Update On Cosway Pharmacy

Up to date, there were already 58 established cosway pharmacy stores. Some pharmacy stores are under renovation and newly opened so these stores are not listed in cosway main website. According to news from the latest cosway pharmacist who had just opened his cosway pharmacy (end of october 2012), he said he was already given number 70+ out of all existing cosway pharmacy stores. So the number of stores is indeed growing fast.


Now, Provisionally Registered Pharmacists (PRPs) can be trained under the cosway pharmacist with less than four years experience after the HQ negotiated with the Pharmacy Board. However, final marking will be done by the pharmacist in cosway HQ.

Current Distribution of Cosway Pharmacy Stores In Malaysia

To date, Cosway already had cosway pharmacy stores opened in Japan, China and Mexico. How about in Malaysia?


In Malaysia, the number of Cosway Pharmacy stores had grown steadily at faster pace throughout the first few months since the opening of the very first Cosway Pharmacy at Berjaya Times Square, KL. I remember before I went to oversea a week ago, I did check the number of Cosway Pharmacy opened to date and it was about 30 stores. When I recheck again after I came back a week time, I realized there were already 39 stores! You can count it below:




Kuala Lumpur  - 7 stores (Putrajaya, Berjaya Times Square, Pandan Indah, Taman Batu, Pudu Ulu, Kelang Lama, Taman Tun Dr. Ismail (TTDI)
Selangor  - 20 stores (Taman Megah Cheras, Taman Segar Perdana Cheras, Bandar Teknologi Kajang, Taman Kajang Prima, Taman Prima Saujana Kajang, Bandar Sungai Long Kajang, Bandar Mahkota Cheras Kajang, Taman Taming Jaya Balakong, Bandar Puchong Utama, Bandar Baru Puchong Jaya, SS3 Petaling Jaya, SS7 Kelana Jaya, Seksyen 1 Petaling Jaya, Bandar Sri Damansara Petaling Jaya, USJ 19 City Mall Subang Jaya, Bandar Bukit Tinggi Klang, Taman TDI Jaya Shah Alam, Bukit Jelutong Shah Alam, Setia Alam)
Sabah5 stores (Suria Sabah Shopping Mall KK, Api-Api Centre KK, Grand Plaza Putatan KK, Taman Foh Sang Luyang KK, Plaza Kingfisher KK)
Sarawak1 store (Kota Sentosa Commercial Centre, Kuching)
Penang4 stores (Taman Bagan Ajam Butterworth, Paya Terubong, Taman Usahaniaga Bukit Mertajam, Sunway Carnival Mall Seberang Jaya)
Kelantan 1 store (Kota Kenangan Jalan Hospital,Kota Bharu)
Johor1 store (Taman Johor Jaya, Johor Bahru)


I truly believe the number will grow even larger soon , perhaps about 80-90 Cosway Pharmacies at the end of 2012. Soon, Cosway Pharmacy will be as established as other big chain pharmacy stores such as Guardian, Watsons and Caring. Lets see!

How You Profit Through Profit Plan?

Well, here I will explain the profit plan gained by the business owner (eCosway Pharmacist/store operator).


If you can get six stockist/pharmacist under you network, your income will be five figures. How? I will explain it below.




Whenever you or anyone in your network makes an eCosway sale or purchase from any of our stores, it generates “eVolume” (eV). eV is the sales volume value assigned to each product.

Every month, eCosway calculates the eV generated by your network and pays you four types of profits:
  • Retail Profit
  • Branch Override
  • Branch Performance Incentive (BPI)
  • Extra Incentive (EI)
Note: For the calculation of monthly profits, 1 eV = 1 eDollar =RM3.50(SGD/BND1.50)
Your profits will be paid to you on a monthly basis.

Retail Profit:
When you sell the products to your customers at the suggested retail price, you will earn the difference between the retail price and your discounted price. On top of that, up to 23% retail profit will be paid on the monthly eVolume (eV) generated by your Personal Sales (comprised of your own purchases plus the purchases of your VIP Shoppers). Even though retail profit is only paid on your Personal Branch, the percentage you get is based on the volume of your entire network, so the bigger your network, the more profit you get from your personal purchases and retail sales.
Branch Overrides:
You will earn an overriding percentage on the eV generated by each of your BO branches, based on the difference between your eligibility percentage and theirs.
The Retail Profit & Branch Overrides chart (beside) is used to determine this eligibility.

each
of your BO branches (including your Personal Sales) that exceeds 500 eV each month (except your highest eV Branch which serves as the qualifying branch for this incentive). Please refer to the chart for the amount you receive per branch.

NO CAP! For each additional 100,000eV after 300,000 eV, you receive an additional $1,000 eDollars.

Extra Incentive (EI):
You will receive an Extra Incentive based on the volume of each of your BO branches (including your Personal Sales) that exceeds 500 eV each month (except your highest eV Branch which serves as the qualifying branch for this incentive). Please refer to the chart for the amount you receive per branch.

Note: If you have branches with less than 500 eV, you can still earn an Extra Incentive by combining the volume to meet a qualifying eV level (as shown on the left side of the table). However, the eV of combined branches cannot exceed (and will be capped at) the eV level of your qualifying branch.






How To Qualify For The Extra Incentive (EI) And Keep The Additional Profit Centre(s):On joining, you will be given 2 additonal profit centres directly under your main profit centre.



The amount of Extra Incentive (EI) you can earn and Profit Centre(s) you can keep depends on the Personal Sales Volume (eV) that you generate within 30 days of your joining date. You can either buy or sell the products to generate the eV based on the eV set booklet. There will be an eV set booklet provided once you join as business owner (RM 100 application fee). 1000 eV is the maximum amount you can purchase and the good thing is you get more profit centre and earn lots more. Once the qualification is determined, it stands for the duration of your Business Ownership.

               Note: 1000 eV will have 7 profit centres in total (updated source)

This special EI & Profit Centre qualification eV can only be fulfilled from the sales of our Special eV Product Sets. eV from the sales of other products will not be included.

 Special eV Product Sets
As an incentive for you to try cosway products and promote them to friends and relatives, cosway is offering  specially packaged products at much higher discounts than usual. You can choose to purchase one or more product sets up to maximum of 1,000 eV per Business Owner.

These Special eV Product Sets can only be purchased within the first 30 days of your joining at the store where you registered.

If you do not meet the special 1,000 eV product set qualification within 30 days from your joining date, the 2 additional profit centres will be removed as follows:



How The eCosway Profit Plan Works 
 

  
Note: Example above assume that you have at least 15 eV and the required QUs to qualify for the profits. However, it will depend on your need. If your network can assure your earning at one particular month, then you can get the 15eV to gain the all the profits. Otherwise, you don't need to. What is best after all is that you will gain these four types of profit in USD dollar!

eCosway’s Success Formula


It is important to know eCosway's Success Formula before deciding to join as a business owner (the eCosway pharmacist/store operator). It will be a good reference for those who want to become a store operator of either eCosway Pharmacy/eCosway. However, for the pharmacist, it will be helpful as well because pharmacist will be partnering at least with a store operator if they intend to open a cosway pharmacy store. After all, most information will apply to both the pharmacist and the store operator.


eCosway’s Success Formula:

Products
When it comes to products and business success, there are two factors that really matter – quality and variety. For over 30 years, eCosway has built alliances with world-renowned raw material and ingredient suppliers, reputable manufacturers and researchers around the world. The result is an ever-growing, wide range of high quality products (literally the “best of the best”) across a broad spectrum of categories including daily consumables that are always in demand and exciting products that create new interest and drive sales.

Ever-Growing Product Range includes:





 
Prices
Most network marketing companies overprice their products. This hinders repeat sales. eCosway prides itself in offering quality products at very competitive prices, resulting in growing sales from new and loyal customers. 

Promotions
eCosway’s innovative Purchase Rewards Programme lets shoppers enjoy low prices and thrills them with various promotions like discounts, new product offers, purchase-with-purchase specials and exciting reward items.

Physical Distribution
You’ve probably heard that the key to business success is ‘location, location, location!’eCosway stores are easily accessible because stores are opened in high-density residential areas, hypermarkets and shopping malls. Unlike most MLM companies that have limited distribution channels, eCosway’s extensive reach and growing presence give shoppers convenient and easy access.

Profit Plan
When you join eCosway as an Independent Business Owner (BO), your goal is to build a network of VIP Shoppers and Business Owners (eCosway’s pharmacist/store keeper) like yourself. The combination of eCosway’s unprecendented global business opportunity and unique, no breakaway Profit Plan allows you to build a fast, lucrative and everlasting income from the continuous and unlimited growth of your global network of consumers and Business Owners. You can even “will” your eCosway business to your heirs, benefiting your children and generations beyond.

Earn or Win - The Choice is Yours!
 eCosway doesn’t stop at offering great products at attractive prices. We also run promotions and an exciting shopper rewards programme. This keeps consumers happy, and keeps your sales rolling in every month.
