PERRYSBURG, OH--(MARKET WIRE)--Oct 28, 2008 -- LD Holdings, Inc., formerly Leisure Direct, Inc., (OTC BB:LDHL.OB - News) announced today that it has gone through a corporate name change to reflect its new strategic direction towards providing financial services and focusing on acquisitions without regard to any specific industry.

Through its wholly owned subsidiary, LD Financial, Inc., the company has started providing consulting services to corporate clients through its Business Services Division. This Division of LD Financial will initially target a tri-state area consisting of Ohio, Indiana and Michigan and has started generating revenue. Plans are to establish additional regional offices in the first half of 2009.

LD Financials' Business Services Division's initial marketing efforts will focus on businesses that are in need of additional sales in this period of economic stress. Many of these programs are designed with a small monthly retainer and results-based compensation that is based on the incremental increase in sales achieved for the client. Additional consulting services include: business partnering or company sale, corporate financing and executive search, as well as general consulting services in terms of strategic corporate planning.

Another wholly owned unit, has been launched with experienced management personnel and will source acquire and manage companies that operate in an underserved segment of the small business market. This segment is companies with sales between $2-20 million. It is LD Holdings goal to acquire 40-50 of these companies (with an average $10 million in sales) over the next 5-7 years. These companies should be rampable and scaleable to drive organic growth after acquisition.

As outlined more specifically on its website at www.ldholdings.com, the acquisition and operational strategy that is explained there is currently being implemented under the five-step process outlined. The affiliated site of www.nanocapnation.com has been launched and is currently functioning to attract individual and small institutional investors.

In preparation for the future, LD Holdings increased the number of authorized common shares from 100 million to 900 million shares. Currently there are 14,738,128 shares of common stock outstanding and the Company believes that between 2 million and 3 million shares represent the effective float at the present time. The Company plans to prudently use its common stock for both financings, acquisitions and general working capital.
