The Opportunities and The Steps to Take Advantage of Them

Three Levels of Opportunity:


1. Primary Marketing Rights opportunity affords you with the primary rights to market and advertise the Waterloov name in a specific geographical territory*. It includes a start-up package with enough inventory to recoup nearly half of your first payment listed below. The package is all inclusive and contains everything down to business forms, business cards, sales aids, models, and so on. Sales, marketing and installation training as described below are included in this package.

2. Limited Dealership. Say, for instance, you are a roofer and want the best gutter protector as an add on product to your roofing business, but are not interested in going into the business of gutter protection. Then the Limited Dealership is custom made for you. With a Limited Dealership, you are the only roofer allowed to represent Waterloov in your geographical area. You offer Waterloov in your sales presentations in conjunction with your specific products and services. The limited dealership includes the same training as the Primary Marketing Rights Dealership. However, the limited dealer is not granted license to market or advertise the Waterloov name nor show the design of the louvers in any advertising or marketing media in a geographical territory which has the primary rights already granted to another licensee.

3. Independent Contractor. You purchase direct from Waterloov on a job by job basis. You have no commitments or minimums to maintain. and have access to a limited amount of confidential sales and installation materials.

The Value
Usually, a business opportunity of this caliber would cost tens of thousands of dollars and then require you pay a royalty of 4-to-6% based on your gross income.

The value of the Primary Marketing Rights opportunity business is valued at $9,995. For the next 10 dealerships this package is available for a special low fee of just $6,995.

The limited dealership, valued at $4,000 is available for a limited time for just $3,000.

To take advantage of this ground level offer, call Larry Loefflad at 1-800-841-7246.

*approving your application is dependent on a reference check and availability of distribution rights in your geographical area. If distribution agreements prevent us from selling direct to you, you will be directed to a distributor that can serve you. If reference checks with the Better Business Bureau or any other consumer's right groups reveal unanswered claims, your application will be denied and all monies returned to you.

**First right of refusal letter is for six months with a minimum purchase requirement listed to remain active. You may:
1. follow through at any time to formalize your license. To have your investment in your start-up package1. count towards your total license fee, you must follow through within 90 days of the date of first right of refusal letter with a deposit for:
Primary Rights opportunity of $3,000 payable to Waterloov.
Limited Dealership of $1,500 payable to Waterloov
Upon receipt of your deposit and execution of the formal Primary Marketing Rights Agreement or Limited Dealership by Waterloov, you can begin scheduling your marketing, sales and installation training:
a. two week installation training course broken into two one week intervals over the course of three months.
b. one week of sales and marketing training broken into two and three day segments over the course of three months.
(All training to take place at Waterloov headquarters in Red Bank, NJ unless other arrangements have been made).
A final payment2. for:
Primary Marketing Rights of $3,300 is required 90 days from receipt of your initial deposit:
Limited Dealership of $805 is required 90 days from receipt of your initial deposit:

2. or you can delay the formal licensing procedure described above by renewing the first right of refusal for additional six month periods for $200 each time you renew. You can continue renewing your first right of refusal until we receive another application for your geographical area from another party at which time we will contact you to exercise your first right of refusal if:
1. your account is current.
2. your purchase minimums have been achieved and maintained.
3. there are no unresolved complaints from unhappy homeowners that contact us or the Better Business Bureau.
4. your business practices and ethics of workmanship and customer relations are acceptable.

1. Final payments by those applying for Primary Marketing rights include credit for initial payment of $715 for startup package providing the schedule of payments has been on time and that payments have begun within 6 months of having ordered the start-up package. Financing is available.
2. All monies except for that of inventory, business cards, quote forms, and training provided are refundable prior to execution of final primary marketing dealership agreement or limited dealership agreement.

***Note that Primary Marketing Rights does not prohibit other contractors or limited dealers in your geographical area from purchasing inventory. It does prevent them from advertising or marketing the Waterloov trade name and product design. Exclusive distribution rights are required to fully control the distribution in a geographical area. Exclusive distribution license is very much the same as Primary Marketing Rights license with much higher minimum purchase requirements.
