The team presents their app Overlock, which allows parents to monitor and limit their children's phone usage. Their target market is English-speaking mothers in the US with children aged 10-17. Overlock aims to address the problem of phones distracting children from school and family. If funded, the $25,000 investment would provide 5% equity in the company.

I. Business Overview (Dawson Sihavong)
A. Introduce Team 1. Good Morning Investors. I’m Christina Weakley our Chief Marketing Officer, I’m Gilbert the App Developer, I’m Tyler the Web Developer, and I’m Dawson Sihavong the team’s Chief Executive Officer. B. Elevator Pitch 1. Now I bet that most of you know how troublesome these can be *Shakes phone*. They come out in the wrong place, at the wrong time, and as you probably already know, it can be especially problematic for your child. The worst part is, most of the time, you aren’t even aware of it! The time spent on their smartphones is wasting away the little amount of time they have in school before they go out into the real world! Well, those times of uncertainty are now over! With our app, you can buckle down on the phone distractions and get back on track with what really matters, whether that be school, family, or life in general. So get your child get back on track with Overlock. a) Troublesome phones coming out at the wrong everything b) Not aware of phones taking up precious time c) Talk about OverLock C. Identify Problem and Solution 1. From my personal experience as a high school student, it bothers me when there are other kids on their phones, causing disruption to workflow and distractions of all kinds. It’s not only on the high school level either. From a local study that we conducted on around 30+ college students, over 90% of them stated that they used their phones during class, primarily for social media, and they have it on them 24/7. We are here to help fix that with our app Overlock, being able to lock away the cause of their distractions one app at a time. a) Personal experience with annoyances (think eunice) b) Talk about college findings c) Tell audience about Overlock stuff D. Customer Segment 1. To realize this, it is important to know who we’re helping and start from there. Our target market is all English speaking mothers in the United states that have an income of ~35k per year, are 30+, and have children of 10-17 years of age. E. List Competition / UVP 1. Speaking of age, it’s about time to get an update on your old child monitoring services, and here’s why. Why we are unique from our competition, Our Pact and Choremonster, is our user friendly interface and our multiple layers of customization to meet everyone’s needs. We’ll get back to our competitors in a moment, but now it’s time to go over some important information regarding Overlocks Investment highlights. II. Investment Highlights A. Market Size - SAM and TAM (Tyler Edwards) 1. So, why should you invest into OverLock? Well for one, our market is very vast. Over 1.5 Billion people around the world know English. That’s 20% of the earth's population! Pretty big number, but a bit too big to work with atm. So we narrowed down our search, focusing on 22% of the world's population living in the US and 26% of them being english speaking mothers, leaving us with approximately 85.5 million total # of buyers making up our Total Addressable Market. From here, we made some logical assumptions paired with data provided from the US Census, bringing our Serviceable addressable market down to 33 million people. B. Differentiation Points - competitive analysis / UVP details (Gilbert De La Cruz) 1. As for our competitors, there are very few. Our two competitors are, on our left, ChoreMonster and on our right, OurPact. ChoreMonster is our indirect competitor. This is because ChoreMonster has a age demographic for mothers with kids aged 6-12, in comparison to our 10-17 demographic, and we consider them as a indirect competitor because the main use of the ChoreMonster app itself is to make sure kids do their chores, and only chores. On the other hand, there is Ourpact, the competitor we consider the “watered down version of us”, for they have the basic fundamentals of the what we have, such as being able to lock apps, but are missing the features such as the app statistics page we have. Also, according to their reviews on the Google Play Store, they aren’t doing so swell, with a 2.6 rating out of 10, with 50,000 downloads. 2. OurPact - Ourpact, which we consider 3. App Statistics: Allows users to view and know: Amount of time spent on individual apps, What time periods of the day spent on the app, Whether the app is being used with Data usage or an Internet Connection. 4. Considerable Price. 5. Tracking/Locating Device. 6. BabySitting Feature: Allows BabySitters to use the app with limitations decided by the parents. C. Early Results - MVP findings, adjustments made (Tyler Edwards) 1. At over-lock.com, our website, we’ve been collecting data on the rate of conversion from visitors of our website to people sign up for our newsletter. We found that people are following our newsletter and going to our website so we didn't think there was a reason to pivot. D. Ability to Generate Revenue - marketing plan, sales plan,... (Christy Weakley & Dawson Sihavong) 1. Our marketing plan includes a bi-monthly newsletter, that you can sign up for on our webpage. And our social media which is comprised of Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. Most of our followers are concentrated on Instagram so this is where we get most of our customers from. Later on we plan to get Adwords and focus more on Facebook, which is primarily where our target audience is. 2. How we plan on generating revenue is by people paying for our three plans. As you can see, we have a $4.99, $12.99, $49.99 plan, varied in price and length of subscription. Our predictions are, based on 2 other surveys that we conducted, that 60% of our customer base will be buying the product and all of it’s features while the other 40% will be using the free plan. 3. Our actual estimates for gaining these customers can be found on pages 5 and 6 of our investor packets. By the end of year one, we are estimating having 5000 active users on our apps. And after 5 years we are expecting our customer base to grow to be 26,000 users. E. Financial Projections - model and summary (Christy Weakley) 1. We plan on reaching ~$150,000 in the first year and by year 5 and it will be 2X that at ~$300,000. This data is based on the average of the three pricing plans over twelve months at a 2% growth rate. III. Required Capital A. Total $$ Requested for % ownership (Dawson Sihavong) 1. We’re requesting $25,000 in exchange for 5% of our company. B. Proposed Structure (Dawson Sihavong) 1. We’re requesting $25,000 in exchange for 5% of our company based on our pre money valuation for Overlock is $600,000. And our post money valuation of $625,000. C. Uses of Funds - budgets (Christy Weakley) 1. We plan to use these funds to buy a new laptop for our app developer, $10,00 going towards professional app development, our domain name, web hosting, adwords, and app store hosting costs. As well as a liquidity cushion of $10,000. D. Exit Strategy (Gilbert De La Cruz) 1. Sell app at year 5 to a strategic buyer. E. ‘Capital Contribution’ from BitWise 1.
