Other companies with similar business models that exemplify our 21st century interactive digital business model, low cost structure and scalability include Priceline.com and Kayak, both online travel companies. Priceline is a mature company initially built with technology from the '90s. It recently posted a gross profit margin of 76 percent and has a $31 billion market value and price of $622 per share. Its younger rival, newly public Kayak Software, recently reported a 94 percent gross profit margin on $77 million in second quarter revenue.
The online real estate information companies are also instructive, with Move achieving 80 percent gross profit margin on its second quarter revenue of $49 million, and Zillow reporting 88 percent gross profit margin on $28 million in second quarter revenue.
Growth Strategy
Our growth strategy is simple:
•Invest in state-of-art but off-the-shelf technologies. This ensures a robust, intuitive and interactive user experience on the desktop, tablets, Roku, game consoles, smart phones and more. It also keeps our costs low, while we integrate these various technologies in ways we deem proprietary.
•Aggregate content worldwide. Our content spans ministries and global film, music, children's content, entertainment, educational and merchandise providers. We plan to dominate the sector, starting with direct outreach to 3,000 U.S.-based ministries to extend their reach from local neighborhoods to millions of viewers worldwide.
•Build brand awareness and traffic. This includes public and media relations, advertising, and social media marketing. We make it easy for the many millions of Christian and family-oriented consumers to become a Truli.Net registered user. Any Facebook or Twitter user can register in seconds with Truli.Net.
•Serve the youth market. We are developing a youth focused initiative named DOXA. With youths' growing purchasing power, and the opportunity for advertisers to create lifetime brand loyalty, DOXA is a subsidiary with a functionally identical platform to Truli.Net that provides enrichment, entertainment and interaction around three impulses that capture the rising generation of Christians between 16 and 35: humor, social good and spirituality.
