Description: OUR OFFERING: Company is seeking a minimum of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) to design/assemble/market/sell our Over-The-Counter (“OTC”) hearing aids online to the consumer. OUR BUSINESS: The Over-The-Counter (OTC) hearing aid market opened for the first time, with the passage of the Over-The-Counter Hearing Aid Act of 2017 which became law, in August of 2017. Our Company, relying upon our trade-secret protected technology and processes, has designed, manufactured, and consumer tested three prototype products (“A Little Help”, “A Little More Help”, and “The Most Help”). All products are manufactured per FDA CGMP standards and are safe and effective as hearing aids in properly providing hearing amplification to customers with mild-to-moderate hearing loss (about 75% of the hearing loss market). Our Company’s Made-In-America products give consumers an over-the-counter, low cost/high value hearing solution. Hearing loss is a significant untreated health problem given that quality hearing aids are not covered by health insurance nor are they available over-the-counter. As a result, the US market for amplification (hearing aids) and over-the-counter products is over 40 million people, equating to 80 million units for normal bilateral loss of hearing (Presbycusic hearing loss). The President’s Science and Technology Council, in December 2016, stated that over 80% of Americans cannot afford the hearing aids currently dispensed in the USA. The result is only 3 million units are sold by the six largest hearing aid companies doing business in the USA, leaving a massive void. Our product’s features address cost, ease of purchase, wearability, and vanity (small and barely visible); the Company’s products are powered by electronics similar to that used in prohibitively expensive hearing aids. Our product line retails for hundreds of dollars vs. the thousands of dollars charged by other hearing aid manufacturers. Our web site enables users to easily “self-identify” the product they need (using the company’s copyrighted hearing chart). Customers purchase our products over-thecounter as compared to buying hearing aids through licensed audiology practices. The Company’s management team has the necessary operating experience in direct-to-consumer marketing channels and affinity sales to accomplish the Pro Forma financial results we are projecting. Our sales and marketing (OTC), and affinity marketing, is based upon our Copyright protected Product Selection chart and methods which allows us to prohibit, via Federal Copyright Law, competitors from using our Copyrighted materials about normal hearing loss associated with aging (Presbycusis) whether directly or derivatively. Our Pro Forma Forecasts (which are “Forward Looking Statements”) show profitable financial results. Our proven marketing methods target and motivate prospects with mild to moderate hearing loss to ac. Officers and Significant Management: We have all presentations, pitch decks, company fact sheet, PPM and all execution documents ready for presentation complying with the "Jobs Act" and Reg. D 506c.
