2. EXPU has multiple revenue streams. PLUS, their product is self-replenishing, with low overhead and HIGH profit margin!

Bulk Water.

In 1995, Pleasant Springs began providing bulk water to several other water companies. In the past we have serviced such customers as Kroger, Ingles, Bi-LO Supermarkets, Cracker Barrel restaurants, Georgia Tech University, Tiger Food Mart, Winn Dixie and many others. The company has recently made a significant investment in updating and refurnishing its equipment to better serve our partners. We have streamlined our capacity and efficiency to facilitate our customers with billions of gallons of premium high alkaline high altitude spring water. Our goal is to be fully functional in December 2012 and resume or exceed bulk water sales which previously accounted for nearly five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000.00) in revenue.

Bottled Water:

Bottled water consumption and sales have been increasing exponentially since its emergence as a widely-accepted commercial beverage category. In 2011 Americans purchased 9.1 billion gallons of bottled water. Per capita consumption reached a new peak of 29.2 gallons (it was 18.2 gallons per person about a decade ago). The overwhelming majority (96%) of bottled water purchased in the US came from domestic sources.

Pleasant Springs is re-introducing its brand with the newly launched logo and website www.pleasantsprings.com. The company has partnered with Tricorbraun, an industry leader and worldwide provider of glasses and plastic bottle products. Tricorbraun has been contracted to create a mold specifically to characterize a unique look for our glass and PET bottle line. We expect the new bottles to be available by the end of 4th quarter 2012. Combined with our existing customer list and initial sales inquiries we are estimating gross revenue of approximately Two Million dollars ($2,000,000.00).

New Products:

Classic Swing Top Bale Wire Glass Bottles.

Along with our new unique bottle designed by Tricorbraun, Pleasant Springs will also roll out the Glass Bale Wire Swing Top Bottles (aka as Bail Wire Bottles, Fido bottles, Kilner Bottles, and Swing Top Bottles). These bottles provide a homespun look providing a handcrafted, homegrown appeal. This Country-styling screams wholesome goodness, guaranteeing they'll standout in any setting.

6. EXPU is working on the DTC Chill and updating their Financials (New CEO is cleaning up the mess from the last CEO)


Quote:TIGER, Ga., Dec. 4, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Expert Group, Inc. (EXPU) (www.pleasantsprings.com) would like to provide the following update to the investment community and our shareholders. We have received numerous inquiries and requests in regards to the volatility of our stock and specifically whether or not our stock is the subject of a DTCC Global Lockdown. Although we will not comment on the price movement of the stock or its volume we can provide the following.

The company has had a DTCC Chill since March 7, 2012 and is aware of no change in the status. Out of caution we have been in contact with our transfer agent who has verified there has been no change or alert from the DTCC in respect to Expert Group. If we receive notice of any change we will update the public and our shareholders. Since we have changed the business direction of the Corporation one of our goals has been to rectify this chill by providing current information on OTCMarkets.com, identifying a broker-dealer to renew our DTC eligibility by filing a new 15c2-11, and engaging an auditor to provide audited financials for the past two years and becoming fully reporting.

While we updated our last quarter financials and issuer information statement, we are having difficulty getting the September 30th Financial Statements together and are working toward remedying that deficiency. Once that is done we have identified an attorney to provide an Attorney Opinion letter so that Expert Group can be "Pink Current" under the OTCMarkets Tier system. We have also received two quotes from PCOAB auditors and will be interviewing them with the intent of engaging one to begin the auditing process after the end of this fiscal year. We have done the same with a broker-dealer as it relates to renewing our DTC eligibility.
