A Large “Niche” Market

© 2016 LucaLogix, Inc.7

There are 3.4 million storefront businesses in the U.S., most using standalone point-of-sale (POS) and accounting software

Cloud technology is disrupting the POS and accounting software industries, fueling growth. This is particularly true among SMBs• POS units will grow 87% by 2020, driven by the adoption of 25 million tablet POS systems• Small business accounting software (QuickBooks and Xero) will grow 169% by 2020

Small business owners are embracing software• 85% of owners will invest more in software in the next 5 years• 81% say it is important that the software solutions they use work seamlessly together (today, most do not)• Millennials are the next generation of small business; 67% of business owners expect to retire within 10 years

Our Secret: Bookkeeping automation is driven by scalable technology, complemented by contextual awareness• There are 1.7 million bookkeepers in the U.S. performing manual data entry• The accounting services industry generates >$54 billion annually, excluding the Big Four• Effective automation requires complex, “application aware” technology; not a simple integration
