The potential market for FaxZoo products and services is tremendous. Based on the results we have received from the Beta Trials over the past two months, we anticipate signing up a large number of customers. In addition, we have been approached by several marketing companies and worldwide distributors that would like to resell our products to their customers. While some distributors will be marketing the products under the FaxZoo brand name, others will choose to bring it out under their own private label.
The profit margins from FaxZoo will range anywhere from 20% to 25%. There are currently several large companies that are offering similar services. However, we feel that based on our feedback from resellers and distributors, our products offer several more features than our competitors have.
