Your Data is Extremely Valuable for Marketing





Data is important in all aspects of our lives -- your personal data is estimated to be worth over US$2,000 year. It’s time to start owning it with Datum! Datum is a global data marketplace that allows you to make money from your own data. From science and technology to artificial intelligence, and even marketing, data is the main driver. In essence, we are not able to make meaningful conclusions or decisions without using data. Our computers use algorithms to compute the data we input so as to give us options. So how is data meaningful in marketing? Read on!

Datum5b.jpg

Customer Behaviour
To understand customer behaviour, we need customer data. Pertinent data could include Google searches, browsing history, and how a customer filters sorts online shopping (e.g. price range). There are many ways to learn what your user is searching for, social media likes and dislikes, and whether your user has a large budget or a small one. Therefore, marketing data informs us on how to better attract our target consumers, as well as how to produce high customer satisfaction ratings.



Improve Marketing Campaigns by Enhancing Relevance
In digital marketing, the campaigns we create target the advertising message directly to the potential consumer. To target effectively, your digital marketing strategy should be based on facts. These facts are formed using collected data, such as demographics and what internet users are looking for. Thus the marketing algorithm can deliver the advertisement to the most relevant and targeted audience.

Datum5a.jpg

Helps Control Marketing Cost
Not everyone is looking for your product. Imagine how much it would cost if everyone who is browsing clicked on your advertisement? The cost would be huge, greatly affecting your ROI and quite possibly producing a massive loss. As discussed above, by narrowing in and delivering your advertisement to a select, relevant audience, the costs of advertisement greatly decreases. Through the data collected, we are able to show advertisements to the relevant audience who has high buying potential.

Now is the time to protect your data with Datum. Datum technology allows you to backup your structured data in a secure, private, and anonymous manner, then choose who you want to share it with -- or sell it to! Investing in Datum is the smart choice. So, Save the Date: Oct 17th, 2017 is when the ICO Main Event Sale begins. It’s time to #TakeBackYourData

Business during the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival

We at Primasia would like to remind our international business partners that a major Chinese Holiday is coming, the Mid Autumn Festival also known as the Mooncake Festival. Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, which means for Western Calendars that the 2017 Mid Autumn Festival will be held on October 4th-5th, when the moon will be at its prime, shining brightest and at its fullest form. The festival was originally meant to honour your ancestors and deities; however, it’s also the perfect time for networking events which lead to magnificent business opportunities and relationships.

Have a Healthy Mid-Autumn Festival with These Tips

Mooncake is a traditional Chinese pastry eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival. This celebratory pastry can cause you to gain weight, feel sluggish and  your blood sugar to spike.  We at utime Fitness know that working out goes hand in hand with eating healthy, and so as you prepare for the all-important Mid-Autumn Festival, it is imperative to keep an eye on what you eat. Strive to eat fewer mooncakes, and keep up with your workout regime during this celebratory time.

Schneider Line-Up Fineliners & Link-It Fibre-Tip Pens : Le Luxury




Artists and writers have many different options when it comes to the pens that they will use. One of the best innovative writing brands used by successful writers, artists and professionals is Schneider Pens. You can find them in Hong Kong at Planethome (Bed & Bath) Ltd in Tsim Sha Tsui or you can always visit Le Luxury’s online eBay shops to buy these professional, high-quality pens at very affordable prices.

The tip of these pens are made using fibre which allows the ink to flow with ease- forget to put the cap back on? No problem! The does not run dry even if the cap is removed for 2-3 days! Using fibre-tip pens can significantly improve the penmanship of the individuals using them. This is due to the fact that the user has more control compared to the plastic-tip or ballpoint. In addition, it has also been proven to dry much quicker which prevents smudges or smears.

lel2.jpg

The range of fineliners manufactured by Line-up consists of more than 30 shades, available in an average pen length and a triangular rubberised barrel that enhances your grip. It also highlights a tip that measures 0.4mm that allows you to shade even the most intricate art or illustration. They are two pens combined in one; the aforementioned 0.4mm tip and the 1mm tip for colouring a larger illustration.

The 30 shades of Line-up fineliners all have distinct names that you will surely adore, including Apricot, Coral, Alaska Blue and Nautic Green. The wide selection gives you flexibility and the ability to choose the more appropriate colour for your illustration. With the smooth tip, you will be really impressed on how well they perform. They will smoothly glide across the paper and produce a consistent level of ink. Switching from the 1mm to 0.4mm tip is also very convenient which is all thanks to the unique layout of the barrel.

lel2b.jpg

Link-it pens are connected with a modular, simple click system which securely attaches the two pens together. It comes with a durable and ergonomic barrel that perfectly fits. With a simple click, you can instantly detach them and link the ends together. There are almost 500 combinations to choose from. The barrel is also rubberised that provides you an amazing grip which adds a comforting and relaxing sensation when you are writing.
