A native from Grasse, Mrs Loos Clergeau founded Rose officially in
2008, but the idea was in her mind for many years.
She decided to develop her idea in 2007. She started by launching a
business plan and a communication plan in order to raise funds.
Her idea was to create a company devoted to natural cosmetics, with
products made in France by small local producers.
Due to her motivation and perspicacity she won the titles «Prix de
l’entreprenariat 2008» and «Créatrice d’avenir» titles that reward
brilliance and initiative.

Thanks to this award she won 50 000€ which allow her to develop
partnership with local producers such as EARL LA VIOLETTE located
in Grasse, well known for its production of high-quality flowers.
Then Anais Loos Clergeau decided to pay a tribute to her city by giving
the name Rose to her company. As we know, Grasse is well known for
its flowers and in particularly because of its roses production.
In September 2008 she was able to show samples to cosmetic shops,
in order to develop partnerships with distributors. One month later she
had already created a partnership with Sephora

At the beginning in 2008, the products were only sold in France, but as the sales were increasing every month, Rose decided to implement subsidiaries in the natural market. Firstly, the company choose to established an office in London, capital of fashion and luxury goods. The company employed 4 executives to study and understand the English market. Rose made a first partnership with a famous luxury retailer. As it was a success the board-directors took the decision to stay permanently.
2008In 2009, the company continued to develop its influence and made partnership with Spain, Italy, Netherlands.
2009In 2010, a report showed an important number of orders via rose website from the United States, so Rose choose to open subsidiaries there.This fast development allow the company to be very quickly well known and recognized in the world as a quality company which sales a large range of cosmetic products.
2010In 2012 Rose plan to conduct a study on the Asian market, because the luxury goods demand was increasing faster than expected. For example, according to some experts China will soon be the first country in luxury goods consumption.

employees but with an important growth: between 2009 and 2011 the
turnover has more than doubled. In 2011 the turnover reached 15
million.
The Company
Firstly, the headquarter was located in Grasse, but it was not very
convenient to develop partnership with international distributors, so the
company decided to relocate to Paris in 2010.

We have decided to offer to customers a small range of products
to customers, but only to offer the best. All our products are made
in factory in the south of France and only use all natural and
organic products, in order to manufacture high quality products.
The fact that Rose is the leading brand of natural cosmetic
products in French pharmacies is very demonstrative of the
French cosmetic market as a whole. Women look for products
that are both beautiful and good for their health. Using our
products is an enjoyable experience beyond their efficacy
because everything we create is attractive and elegant, from the
textures of our cream formulas to their fragrances.

Main ProductsMoisturizing creamCrème de Rose, is a special product for the brand, it was the first one to be launch.
Four years after its creation, it’s still our number one product. This multi-purpose
cream nourishes, repairs, and protects skin thanks to its unique concentration of
precious plant extract a silicon-free formula. This is why we decided to start
exporting the cream the Rose abroad, as it is really representative of the quality of
our products. What is a moisturizing cream? Creams are generally consisting of two
basic components, an oil phase and an aqueous phase. A cream is formed when the
oil phase is successfully emulsified into the water, producing an emulsion of stable
and solid consistency. As Rose is only using good quality products, the result is that
we are producing an excellent quality cream, we only use distilled mineral water, and
premium oils, from rare and organic herbs, to make sure we only give the best to our
clients. The factory is located in the South of France, a place famous for its
knowledge of perfume, and its ability to extract essential oil from herbs and flowers.

Functions of the “Crème de Rose” creamA cream is used to deliver and hold nutrients and medications on
the skin's surface. Both the oil and aqueous components can be
used as a carrier. The skin has a limited capacity to absorb many
oils and is responsive to surface medications such as herbal
extracts, and to vibrational energies such as Flower essences.
This is why our creams are not saturated with products, Rose
knows that it is not by adding considerable amount of active
elements that our cream will be efficient, but by the right dose of
every elements. This led to the efficacy of Crème de Rose, directly
related to the quality of the added ingredients, their concentration
and how well either the oil or the water deliver ingredients on the
skin's surface and facilitate its absorption into the skin.

How the herbal and flowers extracts are prepared is crucial in determining their efficacy in our cream. Our factory
receive fresh delivery of plants and flower from the region every morning, because for a top quality finished product
the raw materials also have to be good quality.
We have decided that we will start by launching two different version of crème de jour on the Chinese market.

Advertising Campaign
A new ad campaign will show our potential customers how we
position Rose, and the “Crème de Rose” that we plan to sell on
the Chinese market. Those advertisements will be the most
important aspect of our marketing plan. Brand positioning, as well
as product or service positioning, can be expressed in many
ways, from a simple slogan to an entire campaign. We have
decided to collaborate with a really famous actress, Zhang Ziyi, to
reflect the prestigious side of our brand. The colors uses in our
brand are also very light, to give an impression of light and
elegance.

Advertising Campaign
First we identify the target audience, we decide whom the message is for, in
the case of Rose the main targets are the middle and the upper class, the
new generation, who now have access to western products, and are
attracted by consumption. Though the current target who is interesting for
Rose is the upper class. They are educated, married, and live in cities, which
already represent a large number of women. And also the hundreds of
millions of women who today are not middle class but who will soon be
joining the existing consumers After we assessed the competition, and we
discovered that if there is no Chinese equivalent brands to Rose, there is
also a lot other brand. Those brands are Korean, American, French … but
the common factor is that luxury beauty products in China are often sold by
foreign brands.

Regarding the legal and regulatory environment, the rules are
less restrictive in China, and if a product meets the French
legal requirements it can be sold on the Chinese market
without any problem. There is no need to adapt or to change
the product by itself. We changed the name of the products, so
Chinese customers can memorize it easily, but it was not a
legal obligation.

Advertising Campaign
What would the marketer like the audience to do after they
get the message? For us it is simple, we want to aware
customers that our Crème de Rose will be soon available
in the Sephora shops. Make a big event of that, so people
get exited about this event too. Our marketing objectives
are of course to increase the sales of Rose, and succeed
to position our products. And at the same time build a
strong network with our distributor Sephora. The first
action that we will take to increasing brand awareness will
be to conduct an advertisement campaign in magazines.
The response sought

appealing to the audience. In our case we thought women’s magazines,
and in particular Vogue, and Bazaar. They both are read by the upper
class, our main target. We know that women who read those magazines
have money and are attracted by fashion and brand. First those
magazines are expensive for the Chinese population, and then they only
present brands and expensive clothes and cosmetics, so women reading
Vogue and Bazaar are our exact targets. We know that having an
advertisement in this magazine is a good investment.

After, we choose the message. Concerning the source’s attributes, what about the
product or company rose want to communicated. We want to show an appropriate
image of the brand, all the ideas of the culture, what the brand Rose represent have
to be presented. And what is the most appropriate medium, which one is the most
Advertising Campaign
Our financial department calculated the price for printing our commercials on
Vogue and Bazaar and regarding the fact that the target is perfectly defined, it
appears to be the best investment. (€30,000 per page) The cost per thousand
readers is really reasonable. Our budget is determined by a fixed percentage
of sales. We hope to cover 15% of the market of luxury moistening creams
during the first quarter of 2012. And as in France and all the other European
countries we achieved this objective, we think it can be possible in China too.
And thanks to the European sales we can afford to pay for an quite expensive
campaign in China. About the time for our advertisement, we have decided to
start the promotion one week before the Chinese New Year, as during this
period fortunate people can offer Crème de Rose as an expensive an valuable
gift, because during this period a lot of gifts will be exchanged.

Advertising Campaign
After the launch of the campaign we will have to collect
the feedback. We will probably carry out a market
research to monitor how effective the promotion was.
Does the people know what is Rose? Do they know the
name of our products? “A report called "Marketing to
the New Chinese Consumer”, presented at Global
Advertiser Week in Beijing by the World Federation of
Advertisers in association with Forbes Insights
explores how major brands are approaching China's
emerging consumer, based on a survey of 310 China-
based marketing executives and follow-up interviews. “

We know that eight out of ten China based marketers
said the biggest opportunity to grow in China is to go
beyond saturated cities like Beijing and Shanghai. But
we still think it is important to start by those big cities.
Like all foreign brands will start by implementing their
brand in Paris. In fact in China there is more than a
hundred cities with a population exceeding 1 million of
inhabitants, so it let plenty of other cities, not only
Beijing and Shanghai. Which make more
opportunities for us, and less chance to face a
saturated market in the next few years.
Advertising Campaign
The Chinese Government is also very committed to
developing the western part of the country in order to
minimizing the gap between the urban rich east cost
and the remaining hundreds of millions living in poverty
in the countryside. “According to McKinsey, half of
China's 100 largest cities will experience at least 50%
growth in consumption between 2008 and 2015, and
25 will double their consumption.” This is why it the
perfect moment for our brand to settle in China, in a
moment where all western brands are new.

Rose is already successful in France and in the European markets, sales
margin have doubled in only four years. Moreover the new settlement in
the United States enables the company to increase more the turnover.
Since its establishment Rose received good feedback from the United-
States. Rose has only been introduced to the American market in
September 2011 but is already well implemented on this market, it
reaches the same level of its competitor established there for many
years such as Chanel. Due to these advantages and increasing turnover
rates, Rose has the financial capacity to settle on a new market. After
having made studies and a business plan the company decided to
explore the Asian market.
Why does Rose want to explore an other foreign market ?

billion in 1978 to nearly RBM 1,800 billion in 1990. The growth rate of real GNP in each of these years exceeded
about 9%, and so as the growth in foreign exchanges.
This economic development has resulted in a
significant increase in the living standards of the
Chinese people and have generated a growing
demand for imported goods. In response to this
huge and rapidly increasing market potential,
overseas companies have been fervently pursuing

influence of western habits has been key in this development, as have rising average incomes in China. Today, with
fast increasing income and consumer purchasing power, China presents unprecedented opportunities for small and
medium sized foreign consumer goods.
The Chinese market has a fast growing purchasing power.
And an increasing demand for quality western products.
China's increasing economic strength and living standards
have created a market with huge purchasing potential.
China will soon be the largest consumer of luxury goods.
China has now realized that importing is the way to develop
the economy and raise consumption. The rapid and
continuing increase in imports shows clearly that China is
not only a big market for exporters now, but also is
potentially a huge market with many business opportunities.

In order to succeed Rose has planned to recruit Chinese employees
and to develop an Asian department, because it is very important to
understand the special needs of Chinese people, and to be aware of
cultural differences. Products will also be adapted to the Chinese
market, the name of the company will be translated into an easily
pronounceable word for Chinese people : Bai Hua. The company has
already created new packaging especially for the Chinese market. It
is also important to select an adapted distribution channel, because

essential to build a strong network with local retailers. Rose also planned to launch a massive advertising campaign
after the Chinese new year, which starts the 23 of January.
