About Impressions On The Go

Impressions on the Go� is on the go. We are expanding our operations and offering the opportunity to qualified candidates to become one of our Impressions on the Go� franchise owners. With established exclusive systems in place � from business, software, printing, design, production and installation to customer service, hiring, training, marketing and sales � we've got you covered. To enable franchisees to grow their business while maximizing their return on investment, we have two vehicle wrap franchise options or phases. 1. All new franchisees begin with the Mobile Franchise Option. This allows the franchisee to initially focus on building a client base without having to immediately invest in a production site with equipment and employees. In this way, franchisees can reach: profitability more quickly, maximize their return on investment and learn all of the non-production aspects of the business first including marketing, design, installation, and customer service. Phase 1: The Mobile Franchise Option [Investment Range: $10,449 to $38,900] 2. Once new franchisees successfully build a client base, they may choose to apply for the second vehicle wrap franchise option or phase - the Site Franchise Option. This option will allow franchisees to bring their vehicle wrap production in-house to maximize their margins. (Existing vehicle wrap businesses that wish to convert to an Impressions On The Go� franchise may apply directly for this option.) Phase 2: (optional) The Site Franchise Option [Investment Range:$139,650 to $195,151]

About SportsXpress

SportsXpress is a grassroots, multi-media publishing platform dedicated exclusively to the community sports lifestyle! We’re all about the athletes, their teams, coaches, families, volunteers and fans. We publish real life stories and include all ages and skill levels.

Our business plan was derived from the evident lack of coverage of local organized sports. Through discussions with numerous groups and associations we also discovered those involved in local sports view it as more of a "lifestyle" - an important part of their identity. Later, we discovered the local sports scene is one of the largest lifestyle segments in any community and across the country.

In the spring of 2008 we launched a test model and have been developing the playbook ever since.

We are excited to invite you to be a part of this distinct lifestyle - one that we call a “hidden economy”, and look forward to working with you on developing your winning game plan.
