    3.6 Future Products and Services

    a long term strategy is surley planned in our business since the product is of non perishable nature andmost important thing is that the product is not of fad catefory or a temporary fashion which has a shortlife span,in the near future our motive will be to seek for international orders since the internationalmarket has a high demand for customized products but due to shortage and limited resources and aleast experience exporting outside from home country will not be a great and feasible step.

    the new and service lines will brought up by hiring different designerson a contract basis plus thecustomers are free to customise the products accordingto the likings,this has a great advantage for us

    because the designs and concecpts which the customers will provide to us will be saved to ourdatabase and time to time the best designs will be displayed on the website,this will help the newcustomers to look at new designs everyday and we will get new and innovative designs free of cost.

    A relationship is obviously existing if we take into consideration the market segment and marketdemand becasue the segment(already described in detail) has the highest demand from rest of thepopulation.the need for customized products will remain life long no matter which fashion is on thepeak but the demand for customized products will stay forever,this keeps our business on safe side.

    4.0 Market Analysis Summary

    The target market includes age group from children from the gae of 10 years to adults upto 55years,the reason for such a large range is beacuse we are providing products ranging from cups toteddy bears including tshirts,posters etc.each product has different target customers for exampleteenagers or youth will be targeted for thirts,girls and womern will be targeted for cups,tedd bears etc.

    4.2.1 Market Needs

    The business which we want to indulge has a high potential because the today scenario has a highvariety of brands which have high cost and the market of customized products declined during the pastbecause of less resources and lack of funds but now with the passage of time,internet has emerged asan major way of communication and doing business,this has decreased the expense part and hand onhand provided a great place to find best resources available.take an example of our business,now wedont have expenses to open a retails tore,to have physical assets,to communicate through physicalmeans,now with the growing of internet technology we have an opportunity to deal in business onlineand and access to our website will be done from each kind of cusomer who has an internet

    access,therefore the biggest advantage is maintaining a single store for global customers.

    The customized product need has been in demand forever,we can see people prefering customizedproducts more than branded products when it comes to personal choice.

    The time to go for shopping exist nowhere for a consumer in todays world scenario therefore peoplehave started showing a trend of buying online,which has a positive forecast for our business,if we canmaintain a higher satisfactory percentage both in case of products as well as services,we have anenormous oppurtunity to banf the top position in the coming years

    4.2.2 Market Trends

    The factors which are defining the market trend can be cleary seen in the following link-

    related products more will be attraction of indian people.The western trend in india has emerged uptothe maximum level and now agian people look for traditional customized product whichis not avaialabewith renowned brands,our business will provide these range or products and we can gain competitiveedge in this regard.

    4.3.2 Distributing a Service

    The company is into direct sales to consumers,both to idividual consumers and corporate houses.Thecourier service will pick the product directly from the printing hub and will deliver the product direct to

    the customers,the courier service with whihc we will have a contract will be reputed one and once theorder is shipped to the customer,we will have a regular track to the order until and unless it is deliveredto the customer and the customer is fully satisifed with the product.

    The direct sales to customers will decrease cost and the hadnling of product will also be safe.

    The manufacturers dont have a direct sales force but we will be directing the courier guys to pick theorder from the place of printing hub rather than adopting a strategy in which the printed final productwill be delivered to our office and then the courier people will pick the product from our office.this

    strategy will waste time as well as increase the transporation cost.

    4.3.3 Competition and Buying Patterns

    The competition in out industry is not high but still the competition exist,as expalined earlier mostpeople shift from one website of online shopping to another becasue the after sales services provided

    Myntra.com has a tie up with more than 200 international and national brands.

    Weakness-

    Least in terms of range of customized products.

    The myntra has the largest problem of onlien transactions,20 % of online transactions fail

    The customer base is high and therefore the service quality provided has become poor thereforepeople have started shifting to other online portals.

    Threat-

    The upcoming of new online shopping portals having lower price and more variety of products.

    Opportunity-

    The opportunity for myntra is to start the business in multi brand retail since they have well establishedname in the market.

    6.1 SWOT Analysis

    6.1.1 Strengths

    Online shopping is easy and convenient,consumer can purchase products with comfort attheir home inspite of spending time in the different shops.

    provide detailed information about the products in depth. Labour-cost saving since hiring of salespersons are not necessary to serve online customers. Different payment options are being offered (i.e. credit card, cash or cheque on delivery). the site has personalized options. Consumers are able to keep track of what they have

    recently viewed Value-added features like shopping cart is provided to keep track of the total expenses and

    the goods bought The site has personalized options. Consumers are able to keep track of what they have

    recently viewed. Feedback can also be given

    6.1.2 Weaknesses

    The site has to be maintained and updated regularly. Thus a cost is involved. Many are still uncertain and insecure about online shopping. With many Internet frauds

    around, consumers may feel threatened when disclosing their personal information or makingany transactions online.

    It takes time before the goods are being delivered to the consumers doorsteps.

    Business Plan for Fashionandyou

  • 8/2/2019 Business Plan for Fashion&You

    17/40

    6.1.4 Threats

    Consumers may enjoy shopping in a physical store the traditional way. New entry of other competitors may also emerge in the near future. The low barriers and the comparatively low overhead costs allow a for a relative easy entry into

    the market. This increases the level competition and can cause a reduction in prices and profitmargins. Threats are produced not only by other retailers within the same industry but also bythe manufactures that supply the products that the retailer sells. It is not uncommon for onlineretailers to directly compete with the manufacturer of the lines they carry.

    Internet sales only have tax applied to the purchase if the buyer and seller reside in the same

    state. Considering the growth and amount of tax revenue lost to e-commerce, the federalgovernment and individual states could write legislation to impose tax on all online sales. Thiswould remove one incentive to conducting business online.
