Welcome to In Business for Good

Here's some information related to the larger aspects of the campaigns supported by Buddha studios.


The basis for the In Business 4 Good Business Model

The objective of the IB4G Model of operations is focused on a systematic redirection of existing consumer spending, in the primary areas of music, entertainment, videos, art and collectibles. A flat percentage conversion, usually 25%, and drawn from the expenses typically allocated to marketing, public relations, packaging, promotion, and legal departments, will be allocated, in advance, as a top of the line “Community Investment” item.

Key components of this campaign are:

Community focused word of mouth market velocity generation

Digital based market research, promotion, and distribution

The Gifting phenomenon associated with the ‘hard to buy for’ consumer, specifically, the Cultural Creatives.

Refocusing and extending the ‘helping’ nature of the primary core consumer group, women between 25 and 60, who account for nearly 75% of all retail household purchasing, and nearly 80% of all charitable contributions under 100.00 US.

Leveraging of the intergenerational matrix of communications, among women, and providing means of accessing that matrix through digital community technologies.

Structure of the enterprise: This is a for profit association of media, music, development, and distribution/marketing enterprises, entering into project focused campaign to raise money for Good Causes around the world. Utilizing a Marketing Activism template, we will focus our efforts in responding to the current world situations, and providing a continuing, and evolving organic means of support centers, available through digital and electronic communities.

All funds will be made available, at the conclusion of the campaigns, which usually will run for 100 days, in the form of a grant. In some cases, such as the Ebay Giving Works campaign auctions, will be diverted upon conversion(sale) to the registered good cause of note.

The ground breaking approach to funding will ensure a continuous stream of revenues, drawn from the retail sector activity, and allocated in a Pay Forward mode, to eligible good causes.

For further information on this campaign, connect with this online journal(blog) where our progress will be updated as we continue to develop this new economic and business model. http://inbusinessforgood.blogspot.com/

That's a wrap, amigo

Well, we've done our best. Here's the results of the adventure, which we've released to around 20 angel investor associates, and the universe, to supply the project as it sees fit. Thank You, Spirit, for your guidance and assistance.

Executive Briefing Sheet for Buddha Studios Business In Formation Project
December 18, 2005


For the last five days, as of 12/18/2005, an eclectic and focused group of musicpreneurs, have gathered their collective intentions in a development project. The results of that activity are noted here, and we are prepared to receive the support that will accelerate this campaign, nominally titled ‘Musicians For Peace’.

The Players: Malcolm Dorje – Chief Visionary Officer of Buddha Studios. Responsible for setting the tone and intention of the musical expressionists.

Patrick Michaels – Chief Encouragement Officer, HarmonyNet Media Group. Tasked with assembling the tactical and structural elements required to assist with the Business in Formation. Overlapping responsibilities include development of an accelerated music marketing, merchandising, and distribution system, leveraging a 30+ year track record in computer technology.

Consensus Business Plan: Buddha Studios is a Music Development, Publishing, and Cause Marketing association, with the responsibility to leverage market dynamics, technical advances, and social circumstances. The goal of the entity is to effect a system that will materially provide 25% of the gross revenues to the cause of Global Peace organizations and institutions for Peaceful activities.

Method: Leveraging the technology marketing dynamic association with a spiritually led strategy for community development, the team will provide co-marketed campaigns, that strongly resonate with topical world events, institutions with extended life communities of advocates, and also do ground breaking marketing development projects.




Revenue Sources: Focused on the burgeoning online retail market for music related products, the revenue streams, which are vital to the goals of the group, will tap into the ‘community focused’ ownership of good cause campaigns. Projections suggest that an acceleration growth of 25% quarter over quarter is sustainable, and the de-escalating cost and overhead, associated with open source marketing plans, collaborative and empowered work groups, and low cost of entry marketing campaigns, will yield consistent revenue growth results.

Opportunities for Participation: The group is open to receiving sponsorship and investment grade support, on a project by project basis, beginning with an initial stake of $ 8,000,000.00 for FY 2006.

Ahhh..now then..what shall we talk about?

Aloha,

Well..the incubation stage is complete. The Business Formation efforts have rendered some fruit, and now, in the next 20 hours, we decide. What form of business entities will yield from this effort. What you don't know, and won't until it's pau(finished over here in Paradise), is the effect of the recent Google Music Search engine announcement. More on that in a future edition. In the meantime, we recommend you scroll down this page, and subscribe to our bi-weekly ezine, where the guts and glory of that campaign(using Google Music Search) will be edified and revealed.

More sooner...now into the spa on a half moonlit night above the soaring and crashing waves of the sea.
