FACT
Business owners need software to organize various aspects of their business operations.
PROBLEM
1. Using multiple systems, separate login credentials and passwords will require copy and paste maneuvers to share information between systems. Not only is this time consuming and redundant, but it can be the source of data entry error.
2. Business owners are typically unable to access important records when out of the office. This can greatly impede the process of concluding business deals and making timely decisions.
3. Keeping responsible team members informed of client interactions,inventory updates and moment-by-moment schedule changes, etc. generally requires in-person staff meetings, emails, memos or phone calls. This requires extra time and energy and redundancy.

OfficeSweeet is an easy-to-use and
affordable cloud-based software solution that embraces ALL of the aspects required to run a business.
1. CRM (Customer Relationship Management)
2. Completely Integrated Accounting
3. Automated Inventory Management
4. HR and Employee Training Management with Payroll calculation
5. Task and Project Management System
6. Fully Integrated Scheduling for staff and clients
7. Internal Communication system for staff and support
8. Enterprise Document Management w/eSign capabilities.
REVENUE MODEL
OfficeSweeet utilizes a recurring revenue model. Our software is continually upgraded and malleable.
We attract users based on the fact that we allow full use of the system for about the same cost of a single application from our competitors.
Rather than being industry specific, OfficeSweeet can adapt to various industries due to the fact that all systems are built-in, customizable and fully integrated.
Clients pay on a sliding scale from $47 to $297 per month based on the number of users.
VALIDATION
To date, we have not lost a single user due to any failure on the part of the software or support staff.
MARKETING AND SALES STRATEGY
One-on-one sales to leads obtained from the Internet
Online Video Marketing attracting clients at the $97 level 24/7
Weekly webinars from the leads obtained online and direct
email marketing
Facebook, LinkedIn and local social events to keep our target market aware of OfficeSweeet and it’s continued development.
Investment funds will allow for a broader and more diversified marketing approach for branding.
PROJECTIONS
Within the initial 12 months, we project 209 users creating
$107K in monthly revenue.
After 24 months we project 1000+ users creating $337K
monthly revenue
Our goal is to acquire 10,000 subscribers within five years
COMPETITION
Freshbooks made accounting simpler than QBs and quickly grew to over 50 million in annual revenue.
Infusionsoft concentrated on sales and marketing and claims over 125,000 users @ $99/mo/user.
NetSuite realized that the market wanted multiple integrated systems and in 2016 was offered 9.2
BILLION by Oracle. Yet NetSuite is so difficult to use it often takes months and years to deploy and still lacks many tools needed by most businesses.
There are two major factors that distinguish us from our competitors;
1. Eight (8) ESSENTIAL systems that truly operate as ONE and
2. A direct link we have with our clients from within OfficeSweeet providing instantaneous feedback.
This goes a long way when it comes to client retention and adapting to changing market needs.
INVESTMENT AND USE OF FUNDS
We are offering an equity position of 5-20% for $100-400K.
Funds will be allocated as follows;
1. Advance our marketing strategies to grow our client base.
2. Acquire additional programmers for special projects to stay ahead of our competition.
With your investment, monthly revenue is projected to exceed $300K per month within the first 24 months.
