(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 05/16/16 -- Namaste Technologies Inc. ("Namaste" or the "Company") (CSE: N)(OTC PINK: NXTTF) (FRANKFURT: M5BQ) reports the launch of a new wholesale division, the development of multiple new e-commerce and social media platforms specifically designed for the vaporizer and accessories community, and the expansion of the senior management team.
These developments accelerate Namaste's strategy to be an integrated leader in the international vaporizer and accessories market, through innovative in-bound marketing e-commerce and social media platforms, industry leading logistics and fulfillment capabilities, and differentiated wholesale solutions for manufactures and distributors.
Wholesale Expansion
The management team of Namaste is pleased to announce and welcome Mr. Peter Tollmann Jr., as the new Executive Vice President, Wholesale Division. Mr. Tollmann was previously one of the leading sales managers at the largest vaporizer distributor globally and is an expert in the motivation and management of sales teams. In that regard, his experience spans 20-years of managing relationships with internal staff, cross-functional teams, retailers, distributors and vendors, while consistently driving revenue growth, expanding market presence, improving processes and managing costs.
Based in Florida, Mr. Tollmann will be responsible for establishing the Company's wholesale technology, fulfillment and customer service supported product offerings to e-commerce companies, headshops and other retail distributors. Mr. Tollmann has identified initial members of his global team and will develop a sales force focused on nine countries globally.
Key differentiating elements of Namaste's wholesale offering include:
E-Commerce Expansion
Namaste is currently investing significant resources into the acceleration of its inbound marketing e-commerce strategy through organic search engine optimization and technologies. This strategy includes best-in-class natural rankings, trust of brand growth, client population expansion, and sales conversion optimization. The objective is to significantly increase the sustainability and reoccurring nature of sales at a lower customer acquisition cost than pay per click. For the month of April, Namaste achieved a top-decile conversion funnel with 6.3% of site visitors adding products to the cart, 4.7% reaching checkout and 3.1% making purchases.
In addition to enhancing overall e-commerce traffic and maintaining high conversion rates, the Company is focused on launching new portals and applications to facilitate social and commercial interactions between vaporizer and accessory community members. These include:
Management Commentary
Mr. Sean Dollinger, President and CEO of Namaste, comments: "Our integration of wholesale and e-commence operations will allow Namaste to reach a larger audience with our products and synergistically enhance the offerings of both divisions. This expansion also positions the Company to address the entity of the estimated US$2.0 billion vaporizer market, which is characterized by approximately 80% of sales being generated through physical retail locations. I firmly believe these strategic developments further advance our objective to become the leading integrated vaporizer and accessories company internationally."
Corporate Security Appointment and Option Grant
Namaste announces the appointment of Mr. Darren Collins, Chief Financial Officer of Company, as Corporate Secretary. The Company has also granted 300,000 stock options to officers, directors, and consultants of the Company. The options will have an exercise price of $0.15 per share for a period of 5-years.
