D. THE AUTO PLUS / DEALER DIRECT PROGRAM
The Auto Plus / Dealer Direct Program is a second chance credit
financing program, With Morton Downey Jr. as our national spokesperson.
Genesis is organizing a national television and radio campaign that
will generate 60,000 qualified auto buyer leads per month, distributed
via the Web.
These leads will match the desires of the buyer with the inventory of
Dealers. A buyer will place an inquiry through our system. The buyer,
by making this one phone call, has now made multi-dealers aware of his
or her needs, thus offering the buyer a selection and price favorable
to his or her needs. Multi-dealers review the buyer's specific
requests, and match them with their inventory. Upon purchase, buyer
will receive an unsecured Mastercard with a 500 dollar credit limit.
The program provides numerous benefits to the participating dealers.
The Dealers are able to receive thousands of qualified leads that match
their inventory, reducing the cost of buying leads in bulk. The Dealer
gets the use of the "Buy-a-Car, Get-a-Mastercard" endorsement, in
conjunction with major finance companies that have the funds available
for impaired credit buyers. Dealers also receive national television
and radio advertising, up to 600 commercials per month through the use
of co-op advertising proceeds. There is also ability for other national
sponsors to benefit such as oil and tire companies.
E. TELECOMMUNICATIONS MARKETING.
Genesis provides wholesale long distance service to different countries
such as China and India, and is in the process of developing its own
fiber network to the country of Mexico. These and other contracts will
enable Genesis to proceed with its current plan of operation.
F. JAMES DEAN PROJECT
Genesis is in the process of producing a feature length documentary on
the life of James Dean. The project is designed to be distributed on
home video, as a commercially sponsored TV program, as a stand-alone
special for Pay-TV, or for release on 35mm as an exclusive engagement
in highly selected theaters around the world. The running time for the
project is estimated to be 93 minutes, so that it will have the
flexibility of adapting to any film or video format. The working title
as of this writing is: "The Diary of James Dean." The production will
especially appeal to the estimated 165 million Dean fans worldwide
(over 20 million domestically), spanning more than four decades and
three generations.
The production style of the project will combine elements of a
documentary and a drama, weaving a story with photographs, film
footage, exclusive interviews and a powerful dramatic portrayal of
James Dean. Much of the production takes place on location in James
Dean's hometown of Fairmount Indiana, on the family farm, and other
locations where he worked, lived and developed his talent. An original
soundtrack used as a backdrop will be embellished by selected well
known songs which help tell the story of the world's greatest screen
legend. Amazing and realistic dramatic portrayals will bring to life
the "little-known" facts of the real character and personality of James
Dean.
