The Pitch
Isabos is Concierge Post Mastectomy Care enabling the
client to viewing and receive her post mastectomy items in a private
environment were she feels most comfortable: office, home or doctor's
office. As a one of a kind service there are no direct competitors.
Technologically grounded online Mastectomy Fitter Consultation, online
ordering and appointment scheduling capability and follow up provide
for a complete experience.
With over 2.6 Million women nationally living with breast cancer, post
mastectomy services see over $500 million annually in sales from cash,
credit and insurances. State and Federal laws mandate post mastectomy
coverage. There are approximately 100 boutique in Texas and only 5 in
Houston. The national average revenue for an independent post
mastectomy boutique is $130,000. Isabos’ revenues will be received from
insurance, cash or small item financing depending on services. Estimates
are from AABCP survey research and team’s previous business revenue
of $185,000 annually for 5+ years.

The Problem
• 2.6 Million women & 10,000 men are LIVING with
breast cancer
• Mastectomy remains the treatment of choice for
both men and women diagnosed at most stages of
the disease.
• Breast cancer survivors are still faced with a lack
of knowledge and access to quality post
mastectomy care.

Cancer Survivors enable the client to viewing
and receive her post mastectomy items in a
private environment were she feels most
comfortable: office, home or doctor's office.
One on one, personalize post mastectomy
service independent of medical practice or
hospital service limiting protocols make
Isabos the care of choice.

Opportunity & Market
•
•
•
•
•
Currently 2.6 million women nationally are living with
breast cancer.
Mastectomy in some form is still the treatment of choice.
60% of breast cancer survivors DO NOT have
reconstruction requiring an external breast prosthesis and
supplies: either a custom prosthesis or a premanufactured prosthesis.
Houston, Isabos’ initial city is a Internationally known
cancer center.
Estimates based on sales 2005-2009. Isabo’s revenue
during the first 3 years will be earned from two sources:
web sales & provider services. Cash, credit and insurance
sales are estimated at: Year 1-$50,000; Year 2-$95,00;
Year 3-$155,000.

Technology
Technology is the KEY to Isabos’ Concierge Services. Isabos services are divided into two
levels. A Virtual Fitter combined with extensive information and a tailored commerce
website that provides services Nationally.
The Isabos Virtual Fitter. The first in the industry will utilize existing online
avatar / chat services to assist and follow up with those clients who
wish to use online services only.
In city. (Houston) Medical Concierge service provides a one on one
service. Many women post mastectomy can not or will not venture
into public due to the illness or the disfigure of the surgery. Isabos

years.
