GZFX WEBCAST HIGHLIGHTS FROM NOV...

Q: When do you expect to show an uptake in subscription revs?
A: This will be detailed in the annual report early Jan …. But we are up 25% in membership since Nov. 1st.

Also:
“Our company is very well capitalized… no longer a start up business… in absolute growth and acquisition mode… and we are well positioned to take advantage of that.”

“Acquisition targets: We are actively looking for companies wanting to grow, but which need money for that stage. We can do it for them. We also look for companies which are strategic fits, value fits, and have a decent demographic customer base.

“We are aggressively looking for acquisitions now, and over the next twelve months you will see us more active in this department.”

“We are looking for additional people to help us grow, to take us to the next level.”

Milestones to watch for in 2006:

No.1 - Acquisitions

No.2 - Revised website in 1st quarter, after the holidays.

No.3 - Scientific assessment and deployment of marketing and advertising, sales channels.

No.4 – Physical expansion and DC’s- part of the whole thinking and plan

No.5 Staying on top of the evolution of the online rental business, including electronic delivery methods. We are aggressively looking at this, keeping in mind the acceptance and use of such technology

No.6 - European expansion

No. 7 – Being ready for new technologies and platforms, ahead of time.

Closing Remarks:

“GZFX is no longer a start up business.” Infrastructure, both Delivery and I/T, are in place and growing, CC and new marketing partner relationships are now fully rolled out or being worked on. Everything is in place to take off. Growth rates are great. Churn rate is reflected in customer retainment. Now we will focus on strategic growth, measured.

“We are in SMART growth mode.”
