From Raging Bull.....ragingbull.com By: jazzbo Reply To: 9824 by Howard_Hughes Tuesday, 25 May 1999 at 6:20 PM EDT Post # of 9842 How happy is John Hwang? John has been with TSIG less than six months. Before that, John sold his own successful business to a leading company in web design and construction. John is 27-28 years old, wealthy, and has already had a successful career by most standards. Certainly, John Hwang is with TSIG to make some money, but I doubt that is his motivating force. In speaking with Sean Kauppinen of Golin-Harris today, I learned that John came to TSIG to essentially build another company. What he liked about TSIG is that there was a working call center; this factor complements his vision of what e-commerce should be, an integration of internet solutions with teleservices, where the customer can move easily from one to the other to provide the best possible service to the consumer. What is envisioned is the creation, servicing and supplementing e-solutions in varied packages to companies, enabling the companies to best serve their particular consumer. John is out in the SF area busting his ###, outfitting his offices with machines and talented people, and working contacts. He only got seed cash a few weeks ago. I make no promises or unfounded predictions, but given time, I feel certain John Hwang will re-create another success. Golin-Harris intends to inform the media of John Hwang's talents, and of TSIG's resources, particularly the teleservices resources. The focus group is computer and internet related publications, publications that are read by companies looking for e-commerce assistance and solutions, and companies that require outsourced teleservices. Riding this company down in share price is brutal. We're all sick of so-called "buying opportunities", and wouldn't mind a couple of profitable selling opportunities. Unfortunately, selling opportunites don't appear imminent. Hopefully, in time, we'll see measureable progress in the form of revenues, palatable financing, perhaps an alliance with a recognized company, even earnings. But it ain't happening overnight. I watch the daily ticker too, but take solace in my belief that TSIG is moving ahead, however slowly, if not in share price, then in building a workable enterprise. Phone and write the company with your complaints and suggestions; make yourself an asset of the company.. Riding the company down by raising unfounded concerns and hammering management doesn't help. Getting hammered every now and then, I find, eases the waiting. A little preachy, but there you have it. Regards, long and suffering, Tim
