THE OPPORTUNITY:
A “Zoomer” is a Boomer with a zest for living.
No form of media speaks directly and authoritatively to the 34 million online Americans between the ages of 60 and 75 to help them live fully their next thirty years.
Until now.
Welcome to Zoomerville® - a web-based Internet community, providing relevant life-stage information and solutions for our affluent, targeted demographic – our Zoomers.
FINANCIAL POTENTIAL:
Zoomerville is structured for scalable rapid growth, high gross margins (Year 3 exceeds 70%), exceptional profitability (Year 3 EBITDA exceeds 40%) and strong cash flow. Our business plan financials do not include potentially profitable Phase Two branding revenue and profit projections.
INVESTMENT PROPOSITION:
Zoomerville is seeking $2 million for startup and operations.
As Zoomerville achieves Year 3 projections, the site will be positioned for possible acquisition or IPO. We will seek to sell Zoomerville at a multiple of 15x to 20x earnings, based upon Online Advertising and Internet Information Services industry segment 2014 P/E multiples of ~28 and ~62, respectively.
We expect investors to realize at least 10-15x ROI after 3 years, with a targeted business valuation between $73 and $97 million at end of Year 3.
