Section C: Market Research and Target Market
1.
What Market Research did you do? Please include how you did your market research and how many people you spoke to. (5)
The Market research to go for diversification was done through interaction with the students
(class III to XII) during open house meetings. Parent’s feedback was taken during PTMs with aim to incorporate new ideas and bring novelty in the enterprise. Staff interaction too with their brilliant and innovative ideas benefitted the team of Creative Connections to diversify. As a matter of fact, the feedback given by our prime customers i.e. students, parents and staff members helped the enterprise in moving in altogether towards a new direction of trading, food and even herbal products. This year the team decided for a new innovative approach of open house wherein even Madam Principal along with the senior staff participated wholeheartedly. Approximately 1000 students, 800 parents and 150 staff members gave their valuable advice to make Creative Connections reach to its glory.
2.
What were the results of your Market research? Please include how your market has changed and how you will adapt. Also who is going to buy your new product or service and why? (10)
The team of Creative Connections did a back breaking strenuous exercise to deduce the brains and hearts of the young adolescents, mature parents and creative innovative teachers and change almost the complete profile of the team. The journey of the last three years had made the entire team enriched with a varied exposure. We reanalyzed the previous product structure and came to a conclusion that instead of targeting market, we should focus primarily on the staff, students and parents. Following are the other eminent changes that the team has decided to incorporate.

Elimination of Trousseau packing because of professionals in the market

Last but not the least, inspite of the best efforts put in by the teachers, students, we were not able to make contacts with the traders to procure order for trousseau.

New Business Development Plan Template 2015

 Elimination of Ceramic cups – the decorative ceramic cups have also been out of the product range of Creative Connections because of less demand.

The present product range of Creative Connections is as follows :-

In open house meeting, it was brought in the notice by the young entrepreneurs that the food line in the school would not only give huge profits because of the non availability of the canteen but also will cater to the genuine needs of the students in the healthiest manner. Hence, juice and shakes will be provided to the staff and students at a very nominal rate. Likewise, the non availability of stationery shop at time creates problem for the students and the teachers as well. In addition to, the concept of Trading has not been introduced by any of the competitors, so stationery products like pen, pencils, sheets etc. will be provided through the stationary corner through Trading.
While abiding ourselves with the nature, we explored the herbal products too. To make students apprise with the essence of doing away from preservatives and to move into the lap of nature, we have decided to explore the herbs.
Section D: Competitors and Competitive Advantage

a) Who are your main competitors and what are their strengths and weaknesses? Please fill in the
table below. You may add extra rows if you need to. (5)
Competitor Name
Who are your main competitors?
E.g. Mary’s vegetables
1. Existing brands of soft drink(e.g Real juices, frooti etc.).
2. Stationery shops nearby.
3. Delhi Haat (craft centre)
Strengths
What are your competitor’s main strengths?
E.g. Good reputation
Long shelf life, goodwill, preferred ones
More variety, more contacts with suppliers.
More professional, grabs more attention due to their decorated setups and cultural programme and schemes.
Experience, professional attractive package, marketing, advertising.
Weaknesses
What are your competitor’s main weaknesses?
E.g. Limited selection of vegetables
Health damaging preservatives – artificial taste
Not accessible to students during school hours.
Most craft items are not recycled based.
4.Khadi and Herbal brands
Cost factors b) Please provide a short summary of your competitor analysis (5).
The business team organized a meeting with Madam Principal, staff members and few students’ representatives. Initially when put the varied range of the products into the pipeline, it was really a fear factor to face real juices, frooti and other branded products for us, still with an indomitable faith in the management, students and their parents, we have decided to move ahead with shakes and juices. Availability of fresh and safe products during school working hours are a few other reasons that have inspired us for the prospective business.
The same emotion was shared when the team had thought provoking discussion on manufacturing of herbal lipsticks and room freshners. With the brands namely Lakme, Max factor, Revlon, L’Oreal etc, it seemed to be an impossible task for us to make the product sold out. But less cost, trust in the students and enthusiasm to be winners have propelled us to go with the herbal lipstick and room freshners.
In Art and Craft, Delhi Haat is the strongest competitor with more professionalism, experts and other promotional schemes. However, our clientage being students and parents affect much.
4.
How are you going to be better than your competitors? Please consider your answer to Question
3 in this response.
Creative Connections always has an upper edge to its competitors as far as the aim is considered.
Our business is based on the philosophy of altruism where as the competitiors’ sole motive is profit making. Even on technical aspect, following are the points which set ourselves apart from them- a) Food Corner: Providing healthy drinks like Lemonade, Homemade Frooti after activity period is not only profitable profitable but is also provided when it is actually required i.e. when students get too much exhausted. In addition to, our lemonade and homemade frooti are fresh and do not contain preservatives.

New Business Development Plan Template 2015

b) Art/craft items: Art and craft items have always been our forte as they not only personify creativity but are also prepared from recycled sheets, thus conserving environment and enhancing profits. This section has always gained a lot of appreciation from the customers and it is this recognition, bond and praise that set ourselves apart from the competitors. c) Stationery Corner: Creative Connections has introduced the concept of trading, an integral form of business in the series of products to let the students know that its not a child’s play.
As the school doesn’t have a stationery shop, so the team has turned the challenge into an opportunity wherein the basic stationery is the necessity of the students and the staff will be made accessible and that too at a very nominal rate. d) Herbal products: The most surprising and unique is the upcoming range of herbal products i.e. Herbal lipstick and Room Freshners which will be mostly encashed during PTMs. Its not only exciting to prepare Lipstick & Room Freshner on our own but extremely profitable not only to the business, to the environment but also to the prospective customers as well as it would be available at a very nominal rate compared to the high cost of the branded products.

It will groom their softskills, competitive analysis to evaluate different buyers and the most important the ability of decision making which we even find missing even in adulthood.
The prospective buyers i.e the students will be provided with fresh and healthy drinks after the strenuous activity period.
As the school doesn’t have a stationery shop, the students and the staff members were facing difficulty in procuring pen, compass, refills etc. during school working hours .With the trading corner, it would assist one and all.
In continuation to the philanthropic gesture, Creative Connections has always been sharing its profits with the community and will continue to do so.
Teachers too, are able to deliver their lecture with ease and perfection. The students are able to relate theory with the practical wisdom.
Parents are the most contended lot as they see their children blooming and grooming into young adults.
Green Grocers, Fruit sellers, Iceseller are a few who too would get benefitted as they are our chief raw material suppliers.
 Profit
Absence of fixed cost like labour cost, electricity, water etc has led to the minimum production cost.
Even the overheads too, are not so high, therefore the profit margin is set very high.
This time most of our products are need based which in itself is a promise of high profits.
