We are seeking capital to support promotional opportunities, expansion
and infrastructure.
We need cash to implement the capital and marketing plan and sustain the
operation during the growth phase.
With an investment of $1 million in 2 or 3 phases over a two year period,
we believe we can reach a targeted gross revenue of about $35 million.
