Transcript: In these recession times pets are just another high cost in our day to day lives that cannot be avoided,they need food, shelter etc. The cost to buy a pet in this current climate is also very dear and that is only the start to the money you will be paying out for the upkeep of the animal. although the cost is high so many men, women and children long to have a pet to look after, or simply want a "companion". The 2011 census claim there are 1, 994, 845 individual households in Ireland and an estimated 60% of these house holds have either a pet dog or a pet cat. That is 1, 196, 907 households that have a pet, in these economic times and the cost of having a pet has begun to hit home. A pure breed dog will cost between €300.00 - €1000.00. "MyBrick" costs only €25.00! Pet insurance for a dog ranges between €15.00 -€25.00 a month. "MyBrick" will not suffer from any diseases. A pet dog will take months to be properly house trained and during this period it will use your house as one large toilet and destroy all your shoes. "MyBrick"comes 100% house trained. "MyBrick" is very strong as it is made of concrete and gravel but if he does break within 5 years of purchase we will replace "MyBrick". we also plan to make accessories for your "MyBrick" so you can make it different to all other "MyBricks"! The accessories we have invented up to date are as follows: 1.Brick buggie 2.Brick bling 3.A lead 4.Paint MyBrick RRP €25 Wholesale €15 Our production cost including packaging is €5 This means we make a gross profit of €10 on each MyBrick. Our start-up cost for the first year is €450,000, we have spent €50,000 of our own savings. Year 1 will make a loss of €51,040. This is due to the start-up costs. Year 2 we make profit of €650, 000 (investor receives €130,000) Year 3 will make a profit of €1,500,000 (Investor receives €300,000) Yearly projections. Year 1 - 39,896 MyBricks sold representing 10% of the available market. Turnover €598,440 Gross Profit €398,960 Year 2 - 119,690 MyBricks sold representing 30% of the available market. Turnover €1,795,350 Gross Profit €1,196,900 Year 3 - 239,381 MyBricks sold representing 60% of the available market. Turnover €3,590,715 Gross Profit € 2,393,810 (Turnover is based at selling wholesale) In 3 years we hope to have a "MyBrick" in 30% of the homes in Ireland. the great thing about "MyBrick" is that every member of the familycan have their own pet! That gives us a market of 398, 969 households and we can sell 3, 4, 5 "MyBricks'" to each household. My Brick At end of year 3 we expect to have full Irish market penetration and we will move into the UK, German and Spanish markets. By year 6 we hope to be in all major European markets and will start to look at the US, Japanese, Korean and Chinese markets we have invented an affordable, recession proof pet that every man, woman and child can afford to have. It is deemed cruel to paint your cat or dog. It is fun to paint your "MyBrick"! we have come up with a solution! This means that the investor will be in profit at the end of year 3. When we move into the UK, European and eventually US/Asian markets the investor stands to make a fortune. Our product is called "MyBrick" we are offering 20% of our business for €400, 000.
