Executive Summary
The Problem - A major problem concerning the food industry is its lack of quality, all natural
foods in the frozen section of the supermarkets. It seems that everything from hot pockets, to
frozen pizzas, to TV dinners is low quality, bland in flavor, and is filled
with preservatives, unhealthy fats, high levels of sodium and other
unhealthy ingredients. This is evident as rates of obesity, diabetes and
other unhealthy conditions amongst Americans which have clear links
to unhealthy foods are on a perpetual rise. When we examine the potato
pancake segment, we notice that most products in this segment are low
quality, boring, and tasteless. Although the potato pancakes segment is
not all that prominent at the moment, it has enormous potential which can be unlocked by
introducing the right products to the appropriate consumers. After all, people love potatoes, they
are spongy, tasty, comforting and can be healthy when prepared right. The potential for TaTo
Cakes is essentially limitless, as literally tens of millions of Americans can become loyal
consumers of our products within a few short years.
The Solution – Our solution is to introduce an amazing new product that bridges the world of
incredible quality and taste associated with fine dining and the low cost, easy access and
convenience of a frozen food product. The TaTo Cake, a delicious, gourmet potato cake infused
with incredible all natural ingredients and flavors will
revolutionize the potato world and will have an enormous impact
on the industry similar to the French fry, but in a much more
sensational manner. The introduction of this product essentially
unlocks a blue ocean environment for TaTo Company (TTC) to
operate and grow in. TTC will provide consumers with incredible
products, unrivaled in taste and quality and will unlock a blue ocean of potential customers and
growth.
The Ask & The Offer – TaTo Company is offering a 25% stake in the company for $350,000.
Key Points – TaTo Company begins this business proposal by offering all potential consumers of
our products a significant value proposition that provides enormous worth to their lives. Then,
our plan clearly outlines TTC’s mission and vision statements and how the principles that guide
our company align with the interests of society and every day Americans. Further, the plan
provides a detailed analysis of the underlying frozen food segment and performs a competition
assessment. Also, the document discusses our target markets and our thorough 3 stage marketing
strategy. The plan also outlines TTC’s operations and management structure. Additionally, our
proposal provides detailed financial projections going out 5 years into the future that offer
significant insight into our company’s future prospects. Finally, the underlying document

4. 4 TaTo Company
provides comprehensive information regarding the future profitability, valuation and exit
strategy concerning TaTo Company.
Vision & Mission
Vision/Mission - Our Vision is for a healthier world in which people will consume wholesome,
all natural products. Our vision is a healthy, all natural, great tasting potato cake on every
dinner plate and in every lunch box. Our mission is to provide our customers with a choice to
consume an optimal product, a product that is quick and easy to prepare, is healthy, great tasting,
all natural, and inexpensive.
Value Proposition
Value Proposition – TTC delivers enormous
importance to all potential customers by providing
them access to our amazing products. Most
competing products, such as frozen pizzas, hot
pockets, TV dinners, and other potato pancakes are
often bland, high in fat and sodium and are made
with low quality ingredients which include
additives and preservatives. However, our TaTo
Cakes offer customers great taste, high quality ingredients, amazing all natural flavors, as well as
nutritional and health benefits.
Product – TaTo Cakes are extremely easy to prepare, simply heat in an oven, pan, fryer or
microwave. The products will be 95% cooked. The consumer will simply finish cooking the
product the last 5% using any one of the proposed cooking methods. This will only require 5
minutes in a preheated oven, the longest of the four cooking methods. TaTo Cakes will be
available to order online, and will be accessible at many health food store and supermarket
locations. Remarkably Tato Cakes will cost less on a per weight basis than any of its closest
competing products.

5. 5 TaTo Company
Product Line
Products – The first product TTC will offer is going to be The Healthy
Snack Spinach & Zucchini TaTo Cake, which will have spinach and
zucchini as its primary flavors but will also have secondary flavors, such as
parmesan cheese and garlic. The second product TTC will bring to market
will be The Gourmet Sundried Tomato & Goat Cheese TaTo Cake. The
third offering that TTC is going to deliver is going to be The Pizza Time Basil & Buffalo
Mozzarella TaTo Cake. All three of these creations will be released within the first year of
operations. Additional flavors will be launched according to TTC’s production schedule which
plans on releasing a total of at least 8 TaTo Cake flavors within the first three years of
operations.

products (Statista.com).
Competition – TaTo Cakes are in a blue ocean category and do not have any real, direct
competition. There are no gourmet, multi flavored, all natural potato cakes or pancakes in the
frozen food market right now. Consumers currently have access to plain, bland, boring, frozen
potato pancakes or they may occasionally have access to something that can be considered as a
gourmet potato pancake at an upscale restaurant. Our product bridges this gap in the market
place by combining the best of two worlds, the convenience, affordability, and easy access of a
frozen foods product and the high quality and gourmet flavor of an upscale restaurant product.
Other relatively closely competing products include frozen pizzas, lean pockets, frozen French
fries and other frozen meals and snacks. The reason we identify frozen pizzas and products such
as lean pockets as our closest competition as opposed to tater tots, hash browns or other potato
pancakes is due to two reasons. First, TaTo Cakes come in 8 ounce sizes and can be considered a
meal or a considerable portion of one, much like a comparative portion of two hot pockets or
several slices of pizza. Second, TaTo Cakes have cheese, vegetables, meats and sea food and
come in several exciting, colorful flavors. This factor also puts TaTo Cakes in a category closer
to pizzas which share some of these diverse flavors and toppings as opposed to tater tots and
hash browns which are just plain potatoes in most cases.

7. 7 TaTo Company
Porter’s Five Industry Analysis
Threat of New Entrants - The threat of new, competing products always exists. However, most
companies have demonstrated that they are mainly concerned with maximizing profits as
opposed to producing high quality, healthy, all natural
products. Furthermore, a company would need to have the
vision and expertise to create a product that could truly be
competitive with TaTo Cakes.
Threat of Substitutes - Threats of substitutes constantly
exist, however, there are no close substitutes available to TaTo Cakes. Any new competitors
would find it difficult to deliver similar quality at such a low price point, therefore, would not
appear to truly challenge TTCs market position.
Bargaining Power of Buyers - Since there are no direct competitors that offer similar taste,
quality and attributes and the product is priced relatively cheaply when compared to its nearest
competitors, customers have little or on bargaining power in relation to TaTo Cakes.
Bargaining Power of Suppliers - Since all of the ingredients that are used in the preparation of
TaTo Cakes are widely used and massively produced, product suppliers have little or no
bargaining power relative to TaTo Cakes.
Industry Rivalry - The frozen food industry is a huge arena for business in which intense rivalry
does exist. However, this rivalry mainly exists between or amongst extremely close resembling
products such as pizzas and other widely consumed food items. A blue ocean product such as
TaTo Cakes should not be seriously affected by industry rivalry mainly because it operates in
such a massive industry which has sales of over $50
billion and does not have any closely resembling
products.
Industry Changes - An import catalyst for change
within the frozen food industry is the
consumers’ awareness and demand for healthier products. The frozen food industry has an
unfortunate association with unhealthy foods and low quality products, much like fast and junk
foods. Companies are aiming to re gear their products to be or at the
very least appear and seem healthier. There is real demand for
healthy products and companies that can deliver well balanced
products within the frozen foods sector can carve out great market
share for themselves.
Industry Players - The most prominent company in the frozen food industry is Nestle. This
juggernaut is the parent company of DiGiorno, Lean Pockets, as well as other major frozen foods
brands. DiGiorno alone produced revenues north of $1 billion in 2014. Another big player in the

8. 8 TaTo Company
frozen food industry is Red Baron a prominent pizza producer with sales topping $500 million in
2014. Other major brands in this industry include Weight Watchers, California Pizza Kitchen
and others. These companies have strong market positions due to their economies of scale
advantage. This factor especially applies to Nestle, do to
its massive size, seemingly unlimited resources and
enormous market share (Statista.com n.d.).
Rival Strategic Moves - A probable strategic move by
rivals in response to the introduction of TaTo Cakes will be to try to introduce similar products.
Comparable products could come in the form of analogous potato pancake products or they
could come in the form of other healthier products. However, these moves are likely to come
after TaTo Cakes capture some market share in the frozen food industry. By this time TTC
should have ample resources to innovate and stay a few steps ahead of the competition.
Key Factors for Competitive Success - There are several factors concerning competitive success
in this industry in relation to TaTo Company. The first element is creating a truly great
product which is high quality, great tasting and is relatively healthy compared to the competition.
The industry is somewhat short on high quality products and our main objective should be to
create an amazing product for consumers. Another crucial element is to form a comprehensive
strategy that can be implemented with grate precision which will enable a cost effective business
to succeed. Yet another key factor is to be innovative and
to stay ahead of the competition.
Industry Attractiveness - The bottom line is that this
industry is extremely attractive. This is a systemically
important industry for consumers with over $50 billion in
annual revenues. Furthermore, the industry lacks a significant amount of high quality, healthy
products. In addition, the frozen food industry completely lacks any direct competitors to our
proposed product which translates to a great blue ocean for TTC to operate and grow in if we are
successful in implementing our strategy and executing our plan.
Competition Matrix
Distinct Competitive Advantage - At the heart of TaTo Company’s competitive advantage is the
ability to create a unique, blue ocean product, which is priced lower than the competition, is

Strategic Position & Risk Assessment
Strengths & Interests – TaTo Company’s strategic position is strongly supported by the
company’s strengths and interests. Some of our key strengths include product quality, innovative
capabilities, growth potential, simplicity of our business and blue ocean potential. Our main
interest is to provide our consumers with the most amazing
products possible at a fair price.
Industry Trends & Developments - Some of the most promising
industry trends and developments pertain to producing better
quality, and healthier products. This puts our company in a prime strategic position to introduce
products that are unique, great tasting, and healthy. The current atmosphere also allows for
companies to charge higher prices for higher quality and healthier products as opposed to lesser
quality products.
Market Changes & Opportunities - Market forces are continuously changing, and right now they
are evolving the food business into a healthier, more conscious industry, which sets up valuable
opportunities for our company to capitalize on.
Customer Perception Factors - An important element concerning our strategic position is the way
we are perceived by our customers. TTC works extremely hard to create, sustain and project an
image of a company that is clean, healthy, and responsible and that cares first and foremost about
its clients, employees as well as the environment.
Societal Impact – Our products are not only great tasting but are extremely healthy and this can
have an enormously powerful impact on society.
Price – TTC’s products will be priced very fairly, in fact cheaper than most of the closely
competing products. TaTo Cakes will be priced at 19.97 cents per ounce. In comparison most
low quality pizza brands are priced from 20 to 30 cents an ounce and premium brands such as
DiGiorno charge 30 to 45 cents per ounce for most of their pizzas.
Quality – Quality is something TTC’s management takes enormous pride in and it is the
cornerstone of our business. TTC only offer the highest quality products made from the best all

10. 10 TaTo Company
natural ingredients.
Customer Service – There is nothing more important to us than our clients. We offer the highest
quality in customer service through our specially trained product representatives and our call
center specialists.
Risk - Risks are constantly present and additional risks may materialize at any time. There is risk
that the market will not respond well to TTC’s products, risk of competition, risk of our products
not succeeding, risk concerning execution, and financial risk. There are many risks at any given
time, especially in the initial stages of a business. However, there is no substantive indication
that these risks are something to be afraid of; instead, it is simply important to be mindful of
these risks, now that they exist and do everything possible to prevent them from materializing. In
order to prevent such risks from having a negative impact on our company management will be
constantly working on strategies to envision the future and any risks associated with forthcoming
developments. Furthermore, strategies will be developed in advance to deal effectively with any
risks that may materialize in the future.

11. 11 TaTo Company
Target Market
Primary Target Segment – TaTo Company’s target market is the mother/housewife segment
due to several key factors. Our product is first and foremost a healthy, and great tasting
alternative to low quality, and unhealthy frozen food products. Therefore, TaTo Cakes will be
marketed as a healthy, all natural, gourmet food item. The most logical group of potential
consumers to whom our product’s attributes should appeal to is the mother/housewife segment
due to their motherly instincts and their desire to raise healthy offspring and have a healthy
family. The ideal target customer in our segment is, age 18 and onward, middle to upper middle
class family income, and preferably well educated. Some other attributes that are preferable in
our primary target customer is that the person is responsible, has strong family values and is
interested in leading a relatively healthy lifestyle. This primary target market will first be
targeted locally, then on a statewide level, then regionally and eventually nationally.
Secondary Target Segment – TTC’s secondary target market is the kids and teenager segment.
This is an extremely important market segment due to kids and
teenagers being potential early adopters of our products and as a
result becoming lifelong consumers. Kids and teenagers are also
constant consumers of easy to prepare frozen foods and are an ideal
segment to target in regards to our products. This segment will also
be targeted locally in initial stages, then regionally, and ultimately nationally.
Third Target Segment - Our third target market is the broad consumer segment consisting of all
potential customers. Our products can and should be enjoyed by everyone and not just by a
certain group of consumers belonging to a certain, age group or demographic. Some consumer
segments are more important initially, however, in the long run our products should gain the

12. 12 TaTo Company
attention of all shoppers and consumers.
Marketing Plan
Marketing Strategy - TTC’s marketing strategy will have a multipronged approach and initially
will be primarily geared towards our principal target market, the mother and housewife segment
of middle to upper-class income. Since our company is young and lacks extensive funding
capabilities in regards to marketing, we will not be able to incorporate all of the marketing that
we might like in the initial stages of our development. This means we will not be able to film and
run costly TV commercials, we will not be able to take out expensive magazine or newspaper
ads, we will not be able to engage in costly internet ads, however, there are some marketing
channels which we can exploit to get our message out to our target customers.
Stage 1 Marketing
Partner Based Advertising - The initial stage of the marketing
campaign will be geared mostly at TTC’s primary target market
segment. Our products will be primarily sold through intermediaries,

such as retailers, including supermarkets and health food stores. An important part of our initial
marketing strategy will be to create partnerships with retailers which will be able to market our
products to our target segment via store ads, and coupons. This will be beneficial to us as well as
to our retail partners as it will be in our mutual interests to sell as many products as possible.
Word of Mouth Advertising - Another form of marketing that we will
initially partly rely on is word of mouth advertising. Since our product is
unique and is in a blue ocean environment, naturally the early adopters of
our products will rave about them and will pass on the information
regarding the beneficial attributes of our products to their friends,
relatives, and associates. Furthermore, our primary target market is the
wife and housewife segment of middle to upper-class family income, incidentally this is the
perfect demographic group to effectively spread the benefits of our products.
Viral Marketing - Viral marketing is an ideal element that could propel our product into the
proverbial stratosphere. TaTo Company is in a blue ocean environment and thus has the ability to
become a cult brand much like Netflix, or Apple. It is fathomable to imagine that the right
YouTube video involving our product could turn our brand into a household name. This is a
creative initiative that will be developed as time goes on and will be implemented at an
appropriate time.
Direct Mailing and Flyer Marketing - Direct mailing is another form of marketing our company
will implement in the initial stages of our marketing strategy to reach our target consumer.
Special advertising pamphlets with select coupons will be mailed to potential customers in our
primary segment. Additionally, company flyers with select coupons will be handed out to
potential consumers in select retail locations.
Direct Consumer Marketing - Consumers will be able to try our products at select retail locations
as they will be displayed for all interested parties free of charge. This is a very effective form of
marketing as it is relatively inexpensive and has the potential to gain the interest of many
potential customers at the cost of a single bite. Furthermore, these customers have the potential
to become repeat and even lifelong customers.
Stage 2 Marketing
Traditional Advertising/Radio, Print and Internet - In addition to our initial stage marketing
strategies some more traditional forms of marketing will be implemented in the second stage of
the campaign. Throughout this stage our company will make use of relatively inexpensive radio
ads by playing catchy radio ads on local radio stations, will make use of relatively inexpensive
print ads, such as taking out space in local newspapers and will make use of relatively
inexpensive internet advertising.

14. 14 TaTo Company
Promotional Advertising - Another form of marketing we intend to implement at this stage of the
campaign is to hold promotional events during which our products can be sampled and some
select portions will be given away to potential customers. These events will be held at fairs and
various food related events as well as at select partner retail locations. During the second stage
of our marketing campaign we will attempt to attract our second preferred customer segment in
addition to our primary target market consumer.
Stage 3 Marketing
TV Advertising/Advanced Print and Internet Marketing - Although television advertising would
be extremely effective in creating demand for our
products, especially with our secondary consumer segment
it will not be available to us in the initial stages of our
marketing campaign due to the high costs associated with
developing and running TV ads. However, once our
products are introduced on a wide scale and our
company’s cash flow position becomes more favorable,
TV ads will be introduced, especially in relation to targeting our secondary market segment that
is comprised of kids and teenagers.
During the third stage of our marketing campaign we will attempt to attract our third target
market segment in addition to our secondary customer segment as well as our primary target
market consumer segment. Throughout this stage of our marketing strategy our company will
also expand its presence online, by gaining more exposure on the internet through the
development of web based advertising. This strategy is meant to make our products known to a
wider audience and to attract clients to shopping at our internet store.
Another aspect of advertising we will expand in this stage is
print. By taking out full page
ads in newspapers and magazines we will attract a wider
demographic of consumers to our
products. This strategy is especially tactful when attracting
our primary target consumer segment
through placing our ads in cooking and home style
magazines. Our stage three advertising strategies will be
implemented parallel with our stage one and stage two strategies and should serve to gain the
attention of a wide range of consumers in our primary, secondary and broad target market
segments.

company.
Financial Narrative
Executive Summary - TaTo Company, a gourmet potato pancake manufacturer startup will show
a positive net cash flow by month 6 of year 1 of operations. The company will also make a
modest profit for the first year of $5,228. Furthermore, revenues will rise on average 78.75%
year over year (yoy) for the first 5 years. In addition, as operational productivity and efficiencies
improve and operations expand, net income will increase by an average of 212.5% yoy for the
first 5 years. At the end of year 5 TatoCake Company will have a gross profit of $822,400, a net
income of $534,560, and an ending cash balance of $867,175.
Revenues - TatoCake Company revenues are based on 1,000 package blocks. Each package
holds 5 eight ounce cakes and has a sale price of $8.
Therefore, each revenue block is $8,000 and produces 1,000
TaToCake packages. Revenues are projected to pick up
gradually over the first year with first month revenue being
$8,000, second and third month revenues being $16,000 and
last month revenues being $48,000. In total, revenues for year
end 1 are projected to be $376,000, representing 47 blocks of production. As a new plant comes
online and new products are introduced in the beginning of year 2 and production capacity
increases, revenues are projected to rise to $816,000 representing 102 production blocks by year
end 2 of production. Year 3 year over year revenue growth will increase by 53% to $1,248,000,
year 4 yoy revenue will increase by 52.5% to $1,904,000, and year five yoy revenue will
increase by 62% to $3,080,000.
Expenses - Capital expenses in the amount of $30,000 will be used procure, set up and equip the
manufacturing facility. Working capital in the amount of $25,000 will be used to launch
production and sustain it through the first 5 months of operations until TTC reaches its
breakeven point in month 6 of year 1. The working capital will cover salaries and all other
essential expenses needed to sustain operations through the initial production period.
Cash Flow - As production and sales increase cash flow turns positive in month 6 of year 1.
Ending cash balance at the end of year 1 will be $26,855. As production, sales, productivity, and
operational efficiencies increase year 2 yoy cash flow will rise by 96.5% to $52,855, year 3 yoy
cash flow will increase by 107% to $109,405, year 4 yoy cash flow will rise by 179% to
$305,175, and year 5 yoy cash flow will rise by 184% to $867,175.
Burn Rate - TTC will have a gross burn rate of $22,910 a month during the first 5 months of
production which is the projected period before the company’s breakeven point. The net burn
rate for the same period is $5,310 per month.
Cost per Unit - Each block of production consists of 1,000 TaToCake packages containing 5
eight ounce TaToCakes each. Each production block is 40,000 ounces or 2,500 pounds. 2,500
pounds of raw materials required to produce 1 block of TaToCakes has a cost of $950 or $.95 per
one 40-ounce package of TaTo Cakes. All other direct operating costs associated with production

20. 20 TaTo Company
are $4.05 per 1 block of production. The total cost per unit is $5.00, and the selling price is $7.99
per unit.
Competition Comparison - The selling price per package is $7.99 or 19.97 cents per ounce. Low
quality frozen pizza brands typically sell for from 20 to 30 cents per ounce and the so called
premium brands such as DiGiorno and California Pizza Kitchen sell for 30 to 45 cents per ounce.
Marketing & Advertising - Marketing costs are based on a 3 stage
marketing plan that takes aim at certain customer segments in
each phase. The first stage of the plan which will be geared at the
primary mother/house wife segment which incorporates basic
forms of relatively inexpensive advertising will be used during
year 1 and 2 of operations. For these periods marketing costs will
be $36,000 or 9.5% of revenue in year 1 and $ 54,000 or 6.6% of revenue in year 2. In year 3 and
4 our second stage of our marketing plan will be implemented which will also focus more
heavily on promotional and print advertising. For the following periods marketing costs will be
$62,000 or 4.9% of revenue in year 3 and $80,000 or 4.2% of revenue. In year 5 and beyond our
third stage of the marketing plan will be implemented which will also focus on TV ads and will
cost TTC $96,000 or 3.1% of revenues in year 5.
Customer Retention - Our products are fun, exciting, great tasting and healthy, therefore TTC
will have a high customer retention rate. We expect to have approximately 10,000 consumers of
our products at the end of year 1. We expect to attract 15,000 additional customers by the end of
year 2 and we presume TTC will have 22,000 total customers at the end of year 2. Further, we
predict that our products will attract an additional 20,000 new customers by the end of year 3 and
we expect to have a total of 38,000 customers by the end of year 3. This will give our company a
70% customer retention rate at the end of year 2 and an 81.8% retention rate by the end of year 3.
Our goal is to reach the highest retention rate possible and we believe that 90% is completely
attainable by end of year 5. To accomplish our objective, we will continuously strive to improve
our products and our relationships with our customers.
Personnel - Initial production and sales will require 4 full time employees and one supervisor to
monitor, direct and control operations. 3 employees will take care of preparation and production
regarding the products and 1 sales professional will handle the first stages concerning
distribution. The two employees responsible for cooking our products will earn a starting wage
of $12 per hour. The employee responsible for cleaning the dishes will earn an hourly wage of
$10 an hour. The sales professional will earn $15 per hour and additional bonuses, based on
performance. The plant supervisor will have a starting salary of $35,000 per year. Maintenance
and cleaning will be handled by third parties and will be covered by maintenance costs. Product
deliveries will also be handled by third parties and will be covered by shipping costs.
Furthermore, professional services will be retained for services concerning industry professionals
and advisors in areas of sales, marketing, expansion and others. At the end of year 1 TTC will
have no more than 10 full time employees. As we open new operating facilities and increase
production capacity at current facilities new employees will be hired. Full time employees aside

21. 21 TaTo Company
from top management will include production personnel, supervisory personnel and sales
personnel. Full time employee count is projected to be 10 at the end of year 1, 20 at the end of
year 2, 25 at the end of year 3, and 50 at the end of year 5.
Expansion - TTC’s expansion model is based on opening a new operational facility at the
beginning of each year for the first five years. Each production facility will require an investment
in the mount of $30,000 to prepare for operations and purchase all of the required equipment.
Financing - To begin and sustain operations through the initial
stages of production TTC will require $55,000 in capital. Funding
will be secured through long term loan financing at an annual
fixed rate of 7.25%. The next four tranches of $30,000 annual
financing required for expansion will be obtained the same way
through long term loan financing at an annual fixed rate of 7.25%
Sources and Use of Funds - Funding is extremely important for a new business as it provides the
necessary capital to begin operations and keep them going. Several funding methods were
carefully considered when compiling the financial analysis, including multiple funding rounds,
equity financing, long term loans, and convertible debt financing. Although, a combination of
these funding methods is plausible and for certain reasons favorable, only long term loan
financing was used to conduct the financial projections. Under current assumptions TaTo
Company can receive all of the funding necessary to begin, sustain and expand operations by
taking out annual long term loans. If for whatever reason the assumptions change or there is a
problem attaining consistent long term loan financing our company will consider offering equity
or taking on other forms of financing.
Development Plan
Business Vision – Our vision is to create a company that would start
of by becoming the niche leader in the frozen food potato pancake
market. However, with time we would like to develop our products
and bring them to the broader consumer segment, competing with
frozen pizzas, lean pockets and other popular frozen food items. By
innovating and creating new products we would like to become
amongst the market leaders in this industry and would expect to go international within 10 years.
We also expect to become the gold standard in quality amongst our peers and believe we will be
able to continuously grow revenues and profits.
Business Strategy
Market Penetration - Our initial strategy will be focused on market penetration concerning the
frozen food segment. Our products will be made available for sale at local retail locations in the
opening stages of our strategy. As we increase our production capacities our penetration will
branch out to neighboring states, regionally, nationally, internationally, and ultimately globally.

22. 22 TaTo Company
Promotion & Support - Once we get a solid foothold in the frozen food market we will focus on
marketing and support concerning our products. Our multi stage marketing campaign will be
implemented, which will be targeted at the desired consumer segments and will drive demand for
our products.
Expansion - Simultaneously, we will concentrate on our expansion process, offering products
from local, to regional, to national, and ultimately global. Our expansion strategy, which is
correlated with our marketing plan, will focus on bringing our products to new retail location
around the country.
Increase Focus – Our product line will be reevaluated after the first year, certain products will be
kept, some will be enhanced, and some will be exchanged for new products. This will depend on
customer feedback and sales information.
Diversify – In this stage of our plan new products will be released and possible acquisitions
could be made concerning products and or companies which might mesh well with our culture,
product line, and consumer demand.
Go Global – Going global is our ultimate goal. This is a long-term goal, nevertheless, once the
domestic market is close to being fully penetrated our products will be made available in other
countries around the globe.
Refocus – TTC will periodically analyze and reevaluate current products and potential
options regarding our goods. We will continuously focus on our core products and on our core
principles, however, when need be we will reexamine current circumstances to adequately
adapt to any potential changes in the market place.
Continuous Strive for Excellence – A major part of our overall strategy will always be our
perpetual drive to improve efficiency, productivity and to strive for excellence concerning all of
our processes.
Milestones
Future Milestones – Milestones are extremely important to our organization as they will indicate
to investors that our company is achieving its goals and desired objectives. Some of our
significant milestones will include product launches, plant openings, revenue targets, profit
targets, employee hires and expansion targets.
Product Launches – Our first product is to be launched immediately as our core product. Our
second product is to be launched within the first six months of our operations and the third
product launch is to be introduced within the first 12 months. Furthermore, we expect to unveil a
total of 5 products within the first 3 years and introduce a total of 10 products within the first 5
years.
Plant Openings – We plan on opening one plant each year for the first five years to expand our
production capabilities and capture market share. After the first five years our strategy is to open
an additional 20 plants within the next five years.

23. 23 TaTo Company
Revenue & Income Targets – Our revenue target for the end of year 1 is $376,000 and our net
income target is $5,228 for that same period. Our goal is to more than double those revenues by
the end of year 2 and to increase profits nearly 5 fold. We project to increase revenues to
$1,248,000 by the end of year three and to have revenues of $3,080,000 by the end of year five.
We expect our net profit margin to increase to 5.76% by year five and our net income should be
approximately $534,560.
Employee Hires – Our Company plans to have 10 fulltime employees at the end of year 1. This
number is projected to double in the first year. As new plants open, expand, and production
greatly increases our number of employees is projected to rise to 100 by the end of year 5 and
by the end of year 10 our company is projected to have 1,000 fulltime employees.
Expansion Targets – By the end of year one we anticipate our company will have a strong local
and statewide presence providing access for our products in 500 retail locations statewide. By the
end of year 2 we predict to double the amount of retail locations our products can be purchased
at by venturing into neighboring states. By the end of year three we calculate our products will
be present in 2,000 retail location and will have close to fully penetrated the tri state area market
of New York, Massachusetts and Connecticut. By the end of year five our forecast indicates that
our products will be available in 5,000 locations that encompass the greater area of New
England, New York, and New Jersey. Our strategy is to continue to expand and by the end
of year 10 our products should be available in 50,000 locations including the U.S., Canada, and
Mexico.
Exit Plan
Exit Plan - An exit plan is extremely important to us, because this is when
the hard work begins to really pay off. At this point investors get paid,
owners get paid, shareholders get paid, loyal employees get paid, and
anyone else who has a stake in the company gets paid. There are several
favorable ways in which our exit strategy will play out.
Scenario 1 – Acquisition, this situation would consist of a larger company buying our
organization. The main benefit in this situation is that a larger company that wants our operations
in its portfolio will be willing to pay a significant premium to acquire us, and all stakeholders
will be rewarded. However, a drawback is that we would lose control over the direction of the
company and some people, possibly many people will not have a place under new management.
Scenario 2 - Merger (with larger partner), this would be the second most favorable exit plan as it
would provide us with more resources, and some cash and/or stock for the shareholders.
However, we would still lose some control over the company, and its direction. There would also
be new management to report to.
Scenario 3 – Go public, this by far would be the most favorable outcome as there would be an
advantageous reprising of our company’s shares and the stock would become liquid and easily
convertible to cash. Furthermore, current management would be able to maintain control over the

24. 24 TaTo Company
company. Some negatives do exist in the form of increased regulation and accountability to
shareholders.
The Ask & The Deal
What We Need & What are Offering – To begin operations TaTo Company needs a minimum of
$55,000 in startup and working capital. The company will require a total of at least $175,000 in
capital over its first 5 years of operations. We are currently offering 25% of TaTo Company’s
shares for $350,000.
Startup Capital – TaTo Company will need a minimum of $30,000 to set up a suitable location
and to procure all of the necessary supplies and machinery to begin operations.
Working Capital – According to our thorough financial analysis and our operating projections
TTC will require an additional $25,000 to purchase supplies, provide salaries, and to cover any
other expenses essential to sustain operations until we reach our breakeven point. The breakeven
point is estimated to be reached between months 5 and 6 of operations in the first year.
Additional Capital – We project that additional infusions of capital will be required to expand
and grow operations. Our forecasts indicate that for the four following years our company will
require $30,000 annually. In all, the TaTo Company will require a minimum of $175,000 in
financing over the first 5-year period.
Pay off – According to our relatively modest projections our business will have nearly $3.1
million in revenue at the end of year 5 and will produce a net income of $534,560 in that same
year. Year over year net income growth is estimated to be nearly 200% from year end 4 to year
end 5 and if a modest 20 times earnings multiple is used, the TaTo Company will be worth
an estimated $10,691,200 at the end of year 5.
Current Value – We can calculate the current value of the business by applying the businesses’
projected valuation after 5 years and the investor’s required rate of return. Investors who finance
companies in such initial stages usually require a high rate of return on their capital. We can use
a 50% annual benchmark. In order to get today’s value, we take the projected value after 5 years
$10,691,200 and divide it by the required rate of return per year (1+50%) and discount it over 5
years. $10,691,200/(1+50%)5
= $1,407,894. Current value = $1,407,894.
Shares Available – Under current valuations we are offering our potential
investors 25% of shares outstanding in the TaTo Company valued at $351,973
for $350,000. These shares in TaTo Company that are worth $350,000 today
will be worth $2,672,800 at year end 5 of operations which is an impressive
763.5% return on investment.
