The main distinctive feature of the TekyCorp platform is the combination of training courses and an online hardware store. The advantage is the use of blockchain technology and smart contracts, but it should be noted that the identified competitors are quite popular and are well-established in the target market. For example, (1) Currys

The website, CMS and mobile application are built on primary and backup server clusters. The database server consists of a primary server cluster and a backup server cluster that synchronize data with each other.

Development plans

According to the white paper: - Q2 2018 - Entering the markets of the US and Russia. - Q1 2019 - India and South-East Asia. - Q2 2019 - Indonesia and the Philippines. - Q3 2019 - Korea, Japan, North America and Europe. - Q4 2019 – expansion of the ecosystem throughout Southeast Asia. Marketing strategy: use of adwords, social advertising (bonuses, discounts, promotion, etc.), e-mailing, SEO and affiliate programs, banner advertising, digital marketing, cold calls, various events etc.

[2]

[2]

Comment:

As we can see from the above, Mek.store is projected to

provide about $1B of annual turnover in 2022, but the Teky

Academy will bring only $50M. We believe that in this case it

would be more profitable to cancel the development of Teky

Academy (marginality - 25%) and concentrate on Mek.store

(average margin - from 30%).

[2]

Resume:

The white paper describes the marketing campaign and

development plans. A set of carefully selected tools can assist

the company’s popularity in the market.
