1 Maciej Stopa Tel JustAsk Poland Making expat life easier Collaboration offer Valid for the 31st May 2017 What is JustAsk Poland? JAP is a blog written in English for foreigners. I started the project in November 2016 because there was no reliable and up-to-date information hub dedicated especially to solving all of the problems English-speaking foreign residents might face in Poland. Current JAP ideas There are two parts of the projects: Guides Practical tutorials of high value. These contain translations of Polish documents and websites, which enables readers to solve many of their problems on their own. Content presented on the blog is detailed and verified.

2 2 Examples of the guides that I have published: PIT In English. How To Submit A Tax Return Form Step By Step NIP For Foreigners Registration In Poland. Zameldowanie For Foreigners In Krakow How Do I Choose A Personal Bank Account? The Best Banks In Poland How Do I Register A Company In Poland? Questions Readers ask me about any kind of problems that they need to deal with in Poland. In most cases I m able to find answers on my own, for example by contacting officials. In situations that require professional assistance I provide readers with contact details of experts and companies, after I check that they will be able to help them in English. Some of my Facebook reviews published by the readers: Such a great help, you are making life easier for many expats in Poland Maciek, Thank you for should be number one reference for every foreign. you are amazing Very helpful. I got all the information I needed and extra. I am so grateful for the help since I could not find accurate information on my questions anywhere else. Keep the good work up. Thank you:)

3 3 Amazingly helpful. They actually contacted the concerned offices/ subject matter experts and provided the most comprehensive and accurate information. Keep the good work up. Highly Recommended!! Really fast response and lots of detail, despite it being a question that didn't have a prepared answer. Fantastic! Source: My Facebook page is followed by 6,679 people. Goals The main goal of JAP is to build the most extensive information source in English for foreigners living in Poland. My strategic advantage will be high-value content created in collaboration with experts from fields such as law, accounting, and real estate. I also focus on writing my articles in a clear and easy to understand way. The biggest asset of JustAsk Poland will be an engaged community based on trust and friendliness. My target is a group of 20,000 English speaking foreigners who have joined Facebook expat groups. In the future I also would like to set up a concierge business for foreigners in Poland.

4 4 Statistics Users since November 2016: Sessions: Pageviews: The blog has been regularly viewed since February 2017.

5 5 Users in March: Pageviews in March: JAP had very good proportions of new and returning visitors in March: 45,8% - Returning Visitors 54,2% - New Visitors

6 6 The blog has noted a visible increase in pageviews in the last days of April: I expect a decrease of new entries in May due to the ending of the tax return period. My most popular articles won t be displayed as frequently anymore, but I will counteract this expectation with the SEO (search engine optimization) strategies. I will also keep publishing new and useful articles. 70,68% of readers reach my articles from the territory of Poland. That means that I m read mostly by expats who already here. My website is also viewed in the following countries: 4,39% - United Kingdom 3,12% - United States 2,38% - India 1,93% - Germany 1,58% - Sweden 1,46% - Russia 1,35% - France

I offer you two kinds of collaboration: guest articles or content-based support. Guest articles I would be glad to publish guest articles written by experts - together with a free advertisement of the services offered by the Partner.

The Partner will only support me through their knowledge during the editorial process. I propose the following scheme of the collaboration: First we will discuss the general aspects of the described problem via phone or Skype; I ll start writing the text and will send the Partner detailed questions via if needed; The Partner will check the text before its publication. In the beginning of the text I ll inform the readers that the Partner is responsible for the content contained in the text and I am responsible for the editorial process.
