TRIED............TESTED..............PROVEN! After 16 years of UK success, and as a result of an ever increasing deluge of enquiries from all corners of the globe, our company, one of the world leaders in its automotive field, are now seeking to appoint carefully selected Master Distributors for all countries. As a mark of the company's far seeing outlook, the unheard of low investment required to secure such an exalted status is from just �38,000. This is an exceptional opportunity that not only veers away from the main stream of labour intensive businesses, but one that also offers the chance of a real wealth making and enjoyable experience. Outlet potential for these amazing state of the art Cub karts is almost limitless, and as the ever changing world puts increasing demands on our time, more and more people are seeking outsourced entertainment. Pacer leisure is an exciting and thrilling business to be involved with because it brings tremendous joy to parents and children alike. It is also an all year round business with potential venues in so many diverse areas that the earning capacity is only limited by the boundaries of your own imagination. There are many aspects that make a Cub Kart business a success story worldwide, but there is one common fact that stands out above all others : Children can't wait to drive Cub Karts, and parents will always put their hand in their pocket for their children. Additional income is also generated by sponsorship, merchandising, operating venues, the sale of Regional licenses, royalties, sale of more and more of Cub Kart packages, rental, and many more. SUMMARY: The biggest factor that ensures the success of running a Cub Kart operation, is that any business that encompasses children-wheels-leisure-and happy parents, will never go out of fashion or just be a passing trend. As a result of this, and the fact that the business multiplies on its own momentum, any appointed Master Distributor can look forward to earning potential that will satisfy even the most demanding of entrepreneurs....This point is highlighted by the fact that one 'Regional' distributor in England has earned �200,000 in one year, with a �100,000 a year income being a regular occurrence....and we are talking 'Regional' here, not 'National'
