IBH PRESENTS COMPANY Y
A 30-year old membership marketing company, operating 10 social clubs in 10 cities across the USA. The company organizes and hosts 30 to 40 events for its members each month in each city. Members have access to the company’s events calendar and RSVP to attend their choice of events. They can attend as many events as they choose each month. Members join to meet new people, have fun, travel and socialize in a fun, safe environment with thousands of other like-minded members. Members simply sign-up, show-up and enjoy.
Members say the club is like having a 24/7 personal social director to enhance their social life and maximize the enjoyment of their free time. The Company, launched in 1987, has a history of success in the membership marketing sector, steady revenue performance and a proven business plan.

COMPETITION
"leaders never look over their shoulders when blazing trails"
The Company has a unique offering in that it provides access to a multitude of organized activities
and events. A related, yet not directly competitive industry segment, would include other membership marketing companies such as golf clubs, country clubs, travel clubs, fitness clubs, etc., which all vie for some of the same social spending dollars. The total competitive market available to Company Y is significant: the membership marketing sector represents a 50B market, with country clubs representing a 23B market segment, and Social Clubs representing a 16B market segment. The Company’s competitive advantage is that it is a very affordable club offering activities and events for everyone.
We call it the all-in-one-club. See sample list of activities and events below.

5 YEAR FINANCIAL PRO FORMA
The Company’s financials indicate a strong, predicable revenue stream. The 5-year projections are based upon market research, an in-depth knowledge of the membership marketing sector and a proven history of successfully scaling existing operating companies.
Growth initiatives considered in the projections include:
30 new cities will be launched over the next 36 months depending on growth capital raised:
• Each new city launch requires just 100,000 in growth capital
• Each new city launch takes just 6-months to reach profitability
• Each new city launch requires just 614 members to reach the breakeven point
• Each new city will contribute an additional 1.5mm in revenue within 24-months
• Target market expansion to reach a new demographic
• Cause-based marketing strategy through partnerships with local and national children’s charities
• Retention initiatives to increase the average life of a member beyond the current 15-month average
• Referral marketing strategy to incentivize current members to refer new members
• Reciprocal club strategy to add significant value to existing club memberships
• Significant technological improvements to streamline new member enrollment
• Current and relevant marketing strategies to augment existing radio advertising strategies
1. Between mid 2013 to mid 2014, the Company cut 4 middle management employees, which were not contributing to the overall revenue and effi ciency of the company. These employees made between $70k and $80k per year. These cuts had no negative impact on the Company. Conversely, the cuts allowed the company to (a) be more effi cient; and (b) put more money on the bottom line.
2. During the same time the company invested a lot of money into new systems development and new web development projects, which has made the company much more effi cient, thus allowing it to (in the long term) increase revenue and decrease costs. However, said investment (in the short term) increased expenses and reduced EBITDA.
3. Between mid 2015 to mid 2016, the Company restructured its entire accounting department, which cut costs and dramatically increased the collection of the Company’s receivables, thus significantly increasing revenue.
4. In late 2015, the Company cut its upper management sales director and the Company’s President assumed that role and those responsibilities, which decreased expenses and ultimately increased sales and efficiencies.
5. In late 2015, the Company restructured its membership pricing, which lowered the cost of membership, which in turn, increased sales and profits due to the new lower costs for members to join or re-join the club.
6. In late 2014 the Company hired a media consultant, which helped the Company to reduce its advertising & marketing spend by 10% by eliminating the duplication of advertising in each city. The reduced spend did not decrease the amount of leads and sales, so the savings went directly to the bottom line.
