In September, 2011, Minds + Machines unveiled its pricing scheme related to new .brand [[gTLD]]s. Its services start at $25,000 per year, which include preparing and filing the ICANN application and then running the technical back-end. Its price cieling tops off at $100,000 per year. Their business strategy is marketed towards corporations that want to quickly and affordably secure their .brand gTLD, but don't exactly have intentions to develop it as a public space immediately.<ref>[http://domainincite.com/mm-offers-brand-gtlds-from-25k/ MM offers Brand gTLDs from 25k, DomainIncite.com]</ref>
