Why You Should Lease From Us

and the Benefits for Everyone Working With the Entrepreneurs’ Mall®

Lessees

• For the companies who lease, their store space is 100% tax-deductible.
• A new competitive market strategy has arrived, the Entrepreneurs’ Mall®.  Let you competition remain isolated and locked into their mortgage or lease, you can relocate to our Mall.  Your mall location could serve as your regional headquarters.  You may not ever see a market opportunity this big again.  
• Lessees, instead of just being another of several thousand industrial suppliers to your big industrial customers, be part of a dynamic supplier resource pool for them and join other companies doing the same thing at the Entrepreneurs’ Mall®. You will be providing them with a convenient, technically complex, unique facility which offers them dramatic cost savings.  It’s one sales advantage your competition can’t offer to these customers, and it’s a BIG one.
• Everyone who comes into the Entrepreneurs’ Mall® is interested in your state-of-the-art technology
• Lessees, you should sign up to lease from us in other malls because each mall represents a whole new additional exposure to supertechnological projects based on the regions economic make-up, not to mention the surrounding businesses.  And sign up before your competition does to reserve your space.  In fact, the more mall locations a company leases, cumulatively the more new product applications and ideas they are exposed to with entrepreneurs, etc., and the greater product line exposure they have in these local business markets to their regular business accounts.
• The Entrepreneurs Mall is the best way to cost-effectively introduce your company and its technological products to a mass target market in a specific geographic region.
• Technology has a way of almost magically creating new products, ways of doing business (i.e., the Entrepreneurs’ Mall®), new markets, and new segments of old markets that even the most experienced people do not and cannot foresee.
• State-of-the-art technology has a status to it.  Buying anything else is like buying old clothes.
• If instead, the buyer or engineer goes into the mall at their own pace, which optimally fits their busy schedules, picking up literature, asking questions, looking at entire product offerings, studying displays to learn about technology that applies to their field, discussing their needs with suppliers and in one stop, getting price and delivery information, and keeping abreast of all the latest technologies that affect their company, etc, etc,  I think you will see how much more efficient it is for them to do their business in the mall.  Can you imagine your customer coming in to talk to you, but purchasing a patent at the mall, and saving their company 20% on manufacturing costs from it?
• For lessees it’s much the same features which will attract them, except additionally, they will be working with the emerging OEM entrepreneurs in their field.  Plug your company into the OEM pipeline before your competition does.
• By all the stores working closely together, more crowds will come in to see the products, and so lessees will be helping each other.  If you have a closer working relationship with other suppliers, you can spot potential technical problems or opportunities sooner for the customers.
• The mall will be the central meeting place for professional business organizations, consultants, and guest speakers.
• Entrepreneurs’ products have a weak relationship with the aggregate economy, after all, they’re growing from nothing.  This means it’s a growth opportunity for your company if your product is one of the OEM components they use.  Products like this provide you with recession proofing, and what if you like the product so much that you decide to buy the rights to it from the Entrepreneur?
• A local facility where you can keep JIT stock, some light stock for customers, and even do some light industrial work, or even public relations.
• A place for you to put on product demonstrations for customers, because people learn by doing.
• A place to discover new markets and applications for your products.  You're literally leasing a space on the frontline of innovation for your company!  You’re continuously advancing the state-of-the-art in your industry. From trial and error (a cost of developing a good product), a method made famous by Thomas Edison and many other inventors, you’ll learn what new growth areas for your company are good, and which that look good, really aren’t.  You’re located where daily innovations, discoveries, etc., are changing hands. You’re in the right spot, at the right time, daily.
• You design your store.  It’s your company’s personality, designed from scratch to best showcase your products and make you successful.  Now, you can literally surround the customer with your products, services, and proudest achievements!  You can create dazzling window displays too.  Exciting, ever-changing window displays also attract attention from mall regulars.
• Another benefit to our lessees is that innovation with our entrepreneurs and corporate customers, will force individual technical capabilities to improve, directly increasing lessees’ employees’ value to their companies.
• A place to sell year-end discounted, discontinued, or even lightly used products.
• The mall will be a place to sell discounted, discontinued, or even lightly used merchandise or even as a liquidation year-end inventory outlet for lessees because they have much more intensive market exposure. This is one reason to build your store larger to allow storage space for inventory you intend to liquidate.  

• Your store can be located next to other stores related to your products, and this is one reason why you should reserve your spot early. This is called affinity and it increases sales.
• Penetrate new OEM markets before your competition does, and get specified.  When you think of technology, remember, the greatest competitive advantage is to have specified performance criteria (aka getting specified) that only your organization can meet.
• Corporate America and OEMs will prequalify themselves by approaching you.
• Is your target market well educated, upscale buyers? Corporations? Small business owners to be? There is no more efficient way of saturating this market with your products.
• ‘Location is everything’ when your potential customers want you and your product.
• They also get broad and deep, cross-functional target market exposure with industrial purchasing, engineering, maintenance, and management personnel.
• Your companies name and products will receive outstanding recognition and be associated with the top technological leadership.  And in fact, your sales staff will be rigorously trained to answer these questions because of the customer inquiries.  This will push innovation in your products. 
• Your companies name and products will receive outstanding recognition and be associated with the top technological leadership.  And in fact, your sales staff will be rigorously trained to answer these questions because of the customer inquiries.  This will push innovation in your products.
• You will be giving greater customer support because of your added “anytime” exposure to your customers.
• Long-term leases lock in the best lease rates.
• If the mall increases the speed at which corporate accounts can quote, say 10x faster, huge technological projects, they can quote more of these projects, and come back to the mall to quote the next one since there is no other place like the Entrepreneurs’ Mall®.  One of these projects alone can pay your lease for many years to come.  

Anchor Store Lessees

• To entice anchor industrial stores to sign up with us we could give them free display areas in the mall.  
• We may also be able to offer free electronic billboard advertising to them.
• Extra long-term leases won’t cause you any risk. But they will lock you in at the lowest leasing rates per square-foot possible.
• Possibly a second story at 50% less than the square footage cost of the first.  
• Prominent Name Location on Signage 
• Etc., etc..  

Corporate Accounts

• Historically, many industrial giants have faded from leadership as technologies and markets shifted. For example, the railroad industry, the steel industry, and the textile industry have all had powerful companies crumble in the face of change and competitive innovations, and they won’t be the last.  In fact, technology is so powerful, its innovation has shaken to the roots the political powers of the world. 
• Behind the current financial problems of many companies is a familiar scenario, amounting to a simple formula.  Companies who lose their technological edge, feel it on their bottom line 3-4 years later.  The bottom line is yours. Are you technologically prepared for your competition, or will they get technological leverage over you?    
• We’re a one-stop, state-of-the-art, technology tuneup center for corporations.  The Entrepreneurs’ Mall® is the frontline of innovation in more efficient processes and future products.  Remember, the advantage, measured and profits, often goes to those were first with new technologies, discoveries, patents, and innovations. And that is what the Entrepreneurs’ Mall® is designed to give you.  
• While it’s true you’re shopping at the Entrepreneurs’ Mall®, in truth you’re doing something far more complex.  For the benefit of you company, you’re synthesizing the combined information, knowledge, experience, and materials at the mall in ways that have never previously been combined, to create products, processes, or projects with capabilities and characteristics not previously available. New discoveries, patents, and products are introduced everyday.  The Japanese were right in assuming that with products resulting from innovation, they would be in the process of creating markets, not just responding to them.
• Now imagine your company’s technical skills and abilities multiplied 100 times (the mall’s lessees) technologically reshaping your company, its products and its processes.  
• Don’t come to the mall alone.  Bring as many other corporate personnel as you can.  There is no greater danger to an organization’s success… Than for managers to substitute their decisions for a substantially informed consensus decision making process.  Compare this picture to your competition who are still doing business the old way, talking to one supplier at a time.
• Keep coming back to the Entrepreneurs’ Mall®.  The successful business challengers in technology didn’t just invent things once, they sustained it over time. 
• The shortage of innovative technical personnel corporations have faced for decades, now gets some relief.
• Corporate personnel will be able to get their monthly negotiating down to a day or less because all the suppliers are centrally located near the customer.  It makes sense for the customers, at their convenience, to schedule time to see all the suppliers at once. Imagine the time savings and efficiency the customers’ company will have.  By corporate accounts doing business in the Technology Center and Entrepreneurs Mall, their buyers, engineers, and other staff work more closely together with their suppliers and for less time and money than it now costs them, plus they’re more coordinated. They will also be exposed to the cutting edge of many different technologies, which they can share opinions of, any one of which could be the ‘bottom-line edge’ that your company needs over your competition.
• The Entrepreneurs’ Mall® is based on The Law of Accelerating Returns.  Change is not just a constant, it is accelerating exponentially. Is your company committed to having the technological edge? Is your competition?
• According to Ray Kurzweil (http://www.kurzweilai.net/the-law-of-accelerating-returns), an analysis of the history of technology shows that technological change is exponential, contrary to the common-sense ‘intuitive linear’ view. So we won’t experience 100 years of progress in the twenty-first century — it will be more like thousands (at today’s rate).  There’s even exponential growth in the rate of exponential growth. Within a few decades, machine intelligence will surpass human.  Even if the pace of innovation in your market area is slow, you still risk innovative/technological obsolescence from new ideas. Keeping up with advances is our job, and yours.
• According to Arthur Schlesinger, human beings have been on earth for about 800 lifetimes.  Industrialization appeared 3 lifetimes ago.  There have been more scientific and technological achievements in the last two lifetimes then in the first 798 combined!  Just by looking at this pattern you can expect there will be many more in the next lifetime!  This is further proof that the Law of Accelerating Returns effects manufacturers as well, and this makes perfect sense because every product and process is vulnerable to obsolescence.
• Tailor-made, specialized technical education classes on manufacturing products, and educational displays can be organized for large local employers, one employer at a time if necessary, by lessees.  Assuming 150 lessees, and each given a free opportunity to use our room twice a month, that’s 300 separate manufacturers classes per month or about 10 per day. Topics would be tailored to the local mall industrial market and could be prearranged by our Co-op to have lessees supplement each others’ themes such as pollution, foreign competition, power conservation, costs reduction, facilities maintenance, technical application abilities, new markets, new products, etc.  We could even establish an Entrepreneurs School to train individuals on how to use all the manufacturers products. We would issue them a certificate at the completion of four months worth of courses.  People appreciate useful, free information. By conducting the seminar and demonstrating your product and/or service, you will be demonstrating your expertise.
• A hands-on place experience to examine the synergistic qualities of components and learn about how technology works.
• A place for companies to learn about new patents and discoveries which may effect their business, and purchase them before their competition does. More than just ‘keeping up with the competition’ the purchase of a relevant patent can give you just the advantage you need.  Knowledge is power. And obtaining that at the right time is critical to maintaining an industrial edge over your competition.  An important element of the Entrepreneurs’ Mall® and the continuous innovation process is the ability of organizational complexes to recognize and exploit serendipitous discoveries. 
• The introduction of new technology which is superior to previously used components contributes to product obsolescence, and requires new adaptation. This is one reason why it is important for corporate customers and entrepreneurs to come in the mall and see what the latest technologies are.
• For the technological information process to work, those who need information must receive it in an efficient manner.   Technological development, progress, and scientific understanding do not move forward at a smooth, steady pace across a broad front. Major, unexpected breakthroughs can offer vastly improved performance capabilities and thus allow the establishment of much higher performance standards. Such breakthroughs are seen in the development of medicine, the transistor, the microchip, computers, etc., etc.
• Give your customers a higher-value product for their money, or your competition will.
• Increase the speed at which you quote huge technological projects by cutting vendor consultation/negotiating time significantly, because of the convenience of perhaps all 40 of them in one spot.  Deal with them in a couple of hours, and if dealing with them in the past took 40 hours, now it takes only 2, giving your more time to pursue quoting another massive supertechnological project for your company.  
• As more and more companies are pressured to do increasingly technical projects in less time, traditional, one product at a time procurement methods will have less appeal, and the popularity of corporate customers shopping in the Entrepreneurs’ Mall® for our broad and free component support should grow.
•  As technology becomes more complex, getting the answers to questions often times requires more analysis and becomes more and more time consuming and costly. 
• The ability to contract with rifle-like accuracy for the particular skills and capabilities needed to make a product and/or service, and solve a problem, is critical when problems are to be addressed. Expensive delays and mistakes are avoided this way, and time is saved.

Entrepreneurs / Intrapreneurs (creative people working within and for a company)

• The most innovative products generally come from small development groups. Why? Because it is easier to coordinate activities and keep the project on track. Also, individuals working within small groups are more likely to feel a sense of commitment and a shared sense of purpose.
• The chance to achieve the American Dream is a powerful drawing force for Entrepreneurs.  And every idea you come up can help by creating American jobs, at least in our mall.
• The iron law of competitive success is to be the first to market with it, and our marketing system, should you choose to market through us, is built for speed.
• Typically, research enters the process at multiple points. Moreover, the great majority of American firms, large as well as small, lack the resources to be self-sufficient in technology and science. The complexity and pace of technology have simply outstripped their ability to keep up. 
• Going forward, the Entrepreneurs’ Mall® will use its resources to act as a catalyst for entrepreneurial ideas, be the one place they can find turn-key support, and even market their products through our sales force, but also providing may other benefits which lower risks for Entrepreneurs.  The biggest risks Entrepreneurs face are financial, organizational, and access to the marketplace, and we already have, or are developing, plans for each.  Everyone now has a chance to be the next Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, or just achieve the American Dream.  International diversification also reduces risk, and some products which don’t sell in one culture, sell very well in others.  One thing I would like to do is establish an international footprint.
• Entrepreneurs would do well to work with us because otherwise, 70% of them fail in the first 3 years.
• Entrepreneurs can form Virtual Corporations which have relatively no overhead expenses.  It’s tough for foreign competition to compete against this.
• We can bring the product to market in a fraction of the time and cost, and give you market control, penetration, and very little cost because you, as an entrepreneur, are not investing in the capital equipment.  Corporate bureaucracies, and their decisions and rules may actually inhibit a company’s innovation by, among other things, not allowing them to consider some suppliers, just to reduce the amount of procurement work to do.  This is another reason why it’s beneficial to lease from us.

Facilities  

• The cumulative value to the customer of all we’re offering them is so good, we’re expecting to seeing continuing customer growth for a long time.  For the record, in the retail industry, between 1955 in 1980  the planed shopping center grew to the point where annual sales in the nations shopping centers comprised 42% of total retail store sales in 1980, and by 1990 it was over 50% from zero!  If your company gets a 50% market share in the local area over 35 years, plus all the other benefits, will moving into the mall have been a good choice?
• Won’t increased market exposure increase your sales? It has with retail malls, and now with technology becoming harder for us to keep up with and often times more difficult to understand, it is time now for the Entrepreneurs’ Mall®.  And in here you can learn about manufacturing technology in a one-on-one environment.
• One-stop shopping facilities and variety like this doesn’t exist in the industrial marketplace for regular high-volume buying traffic in a central location. Salesman must go to the plant.  Appointments must be scheduled. Corporate personnel become hosts with salesman who are so readily willing to spend extra time to sell them. Many corporate personnel would like to just be able to walk out after they’ve received the information they want, and they feel obligated to listen further to the salesperson. The mall will allow them to do this. And it will save money with a salesman’s company because the cost of a sales call is conservatively estimated to be $137. 
• If we have 150 lessees, your walk-in traffic, and theirs, is increased by that of 149 other stores.
• The Entrepreneurs’ Mall® is a unique place corporate accounts should regularly visit because of the speed of technological advances, patents, discoveries, new products, etc.
• A unique, prestigious, international destination to showcase to the world your products.
• If you’re looking for this target market: more product interest, more opinion leadership, earn more dollars, have more education and have a higher occupational status, then new product users are the ones you want, and the Entrepreneurs’ Mall® is the place.
• Cooperative planning and sharing of costs such as advertising, and parking, maintenance, security, administrative costs, Common Area Maintenance and the availability of Co-op purchasing.  We could produce a Welcome Wagon of customer discounts for select accounts to get acquainted with us.  We could print up a coupon book from lessees to attract corporate accounts to the mall. Discounts will be offered to those who go to the malls stores.  Lessees could rent billboards on the highway exits near the mall, and around it.
• We will invent our own newsworthy events, including celebrating milestones for entrepreneurs, an Entrepreneurs Hall of Fame, Executive’s Hall of Fame, High School Field Trip Week, Exciting New Products, etc.  Another benefit about these school field trips is that you will familiarize your future customers with your products in a hands-on way if you’d like, and it's a good opportunity to train your store’s employees about your products and services.
• We bring in additional crowds by hosting international speakers, and selling tickets.
• Creation of a distinctive shopping center image and mission shared by all lessees.
• Access to highways, and availability of parking.
• Excellent security system.
• Closed malls offer shopping all year.
• Everyone in the Entrepreneurs’ Mall® is focused on inventing the future.  You’re joining a community focused on creativity.
• One of America’s leading universities found that people exposed to new material one time will remember only about 2% of it two weeks later.  If they are exposed to the same material on six consecutive days, they will remember 62% of it two weeks later. The more times that you are exposed to the same information, the more likely you are to take action on it.
• The more familiarity these customers have with the lessee and mall, the more likely they are to buy from them/us.
• Study after study confirms that people patronize businesses with which they are familiar. Familiarity breeds confidence, and confidence builds sales.
• In advertising, largeness does not produce the consumer confidence that comes with consistency.
• By leasing in the Entrepreneurs’ Mall®, your business will be easier for your customers to find.  
• Free demonstrations work well in high-traffic areas.
• Imagine, a large corporate or government account can come to the mall for lessee training/servicing/negotiation sessions.   All 250 stores can cover the needs of one large account during the same week.  The benefit to the corporate accounts is all their vendor interaction is done in a very short, and efficient period of time.  The benefit to the lessees is that they can tailor their product offering to just the needs of a specific customers. 
• And, for a limited time, if you’re one of the first accounts we sign up (ASAP), you are guaranteed to have the right of first refusal for located in any of our future malls, with a contract similar to, the one you’ll sign up with today. This is an advantage you’ll get over your competition in exchange for proactively making your store reservation today.  Let’s put it this way:  You can dominate your competition by locating all your national stores in the Entrepreneurs’ Mall® because you know the success of retail stores over the past sixty years have had in dominating the retail market.  Yes, I understand, it takes time to get this through corporate, but you’re competing with other companies, and space in the mall is limited.  If you can’t take advantage of this, I understand, but I just wanted to give you a polite opportunity. 

Community Benefits of the Entrepreneurs’ Mall®

• A private-sector based, ENORMOUS YEARLY ECONOMIC INFUSION, pumped into the local community which is essentially FREE, making it the number 1 priority to enhance the community.  (See the math estimates for yearly local revenue benefits and you’ll be completely astounded!)
• The mall is a public facility engineered to make the local economy and tax base grow better than anything else ever has.  The principal benefits accrue to local corporate accounts, and citizens who are interested in earning the American Dream.
• Support for the mall will principally come from private investors.
• It is THE technological training and education center in the area designed to teach people about technology and show how the applications of Math and Science apply to products.  It is student friendly, and as such it enhances their technological education.  
• Citizen-Entrepreneurs will be given a unique opportunity to achieve the American Dream by creating their own product, service, etc., and they’ll be able to get all the technical help they need in one convenient location.  This will spin off into more jobs and money in the local economy.
• Businesses will have a destination to do most of their technical research, procurement, and research on industry patents, etc., in one efficient and economical location.  This is another cost-effective selling point to attract new businesses into the community and keep the ones you have.  
• The Entrepreneurs’ Mall® is a brand new idea, and a unique, worldwide destination.  It will attract many international travelers, and serve to showcase the community.  
• It’s a facility designed to serve a core market of customers all directly or indirectly supporting the community.  Scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs, executives and citizens alike will all enjoy it’s benefits.  
• Rags to riches stories will abound in the local community, and this will bring in even more enthusiasm from citizens.  

How Mega-Projects Benefit by Using the Entrepreneurs’ Mall®

• By their nature, mega-project problems are large and also very complex. They may effect any combination of people, information, materials, tools, energy, capital and time.  Examples of problems encountered may include delays (regulatory, labor), administrative coordination, political considerations, unforeseen environmental issues, and any number of other issues.  
• Historically, these projects have had a difficult time meeting their budget and schedule, and yet by one estimate (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megaproject), “… Globally, mega-projects make up 8 percent of total GDP”.  Until now, there has been no facility capable of efficiently processing the enormous scale of their technological challenges.  While more and more of them are being proposed (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megaproject).
• Mega-projects have a variety of purposes, but what the Entrepreneurs’ Mall® offers them, is a unique and efficiently designed technological buffet, or process, to provide one-stop shopping, training, technical consultation, state-of-the-art technologies, and constant innovation.  We specialize in applying both technological and higher technological products to provide the most efficient solutions for our customers. 
• It also is forward focused in the development of new products by presenting information on the latest research and discoveries, patents for sale, encouraging the development of new entrepreneurial products, and...
• It uniquely provides the opportunity for a cross-pollination of successful technologies from other NAISC (North American Industrial Standards Classification) areas.  We’re probably the most future-focused technological people in business, and we’re always encouraging our entrepreneurs and lessees to push the limits for the creation of new technologies.

With this combination of capabilities, mega-projects have another ally when unforeseen technical issues occur, and we can respond more quickly than their current alternatives with technical consultants and state-of-the-art technologies.

How much is this worth?  Considering the enormous size of these projects, typically considered to be $100,000,000,000 and above, having the ability to quickly solve technical issues can result in enormous savings.  For example, just a five percent savings to a project this large, results in a savings of five billion dollars.  Or, if you're just a billion dollar project, is it worth spending a week at the mall to save just 5% of your project's cost, or $50,000,000?  The answer's simple:  It’s definitely worth the trip to the Entrepreneurs’ Mall® if you’re a mega-project shopper and we have suppliers you need, plus your personnel will get the added benefit of massive product training sessions for free, and all the access you want to our technical consultants!  

An organization’s Mega-project can be a stand-alone project, like the construction of a bridge, or it can be continuous and on-going in nature, like NASA’s projects are.  The Entrepreneurs’ Mall® will have the biggest impact for mega-project customers when getting things done on time is important, training is valued, and/or state-of-the-art technology is required.
