Overview

Introduction

Following is my vision for the direction the business will take in case of receiving the seed

funding necessary to maintain our cash-flow till the end of the year operating projects described

and getting more specific and selective in the services we provide.

Business Model

• Initial business planning was done by analyzing the model of 2 successful web companies 37Signals and Envato

• Envato.com establishes online communities around specific subjects and creates streams of services and products around it.

• 37Signals.com offers subscription based products that solve specific business problems.

What we have done

• We have created 3 online communities for entrepreneurs, developers and designers

• We’ve developed ideas/prototypes for subscription-based products that solve specific business problems and ready to implement as we allocate necessary resources

• We had been providing web services to maintain our cash flow and invest in our communities and products.

Services

• We currently provide web design, development and marketing services to available client

Community Projects

• While community projects can be looked at as unprofitable, there are a lot of services and products that can be derived from it.

• For Design & Development communities we’re intending to create the Lynda.com of the middle east by having highly qualified professionals recording trainings and making it available in a subscription-based library similar to the famous Lynda.com in Arabic

• Community and e-learning portal for design professionals

• Planned to be launched after Egypreneur 1700+ Twitter followers

DesignTemple

DeveloperMan

• Community for software/web/mobile developers

• Active on social media with good exposure 1000+ twitter followers

Online Training Library

• Community projects are expected to generate beneficial content that’s not organized in training programs.

• Having access to professionals through our communities we can develop well-structured screen-casting materials and offer it for a subscription and license it in different ways.

Example: http://lynda.com

Communities & PlugAndPlay

• Using PlugAndPlay Facilities to operate these community projects and accordingly helping MENA professionals gain exposure and get connected with industry outside their borders would boost their image and the industry in the region.

• Brands DeveloperMan and DesignTemple are meant to be global – events, gatherings and content can be developed anywhere.

Possible Products

• We have developed different product ideas that we can study more in-depth and implement one-by-one upon availability of resources

– MENA Social Business Network

– ToastMasters iPad/Mobile Application

– Billboard Map

– Dress shops / Social Media Integration

Social Business Network

• We’ve identified that there is an unfulfilled need in social networks used in the region and that’s of mixing the seriousness of doing business with fluid social interaction.

• Network to build can be used as the networking platform for our projects.

• Subscription-based plans with extra services like SEO & access to Marketplace can be offered

ToastMasters App

• ToastMasters is an international organization for public speaking with over 260,000 members across the globe

• Being a member of ToastMasters for 2 years periodic meetings still lack a complete solution to manage club activities

• Proposed iPad and mobile application to manage ToastMasters meetings more effectively.

Billboard Map

• Web/Mobile/iPad Application to work as an intermediate between Billboard advertisers and agencies owning the boards.

• Providing information about availability of Billboards and ability to pick specific number of Billboards

• We’ll handle the intermediary process between advertisers and agencies

Dress Shops and Social Media

• While trying different dresses Instantly post photos to social media sites for feedback from friends across twitter/facebook and/or your email inbox or account on store site.

• From eHow “If you're allowed, take a camera (preferably digital)

with you to take snapshots of the dresses you love the most so you can keep a record of them. You'll probably try on many dresses during your search, and you'll probably quickly forget the details of each dress as you try on the next one you love.”

Will make it possible for the shop to take care of this.

Thank you!
