Dear Michele

Hi I hope all is well, I’d really appreciate it if you had a good look at this, and maybe pass it to your financial advisor. Whist it seems impossible, unrealistic even, its based on a very solid economic structure.

Whilst Amex was the obvious target for luxury tourism in association with Bulgari, I first approached Virgin as I also had a proposal for VIRGIN MONEY. Their South Africa office has only one staff member who gets 30 proposals a week and a backlog of hundreds, within 4 weeks they had assess my plan and the detailed financials, approved it and forwarded it to the London Committee. But then I was a little too insistent on personally talking top Richard Branson so they shelved the proposal.

Just a bit more explanation of the 4 points mentioned in The Proposal

1. Bulgari and 2 Italian fashion companies, create Lavish Art Books under the “Experience Brand” Further building the brand over 16 countries or continents then selling half to a concierge or travel company, preferably AMEX Centurion along with a banking proposition.

I’ve have a treatment that I am getting costs for, we will be tacking some mock up shots before presentation. Considering they came to us, I see no reason for them not to accept, and this opens the door for other approaches.

2. Create software, to initially run our Finances, Customer Services & Administration. Then integrate it to SME’s, large corporate & governmental systems.
The SME software has been developed for a long time, this was a part of the package virgin assessed.

3. Asking, Google, Face Book and Twitter, to co-develop “S World”, an Avatar populated Virtual World, Shopping and Business Network. $200M has already been pumped into creating the Virtual World, but there funding has run out and they don’t know how to market it, we can either buy it for at most $10M or we invite them as a partner.
Finding the company that created the $200,000,000 Virtual World was pure luck. I’d been looking to get GOOGLE to start one from scratch, but now we have 3 years of work and development to offer them.

4. Ask economically troubled countries to Zone new land for commercial and residential use in exchange for an economic bail out
A New Idea, not well researched but interesting, I will be taking to some property developers this week, after which I attempt it to the South African Housing minister for further advice.

Regarding UFC and FIFA, My martial Arts coach is tipped for the next UFC fighter, his club Dragon Power help to train Randy Couture, they are very influential and if we brought them a proposal they would have a good look at it especially with names like Bulgari on it.

FIFA are the big one, and I have excellent contacts with Match (There travel wing,) and Soccer EX the biggest name in soccer exhibitions.  But we will not be contacting FIFA until we approached UFC and have some more weight behind our consortium.
I have set up a Face Book account for us to communicate, should you wish.
