    Lone Wolf in need of a pack!

    I have finished my business plan, financial worksheet, executive summary, ect... Now I need investors, partners, Co Founder ect. Interested due let me know. Detail of my company below...

    Play n Watch is a game/dvd rental kiosk company that will rent out both dvd's and games for a fixed cost. We have pricing plans that are different from your typical $1 a day rental. I plan to incorporate pricing strategies that have been proven to work with companies such as netflix but at the convenience of a kiosk machine. The time is now for a game rental company that people can count on, due to Blockbuster going out of business people are stuck with Gamefly and having to wait on games to arrive at their door. People are looking for the next best thing and we are hear to pickup the slack. I plan to incorporate pricing strategies that have been proven to work with companies like Netflix and Gamefly but combining it all into more convienent kiosk machines! I have put together all the detail and have come up with two different approaches for funding. I have about 10 locations here in my hometown willing to host the machines already we would like to start off with 10 machines which will be about $200,000 to $250,000 which includes inventory and all, or we could take a more conservative approach and get about 5 machines($100,000 to $150,000) to test drive and see the revenue this could make starting out and determine when to expand. This also will be a franchise opportunity as well which will help spread the brand more rapidly.

    My true vision for this is to hit college campuses with this and provide this service to college students that want to rent a dvd or play a game and don't have to leave campus. When I was attending Prairie View A&M University we had something called Panther bucks which is like real money(Panther Buck=$1) but it used the financial aid instead of students coming out of pocket and that's what I would like to with this company. I'd like to go around to campus and while students are deciding on their meals plans and housing they will also have an option for "GameLitter Bucks"(or something like that). This will also be a franchise opportunity.

    Right now I have seed capital company that wants to fund the business but I need a partner with good credit to stand for the funding. Even if you don't want to partner, there's something called a "Credit Partner" if you'd like to consider that rather than a partnership let me know. Hope this sparks your interest. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks for reading. God bless...

    And Blockbuster isn't out of business. They got bought by Dish Network and will be moving into streaming like Netflix.

    The DVD market is highly competitive and diluted .
