A Snippet From My Academic Life - Product Design Application

Statement of Interest

To me, product design is a creative process by which thoughts become things. It is all at once the imagination and the manifestation of a creative mind. I adopt this broad perspective because it can be applied to achieve my goals through deliberate action. My primary goal is to design and build musical instruments out of recycled/sustainable materials. I am not sure about the specific type of instrument that I will work to create first, and I don’t yet have the required knowledge or tools to begin, but I am confident that I can become a craftsman of instruments that sound and look beautiful.

I think Material + Product Studies is the best path for me at the University of Oregon. As I go about my life interacting with many unique environments, I have gathered great respect for product design. I am an entrepreneur who has invested in Xocai Healthy Chocolate because I believe the products (which are high in antioxidants because they are made using a revolutionary cold-pressing technique) are beyond worthy of my support and distribution. While operating my business I have learned that marketing is difficult when you’re promoting a massive change such as the elimination of junk from our diets. It is similar to the energy crisis in that the push to “go green” is noble, but fossil fuels have a firm grasp on the status quo because affluent companies exercise their power to sway public opinion. I refuse to quit on Xocai because I know the products have the potential to benefit the lives of many people. I have respect for those who can market effectively, but I have even more respect for those who promote exceptional products. I hope to one day bring my own exceptional products to the marketplace, but I must first innovate and design said products.

The Second Step

Choose your inventory!

If you like dark chocolate, you'll love the entire line of Xocai products.
Click HERE to read about the revolutionary Healthy Chocolate. My personal preference is the Omega Square due to the orange taste, but you only get 84 Squares per Case (compared to 100 Nuggets or 140 Power Squares). Your choice of inventory sort of depends on whether you plan to sell it, give it out as free samples, or eat it (I choose to give and eat).

As of November 2009, Xocai is breaking even more new ground.

Interested in doing business with MXI and Xocai? Your first assignment is to watch a presentation. It's 32 minutes long so it will take a minute or two to download.

Former pop-rock star Paul Engemann presents his story with Xocai, the health science of unprocessed cocoa, and the profitability of becoming a distributor:

Internet Marketing at its Finest

MXI is essentially just a club of Xocai healthy chocolate eaters. Recently, the club has expanded to healthy energy drink drinkers. Like most clubs, there is a membership fee. In this case, it is $39, a small price for obtaining a website that you can immediately refer to anybody with an ounce of entrepreneurial spirit.

CocoaPrimo is a committee, or team, within the MXI/Xocai club. While face-to-face marketing is very effective, our team is increasingly marketing on the internet to maximize the power of leverage for sponsoring new distributors. Unfortunately, web traffic doesn't simply start flocking to your website the minute you make it. The demand for more traffic creates a market which spawns companies that ask you for money in exchange for advertising services. I've seen many of these that look very credible, but I wasn't interested in paying for leads. Eventually I found TrafficSmarter, which is a FREE (Gold Membership is free for a limited time only) internet marketing traffic generator which advertises your website in exchange for advertising their website. This is a dream come true for social networking businesses like CocoaPrimo, but even if you don't already have a product to offer, you can advertise for TrafficSmarter and collect affiliate commissions on PayPal!

Cocoa Primo - The Honest Team of Xocai Distributors

As 2010 is comin' 'round the corner, there are many MLM companies trying to revolutionize the way people think about business. You may be familiar with network marketing and you may have already have an opinion about it, seeing how it looks very similar to a pyramid scheme, something that most people would consider a scam. Well I'm here to say NEVER FEAR! A PYRAMID IS A SHAPE WHICH REPRESENTS THE ORGANIZATION OF PEOPLE IN ALL BUSINESSES. I AM PRESENTING YOU WITH AN OPPORTUNITY THAT COULD BE A VALUABLE INVESTMENT OF YOUR TIME AND MONEY.

Enter MXI Corp with their revolutionary Xocai product line. Why is it revolutionary? Because it is authentic healthy chocolate. I can testify to this because my immune system is naturally pretty weak, but I've made it through the last couple winter months without getting sick because I've been eating Xocai Power Squares every day. Don't believe me? That's too bad. I'm not gonna ask you to take my word for it, but I will provide you with some informative videos about the products and business opportunity.

The name of my Xocai distribution team is Cocoa Primo and our goal is to spread health & wealth to people who want it. In other words, we do not employ aggressive marketing techniques like auto-emailing or annoying people who are not interested. Instead, we use word of mouth marketing in conjunction with attraction internet marketing (with services like blogs and twitter) in order to "get the right people on the bus".

With the launch of the new Xocai Xe healthy energy drink, I predict MXI Corp will continue to see massive growth.
