Business Overview 42. Products/Services 63. Business Structure and Management 74. Market Analysis 95. Competition 116. Marketing Strategy 137. Finances 158. Action Plan 16Appendix I: Competitor Analysis 17Appendix II: Strategic SWOT Analysis 1. Business Overview Include in your overview: · what your business does, your products or services · how long you have been operating · the industry you’re in · point of difference over your competitors—such as different location, cheaper price or better service—and key benefits to your consumers · where the business will be in two-to-five years and how this will be achieved, e.g. your position financially and in the market place (you may need to complete this after you’ve worked through the other sections) Tip This section is a summary of your plan so complete it last Outline of services Example Business is a complementary medicine business based in Melbourne. The primary service is Kinesiology which promotes physical, emotional, mental, energetic and spiritual health. History Example Business has been in operation since February 2009 and sits within the Health Services and Complementary Medicine / Alternative Health Therapies industry. Example Business has one owner/manager and no staff are employed at this stage. Point of difference The business stands out from other complementary medicine businesses by: · being a holistic therapy which treats the whole person (physical, emotional, mental, energetic and spiritual) · adopting a modality with a process that is natural, gentle, safe, non-invasive and for people of any age and gender (including pets) · encompassing an education program that teaches clients to self heal (clients are often looking for more than just an hour treatment) · focussing on a strong online marketing presence · maintaining affordable services such as concessional rates and first session specials Service benefits From my personalised Kinesiology process, clients will be treated as a ‘whole person’ with a better understanding of the inner workings of their lives. Clients will be empowered with the knowledge and tools to heal and be healthy. The business will be accessible to a wider range of clients through: affordability, Kinesiology requires an average of only a few sessions per issue, and close proximity to local transport. Five year plan In five years, Example Business will have a network of clients in the Melbourne region and a national and international following in the online environment. The business will be sustainable with the ability to support the owner/manager on a full time basis. 2. Products/Services Describe what you are going to offer your customers, including: · exactly what you are going to sell or provide and how it will be produced · branding and packaging (where applicable) · ongoing product or service development · your product/service’s features and how they compare to major competitors · the price and how you have determined it (by considering production costs, labour and other overheads) · any dealings with supplier/s Tip Get information about defining your product Service: now and ongoing Kinesiology is the primary service. The training for this has been completed as at December 2009. The supporting equipment and stock have been purchased within the start-up budget allocated. Ongoing training and industry networking activities will be sought throughout the year through short courses, conferences and research. This will ensure skills and knowledge are kept up to date and to broaden the services offered. 20 CPE (continuing professional education) hours per year are a requirement for association, health fund and insurance membership. Branding A logo with the business name has been designed and implemented on all marketing and advertising material to enable brand recognition and to ensure a consistent image is maintained. This includes business cards, flyers, posters, articles, online business listings and the business website. The logo represents the idea of balance, a key aim of Kinesiology. The colour yellow is the main colour due to its association with happiness and energy. Price Since completing the final level of training in Kinesiology, the price for a session is based on timeframe and full rate or concessional: 1. $80/$65 for one hour (full rate/concession card holders) 2. $110/$90 for one and a half hours Price was determined by the average price of Kinesiologists in the Melbourne region who practice at the same level. To be both affordable to as many clients within the target audience and to charge an ethical amount, the lower end of the scale was chosen. Clients with eligible private health fund membership will also be able to receive a rebate. Price was also determined by ongoing business expenses which include: association and insurance membership, stock replacement, room rental, gas and electricity supply, telephone and internet services, further training, marketing and advertising. At the end of each financial year the price will be reviewed based on industry trends, business expenses and any further training attained. Suppliers In the future the business may expand to include product sales. At the moment, suppliers for equipment and stock have been sourced and registered with. The business is purchasing these at practitioner prices. 3. Business Structure and Management Describe the ownership structure (such as sole trader, partnership, company) including: · reasons for chosen structure · any trademarks, patents, web addresses and other intellectual property you need to protect · owners and any legal agreements you may need · any key staff, their involvement, responsibilities and expected salaries · your exit strategy Tip Get more information about business structures Structure The structure of the business is Sole Trader. The benefits of this structure include: low level of legal and tax formalities involved in setting up the business, inexpensive to set-up as a sole trader, and the control and profit remains entirely with the business owner. Protection The business has registered the name ‘Example Business’ in Victoria only. As a sole trader, the business has no protection from a company to take the name due to ATO laws. The business has registered two URLs ‘www.examplebusiness.com.au’ and ‘www.examplebusiness.net.au’. This needs to be renewed every two years. The business has not registered a trademark or any other IP. Owners and staff As a sole trader, the business does not have any legal or informal agreement with any other owner or business. The business does not employ any staff. This is a consideration for the five year mark. 4. Market Analysis Research your market and industry. Consider the following sources: industry profiles on IBISWorld (which can be viewed for free at any Victorian Business Centre), trade magazines, government reports such as the Australian Bureau of Statistics, consumer surveys, running focus groups, identifying your competitors, online keyword analysis etc. Briefly outline what market your product/service will serve and why. For example, if you plan to publish a magazine, you need to know about publishing trends, online competitors, other publications that cover your market (including their circulation, advertising rates, reader profiles) and identify a viable gap to fill. Make sure you include: · who will buy your product or service · where your market is located: local, regional, state, national or international · the state of the market: is it growing, declining, segmented? · market influences such as seasonal price fluctuations or trends · the price range: based on your target market will it be high, low or in the middle Tip Get more help about conducting market research Find your nearest VBC to access IBISWorld for free Target audience Complementary medicine targets people of all ages from babies to the elderly. Kinesiology can also be used with pets. Kinesiology targets any problem from physical complaints such as pain and disease, emotional problems such as depression, mental problems such as memory loss to spiritual problems such as life goals. To further define the audience, Example Business specialises in: · Women’s health · While females comprised half the population in 2004-05, they accounted for 62% of people who had visited a complementary health therapist in the previous two weeks (of the census) and 56% of people who had visited other health professionals. · Sleep disorders · Over 1.2 million Australians experience sleep disorders. · Stress, anxiety and depression · Depression is one of the most common of all mental health problems. One in five people experience depression at some stage of their lives. While everyone feels anxious from time to time, some people experience these feelings so often and/or so strongly that it can affect their everyday lives. · Emotional and spiritual well being Location The location of the business is currently Brunswick on the North side of Melbourne. The council is Moreland City. The service requires clients to travel to Brunswick. While the business has attracted clients from other areas of Melbourne such as the Southern Metro region, the target is mainly the inner and outer Northern suburbs. North Melbourne is suffused with successful complementary medicine businesses which highlights the community as common customers of complementary medicine. This is also a challenge to the business with a high number of competitors. A move to another affluent area that is less dominated is a possibility. From a national and international perspective, the business website utilises online social networking in the form of blog posts. The purpose of this is to support and educate those that cannot travel to the clinic or cannot afford the services. Market trends The enumerated population (those counted on census night in Moreland) was 135,205. However, the estimated resident population count (an estimate that accounts for people not counted in the census) was 144,015 (as at 30 June 2007). Individual income varies considerably
