HEE Corp Announces Marketing Direction For HPB-84
HEE Corporation, Inc. (HCCF on OTC Pink Sheets), the international manufacturer of HPB-84, a nutraceutical developed in India, announced today their plans for going forward.


    /24-7PressRelease.com/ - Hutchinson, KS, March 6, 2005 - "HEE Corp continues to generate solid marketplace interest in its Type II Diabetes nutraceutical, HPB-84, and it has developed a base of enthusiastic and satisfied users. However, its ability to penetrate its key market segment targets, continues to be slower than the Company originally expected," explains Herbert Becker. "Since joining HEE as the Interim-CEO and Chairman of the Board a few weeks ago, together with members of my staff, we have conducted a thorough review of the Company's business and its impact in order to determine what is needed to accelerate marketplace penetration."

"A key conclusion from this analysis is that meeting the needs of the varied marketplace segments HEE Corp has been targeting (i.e. doctors, clinics, and medical groups) with its 'one-size-fits-all' system, has been and continues to be very challenging," added Mr. Becker. "While progress is being made, efforts must continue to ensure that the Company's unique nutraceutical consistently and accurately conforms to the differing needs of these high-potential markets before accelerated marketplace progress can be expected."

Radley Brooks, HEE President continued, "To help address this situation, HEE Corp. is taking the following steps."

1. We realize that we must make our product available to the people that need it. We are in the process of creating an e-commerce site that will include a consultation link along with a tablet-dosing program. This will allow each person to learn how much to buy for a 30, 60 or 90 day session, bringing our product right to their doorstep;

2. Reducing HEE's monthly corporate 'burn rate' and re-examining the appropriateness of a 'direct sales' approach compared to broader licensing or distribution agreements. In the near term, the principal sales focus will be on the needs and opportunities for growth within the Company's existing base;

3. Exploring the potential for joint ventures or broader based alliances with larger, more financially and technically 'deep' organizations as a means of more efficiently and rapidly capitalizing on the sizable opportunity available for HEE's nutraceutical within the respective market segments such groups can target;

4. Email marketing, national and international media attention;

5. Concurrent with these activities, evaluating financial alternatives to provide the Company with an appropriate capital base to execute its plan.

"We continue to be extremely optimistic about HEE's long-term potential and expect that the new operational steps outlined here will improve the Company's ability to more fully and rapidly penetrate its target markets," Mr. Becker concluded.

The Company is projecting potential gross sales of $5,000,000 to 7,000,000 in 2005 from all sources. Average gross margins in the range of 37% to 42% are expected to be achieved. Such margins may be substantially increased considering the Company's ongoing licensing discussions with potential regional distributors. The Company's projections do not include international sales generated from the distribution channels to be established as part of any licensing deals.
