 Investment Opportunity 
Why should investors want to be a part of Car Wash Campus, LLC. and why is now the time to invest? Investors want a vehicle that delivers a consistent, above-average rate of return on capital invested. Car Wash Campus’ business model, based on risk management and controlled revenue growth, is designed to generate such returns. Our business model is built on returning high return on capital invested (ROCI) and high earnings yield.  A company that can consistently generate above average ROCI is not only a company with a durable competitive edge but, itself, becomes a vehicle in which to re-invest realized profits at a high ROCI.  High earnings are commensurate with high return on capital. However, superior earnings are dependent on an undervalued investment dollar value, which is investor capital.

 Market Opportunity
 The Problems 
The reason Car Was Campus was started was to address the central problems people have with auto cosmetic maintenance – time, convenience, and consistent outstanding service. *Time: We all have busy lives and our time is being allocated differently in this extraordinary medical, educational and employment environment. Time is at a premium and it has becoming increasing harder to schedule all our needs in a given day. The Car Wash Campus saves the client time with an easy-to-use app. 
*Convenience:  Convenience and saving time are inseparable. People demand convenience from the companies they patronize. Car Wash Campus is as close as their phone and its ease-of use platform puts the convenience of vendor selection, products, location, and an expansive range of budget and luxury options at their fingertips. 
*Outstanding Service: People deserve outstanding service. Not just excellent service from the company performing the actual detailing, but also from the app provider supplying the local, regional, or national auto detailers. The constant gathering and analysis of market data, coupled with much sought-after vendor and client feedback are the cornerstones of Car Wash Campus’ commitment to building an excellent vendor/client experience. Providing internal and external outstanding service is the foundation to maintaining long-term trust relationships with our clients and service providers. 
The Solution 
The Trend Car Wash Campus is positioned to take advantage of emerging major car wash industry trends. We are an auto car wash and detailing application (APP)that centralizes local, regional, and national mobile car wash and detailing companies into one digital marketplace. The trends of the industry are the current and future revenue drivers of our app. 
 Technology:
*The car wash and detailing industry has discovered the increasing convenience of mobile apps, online booking efficiency and digit payment platforms. Demand has increased for eliminating the wait-time upon arrival at a wash facility or the arrival of a mobile auto detailer. 
*Car Wash Campus’ service excellence extends to accommodating our cashless society through our virtual wallet offering, accessing a wide array of payment options.
* Automation:
 The industry is increasingly relying on automation to service a growing customer base. Radio Frequency Identification Chips (RFID) ensure client convenience. Upon the arrival on a mobile detailer or at a chosen pre-booked wash facility, a digital chip on the windshield is scanned, and payment is charged to the client’s credit card.
* Customers now have the option of paying during booking or on-site, eliminating the time of a physical transaction. A mobile detailer can receive payment upon arriving at a client’s work or home without customer contact, if necessary. Customer Tracking The RFID, couple with a CRM (customer retention management system), allows mobile auto wash and detailers, and Car Wash Campus, to identify membership holders and frequency of repeat business. Users of the Car Wash Campus app enjoy the benefits of a streamline client journey (no wait-times, budget and payment options and facility and site selection). Car Wash Campus’ accumulated market data assists in providing customized client services. 

Industry Growth:
The global car wash industry has an expected compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.2%. The industry boasted a market-size in 2019 of $31.5 billion with a projected grow to $41 billion by the year 2025 – a 30.2% growth rate! This is not the only statistic Car Wash Campus and it’s 2 JBS Industries Research.

Investors are perfectly positioned to benefit from; people are owning their vehicles longer and are opting for professional wash and detailing services instead of washing and detailing themselves at home. The IHS Market research in 2002 found car owners were keeping their current vehicles an average of 9.6 years, however, by 2020 that number increased to 11.9 years. Older cars require additional external maintenance and Car Wash Campus is posed to provide on-going auto care at the click of their finger within the app.
Research performed by the International Car Wash Association identified and tracked the decline in home car washings and the preference for professional washing and detailing services. The research showed a strong 54.2% preference in 1994 for home car washings, with a shrinkage to 28.4% by 2014. The demand from professional services, over the same period, grew from 41.6% to 71.6% and in 2019 the professional service preference increased to 77%. 
 Our app meets the challenges customers face and provides the conveniences they demand. Reducing customer friction through automation and technology, delivering consistent customer service with site and product flexibility, budget and payment options, the firm’s positioning will increase investor value.

Revenue Model:
Car Wash Campus’ will generate revenue through an affiliate partner (sponsorship) model on a two-sided platform. The app and services are free to the end user and auto wash detailers pay a monthly subscription fee as a member of the service provider network. 
We address the following questions: 
*Why is this revenue model the right fit for our current stage? As a start-up company it’s smart business to go with the proven trend of a market. There are 2.65 million apps for Android, of which, 96.7% are free to the end user. iOS boosts 1.85 million app users and 92.9% are free apps.  As a company on its way to building a substantial customer base and based on market data, having end-users enjoy our app for free is a prudent decision. It is the right fit for other current stage. Generating revenue from auto detailer monthly subscriptions in exchange for access to a large user-base and an opportunity to increase in revenue, is also a wise decision. This model of driving traffic to affiliate partner’s websites (car wash and detailers) is a proven method of revenue growth.
*How does your pricing compare to competitors? Although our services may cost slightly more than our competitor(s), our impeccable customer service pledge will out shine any of our competitor(s).
*Are there additional revenue sources? In-app advertising is an addition revenue generator for Cash Wash Campus. In 2018, the in-app advertising market was $66.78 billion and is expected to mushroom to $472.64 billion by 2027. That equates to a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 24.4%!
 Car Wash Campus will leverage a large user-base and customer-preference market data to generate additional advertiser revenue. The international Institute of Analytics research shows Internet users spend 80% of the time (mobile minutes) on apps and by 2025 will generate over 180 trillion gigabytes 
Business of Apps. Website: https://www.businessofapps.com/data/app-statistics/ 9 Absolute Market Insights. Website: https://www.absolutemarketsinsights.com/reports/In-App-Advertising Market-2019-2027-266 12 of data.
Car Wash Campus is positioned to capitalize on this vast amount of data. Our scalable in-app monetization will drive additional revenue. The feature collects pertinent customer data such as, emails, selected detailer, service preferences, location preference, payment method, and makes this data available to affiliate car wash detailers for a monthly fee. 
Data monetization runs separately from in-app advertising and in the background so it does not interfere with the end-users experience. Upon user permission, data monetization will capture 100% of the data.
 If Car Wash Campus haven’t started generating revenue, when and how will the company “flip the switch”?  We are in Level I funding stage and will launch in first quarter 2022. This is strategic timing based on research indicating winter is the highest seasonal demand for car wash and detailing (32%), followed by Spring (25%), Summer (25%) and Fall (18%)12, 13 Our marketing plan, coupled with converting the strong early interest of auto detailers, will “flip the switch” on a successful launch.

Industry Analysis 
*The global car wash and detailing industry is a growth sector as illustrated by the following statistics:  $31.5 billion market-size in 2019  Projected growth by 2025 of $41billion  Annual 2019 to 2025 growth rate of 30.2%  Compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.2% . In the United States, the car wash and detailing sector is 15th among the service industry, ranked by market size. Industry trends we feel will continue are mobile detailing via app which has gathered considerable traction in the last three years and changes in scheduling and payment options. RFID (Radio Frequency Identification Chips) scanners, advanced AI and GPS (Global Positioning Systems) all continue to be the norm and increase customer convenience and reduce friction. The increased demand for eco-friendly products is a welcome trend. Research conducted by Trade and Industry Development documented 35% of consumers are willing to pay more for eco-friendly products and services. 
*Car wash clubs and facility memberships are driving reoccurring revenues for facility operators and app developers. Additional routine maintenance functions, such as oil changes, are becoming added features of premium service packages.
* As technology advances and increased customer demand move the industry forward, competition will continue to increase … however, Car Wash Campus is going to be the competition in an overlooked corner of the industry!

The Competition:
 There are 16,000 car wash and auto detailers in the United States.17 This figure includes full and multi-location facilities and self-service establishments, as well. There is an on-demand app for almost every company. Car Wash Campus has one company that is a close competitor and only one firm considered a direct competitor. Close Competitor Company: All American Mobile Detailing Where are they based? All American Mobile Detailing is owned by Poseidon's Boat Detailing, LLC and is located in Lake Mary, Florida. The company was established in 2016.18 The firm is a close competitor because of their national service coverage area. It is not an affiliate model like Car Wash Campus, but a single firm with multiple locations nationwide. What stage of growth are they in? Being a five-year old company, they are exiting the survival stage of a start-up firm. How much revenue do they generate? EXTRAPOLATE How many customers do they have? EXTRAPLOATE What are their strengths? All American Mobile Detailing services a wide variety from cars, trucks, boats, motorcycles to RVs and airplanes. Multiple location is also a strength. How do you plan to neutralize them? Car Wash Campus will partner with top auto wash and detailers across the country including Montana, Wyoming, Arizona, New Mexico, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Minnesota, 
* Dunn & Bradstreet. Website: https://www.firstresearch.com/Industry-Research/Car-Washes.html 
* Better Business Bureau. Website: https://www.bbb.org/us/fl/lake-mary/profile/auto-detailing/all-americanmobile-detailing-0733-90642125 
* Wisconsin, Indiana, Kentucky, West Virginia, New York, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine, where All American Mobile Detailing does not have a footprint. 
What are their weaknesses? Pricing for larger vehicles, boats and planes are in the high range of the market. They are owner operators of brick-and-mortar facilities which means higher operating expenses (maintenance, security, insurance, property taxes) would be a weakness. Car Wash Campus will not incur the cost of physical locations, which are owned and operated by affiliate wash and detailers. 
How is that an advantage Car Wash Campus? The advantage is increased revenue due to lower operating expenses equating to increased net profit margin, net income, and free cash flow to re-numerate our investors. 
What can you learn from your competitors to make your company stronger? The takeaways for All American Mobile Detailing are multiple locations is a revenue driver, however, the model can be done without the reoccurring high cost of real estate ownership. Offering a large array of services (engine and tire cleaning, underbody wash, etc.) for all vehicles, boats and planes will also increase revenue, as well. 
Direct Competitor Company: Cardetailing.com Where are they based? Cardetailing.com is owned by Automo, LLC and is located in Temecula, California. The company was established in 2014. 19 The firm is a direct competitor their business model is a two-sided platform affiliate model. This model allows for nation-wide coverage. 
What stage of growth are they in? The company is seven-years old and is in business growth stage; consumers are aware of their service and customer base and revenues are growing. How much revenue do they generate? EXTRAPOLATE 
Better Business Bureau. Website: https://www.bbb.org/us/ca/temecula/profile/car-wash/cardetailingcom-1066- 89082087 
How many customers do they have? EXTRAPLOATE What are their strengths? Cardetailing.com services all types of vehicles including scooters and golf carts. They do not wash and detail airplanes. Nation-wide affiliate coverage and 24-hour emergency service (in some areas) and same-day, next-day service are strengths. 
How do you plan to neutralize them? Car Wash Campus neutralizes cardetailings.com’s with matching national coverage, 24-hour emergency service and same-day-next service, as well. Our affiliate partners service the same variety of vehicles, as well as planes. 
What are their weaknesses? The firm’s glaring weakness is a bad Better Business Bureau Rating as a result of very poor customer service.
How is that an advantage Car Wash Campus? The advantage to Car Wash Campus is there is a large number of alienated, disgruntled customers available to experience the products they desire and the excellent customer service they demand and deserve. 
What can you learn from your competitors to make your company stronger? Customer service is paramount. It is the underlying foundation of continued increasing revenue and the gateway to long-term consistent profitability. Car Wash Campus will request all clients to rate their service provider upon completion of their wash and/or detailing. A service provider must receive a consistent score of 4 out of 5 to maintain an active status in the affiliate network. This is not a new industry policy and policy is only effective is it is backed up with enforcement. Rigorous enforcement builds company credibility through customer satisfaction.

Differentiating Factors:
Differentiating factors per competitor are as follows: Close Competitor Lower operating expenses is the differentiating factor from the All-American Mobile Detailing. How will these advantages translate into a long-term advantage for Car Wash Campus? Higher free cash flow for investor payouts, increased net income and net profit margins are the long-term advantages for Car Wash Campus. Lower operating costs mean less infusion of working capital over time. High earning yield and ROCI (return on capital invested) are probable as revenues increase on fewer working capital dollars. Maintaining low operating expenses, lower periodic infusion of working capital and revenue growth are the staples for long-term profitability. Direct Competitor Car Wash Campus and its affiliate service partners total commitment to outstanding customer service is a primary differentiating factor from cardetailing.com (Automo, LLC.). Enforcement of the provider survey minimum score requirement is a factor, as well. How will these advantages translate into a long-term advantage for Car Wash Campus? Establishing company credibility and customer trust through the execution of these mandates will, not only, separate our firm from its competition but will increase end-user engagement, new affiliate partner involvement, retention of current affiliate partners, and increase revenue in the process. Federal and state taxes are another contributing factor to Car Wash Campus’ lower operating expense advantage.

 Marketing Strategy:
 The Car Wash Campus marketing strategy is a three-cornerstone approach – 
*The Pre-Launch Stage: The Pre-Launch Stage is prior to the service being launched. This is when Car Wash Campus builds app visibility and brand awareness. The Car Wash Campus brand will resonate with end-users through its purpose and value, not solely on the app’s features. Below is our plan on how our users will engage and connect with our app: 28 Mvorganizing.org. Website: https://www.mvorganizing.org/what-is-generation-z-age-range/ 29 Mediakix Research.

* The Acquisition Stage: The Acquisition Stage A successful mobile app acquisition stage utilizes different strategies, emphasizes creativity, and is continually being refined. Our goal is to get as many end-user downloads as possible within the first week of the launch. The more rapidly our downloads, the higher our ranking in the App Store search results. We will track the origin of user downloads to concentrate our efforts on the most profitable channels and additional acquisition strategies will be employed: 
1) Paid Strategy Paid advertising will begin after app launch on social platforms such as LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. LinkedIn is especially effective at letting businesses target our audience based on their interests, location and business and education affiliations. Our ads will be brief, concise and tailor-made for the short browsing attention span. We will take advantage of Google Search as an excellent deliver system to convey our product’s purpose and its solution capabilities. 
2) App Store Optimization (ASO) App Store Optimization involves optimizing our App Store page to rank higher in search results and convert at a higher rate. Over 65% of apps are discovered from a 24 search in the App Store directly. Once the Car Wash Campus app is ranked highly in search for a certain keyword, it will continue to rank for months thereafter. The higher our app ranks, the more visible it is to potential users. Ultimately, the increased visibility should lead to more downloads, which will draw the attention of editors. Good app store optimization is dependent on an array of factors which include title and choice of keywords. Keywords should be strategically placed throughout our listing so it shows up when users search for those words. We will always include features and benefits the user will receive from using the app. Lastly, there are people who would love to use our app but will never find it because it’s not in their language. We will accommodate this by localizing our app. 
3) Apple Store Presentation to Apple’s Editorial Team Getting featured in the App Store is another tool for Cash Wash Campus to utilize within our marketing strategy. Being featured offers a greater potential for apps to increase visibility and downloads which will result in lower acquisition costs, more engaged users, and increased revenue. Every day, a free or paid app is reviewed by professional App Store curators. Apple receives thousands of presentations to feature mobile apps. This tactic can be useful if done persuasively. We will craft a compelling presentation that outlines what our app does and how it is unique. The Retention Strategy Most companies put considerable thought into acquisition marketing, but once they’ve acquired users, if no one is using the app, the product is not yielding revenue. 
Persona Creation Our objective during the Pre-Launch stage is to confirm who our target end-user is, their needs, what they value and their preferences, along with the central pain point our service will address. In-depth user personas develops the end-user journey and assists us in customizing every app feature to the user’s preferences and needs. Our branding, in-app content, features, functionality, monetization strategy and platform choice will resonate with our target user. The persona creation is designed to answer the following questions:
 • What is the central pain point the users collectively experience? 
• What mobile operating system does this target user prefer – iOS, Android? 
• What type of content does our target audience engage in online? 
• What tone, voice and content style resonates well with the end-user?
 • Are there any visual branding patterns prevalent in the target user’s online activities?
 • Do these users follow any reputable influencers in a mobile app’s vertical on social media? 
• What platforms are best for leveraging paid advertisement? 
• Are the targeted users know to pay for apps or make in-app purchases? 
 Answering the above questions through persona creation will assist in our design, marketing and business decisions and will drive the targeted audience to our service. Without thorough research, it is impossible to deliver a service that satisfies a targeted audience’s needs. Perform Competitive Analysis Car Wash Campus has developed a matrix of our competition. The matrix categorizes competitor current prices and packages, service offerings, monetization model, app store ranking, user experiences (UX), services pro and cons and product and company reviews. This pertinent data shapes our entire app marketing approach. 5) Create a Website The number one location for app installs is the mobile website. We are in the process of developing our pre-launch landing page geared to building interest (hype) about our app. The pre-launch website is a very good opportunity to do search engine optimization (SEO) by starting to develop domain authority. Our early-stage landing page will allow us to collect potential user email addresses to be used to inform our audience when our app launches, any new updates, events, features and promotions. All five-star reviews will be included in the pre-launch page content. 6) Review Outreach Strategy Car Wash Campus will optimize our market research 
 Market Research 
Understanding Our Customers) by reaching out to our end-user’s influencers, bloggers, and publications to establish backlinks and supply honest reviews. We will seek out industry-relevant contacts who would be interested in publishing their review of our app. Our brief, concise influencer presentation will contain a link to our website with all needed information to pen their review. 
 Social Promotion Social media giants Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest along with other platforms will expand our web footprint and allow us to communicate directly with our target audience. We know our market’s age groups, have identified social platforms most popular with these demographics and will focus primarily on them. Entertaining and engaging app promotional content will be posted to build the Car Wash Campus community.  Content Marketing Strategy Car Wash Campus will begin writing a blog months prior to the official launch. The strategy is to have a presence, an authority, in our target market with engaged followers. The launch posts will tout the app’s features and showcase videos and screenshots. The strategic benefits gained are:  Build trust with our niche market. Blog content can be used for email marketing campaigns and to re-connect with contacts and contribute to social media.  Create a brand around our app and establish Car Wash Campus as the niche expert. Drive traffic, brand awareness and conversions with content. 
 convert new customers into lifelong users.:  app. This means we cannot falsely advertise or overpromise. Car Wash Campus needs to ensure our messaging remains consistent or it will inevitably result in frustrated users and high uninstall rates. When it comes to setting a broad app marketing strategy, it is essential to diversify our marketing efforts. Some users will connect with video, others with images or text. We will create diversified content and make sure app reviewers have easy access at all times. Our strategy must be dynamic with iterations and continual optimization as the key to finding the perfect balance of different approaches. One of the most important things to do when considering how to market an app is to define KPIs (key performance indicators). Tracking the right metrics at each stage of the user journey will assist us to identify possible bottlenecks that keep users from moving from the first to the final stage. 

* Retention Stage:
1) Two-Way Communication The more aligned our app experience is with an end-user’s needs and preferences, the more likely a user is to continue using the product. Brands using in-app messages to communicate with their target market will see user retention within  Apple – App Search Ads. Website: https://searchads.apple.com/  days of receiving a message range from 61 percent to 74 percent.34 In-app messages are notifications that don’t require immediate action but are nonetheless, important notifications to receive. These can include warnings about app issues, payment failures, or version upgrades. Keep in mind, that not every message sent will be relevant to every user. Segmenting our audience gives us the ability to ensure the information they receive will be of value. 2) Push Notifications Push notifications have been shown to increase customer retention, with statistics showing anywhere from a 56% to a 180% improvement.35 Users who have opted into receiving push notifications exhibit 88% higher app engagement than those who have not. 
Giving users an incentive to use the app can also go a long way. Mobile-specific rewards, specialized content access, gift certificates, special promotions, and other offers will drive conversions and encourage engagement. Continued Success Strategy 
1) Ask for User Feedback If people are using our app constantly, it is a sign that we have made a connection with the service. Give them the opportunity to express their opinions with a pop-up invitation to leave a review but we understand user experience should not be sacrificed by this tactic. We will integrate how we ask for a review and make sure it flows well with the user experience, as not to induce friction. The more strategically the pop-up is placed, the better the chances for a positive review. 
2) Bust Campaign A “burst campaign” is one of the most popular techniques used by mobile app marketers who want to climb the App Store ranks. The idea of a burst campaign is to  Upland Locaystics.

Website: https://martech.org/mobile-app-push-notifications-drive-90-dayretention-rates-by-as-much-as-180/ 26 provide a “burst” of exposure for our app in which we aggressively purchase paid media exposure over a short period of time – usually between 24 and 72 hours, depending on budget. The goal is to get as many paid installs as possible and boosting our ranking in the process. All this with the hope of increasing the volume of quality organic installs – this should follow when the app is finally ranked high enough to be discovered. While we should attract more organic downloads from a successful burst campaign, continued paid advertising will maintain steady downloads. Keeping the momentum going is paramount. 3) Referral Bonus Offerings Offering users a bonus or benefit when they promote our app online is a surefire way to get them to spread the word. 
With a staggering 3,900% growth rate
Dropbox is an excellent example of how powerful referrals can be. The company had just 1,00,000 registered users in 2008, which climbed to a staggering 4,000,000 registered users within a mere 15-month period as a result of their referral program. Goal Setting and Key Metric Tracking The only way to know if our marketing strategy is working is to set goals and track the increase in our App Store ratings over a given period of time. There will also be numerous analytical elements that we will need to track throughout the acquisition, engagement, conversion, and retention stages of the user journey, making measurement an ongoing process. Some key metrics include churn rate, daily active users (DAUs), session length, time in-app, session interval, and cost per acquisition. From these metrics, we will determine what is effective and cost-efficient and, just as important, what is not. Our focus, efforts and resources are on high-value tactics.  Sasquatch, Inc.
