The keys to this project's success will undoubtedly be effective market segmentation through
identification of several niche markets and implementation strategies. Along these lines

strategies to its target markets. Hence the key success factors will include the following:
Excellence in fulfilling the promise:
Completely confidential, reliable, trustworthy expertise and service(s) through the
provision of an uncompromising service. This dictates that we have in place the latest
technology, hardware and software, and well-trained personnel so as to fulfill the aforesaid.
Timely response to clients' orders: We cannot afford to delay our clients for whatever
reason, as this will have a negative bearing on our image and reputation, including future
business. Hence we need to be continually communicating with the client ensuring we
provide needs-based solutions and quick response to our online product purchasing.
Skill and depth of knowledge: Considering the nature of our services and their relative
infancy on the market, the skill and depth of knowledge of our personnel shall be of utmost
importance in determining the provision of the service(s) to the end-users.
Marketing know-how: In a relatively volatile market there will be a need to aggressively
market our business and the services we provide so as to be continuously at the top of our
prospective and current clients minds. This will also act as a temporary deterrent for
companies contemplating entering our market. Advertising shall be one of our competitive
advantages.
Leveraging from a large pool of expertise: The company's various alliances with
technological partners shall prove invaluable considering the skills and intellectual capacity
these partners will have in the fields of design and system integration, implementation and
execution, lifecycle support and understanding, and in the application of new technology.
This has the potential of proving to be an important differentiator on the market.

it is feasible to enter this particular market at the current point and time, and if so, how
being what making strategy of entry should be used on entering the market in order to

with a few randomly selected citizens of Trinidad and Tobago to assist with analyzing the
feasibility for demand and supply of their product and services as well as the competitors
within the marketof Trinidad and Tobago.
After research, it is evident that there is alot of potential for ElCov Ltd to easily merge into
a market of this type and be very profitable based on the uniqueness of the services
proposed. There are however current competitors on the market that supply the same
product that ElCov Ltd will be supplying. These business are Exotic Glow Cosmetics &
Beauty Supplies, Trinidad Carnival Diary, Pennywise, Monique's Hair & Beauty Supply Store, T

4.2 Target Market Segment Strategy

Eloquent Covering Ltd will target each of the four (4) groups pointed out in the marketing
segementation at different angels and levels. Our target market segments are fairly broad,
in part because our services appeal to such a wide range of people.
Our marketing strategy will be based mainly on making the right service(s) available to the
right target customer. We will ensure that our services' prices take into consideration our
customers' budgets, and that our business is will advertised by us and in turn our
customers due to the services and quality of services provided.
ElCov Ltd will be using market penetration to promote and sell their products and also
utilizing the marketing mix as much as they can to get the best results. For creating this
competitive advantage, the company would pitch the product at a low initial price on the
market in order to gain a share on the market and to encourage early adoption and trial.

Our service will be sold to the focused target market highlighting its differenciation and
uniqueness of service which would bring an overall competitive advantage for the business.

Eloquent Coverings Business Plan


4.3 Service Business Analysis

Eloquent Coverings Ltd is currently in the "Hair" industry. This is a fair diverse industry. On
one end of the spectrum you have the traditional hair shop where a customer can go to
purchase a wig, while on the other end you have the fashionable boutique salons that sells (a
small variety) and dress their customers with these wigs, and also give advise to them as to
how they look with it. Right between these two services in where ElCov services falls as
well be providing a large range of wigs, and innovative system so that users can see how they
look before the fact of purchase, as well as trained staff to help guide customers in selecting
the most suitable wig.
Most similar salons are owner operated, with additional hairstyling or station employees,
or with independently contracted stylists who work on commission. (ElCov Ltd uses a mix
of these two models.)
Currently, most of the competitors on the local market buy their product from a local sales
person who get his products wholesale from hair manufacturing companies. ElCov has
intensions of leaving out this man in the middle which has his marked up price and liaise
directly with personnel from these manufacturing companies.

Page 13

Eloquent Coverings Business Plan


4.3.1 Competition and Buying Patterns

The key element in purchase decisions of products made at the company's client level is trust
in the professional reputation and reliability of the business. The most important factor in
this market will be the quality of the products and service.
Clients also choose products based on proximity to their daily travels from home and work,
and good pricing.
The buying patterns of men and women are quite different. Typically men are more price or
convenience sensitive. Men typically care less about the task of getting a hair piece that
looks best on them. For them whatever is easiest works best. Women on the other hand
are more caught up in hair styling and tend to bond more with their stylists. Because they
bond more, they are much more loyal to their stylist. Based of this fact, they focus more on
quality of service.
The nature of competition where product is concerned in this industry boils down to who
provide the better quality product at a cheaper price and to have an extraordinary service
provided in order to keep customers. In line of the industry where service is concerned,
clients rarely compare service providers directly, but visits based on word-of-mouth
recommendation by friends, colleagues, family and other significant ones.
ElCov Ltd, being the only one in the service field that can provided the most accurate result
of look for a client, has no competition in this field and would use this differentiation as a
method in gain customers attention and then using the staff and service provided to gain
their trust.

Page 16

Eloquent Coverings Business Plan


5.1.4 Threats

Competition from already establish business that offer a wide range of our products
With increasing technology, there is a possibility that another competitot can invest
in a more innovative solution to provide the service that our current Future Look
system offers and cause us to become updated.
With current monitoring of the world econmic scales, if the local market were to
be affected by any decrease in employment or earnings, the client's in turn would
not have the full freedom of spending any leisure monies and before, therefore
causing our sales ratio to drop.

5.2 Competitive Edge


Our competitive edge is our dominance of high-technology service and traditional high-quality
wigs at a cost just below the average market price. Although there are many wig stores, and many
computer programming firms, none have brought the two crafts together as we have.
We focus on a special kind of customer, the person who wants very high quality of wig at a
faction of the cost, thoses that are about qualities of services, thoses that just want a product on
the go and others that like to try new trend and styles in the market and those that prefer making
a purchase and having it delievered at their door steps. Our customer might be part of a larger
corporations, small or medium business, or in a home office with or without a home-office
business. What is important to the customer is elegance, great customer relations, ease of use,
ergonomics, and practicality.
The product strategy is also based on quality, in this case the intersection of technical
understanding with very high quality of customer services and support.
An important competitive edge is our Future Look system, which allows a customer or client to see
themselveswearing their product of choice before they purchase it. This is actually a feature that
enhances the sense of quality and trust for our customers.

Page 17

Eloquent Coverings Business Plan


5.3 Marketing Strategy

One core element of our strategy will be that of differentiation from our competitors. In
terms of marketing, we intend to sell our company as a differentiated focus strategic ally,
due to our Future Look system. In price for our products, we intend to offer reasonable and
competitive prices in comparison to competition and we need to be able to sustain that.
Market penetration through lower prices shall be undertaken where need be. Our service
marketing will strive to ensure that we establish long-term relationships with clients. Our
primary intention will be to sell a relationship more than services.
Our service marketing will emphasize the benefits of speed, interaction and flexibility to be
gained from utilizing our services. The approach will be entirely needs-driven and a
thorough understanding of the business requirements, business processes and technology
strategy of the customer being the basis on which an Eloquent Coverings Ltd solution will
be built. Once the needs and processes are understood and described, leading edge
products and best-of-industry skills will be applied to design and develop a fitting solution to
satisfy the need and enable the customer's business in the most cost effective way

5.4 Sales Strategy

One of ElCov Ltd sales strategy will be based on extremely professional interactions with
the customer. Typically the current competitors concentrate on being quick and somewhat
inexpensive, often at the expense of customer service. Anytime that a prospective customer
is speaking with someone at ElCov's the employee will have an opportunity to impress the
customer. Employee training will emphasize seizing these opportunities.
ElCov will also provide complimentary coffee for clients within to use their systems for view
their hair styles as well as provide a 5% discount on all items in the store for customers
that used the Future Look system. Each new customer will be able to participate in a
promotion the our company will be offering. Each customer would be given a card that is
punch each time they make a purchase at our business. After this card has been punch 10
times the customer will be given a coupon for a free chance to use the Future Look system as
well as 10% off all items store wide.
As customer feedback start to be collected, ElCov Ltd will keep looking and new and
improved ways in maintaining the competitive advantage through there sales strategy.

Page 18

Eloquent Coverings Business Plan


5.4.1 Sales Forecast

Eloquent Covering Ltd will be receiving its income from sales of their products and uses of
their Future Look system.
ElCov Ltd expects a growth rate of between 10-25% each year for the next three (3) years.
Unit price per item could fluctuate however, the decrease or increase in selling price would
be a strategic move based on the moves that current competition on the market may take.
The sales are projected at levels shown below for the company to have a fair idea of how to
plan each financial year. If the sales were projected higher than the approximate value then
at the end of the financial year, the companies status would project a great profit income
than expect which would be somewhat of a misleading expectation of the companies
profits. If the sales were projected lower than the approximate value then the company
stand a chance in running into depth after seeking financial resources for the financial year.
The important elements of the Sales Forecasts are shown in the chart and table below.
Initial sales forecast indicate first year revenue of $363,861 increasing to $458,109 million
by the end of the second year, then $575,226 million by the end of the third year. These
figures are based on revenue from minimum average estimates from ElCov Ltd.
We expect income to increase steadily over the next three years, as the reputation of the
business and services to increase as the business becomes more apparent to target
markets and the general public.
The sales forecast table shows our expectations for the next three years. The attached
appendix shows the monthly growth.

Eloquent Coverings Business Plan


7.0 Financial Plan

The premier element in our financial plan is initiating, maintaining, and improving the factors
that create, stabilize, and increase our cash flow. These factors are as follows:
1.

We must create visibility so as to create customer flow.


We must maintain a dependable, cheerful employee force so as to minimize
turnover.
3. We must create a brisk turnaround on our retail products, always maintaining
viable stock levels.
4. Set cash flow as first priority, growth as second, and profits as third.
5. Harvest willingness to follow the project objectives and contribute valuable input to
strategy and implementation decisions.
2.

Our financial plan for the next three years includes revenue streams from product sales and
service usage. The projections for the first year are therefore much different from the
starting balances for our last year. The major accompanying expense is a much higher
personnel payroll, inventory products, advertising, as well as high rent for the location, to
accommodate of business services.
We want to finance growth mainly through cash flow and equity. We recognize that this
means we will have to grow more slowly than we might like.
ElCov is seeking financing to achieve the goal of becoming a great provider of hair wigs and
visionary services. We will use this money to renovate the new space so that we can build
our clientele base, increase revenues, maintain a positive cash flow, and steadily increase
the net worth of the business with good management.

7.2 Important Assumptions

The following table shows important financials assumptions for our plan, including a
projected interest rate for the long-term loan we are seeking. We are also assuming:
1.

No serious disability on the part of either owner which prevents her from working
No new direct competition for hair replacement services in Anytown in the next
three years
3. No sudden changes in licensing or technology which would make our services
obsolete
4. Access to equity capital and financing to support our financial plan.
5. Our financial progress based on realistic sales to minimum sales against highest
expenses.
6. There will not be an economic crash that would greatly hinder our target market's
access to their personal luxury finds.
2.

7.3 Break-even Analysis

Our Break-even Analysis will be based on running costs, that is, costs we shall incur in
keeping the business running, including salaries and wages, rent, computer maintenance
costs, water and electricity, and insurance amongst others. Hence many fixed costs shall be
included in these costs. We will thus ensure that our sales levels are running comfortably
above break-even. The following table summarizes our break-even analysis for ElCov Ltd.

7.4 Projected Profit and Loss

Initial marketing and training expenses will be relatively high as we seek to become known
on the market and staff get trained in provision of our services. This will be brought about by
the development of sales literature, advertising expenses, function expenses including
lunches and dinners with interested stakeholders. As our market share increases and capital
is generated, further marketing programs and the expansion of those in existence at the time
will be undertaken, to ensure market development. However with time these programs will
start generating revenue for the business, which we shall in turn reinvest. The following table
