  To sum up then, we feel that the Taiwan market is ready for EarthSound's unique line of products.
Furthermore, we believe that EarthSound can win profits in a short time and build a customer base for the future at the same time. Achieving these goals will require a two-step marketing campaign. The first step, aimed at adults, will be a traditional campaign focusing on high class and sophisticated style. The second step will be aimed at teenagers and young adults. For this group, we will gradually build EarthSound's image as healthy alternative.
  I would like to conclude with a simple reminder. When you started this company on a shoestring, skeptics claimed that you wouldn't find a market. You have proved them wrong in the states, and you will prove them wrong in Taiwan! Thank you for your time and attention. Are there any questions?
