Dear Business Partners,
We would like to draw your attention to the structure of Curepink distribution s.r.o. activities as well as introduce in detail our
individual activities and work in general. Since we care for better business relationship with your company or would like to establish
new business partner-ship for the future. I would like to shed some light on the current situation in the Czech market. I would also
like to describe our business activities and marketing problems in more detail, as well as suggest some new perspective solutions
and ways to increase our trade and business. The same applies in case we address your company for the first time. We would like
to make a short introduction of our company. Furthermore, we wish to supply you with comprehensive and objective information in
order for you to decide that we really are the true partner for future co-operation.
I. THE HISTORY OF CURE PINK DISTRIBUCE S.R.O./DISTRIBUTION
Our company has existed since 1992, when it began to run traditional music shops. In 1997 we transformed into distributive
/ wholesale company and since 1999 we have also run our own mail-order business and an e-shop. Each of the
mentioned methods of sale has certain rules and limitations as far as the choice of goods is considered. It is according to individual
ways of sale that the suitable products from individual labels, firms and suppliers are chosen and the below mentioned marketing
means are applied.
Constantly growing number of activities have driven our company forward again last year and we are going
to move to a new site. We believe that this will allow us better logistic conditions for storing and the goods
expedition, next to the enlargement of the regular staff. These benefits should help to provide better service to
the suppliers and higher turnovers.
Our new address:
Curepink distribuce s.r.o.
Bajgarova 693
725 26 Ostrava – Krásné Pole
Czech Republic
VAT number: CZ25874560

we expect that the move will be finished in March 2009.

thousands pieces per a single title. They print about 6 catalogues per year, the validity of which is 2 months.

goods and 60 days maturity.

Very tight relations between the Czech and Slovak economy led to the fact that we directly supply several outlets in Slovakia.
Our goods are sold at the hand of the distribution company
EMI-Monitor (see the article 4) to Slovakia.
9, Other Marketing Services offered to our
Partners and Suppliers
We arrange reviews in music periodicals/magazines on condition

activities to support the sale of new titles and interprets. All is directed
by the estimated commercial result of sale.
We mediate licenses from our partner companies to the publishers
of music periodicals/magazines to publish promotional and free
presentation CDs and DVDs which are enclosed to magazines or used
as presents to business partners.
This is in fact another powerful means of promotion of your
products.
Currently we have started to concentrate on providing licenses for CD producing, which are later sold for a reasonable price as
magazine and newspaper enclosures
V. CRITERIA DECISIVE FOR CHOOSING GOODS AND BUSINESS PARTNERS / SUPPLIERS
The respective paragraphs present a description of the major problems and limitations to be met by the product so that it may be
marketed by us in the manner concerned with the maximum efficiency.
This should apply to goods available on a long-term basis, with guaranteed prices and delivery terms.
Due dates to our customer: the due dates are usually extended to 30-60 days in selling campaigns in the CR, 90 days with budget
products (mainly hypermarkets).
The right of return of unsold goods by our customer: has a psychological effect on our customers eliminating their fear and distrust
arising from the risk of unsold goods and illiquid/frozen stock reserves. At the same time it stands for a convenient marketing tool
to support sales of goods of new firms and/or interprets and the rise of the sales of priority news. Traders in the Czech Republic
react very positively to the possibility of the right of return and this method is largely spread by majors. To be able to meet the
7
competition, we are forced to offer the same conditions to our customers. What is more, this method of sale enables the customer
to get familiar with new goods and persuades him/her of the interest in the products.
Our experience shows that the amount of returned goods is very low and a significant part of goods is always successfully sold. We
further attempt to sell the returned goods in the home market. It is only after all the possibilities of sale have been exhausted that
we employ the right of return to the supplier abroad.
Moreover, if we are enabled to have the goods on our stock in the sufficient amount, we are able to work up all the necessary
details (picture, tracks, reviews etc.) for internet presentation and other offers.
In case other distribution companies are employed to sells our goods it is necessary to keep in mind that all goods they receive
from us guarantees the possibility of 100% right of return. They report which items have been sold at the end of every month,
settling the respective payments in 30 days. Therefore, we need the maturity of 60 days on this goods.
Only items from our store or those that can be purchased promptly without any problems may be included in our mail catalogues
or on e-shop/other e-shop partners, with the decisive criterion for inclusion being the term of delivery to our customer. Long terms
of delivery are not acceptable for this method of sale.
VI. SETTLEMENT OF GENERAL BUSINESS CONDITIONS
1. Price
1 EUR
CZK 26.50
1 USD
CZK 20.00
1 GBP
CZK 30.50
The following exchange rates (valid as at 1 January 2008) apply to all the
quoted prices:
Retail Price Calculation:
When calculating our distribution price for dealers or our end price for customers using our
mail-order service, we use the
following formula:
1
PPD purchasing price
2
+ price for transportation + 5 %
3
+ Curepink profit 35 %
4
+ retail shop 25 to 30 %, distribution company 15-20 %, EMI-Mnitor 35%
5
+ (costs of promotion and catalogues 10 to 15%) we add this sum only in case of
priority titles and novelties.
6
+ 19 % VAT (Mwst)
If we sell the goods directly to the
end customer via the mail-order
service, the required Curepink
profit is the sum of numbers 3, 4
and 5, i.e. 45 to 65 %.
This sum also covers the production costs of the Info Music mail-order catalogue as well as the mailing costs so that we could
distribute the catalogue free.
One copy of a 72-page catalogue costs EUR 0.50 and the postage is EUR 0.30. The print run varies from 15,000 - 20,000.
In addition to the price of goods, the postage and packaging price should also be taken into consideration with the mail-order
service. It makes CZK 100 to 120 (i.e. EUR 3.50 to 4.50) for a standard consignment in the Czech Republic.
2. Payment Terms
One of the most important aspects of the business co-operation.
Our foreign partners usually offer us terms of payment depending on insurance companies. Their terms of payment are shorter
than the terms of our local suppliers.
Concerning our long-term local partners we require the maturity at minimum 30 days, but usually it is 60
days, hypermarkets insist on 90 days. The same situation happens with budget companies, we accept their
goods on our stock with 100% return rights only, as well as in case of newly introduced companies where
the return rights in the amount of 100% is compulsory. The goods intended to be distributed through EMIMonitor and other mail-order companies must fulfill the condition of 60 days maturity.
8
We accept advance payments for goods with the first delivery from new suppliers on provision that we get a discount of 3 to 5 %,
which is a common arrangement.
Just for your information, I can confirm that the term of payment is 45 to 60 days with all our domestic majors.
We underwent the Insurance company verification many times and we appeared to be sufficiently valuable partner.
3. Promptness of Fulfilling Orders and Frequency of Orders
As it has been described elsewhere, the promptness at satisfying the customer is one of the key issues in the mail-order business.
That is why we prefer a co-operation with firms whose catalogues enable us to enter goods into our offers regularly and repeatedly
and to order goods permanently, e.g. on a one or two-week basis.
To ensure quick delivery of the orders we prefer those suppliers who are compliant to sell us the goods with the return rights after
the termination of the marketing campaigns. In the moment of an active marketing or presentation on the web we have everything
on stock and we are able to satisfy promptly all the demands.
4. Goods Return Option
As described already in other parts of this presentation, the possibility to return the unsold goods or goods unsalable by our partner
after the termination of a campaign has an enormous influence on our mutual business. Moreover, some of the sale channels have
this inevitable condition to enlist a product into their database to offer it and sell it. The current situation in our market requires such
a support for the sale and it is slowly becoming an average standard in our country, so producers and labels already offer such a
condition to their distributors and sellers automatically.
If we want to be competitive with your products in our market, it is an essential condition to realize interesting turnovers and
remarkable orders. The average amount of the returns does not exceed 25-35%.
The goods are returned via regular post or the DHL We bear the expenses for the freight.
5. Transport
We accept shipment ex-works, freight forward, as customary.
After sending an order, we insist on a prompt confirmation about a receipt of the order and next, the information about dispatching
of the goods, or picking by a forwarder ordered in the Czech Republic.
We deserve the copy of the invoice and a delivery note per email in advance.
We use well-established firms for the transport of goods DHL or DPD.
1. Either you order a forwarder and add the price for the transport on the invoice,
2. Alternatively, we arrange a forwarder DHL in our country and he/she picks up the goods at your warehouse.
In such a case, we need the exact address of the warehouse per e-mail, the name of the contact person, telephone number
and his or her email. Also, we need a reliable information when the goods is going to be ready to be picked up.
At the first shipment, it is always useful to inform us, what would be the price for the freight if you pay for it in your country
and add it on the invoice. Comparing two prices we would have chance to decide which is cheaper.
6. Information Service, Communication
When choosing our business partners, we also take into consideration the flexibility and quickness of a respective firm at executing
our orders and claims as well as their ability and readiness to communicate in general.
9
Information services, ability and readiness to flexibly react to our requests, suggestions or demand belong to conditions which are
good and beneficial for business. Our foreknowledge of new releases as well as catalogues and samples sent to us are also very
important and influence our cooperation.
The communication is realized with the help of an independent translator.
Therefore, we prefer e-mail communication addressed on
[email protected]
In case of an urgent matter, feel free to contact the owner of the company Mr. David Stift on the phone.
7. Frequency and Dealing with of Claims
Of course, for a long time we have to follow the quality of your products and the range of claims. Willingness to solve the claims
and supply errors reminders has a remarkable influence on our relationships as well.
We always require a credit note for the undelivered goods.
Regarding damaged goods, we collect them and make a list once or twice a year to send you for approval. After that, we send the
goods back on request by a post. If you do not request them to be sent back, it is cut away in our company and we request the
credit note.
We usually send back the claims with sending back some returns.
8. Promotion and Support
Feel free to send us samples directly to our warehouse, or in case we need them for our partners they can be added to a regular
shipment with goods.
Samples are necessary for reviews in magazines (usually 1-3 pieces), for EMI-Monitor sales people (in average 3 pieces) or for
mail order catalogues (always 1 per every title enlisted into the partner’s catalogue)
VII. TRADING PROCEDURE SCHEDULE FOR NEW PARTNERS
1. Introduction of your catalogue
If you are a new firm getting in contact with us, please send us your offer of items.
The best combination is:
- to send a printed version of your catalogue by post;
- to send your catalogue in the electronic form DBF/Excel
this, in comparison with copying the data manually from a printed
catalogue, will substantially speed up putting your items into our electronic
system.
- to inform us on your www pages.
2. Negotiation of General Terms of Business
See article VI.
3. Provision of Samples; First Order
To be able to process a product, we must be provided, after the general terms of business have been settled, with samples of the
items to be processed.
- you can either send them to us automatically based on your choice and definition of top items or
preferences; or
- we will order the items according to our ideas and needs.
- Such a process could be made more quick and effective if you kindly allow us the first order with the
100% of return rights and prolonged maturity for the invoice. It would help us to process the new
products systematically and offer it in many different distribution channels based on a very flexible
delivery directly from your warehouse.
10
4. Further Orders of Goods
We place further orders based on:
- particular orders received from our customers; we do not keep such goods in stock;
- regularly selling items are ordered for stock; the amount bought for stock depends on the conditions
established by you, first of all according to the terms of payment, costs of transport and the option
to return unsold goods.
You very often ask for our ordering a minimum number of copies per item or for placing orders for several items, reaching certain
volumes of goods. Such requests put strict limits on including your items in our distribution system, especially as regards the mailorder service and e-shop service.

IX. STRATEGY FOR THE YEAR 2009
This year we hope to continue in successful period started in 2008 when we finally managed to stop decreasing
the sales.
To manage this, we have decided to follow the bellow mentioned steps:
1, Change the firm domicile, which we expect to increase the potential of our warehouse and subsequently
larger purchases, faster processing of the orders and last but not least, satisfied customers increasing our
turnover. For the same reason to be able to offer better services and communication there will be some personnel
changes in number and structure of employees.
2, We try to concentrate more on internet sellers to offer our products. This method has proved to be very
successful during the year 2008. I would appreciate your support in potentiality to have more goods on stock
with the return rights and longer maturity.
3, We are intending to invest more into our web-shop development. We would like to include song samples, more
products, and more information about the products. Even in this matter, we will appreciate your support.
4, There are already some fixed plans how to enrich our offer on other products as well. First, we are going
to concentrate more on calendar sale as well as posters and t-shirts.
5, The decreasing demand in finished products we are going to substitute with the licenses sale to produce
cheap CDs and DVDs enclosed in magazines and newspapers.
The aims are imperial; the time for making them alive is here.
Would you like to be a part of it?
Let us meet at Midem and discuss it.
