Who is PPMPro?
We are a Florida corporation with international clientele
specializing in the preparation of PPMs. Our first offering
document was completed October 10th, 1979 and we have
maintained our position as the premiere PPM provider ever since.
What is a Private Placement Memorandum (Reg D Offering)?
A private placement memorandum (PPM) is the document that discloses everything the investor needs to know to
make an informed investment decision. This includes: the offering structure, the share structure of the company,
SEC disclosures about the shares being purchased, company information, information on company operations,
risks involved with the investment, management information, use of proceeds, information on certain transactions
that could affect the investor, and investor suitability data. The PPM also includes the subscription agreement
which is the actual "sales contract" for the shares of stock. This is the document that the investor will sign and
send in with their investment funds.
Why do I need a PPM?
A PPM is crucial for the acquisition of capital. It shows you are a credible organization following the rules and
regulations required to make an equity investment in your firm. The PPM discloses key points to the potential
investor in order for them to make an informed investment decision. Every firm which is attempting to raise an
equity investment is required to have a PPM to assist the investor in their due diligence process.
Why can't I write my own PPM?
You can, however very few entrepreneurs do. The SEC estimates that it takes an experienced professional 148
hours (SEC form SB-2) to cover all of the points required in an offering prospectus and most business owners
prefer to expend their time and energy in the formation and operation of their own business enterprise rather than
to learn an entirely new skill set. The SEC also estimates it takes 16 hours to complete and submit Form D. That
is almost an entire month of your valuable time which could be spent on building your business.
What do most securities attorney's charge to prepare a PPM?
They typically start at approximately $10,000-$15,000 with changes and consultations at $325/hr.
Are your PPMs developed for my specific purpose?
Yes. As no two businesses are alike, each PPM is designed specifically for your application. While we are
required to follow a standard SEC format your PPM will be one-of-a-kind developed just for your firm.
Can I buy-back the stock at a predetermined return on the investment?
Yes. This option is available in the PPM if you select same.
Can I sell my securities myself?
Yes. The officers and directors of the company can sell the securities however cannot receive a commission.
Only a licensed securities dealer/broker can receive a commission on security sales.
Do I have to file anything with the SEC?
Yes. We can complete your SEC Form D for your signature and submittal to the SEC. Form D is an "information
only" filing - not a filing that is subject to approvals or reviews. There are no SEC filing fees for this registration.
This is included with your order.
If I use a dealer/broker what do they charge?
Most licensed dealer/brokers charge a 10-12% commission on all the securities they place. For a listing of
dealer/brokers go to www.sec.gov.
Can I see an example of a PPM?
Our work product is confidential and proprietary to our clients and is copyright protected.
Do you provide references or testimonials?
As we receive several hundred hits, references would be extremely time consuming and inconvenient for our client
base. Please see our Success Stories section and we recommend you check with the Better Business Bureau as
we have had absolutely zero negative feedback.
How do you accomplish your stock valuation?
We take your return on investment figures from your pro-forma statements and conduct a nine point stock
valuation to determine or verify your future net stock potential worth.
How much of my company do I have to give up?
It depends on numerous factors such as:
Amount of funding you are seeking
The stage of your company
Your projected ROI
Your management team
The amount of actual and sweat equity you have contributed
Typically you would be giving up 10-40% based upon the above criteria. We can assist you in formulating this
figure.

The PPM is delivered via email to the e-mail address you specify when you place an order as a Microsoft Word
attachment.

Do I need a Business Plan?
No. Not to complete the PPM but it is typically a requirement of the potential investor and a business plan is a key
to your overall business success.
What are your payment procedures?
MC/VISA/Company Checks. We cannot defer payments until funding is accomplished as this only applies to SEC
registered broker/dealers.

No, no firm can make that type of guarantee. PPMPro provides you with your required offering material and
makes absolutely no guarantee of successful funding.
Do I need for my attorney to review the PPM?
We always recommend that a client have their own corporate attorney review all documents which affect the
operation of their business.
