Abstract/Summary
The Uload machine is the latest technological trend for e-loading mobile phones here in the Philippines. It is marketed as a product that would be convenient to customers because the key feature of the product is that it sells e-load for the 6 major mobile networks in the Philippines. Mindmap Commtech Inc., being a startup company, doesn't have past sales volumes and marketing strategies as a basis for strategies which is the reason why they mostly rely on research and statistics in order to implement their plans. The launch, which was in May 2011, marked the start of the products entrance in the Philippine market.
The Uload targets 16-20 year old students and 21-25 year old graduates and people who are in their first jobs of the socio-economic class C.

These percentages are what the company aims to attain by the end of the first year.
In order to achieve the objectives, the company will conduct above the line and below the line advertising, consumer promotions, and public relations programs that are aimed at the target market. The campaign is set to begin on September 2011.
