To sum up RAD’s financial projection expectations, Steve Reinharz, Founder & President of RAD, said: “We aggressively manage all expenditures to focus on the major milestone of positive cash flow, as may be adjusted from bringing on additional engineers and sales staff. Although our growth is steady, we expect a big boost when the first – and subsequent – big orders come in. Given the feedback, encouragement and verbal commitment to orders from our dealers and end users we believe it is just a matter of time until we can report exponential growth in revenue and profits.”
RAD has a sales pipeline of over 35 Fortune 500 companies and numerous other potential clients. RAD expects to continue to attract new clients as it converts its existing sales pipeline into paying customers. Each new Fortune 500 Customer has the potential of making numerous reorders over time.
