or moving application.
Tomo will benefit from
• Customer potential in an untapped market
• Projected growth in small businesses and their requirement
for cost-effective, time-saving equipment
• An aging population that requires effective, easy-to-use
equipment to assist with heavy tasks
• Unique product idea that is not saturated with competition

Target Market

15. Renovation spending has been by far the fastest growing component of
residential investment in U.S and Canada over the past decade, significantly
outpacing the growth in new construction and home resale-related outlays.
Rising home prices and existing home sales are expected to drive demand
for repairs and remodeling projects over the next five years. Handyman
service franchises are expected to benefit from this trend as well.
Tomo is designed to alleviate stress and save time conducting essential
supplies and equipment related to renovation and repair.
Target Market
Home Improvement
Tomo potential application for homeowner
and small business renovation and repair

16. For companies that require moving and hauling of product, Tomo is an
effective, time-saving and affordable tool to have on the floor and on the
move. The cost is minimal in comparison to typical motorized pallet trucks,
making it an asset to the companies overall work efficiency.
Moving companies, distributor warehouses, as well as consumers benefit from
Tomo’s easy and compact motorized hauling features and accessories.
Target Market
Moving & Storage
Tomo potential application for homeowner and small product
distributors, pick-and-pack, warehouse, and storage facilities

17. Although research indicates slow retail growth in ornamental gardening,
homeowners are spending and investing more time in food gardens.
The Hydroponic Growing Equipment Stores industry has been rapidly expanding
during the past five years. Spurring demand from hydroponic farming operations,
the industry's traditional market, an increased focus on healthy eating and organic
food consumption has encouraged consumers and growers to purchase
hydroponic equipment to produce organic crops.
This means that gardeners are spending more time and effort on large area food
gardens that require maintenance and transport of supplies like compost, soil,
water, and plants. Tomo is an essential motivating tool for this growth industry
because it’s specifically built to cost-effectively, and safely move heavy items
required by every serious and recreational gardener.
Target Market
Lawn & Garden
Tomo potential application for homeowner and
landscape /garden maintenance business services

18. Recreational activities continue to be a mainstay of the North American lifestyle.
Most components of the recreation industry reported significant gains in 2014-
2015. The forecast from the American Recreation Coalition is that recreation
activities will increase as more people seek “high value” vacationing.
Tomo is well suited to all needs associated with moving supplies and equipment.
The ideally designed Golf Bag Carrier accessory is an example of how Tomo
can develop it’s product matrix further to include more accessories suited to
consumer trended needs.

cottages, marinas, golf courses, and more…

emergency services

elderly. One TOMO can be shared between multiple patients making the TOMO system
cost effective in todays economically driven medical market.
Medium Duty, for use in factories, outdoor applications
TOMO with more power would fill a gap in the low end of the lift truck market, offering
grater value to factory operators and maintenance services. Lower capital cost, multiple
battery charging and lower cost batteries to keep the system flexible and lower
operations costs.
