Description: CenterStep™ is a company that was formed to develop products that capitalize on the Internet Advertising and Sale Industries. These industries are experiencing explosive growth with a projected $204 billion in sales this year and are projected to reach $335 billion by 2012. With the company’s online Search Engine and Universal E-Shopping Rewards Technology, CenterStep is truly one of the very few new companies that can conceivably capture 1% to 2% of the market share, and become another multi-billion dollar Internet company success story. For early stage investors that provide needed capital funds at this time to accelerate company growth, the profit potential is enormous. Below is some addition brief information about the company’s flagship product, the marketing strategy, the competition, and the exciting growth potential. The Company’s Online “E-Shopping Rewards” technology has tremendous growth potential with its cutting edge ability to connect retailers to a vast number of motivated online buyers. Currently there are over 2000 of the finest online merchants participating in CenterStep “E-Shopping Rewards”. Participating retailers include Wal-Mart, Macy’s, Barnes & (URL removed), Circuit City, OfficeMax, (URL removed), PetSmart, Sears, Ebay, and over half of the Top 40 U.S. retailers. Combined these participating retailers are now offering over 10 million discounted products to CenterStep™ “E-Shopping Rewards” users. The competition in “Online Shopping Rewards Providers” is growing very rapidly; and it’s attracting a great deal of attention over the enormous profit potential for a company like CenterStep. Companies like Microsoft, Google, and Yahoo have recently invested 100’s of Millions of dollars into similar systems like CenterStep “Shopping Rewards”, yet their systems have fewer retailers participating and are less user friendly. Moreover, what gives CenterStep “E-Shopping Rewards’ the ability to capture greater market share is unlike all the competition, it’s not limited to one individual network of users. The CenterStep Online “E-Shopping Rewards” technology has the first strike advantage since “E-Shopping Rewards” is a Universal Private Label product, it can be customized for use by online community network groups of all sizes, from the largest networks like MySpace and FaceBook to the smallest of Non-profit originations such as individual churches and schools fund raisers. As a Universal Shopping Rewards provider the opportunity for CenterStep to reach new consumers via networking communities is enormous with a combined customer base of over 600 Million. The company is offering 20% ownership for $10,000,000. An Executive Summary and Private Placement Memorandum with more details is available upon request.
