Elsewares Promotional Products1.0 Executive SummaryIntroduction A market exists within the advertising specialty industry for velour and leatherette drawstring bags, eyeglass bags, jewelry bags & pen bags to hold various promotional products to increase their perceived value. Elsewares Promotional Products & Packaging (EPPP) has been established to supply these logo imprinted products to advertising specialty distributors who, in turn, market these products to the end user. The Products Elsewares intends to develop an inventory of unique products and drawstring pac kaging products that can add perceived value to those products. These products, which will be sourced from Mexico and the Far East, will be imprinted in-house with various company logos before they are shipped to the distributors. By joining the Advertising Specialties Institute trade association, Elsewares will have print and electronic ac cess to a network of 13,000 to 14,000 ASI-listed advertising specialty distributors, part of a $7 billion a year industry. This ranks only behind television and newsprint in terms of advertising dollars spent. Elsewares will market their products exclusively through these distributors and will not sell directly to end users. Elsewares intends to reac h those distributors through advertisements in trade publications, through an in-house sales force, and a network of salaried and commission-based sales reps. Concurrent with our campaign to market these pac kaging products, we will showcase our line of unique promotional products to the same distributors, thus giving ourselves three sales opportunities: the sale of the promotional product by itself; the sale of some pac kaging products that the distributor can use with promotional items that are purchased from other suppliers; and the sale of our promotional product coupled with our pac kaging. The Market Sales in the advertising specialties industry have been growing at a rate of almost 7% per year for the past dec ade and reac hed over $7 billion in sales last year. This is a very mature industry that is crowded with suppliers and distributors. Within that industry, the three suppliers that offer only velour and leatherette drawstring bags did a combined $2,500,000 in sales. Those three suppliers are loc ated on the East Coast while some of largest advertising specialty distributors in the industry are Midwest and West Coast firms. We feel that by concentrating our efforts on marketing to the West Coast distributors, many of which already have had positive business relationships with our personnel, we will ac quire a significant market share of the pac kaging niche over the next three years. Financial Considerations A portion of our initial startup costs will be used to purchase inventory, office equipment, and imprinting mac hinery. The balance will be used for catalog costs and initial advertising expenses. Additionally, we project the need for additional financial commitment to finance receivables and payroll expenses for the first 12 months of operation. Elsewares intends to concentrate its sales force in the western United States and to reac h a respec table sales level by the end of Year 2. With our per month fixed cost estimate and Page 1

Elsewares Promotional Productsanticipated monthly unit sales we should hit running monthly break-even after the fourth month. Elsewares is seeking a financial pac kage based on a note due in five years, but amortized over 15 years. The note will be personally guaranteed by the founder's assets. By amortizing the note over 15 years, the company will be afforded the opportunity to establish a healthy trac k record which will enable the company to seek alternate financing for the balance. It should be noted that the owners of Elsewares do not intend to take any profits out of the business until the long-term debt has been satisfied. Whatever profits remain after the above debt payments will be used to finance growth, mainly through the ac quisition of additional inventory.

1.1 ObjectivesPresently, the three leading suppliers of imprinted pouches to advertising spec ialty distributors are loc ated on the East Coast and are doing a combined $2,500,000 solely in the sales of pouches. Elsewares intends to concentrate its sales force in the western United States and to reac h a respectable sales level by the end of Year 2. Elsewares intends to fac tor our growth by diversifying into unique promotional product offerings which will be attrac tive as advertising specialties in their own right, or pac kaged in a drawstring pouch which we can also provide.

1.2 MissionElsewares intends to develop an inventory of unique products and drawstring pac kaging products that can add perceived value to those products. These products, which will be sourced from Mexico and the Far East, will be imprinted in-house with various company logos before they are shipped to the distributors. By joining the Advertising Specialties Institute trade association, Elsewares will have print and Page 2

Elsewares Promotional Productselectronic ac cess to a network of 13,000 to 14,000 ASI-listed advertising specialty distributors, part of a $7 billion a year industry. This ranks only behind television and newsprint in terms of advertising dollars spent. Elsewares will market their products exclusively through these distributors and will not sell directly to end users. Elsewares intends to reac h those distributors through advertisements in trade publications, through an in-house sales force, and a network of salaried and commission-based sales reps.

1.3 Keys to SuccessElsewares management believes that it has the right products and the right people to attrac t a loyal customer base. But most importantly, it is our business philosophy that will ensure success. The advertising spec ialty industry demands that products be delivered on time and with high quality imprinting. Pursuant to these demands: Elsewares will satisfy this demand by maintaining ac ceptable inventory levels that will be delivered on time ac cording to pre-arranged shipping schedules. Elsewares will institute a quality control proc edure for overseeing the on-site imprinting fac ility to ensure an ac ceptable imprint quality. In addition to offering a complete line of velour pac kaging products, Elsewares will offer a unique line of promotional products that will encourage advertising specialty distributors to think of our company first when looking for original products.

2.0 Company SummaryElsewares is a new company to be established based on this plan.

2.1 Start-up SummaryOur initial startup costs will include the purchase of inventory, office equipment, and imprinting mac hinery, as well as catalog costs and initial advertising expenses. Additionally, we project the need for a further financial commitment to finance receivables and payroll expenses for the first 12 months of operation.

4.0 Market Analysis SummaryBy definition, the advertising specialties industry deals with the sale of promotional products. These products can be prac tical, informative, entertaining and/or dec orative products most often imprinted with the sponsoring advertiser's name, logo, slogan, or message, and almost always retained and appreciated by the end recipients who received them free of charge. Sales in the advertising specialties industry have been growing at a rate of almost 7% per year since 1988 and reac hed over $7 billion in sales last year. Within that industry, the three suppliers that offer only velour and leatherette drawstring bags did a combined $2,500,000 in sales. Those three suppliers are loc ated on the East Coast while some of largest advertising spec ialty distributors in the industry are Midwest and West Coast firms. We feel that by concentrating our efforts on marketing to the West Coast distributors, many of which already have had positive business relationships with our personnel, we will ac quire a significant market share of the pac kaging niche over the next three years. Concurrent with our campaign to market these pac kaging products, we will showcase our line of unique promotional products to the same distributors, thus giving ourselves three sales opportunities: the sale of the promotional product by itself; the sale of some pac kaging products that the distributor can use with promotional items that are purchased from other suppliers; and the sale of our promotional product coupled with our pac kaging.

Elsewares Promotional Products4.2 Industry AnalysisAs you may expec t, we will be entering a very mature industry that is crowded with suppliers and distributors. As with any product-oriented business, it is important to maintain a competitively priced product line. The safest way to increase overall margins will be to continuously introduce new products which will remain exclusive offerings for a period of time. When the competition has found a way to source similar products, the margins will adjust downward, driven by competitive market forces. It will be critical for Elsewares to keep one step ahead of the competition by having a new product ready for introduction when the margins slip. Thus, a new cycle of disc overy will begin. We intend to be the originators and not the imitators. Service and support may ac tually be more important to a majority of distributors than price points. After all, they are putting their reputations on the line when they afford our company the opportunity to fulfill their clients needs. On-time delivery of quality imprinted product will be crucial to our success.

5.0 Strategy and Implementation SummaryOur marketing strategy is to get our foot in the distributor's door by offering them drawstring pouches as pac kaging products to add to the perceived value and profit on the promotional products they have already sold. Once we have established a business relationship and they have had a positive customer service experience with our company, we intend to offer them products in addition to the pac kaging items.

5.1 Marketing StrategyWe intend to foc us on Midwest and West Coast distributors who have had to look to the East Coast as the only source of supply for their bag needs. Along with our on-time shipping commitment, we will foc us on the quality and durability of our imprinting proc ess, guaranteeing their quality so that distributors can ensure their clients that their message will be around for a while.

5.1.1 Promotion StrategyAll advertising will be disseminated through ASI publications. This will pinpoint the only market that we are attempting to reac h, ASI listed distributors. We must market the product successfully to the distributor so that it is appealing enough for him to turn around and market it to the end user.

5.1.2 Distribution StrategyElsewares will sell its products exclusively through ASI listed distributors. Because many specialty advertising distributors are wary of doing business with suppliers whom they believe to be Page 9

Elsewares Promotional Products"dealing direct", all direct inquiries will be directed to a distributor with whom we already have a business relationship. Distributors invest a significant portion of their selling time to finding, sc reening and qualifying spec ialty advertising buyers and convincing them that the suppliers products have a plac e and purpose in their ac tivities, and are consequently predisposed to avoid doing business with suppliers who compete with them.

5.1.3 Service and SupportOffering the highest level of customer service to our distributor network will be crucial to Elsewares' long-term success. Logo imprints will have to be of the highest quality and product shipping deadlines must be met. Because products will always be bought for a spec ific event or promotion, it will be important to support the distributors in resolving any legitimate conflicts between them and the end user.

5.1.4 Marketing ProgramsOur main marketing program will revolve around the plac ement of our full line, full color catalog and price list in The Counselor which is the industry's leading trade magazine of news, new products and market trends. This magazine is mailed to the over 13,0000 advertising specialty distributors listed with ASI. Reprints, with additional information about our company, will be mailed out approximately two weeks later to these same distributors as well as our own sales reps, offering samples of both our products and imprinting capabilities. Secondly, the same catalog will be plac ed in the next annual edition of Media File which is a compilation of full page ads of participating suppliers. This catalog is sent to the ASI distributors who in turn give it to their sales people to use when offering various products to the end user. In some cases, distributors also give these catalogs to buyers who do a large volume of business with them. Thirdly, as Elsewares brings new products into their line before the next annual catalog is printed and distributed, we will introduce these products to the advertising spec ialty industry through postcards featuring the product on one side and our mailing address on the other. These cards are bundled with other supplier cards for mailing and then bound into The Counselor magazine about six weeks later. Elsewares will also only hire industry experienced sales reps of the highest caliber. In many cases, they will be the only representatives to call on distributors in person and will subsequently leave a lasting impression of our company. They will not be expec ted to close sales, but will be expec ted to represent our products in a competitive atmosphere. Their loyalty will be courted and rewarded through a compensation pac kage combining both a salary and commission.

5.1.5 Pricing StrategyIn the fifty years of business experience that we have ac cumulated, one message rings true: someone can always beat you on price. Therefore, our pricing strategy is to be competitive within the various product categories, but not to rely on the selling price to overshadow the other advantages of doing business with our company. We will sell ourselves on the basis of a quality-made, unique product line which is reasonably priced and bac ked by an extraordinary Page 10

Elsewares Promotional Productscustomer service department. The products will be chec ked prior to shipment and all promised shipping deadlines will be met.

5.2 Sales StrategyBecause Elsewares is a new entity, we understand that we will have to prove our company's worth to distributors in order to earn their respec t and business. Elsewares will promptly honor all dealer requests for product and imprinting samples. We will offer a toll-free 800 number phone line and have a full-time, dedicated customer service person to meet distributors' needs. While the network of sales reps is bringing our product line to the attention of the ASI listed distributors, our in-house sales department will be calling on some of the larger West Coast distributors. We have hired a consultant who has had ongoing business relationships with many of these distributors over the last 24 years and we are counting on him to help us meet our sales objectives right from the start.

Edie Greenbaum: President and founder. Mrs. Greenbaum ran the financial department for a start-up retail operation whose sales rose to just under one million dollars in seven years. She has also spent the last year and a half heading up the sales department of an ASI listed advertising specialties supplier. Mrs. Greenbaum holds a B.A. from U.C.L.A., is married, and is the mother of one child. Gary Greenbaum: Co-founder. Mr. Greenbaum ran the day-to-day operations of the previously mentioned retail operation as a partner with Mrs. Greenbaum. Mr. Greenbaum holds a B.A. from Franklin & Marshal College, is married, and is the father of one child. Marvin Rosenbaum: Consultant. Mr. Rosenbaum has been associated with the Advertising Specialties industry for just under 25 years and holds the credentials of a C.A.S. or Certified Advertising Specialist. Over the years, Mr. Rosenbaum has been hired by both suppliers and distributors that are either starting a new company, as we are, or that are attempting to penetrate the advertising specialties market with products they are already distributing to other markets. Mr. Rosenbaum has been responsible for the successful entry of many companies into this industry and has maintained extensive business contac ts with many of the industry leaders. Mr. Rosenbaum is married and is the father of two children.

6.1 Personnel PlanThe cornerstone of the personnel plan is to maximize production and minimize the labor burden Page 15

Elsewares Promotional Productson the company's operating expenses. Pursuant to that goal, the initial payroll will consist of the following disbursements: Until increases in sales can support additional salaries, Edie Greenbaum will oversee the operations of Elsewares in an unsalaried position. Mrs. Greenbaum will be responsible for the day-to-day operations including personnel company policies, as well as overseeing the sales and marketing departments. The sales and marketing department will be headed by Marvin Rosenbaum who has been hired as an independent consultant. Mr. Rosenbaum will be responsible for initiating new leads with the ASI distributor network and for re-establishing existing contac ts with distributors with whom he has had a previous business relationship. Mr. Rosenbaum will also oversee the network of commissions based sales reps who will call on distributors in their pre-assigned territories. The sales department will be supplemented by Edie Greenbaum, who will also be responsible for calling on distributors as directed by Mr. Rosenbaum. Mr. Greenbaum will be responsible for running the customer service department, which will include handling phone orders and catalog requests. Additionally, Mr. Greenbaum will be responsible for running the company's computer operations and is expec ted to play an important role in sourcing new products. Until increases in sales justify the additional staffing of this department, Mr. Greenbaum will be responsible for assorted secretarial duties in addition to the previously mentioned duties. We are projecting the division of this department into two positions at approximately the fourteenth month of business. Mr. Greenbaum will then shift his duties to marketing and sourcing, and a new employee will take over the customer service department and its related duties. Elsewares will rely on part-time help for its imprinting, warehousing, and shipping labor requirements. Naturally, as the need arises, this all-encompassing area will be split into two departments. A full-time production person will run the imprinting department, while a second person will be hired to handle both shipping and receiving. We are projecting the need for this additional labor burden at approximately the eleventh month of business.

7.0 Financial PlanElsewares is seeking a financial pac kage based on a note due in five years, but amortized over 15 years. The note will be personally guaranteed by the Greenbaums' assets. By amortizing the note over 15 years, the company will be afforded the opportunity to establish a healthy trac k record which will enable the company to seek alternate financing for the balance. In light of that strategy, Elsewares proposes the following paybac k sc hedule: Months Months Months Months 1-12: No paybac k of principal or interest 13-24: 15% interest plus 10% net profit 25-48: 10% interest plus 15% net profit 49-60: 10% interest plus 20% net profit

It should be noted that the owners of Elsewares do not intend to take any profits out of the business until the long-term debt has been satisfied. Whatever profits remain after the above debt payments will be used to finance growth, mainly through the ac quisition of additional inventory.

7.1 Important Assumptions

Page 17

Elsewares Promotional ProductsGeneral assumptions for this plan are on the following table.

Table: General AssumptionsGeneral Assumptions Plan Month Current Interest Rate Long-term Interest Rate Tax Rate Other Year 1 1 10.00% 10.00% 0.00% 0 Year 2 2 10.00% 10.00% 0.00% 0 Year 3 3 10.00% 10.00% 0.00% 0

7.2 Key Financial IndicatorsThe most important indicator in our case is inventory turnover. We have to make sure that our inventory of drawstring bags and any other pac kaging products turns over a minimum of five times to avoid a negative impac t on our cost of goods sold and on our cash flow. Collection Days: These are very important. It may be nec essary to implement a variety of payment terms with different distributors, depending on their payment history. In extreme cases, prepayment of orders may be the only extendible terms. We will rely heavily on our subsc ription to the ASI Credit Service for this valuable pre-sale information. Gross Margins: We must maintain gross margins of 90% at the least, and hold marketing costs to no more than 20% of sales.

7.3 Break-even AnalysisPage 18
