Capital Story: The TQ Time Prism…
“The above video encapsulates 25 years of experience into a 5 minute “explainer” about WHO we are, WHAT we do, and WHY we are doing it. ThinkTQ, Inc. is on the trajectory of 100 Million active members and a potential multi-Billion exit valuation in 36 months. See Bullet Points: TQ VC Summary We are happy to reveal our full operational plan to qualified investors or merger candidates. Many Thanks! ~ E. R.

The Quick Big Picture…
Biz Case…
TQ is a growth-stage opportunity expecting to sell-up via merger within the next 36 months. We are positioned for both, fast growth and stunning profitability.
Our M&A strength is that we can immediately add $100 Million in net revenue to a company who already has a large member base such as Indeed, LinkedIn, ZipRecruiter, Glassdoor, Monster, Facebook, etc. (We have the historical numbers to prove this assertion.)
Since they have already absorbed the cost of customer creation, this becomes a high-value, no-hassle merger proposition. Essentially, we are looking for the perfect co-marketing partnership leading to a near-term buyout — making any investment in TQ relatively short term with an exceptional ROI.
Our current objective is twofold:
- Raise short-term capital to hit the target of 10 Million new members this year boosting equity valuation…
- And create branding relationships with sponsors who already have our ideal customers: Staples, GEICO, Wells Fargo, Hertz, etc. Companies such as these become sponsors of The Time Prism and receive billions of free impressions, brand reinforcement, and goodwill 24/7/365. We grow our member base exponentially without further dilution. A true WIN-WIN. Details: Sponsor.TimePrism.com.
Vision…
Our vision is to transform a Billion Smartphones into a Transparent Learning Platform designed to give every person who wants it the chance to achieve their most inspiring dreams and goals — personally and professionally… by just getting them to stop, take a breath and THINK.
Think about this.
A smarter planet begins with smarter people.
Billions are being invested in AI to make machines smarter than people. We believe it is time to make people smarter than machines.
To realize this vision, TQ has developed the ultimate FREEMIUM — The Time Prism: The World’s Smartest App. It is now real-world tested and designed to be immediately installed by people interested in self-growth, career development, and greater personal and professional success.
Our hot new App contains over 30,000 of the most engaging, inspiring and motivating ideas for action — from the greatest minds in history — curated, condensed, distilled, codified, then rewritten as 10-second training sequences (ScreenGems™). The Time Prism is the fastest and easiest way to learn, remember, and master the success-critical skills for higher achievement. More importantly, people use it daily and love it as it produces more “Aha” moments a day than any other training!
Mission… Market… Money: The Full Story…
We just updated our full 48-page operational plan that details market forces, summary numbers, and an in-depth explanation of this opportunity.
The Self-Betterment space is vast and growing, already 500% greater than the online dating industry, is highly fragmented, and has few barriers to disruption and brand consolidation.
For an M&A candidate, this means immediately giving their customers an exceptional tool for higher achievement that results in long-tail revenue flow. Because everything we do is now 100% virtual, on-boarding will take a few days. It is a near perfect deal:
• No overhead, leases, employee buyouts, or liabilities of any kind…
• 100+ unique products that people use daily and love…
• Add $100 Million to the bottom line in 18-24 months.
For a qualified investor, this means a known exit plan, with known financial metrics, no liabilities, no employee/staff headaches, and fully developed and deployed content. TQ has an infinite source of categorized content… deliverable in bite-sized, sequenced, Twitter-esque consumable portions for our ADHD world… mobile-enabled, and platform/ hardware agnostic.
The best way to think about TQ is Speed-Learning for the Masses.
I am happy to share hard numbers upon mutually executed NDA’s.

The New IQ
Something of a “Do-It-Yourself”
PowerPoint Overview…
Soul Story…
We created TQ because people want and deserve better.
Without question, self-betterment — the natural desire to reach higher, achieve more, and become all we are meant to be — is the most basic and fundamental human aspiration. (It is also a large segment of the $366 Billion training industry worldwide.)
IBM’s advertising slogan is that they are building a Smarter Planet.
TQ empowers Smarter People.
Our passion is to make the intentional pursuit of excellence the prevailing aspiration around the globe.
Why?
Because we hate to see people work their hearts out and still come up short.
Millions of talented people have no chance of enduring success simply because they lack encouragement, real training, and accelerated learning tools, so they spin their wheels, work harder and harder doing what they think works, when just a small shift in perspective — more insight and awareness — would put them on the fast track to higher achievement.
Our vision is to transform a Billion Smartphones into a Transparent Learning Platform designed to give every person who wants it the chance to achieve their most inspiring goals — personally and professionally… by just getting them to stop and THINK for a moment.
Our focus is on disrupting the self-improvement market — a market 500% larger than online dating.
This is a multi-billion dollar wealth-creating opportunity…
The business is simple, well-defined, time-tested and fully operational. We give away the Time Prism and sell TQ products and services.
Rapid expansion and creating legacy-driven wealth is our objective.
It is a perfect mass-market package for brand, lifestyle, and social advertising of all kinds: TV, search, social, influencers — all with a common theme: Encouragement… excellence… success… meaning… and happiness.
FREEMIUM: Give Away The Razor ~ Sell The Blades…
The Time Prism is designed as the ultimate “Freemium” — the free razor — where TQ is the feature-rich content base — the blades — needed to actually develop success-critical skills in an increasingly competitive world. This presents a natural two-prong strategy:
- The Razor. First, we build a huge member base around casual daily engagement with thought-shaping ideas for action. Our “high concept” is that The Time Prism is your trusted Mentor for the rest of your life. If you look at the composition profile of the LinkedIn database, we believe you will find about 150 million people who, over time, will download our free App. About 20% of them — again, over the long marketing tail — will see us as their trusted source for custom-published products, services, and executive coaching.
- The Blades. Which then naturally causes people who are ready to do more, to purchase the highly-focused TQ products and services specifically designed for their exact needs. Essentially, this combination of Freemium + TQ product sales results in an actual cash-conversion ratio of about 1 in 5 or 20%± or $2.1 Billion in top-line revenue with a net around $1.6 Billion after G&A, marketing, etc.
A Limitless Opportunity For Accelerated Growth…
It should be noted that there are literally thousands of collector-sites that match the full 500 million-plus LinkedIn member base. People on job sites, MSN, Yahoo!, Google, Indeed, and brand sites such as Staples, American Express, GEICO, Office Depot, Voya, etc. all have success-oriented members concentrated in mass. Our marketing job is to get folks who want to achieve more and get ahead faster to download our App and start their journey with TQ.
Growing dedicated fanatics by way of the Time Prism establishes trust, encouragement, and a constant reminder that excellence matters. These fanatics either decide to do more, which puts them in the TQ realm, or they just remain happy with their daily reminders.
However you see it, hand in glove, razor and blade, or just common sense, this is a winning strategy for building legacy-driven wealth. A business with a hundred million customers that has a built-in framework for monetization has many options. A business that is scalable and naturally profitable has more. We are both the former and the latter!
An Aside…
As you might imagine, after 25 years we have a massive database supporting our numbers with what I (as an economist and CEO) would call statistical precision. Couple that with a proven business model, our merger story and valuation expectations make sense. Of course, I do not expect you to take my word for it. Qualified investors will be given real-time access to our dynamic financials.
Where LinkedIn purchased Lynda for $1.5 Billion based on $100 million in top-line revenue, (15 TIMES revenue) my belief is that the timing is perfect for a sell-up, sell-out opportunity with aggressive competitors such as Salesforce, Oracle/Peoplesoft, etc.
Since billions of people worldwide have little or no access to coaching, training or mentoring, we fill this gap beautifully, in a systematic, timed approach. The Time Prism combines the innate want for consistent engagement and continuous encouragement with the most fundamental need for accelerated training and skill-building.
Put simply, people freely download The TimePrism and ultimately become paying TQ customers!
The Market…
Our market is large ($13 Billion US / $40 Billion globally) and rapidly growing, as self-betterment is the most basic and universal human aspiration. The personal self-development market is around 5 TIMES larger than online dating at this time. It is a major segment of the $366 Billion training industry worldwide.
We are not creating a new market for TQ products, but rather, taking advantage of a large and growing existing market for self-improvement products ripe for disruption. On a global basis, our market is identical in scope to the Linked In member base… people who want to be better connected and to achieve greater success.
These people are clearly the most logical target for our marketing and are reachable in scale via various channels. Their market is our market. In a perfect world, we would simply “poach” all employment sites to find people in transition, who need to do better and want to get ahead faster.
The good news is that this audience is readily available on social media such as Facebook and reachable through PR, ads, promotions, influencers, etc. Our target interests are initially set at the 100 Million people representing the lowest hanging fruit… people who have both the need for better results and a high desire for success.
Brain-Training, Skill-Building & Developing an Elite Level of Performance…
The vast majority of personal self-help falls between the cracks of pure Entertainment and pursuing a formal Education. Most people call this the “Infotainment” or “Edutainment” market. For the most part, the offerings are high on big-theater and motivation, and little, if any, on systematic, repeatable processes. Training, on the other hand, is designed to take what you know, then develop an elite level of performance.
Some Apps, like Calm are designed to promote meditation and relaxation. Firmly on the Entertainment scale.
Some like Lumosity exist to play brain games and is more entertainment than education or training.
My Fitness Pal promotes exercise and nutrition. Thousands more are purely motivational.
Hundreds of millions of people use these Apps each day. Add to that courseware and tutorials.
The Time Prism is Different…
The Time Prism is brain-training + skill-building + a personal coach all in one super-smart, super-simple App that turns a smartphone into a tool of extraordinary personal growth.
It is, hands down, the ultimate “freemium” needed to exponentially grow a 100 Million member base in the next 36 months.
The Time Prism contains 5,000 years of the best ideas… from the smartest people who ever lived… carefully curated and hand-crafted into thousands of gems of wisdom (ScreenGems™) and Smarter In a Minute videos that inspire, motivate, inform, and reinforce.
It has a single objective: To train people to stop and THINK.
The Time Prism exists to make you instantly more effective and productive by continuously training you to simply …
1) Stop…
2) Take a Breath…
3) THINK…
To inform smarter decisions in the moment…
Every day, on the hour, transparently, and automatically…
Resulting in a heightened level of performance which drives enduring success…
Creating a multi-billion dollar opportunity in the next 36 months.
Our vision is to give a billion people the tools they need to excel.
Free of charge, free of distracting ads, no gimmicks. We monetize this member base by offering specific solutions from our library of over 100 TQ virtual products.
