Currently Seeking Investment Capital to Take to National Status

Metro Video Pages (MVP) is the first local online video advertising directory. Using our simplified category listing, consumers are able to quickly search for advertisers offering the products or services they desire. Once an advertiser is selected, consumers find a dedicated company profile that includes a company video, text information, promotions, testimonials, and even job opportunities, all on a single, easy-to-navigate page.

We are currently seeking Investment Capital to take Metro Video Pages national. Please watch our video to better understand the product and the opportunity.

Goals

Our goal is to become the national online directory of choice, by offering a better directory concept, more promotions, and a directory that provides only the best business in a given category.

Year 1:   10 Cities - Starting with an average of one city per month, we’re able to work out the potential obstacles and refine the overall process. All cities will be in a top 50 market.

Year 2:   30 Cities- With the process refined, we will ramp up to 20 additional cities the second year. All cities will be in a top 50 market.

Year 3:   30 Cities - Allow revenue from the 30 cities to accumulate to improve company balance sheet to set-up for a public offering.

Year 9:   National Expansion - We will look to penetrate the entire U.S. to compete directly with the Yellow Pages.
 (Potentially creating the next Google phenomenon.)
