COMPETITION
"leaders never look over their shoulders when blazing trails"
The Company holds an important advantage due to its registration as a Discount Medical
Provider Organization (“DMPO”) in 44 states. This accreditation is a requirement to operate in this
healthcare benefit sector and more importantly; new registrations are no longer being granted, providing
a significant barrier to entry for new competitors. Nationally, there are a limited number of registered
DMPO’s that can provide both retail and wholesale membership plans. This distinctive licensing enables
the Company to market their proprietary products rather than those of a 3rd party, limiting the Company’s
cost of goods to approximately 5%.
Unlike the companies below, Company X is the only company that sells directly to consumers. These companies only sell on a wholesale basis through resellers.

GROWTH INITIATIVES
MEMBERSHIP INCREASE FACTORS
• Launch Wholesale Division – The Management team has experience building companies with provider networks in addition to experience marketing membership benefit programs for organizations as well as large enterprises (e.g.: Chase, United Airways, and American Express). This B2B operating and selling expertise will help establish a successful wholesale division that leverages the healthcare provider networks of the direct selling division.
• Revitalize IBO’s to Increase Sales & New IBC recruiting - Company X has not introduced fresh compensation plans since January 2012. Management will initiate new compensation and exciting new incentive programs for Independent Business Consultants that will significantly improve their earnings. Compensation plans will include rewards and recognition programs to improve IBC retention and recruiting efforts.
• Reinvigorate Company Leaders and Employees - Company X has a critical mass of tenured sales managers, which with proper leadership, recognition, and incentives, will be easily motivated to grow the business. In addition, the Management Team, through its relationships, will attract new professionals to the business, returning the Company to a state of aggressive growth.
• Revamp Company’s Image & Brand – A refreshed website, mobile app and social media presence will be launched in conjunction with a marketing campaign that supports the execution of brand alignment with revised growth goals. New image and brand awareness will ensure Company X attracts the correct target customer ensuring a greater percentage of closures per lead.
• Increased Marketing and Advertising – To expand reach and engage new members, Management will leverage innovative Internet technologies and social media marketing methodologies like search engine optimization, programmatic marketing, product placement ads and other web-based marketing strategies. Historically, the Company has not deployed these types of marketing techniques.
• Reinvigorate Existing Members – The Company does not have a history of delivering new and relevant products or services to their membership. Management will launch beneficial new products and services and provide a future forward mobile app for members to utilize in addition to improved website experiences and customer service.
• Reactivate Dormant Members – Historically, the company has not re-marketed to members who have cancelled their monthly subscription or eliminated a product or service. Management will implement an aggressive campaign to win back lost members and product cancellations.
• Grow Geographically – The Company’s IBC network is currently focused in 44 states, with IBCs in major cities. An immediate opportunity for Company X to execute on growth is to expand its provider base into second tier markets and further penetrate its existing territory. Management believes the portfolio of new products and services will be especially effective in secondary markets where consumers have fewer physician choices.
• Expand Provider Networks – While the Company currently maintains an extensive provider network, Management growth plans include expansion of providers in current markets and the addition of providers as the Company expands into tier 2 markets.
• Enhance Member’s Customer Service – With 100+ years of cumulative service delivery expertise, Management will ensure Customer Service excellence is cornerstone of operations, marketing and execution. Implementing and executing new standards of customer service will improve member retention and overall corporate brand image.
• Expanding Market Coverage into Spanish-Speaking Members – Another goal is to leverage the rapid demographic growth, and sell directly to the ever-growing Spanish population who need our services. We will take the necessary steps in development and support to acquire these new customers, including a Spanish version of the website and mobile app.
