  4. Corporate Intelligence:
  5.  
  6. We have an agreement in principle with Abraxas (TrapWire) to provide
  7. "streaming sitreps" to their clients via their desktop/homepage by the end
  8. of July. Their clients include Scotland Yard, #10 Downing, the White
  9. House, and many MNC's. This is big time QSM. This will get us front and
  10. center to corporations and governments to sell IS. Our consideration is
  11. introducing them to companies like Wal Mart, Dell and other Fred cronies.
  12. Fred made the introduction, Patrick figured out the business deal.
  13.  
  14. We have also expanded our relationship with Deloitte to start providing
  15. "some" of their customers with geopolitical intelligence similar to what
  16. the Eurasia group does with Price Waterhouse. This is in the early stages
  17. but feels good. Again - QSM working here.
  18.  
  19. We also have a couple of opportunities with MNC - LyondellBasell - out of
  20. their Mexico subsidiary pertaining to Venezuela. One - a $28,000 "easy"
  21. one and another in the hands of Peter to determine the effort and
  22. $$$$$$$$$ from me after getting the info. Also out there with
  23. LyondellBasell is a biggie we priced at $300,000 which is centered around
  24. Fred's cashing in some chits in Mexico. This has nothing to do with time
  25. spent - it's all about introductions to the right people which is VALUE to
  26. LyondellBasell. This is "easy money" and therefore has low probability of
  27. getting done. LyondellBasell is loosing between $1,500,000 and $5,000,000
  28. / year on the local Mexicans skimming production from one of their plants
  29. in Mexico. I'm not counting on this. The company is taking our proposal
  30. to their Board next week.
  31.  
  32. Institutional Sales:
  33.  
  34. One of the things we are getting Nate to do is study other's pricing for
  35. IS. Once we get the dossier we can go head to head (I hope, with Janes
  36. and Oxford Anaylitica's pricing model. THINK BIG: Check out the pricing
  37. for OA.
