Our Business• We are a mobile application and e-book advertising service
that allows mobile application developers and e-book publishers to advertise through our kiosks located at the most highly trafficked areas
• Our website will allow customers to get information on different mobile applications that we advertise and where our kiosks can be found
• Currently, there is no “try before you download” experience for mobile applications, and our kiosks facilitate it through the mounted tablet computers
• It can be challenging for small application developers to get noticed in the market, and our service allows them to develop their reputation

directly associated with mobile application• Businesses that use mobile applications as a valuable complement to
their other channels of business• 15,000 mobile applications are created each week• Our service enables advertisers to advertise applications that are
only relevant to a particular area• Mobile application developers spend an average of $1.63 to
attract a new user• Developers spent $2.6 billion advertising their applications in 2012• Willingness to pay a modest premium for the given visibility because
they will value our “Try Before you Buy Experience”

Our Solution• Each location will have a sufficient amount of space for 200 to
600 advertisement card spaces• Each application will have a box that holds cards that have a
width of 2.05” and a length of 3.54”• Boxes will be made such that the box will cover 2.88” of the
card, which means that 0.66” of the card will be visible• Four tablets will be secured to each display• Two tablets will be Android tablets• Two tablets will be iPad tablets
• We will have an advertising banner from a national advertising sponsor on high, tough to reach spots• Dependent upon restrictions on how high we can build a display
and advertiser interest
Performance• Mobile application developers who we have spoken to are
interested in the service, and would be willing to pay $150 per month per kiosk for advertising with us
• Local businesses are similarly interested in advertising with us at $150 per month per kiosk
Competitive Advantages• “Try before you download” experience• Localized advertising that can be customized at each kiosk• A/B testing is easily achievable
• Extremely effective in high traffic areas• Advertising cards make it easy to share new and interesting
mobile applications• Advertising campaigns can be easily run to accommodate
seasonal business needs
Business Model• $199 for each mobile application advertisement per month
per location• $99 for each e-book advertisement per month per location• Advertising costs are due at five days prior to the beginning of
each month• Pricing will be dynamically managed as it is subject to change
based on demand at each of our locations• 2% churn rate per month is expected• Includes the expected level of season advertising
Website• Our website will allow customers to get information on the
different mobile applications and e-books that we advertise and where our kiosks can be found
• Detailed information and reviews will be available for all of the mobile applications that we advertise
Marketing Strategy• Emphasis put on “Try before you download” experience and
ability to target through geography• Run social media marketing campaigns• Search engine optimization and paid search listings• Directly reach out to key decision makers at larger companies
through InMail on LinkedIn• Showcase our services at events that appeal to them• We plan to gradually expand our initiatives over time through
salespeople who will engage mobile application developers in major cities in the United States
• We will place our own advertisements on vacant spots on our kiosks.
Marketing Strategy• Relatively short sales cycle• Ranges from an immediate sale for independent mobile
application developers to 2-3 weeks for large companies• Average revenue per user is initially expected to be the price
of advertising at one board• Expected to steadily grow as we are able to construct displays at
new locations• Mainly limited to our ability to secure locations with high foot traffic• Partnerships secured with MBTA and major mall operators such as Simon
Malls
• Cost of customer acquistion• $150 per advertisement during 2014• Steadily increased to $200 per advertisement through 2016 to
reinvest profits into growth
Financial Projections – Kiosk Specific Costs• Costs to install a kiosk at an individual location include:• $7000 for the board, which includes fabrication and installation
of the display• $10 each for the individual boxes• $1500 for the two iPad tablets that would be on each display• $800 for the two Android tablets that would be on each display• $.045 for each card printed for each display per month
• 250 cards printed per advertisement
Condensed Pro-Forma Income Statement
• Revenue of $186 million is expected to be equivalent to 6% market share assuming growth rate remains steady

Growth Plans• We plan to open 9 locations by the end of 2014, 45 locations
by the end of 2015, 93 locations by the end of 2016, and 165 by the end of 2017
• Factors that may change growth in kiosk locations• Our clients’ appetites to advertise at additional locations• Leasing costs at high foot traffic locations• Occupancy rate of existing boards
Risks• Our attrition rate may change depending on a number of
uncontrollable factors• Overall economic environment• Changes in revenue of mobile application companies, and other
companies who use mobile applications as a channel of doing business• We may need to supply each mobile application being advertised at
our displays with more than 250 cards per month to keep clients satisfied
• The amount of people who decide to download a mobile application or take a card may be lower than our projections
• Changes in the foot traffic at a particular kiosk may affect the number of downloads of certain mobile applications
• Rent for our kiosk locations may increase• Our displays’ abilities to remain at a location may be affected by our
relationship with our landlord
Exit Strategy• Coinstar can be targeted when we decide to sell the business• Similar business dynamics are present when our business is
compared to their movie rental and coin counting businesses.• Possible synergies would be produced through operating in
similar locations
