift you will receive your first 3 FREE BIDS! Up to you to turn them into gold now!
 

Important: once registered, please set up your account in your DubLi Back Office, especially insert your payment details there. To buy bids for the SmartWin Auction you need to ensure that you can pay using either your Credit Card or pre-payment transfer. 

The cost of each bid is 0.50 Euro, however, you may choose from the following DubLi Bid Packages: 

0.50 euro =       1 bid
5 euro     =     10 bids
10 euro   =     20 bids
20 euro   =     40 bids +  2 free bids
50 euro   =   100 bids + 10 free bids
100 euro =   200 bids + 30 free bids
250 euro =   500 bids + 100 free bids
500 euro = 1000 bids + 250 free bids

The twist with SmartWin Auctions is… that the lowest, unique (exclusive) bid wins. When bidding, you may use any number of 10 cent units (e.g. 1 Euro, 2.10 Euro, 3.90 Euro…). The user placing the lowest exclusive bid has won. Here’s an example:

 
How does it work?
As you can see, several people have bid on 1.00, 2.00, 3.30, 4.40 and 5.00 Euro.

However, on 3.30 and 4.40 Euro there is only 1 bid each.
Now, as 3.30 is the lowest and exclusive bid, it will win the auction.
 
IF however someone else bids on 3.30 EUro before the Auction ends, it would no longer be an exclusive bid and in that case the bidder offering 4.40 Euro would be the winner, because his bid is now the lowest, unique (exclusive) bid.
If an auction does not result in a unique bid at its expiration date, then the auction starts again and noone has won in this ’round’. If there is a unique bid at the end, the winner with the lowest unique (exclusive) bid is determined and then informed by e-mail. The winner can then order and pay the auctioned item in his member area (the prices incl. VAT/Sales Tax, plus forwarding expenses).
 
Delivery:
According to normal payment procedure, the articles or goods are shipped as soon as payment has been duly received.

So what you do is place your bid. After each successful bid you are informed if you have submitted an exclusive and/or lowest bid or not. You can also check your bidding status by looking in your member area in your DubLi back office. If you are underbid at a later point in time, you will, of course, be notified by e-mail and can place another bid, in order to improve your chances.

The best way to understand the principle is by starting with your 3 FREE BIDS that you receive as a gift from your sponsor when you register! As it’s still early days chances are outstanding to win! Just go for it! GOOD LUCK!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

DubLi Network: Renew or Upgrade?

February 13, 2008 | By DubLicator In DubLi Network, The DubLi Marketing Plan | Comments(1)

 

The DubLiNetwork Marketing Plan requires that all DubLi Business Associates pay an annual renewal or maintenance fee of 150 Euro. According to the official DubLi Registration page this is independent of whether a Bronze, Silver or Gold Membership package is bought.

 
As the new packages - Bronze, Silver and Gold - were only introduced on 5th January 2008, all current Business Associates were automatically promoted to BRONZE Membership.

The hot JANUARY 2008 PROMO offered all Business Associates the unique once-off opportunity to upgrade to SILVER or GOLD at a super discount - never mind at what time they joined DubLiNetwork. For all those who grabbed this chance, a 12 months renewal round was simply added to their current membership duration. Said in clear DubLi terms: "The new maintenance period will start when your current maintenance period ends."

 

DEADLINE FOR RENEWALS

 
Everyone who acquired a DubLi Business License before 1st March 2007 - and who did not go for the Upgrade Promo in January 2008 - is therefore due for renewal. The absolute deadline for your payment via Credit Card, Bank transfer or Commissions ( if sufficient funding is available to cover the full 150 Euros) is the 29th February, 2008. Please don’t miss it in order to keep your license active.
 
According to the DubLi Policies & Procedures, DubLi is entitled to withdraw the maintenance fee of 150 Euros from your DubLi Commissions account if you forget to pay and…. provided there is sufficient funding and…. - of course - no letter of resignation received prior to the renewal date.
 
HOW TO RENEW?
 
Simply log into your DubLiNetwork Back Office and click on "MY BACKOFFICE" at the top menu, and then on "My Profile" on the left menu.
 
You should immediately see your status in form of a little icon ( yellow for Team members, red for Team Leader, pink for Team Coordinator, green for Sales Director and blue for Vice President ).
 
Next to this icon you will see a silver circle with horizontal bars - one bar for BRONZE and two bars for SILVER Membership as an example. I recommend you go to this place immediately and control your status! Make sure you see who you are !!!
 
Underneath, you see "Days left till renewal" and a timeline indicating how much time is left for your renewal if you haven’t done it yet (or upgraded).
 
To RENEW click the tab and follow the upcoming instructions and make a proof of it. It’s early days and many new elements are being integrated and changed daily - no easy job at all! As Business Owners its our responsibility to keep good records of our business at all times.
 
 
RENEWAL OR UPGRADE?
 
The answer is simple: how important is your DubLi Ecommerce business for you and where do you want to take it? How much Money do you want to make with DubLi? If you only renew for 150 Euros, you keep your position and lciense alive for another year - great! You may just be interested in the networking aspect and that is perfectly fine. However, you need to be aware that you won’t get any DubLi Credits which are meant to finance your SHOP choices or SmartWin Reverse Auction Biddings - including great ways to promote your business. So it’s entirely your decision; you are the boss!
 
Go to DubLi License Renewal 2008 for a reminder of what you get for the various options and make your choice from your DubLiNetwork Back Office as explained above.
 
TIP: while you are here, and if you have a Network of Business Associates already, check your Downline and ensure their status is correct. Communicate and offer your assistance - it’s the best way to bond and grow future business together. This business is for the long run… everything of value takes time.
 
 
BRAND-NEW DUBLI BUSINESS ASSOCIATES PLEASE NOTE:
Some Business Associates who joined within the recent ‘transition period’ (Bronze Members), might see a page where they can upgrade to either Silver or Gold membership by paying the difference. The maintenance period will stay the same. If you upgrade, you will also receive the DubLi Credits included in the new package (minus the Credits you have already received).
 
ADVICE:
Don’t put yourself under stress! Do at all times what feels good and right for you and then stick to it.
 
RENEWAL is not a question - it’s a no-brainer… an UPGRADE can be done at any time!

Most importantly: make sure you don’t miss the RENEWAL DATE (29 February 2008) and let’s look forward to PROSPERITY 2008 using all the great Team Building Tools, Educational material and Marketing strategies offered by YCADEMY & YORGOO !
