...Ozark Mutts & Meows Marketing Plan Ozark Mutts & Meows Marketing Plan 1.0 Executive Summary Ozark Mutts & Meow is a start-up company entering a new market of mobile veterinary services and in-home pet sitting services. The pet service industry in 2011 spent $50.96 billion (APPA). In 2012, APPA estimates pet service spending to increase to $52.87 billion. Mobile veterinary services and in-home pet services will change the way pet owners will receive services for their pets. Pets will be allowed to remain in the comfort of their own environment (home or property) which in turn creates less stress on the pet. Pet owners will benefit from these services because they will not need to travel to a stationary location in order to receive veterinary services or pet sitting services. There were 72.9 million homes in the United States with pet in 2011 (APPA). Ozark Mutts & Meow will be creating a unique service to the market with minimal competition from competitors in other markets. The company will achieve fast market penetration through use of online and offline advertisement, building of customer loyalty and brand awareness, and outstanding customer service. 2.0 Section Analysis Ozark Mutts & Meow is entering its initial year of operation. According to the 2011-2012 American Pet Products Association (APPA) National Pet Owners Survey, 62% of United States households own a pet, which equates to 72.9 million homes.

When customers allow their dogs to be groomed at the Smith home they are surrounded by love all day, are able to play and roam within my home, and have a fenced-in backyard to explore. FiFi Et Moe is a superior alternative to a grooming because the dogs get attention all day, are never caged and have ample opportunities to exercise. Basically, the dogs become a temporary member of the household. FiFi Et Moi is able to offer this specialized attention because they are equipped to handle only four dogs at a time. FiFi Et Moi will compete directly with other groomers but offer a superior service. Once word gets out about FiFi Et Moi, the schedule is forecasted to be near capacity within the...

...Proposal for Online Business Expansion Part 2 U Dirty Dawg Mobile Pet Spa is a pet grooming business that travels to customers home and provides business-to-consumer grooming services, they are located in Saint Cloud, Florida and serve majority of the cities in the surrounding area. Mobile grooming is a personalized service and typically charges $10-$20 higher than salon grooming and by keeping their cost low U Dirty Dawg can offer their services at a competitive price. The benefits of mobile grooming are that it saves the drop off and pick up time, avoids the dog hair mess in the car, and it is beneficial for pets that are sensitive and anxious around other animals. Estimated that 68% of all U.S. households own a pet, which equates to 82.5 million homes and in 2013 the pet industry represented $55.33 billion dollars (American Pet Products Association, Inc., 2014). The pet industry is a very lucrative industry and it is important that this company take ahold of their target market and expands their business. At the present the company does not have a strong online strategy; it has a web page with their contact information, price list, about us, benefits of grooming, and pictures. All sales are done over the phone or in person and their email are used to provide additional information to potential customers. The local market is starting to get saturated with competition and the company is aware of the importance to have competitive advantage over their competitors and position...

...SWOT Analysis For my SWOT analysis I chose Noah’s Arf; a Dog and Cat Kennel business plan. This isn’t your ordinary kennel; the company will also offer things like wash your own pet, overnight care, daycare, pet portraits, in home care, pet grooming, animal behavior and other specified needs. To begin the SWOT analysis I will look at the strengths. The woman behind the idea Kris Price has 23 years as an active Customer Service oriented business professional. She has earned the respect of her colleagues. The Business Plan has a set goal while anticipated some initial loss but expecting an increase in profit throughout the next few years. Kris has a daughter who is a veterinarian that will be joining the company which will help ease the minds of potential clients to know their pets will be safe. Kris has also through the years been a pet owner so she understands the clientele that she is trying to attract. She knows that people value their pets and nowadays they are treated more than just family. The other thing I liked was that it is a 24 hour service so when you take that later flight home you can swing by and pick up the dog without having to accrue an extra days’ worth of charges. When it comes to Weaknesses I didn’t notice many in this Business Plan. Kris Price has her client base focused on a small group I felt. Yes, she wants something in an upscale area looking at two income working families but I believe widening the audience would help her attract more of a client...

EXECUTVE SUMMARY The idea of 5 STAR CATS was born from the necessity of Catalina of finding a friend to look after her cat during holidays. Luckily, one of her friends was available and willing to check on her cat but the solution was not perfect because the two of them haven’t met before and her friend was not knowledgeable about cats. Any cat owner knows how difficult it is to find a trusted sitter, who not only understands the needs of your pet and of the owner but with whom you are in confidence enough to give him the keys of your flat. Catalina was always reluctant to leave her cat in a hotel or to call a professional sitter, for the same reasons: “I would not leave my cat in the hands of a stranger and give him my keys. Ideally I wanted to be part of a network of...

...Starting and Managing a Business Assignment 2 – Group based Assignment January 2013 Presentation 1. Executive Summary This document proposes the feasibility of opening a new Pet Lovers Centre Franchise outlet at the proposed recreational hub at the site of the former Parkland Golf Range in 2014. We see a need for more pet friendly facilities at East Coast Park and we believe that of all the pet franchises operating locally, Pet Lovers Centre has the most compatible business practices and values with our intended business. With steady growth in both the pet population and pet product sales in Singapore, we are targeting the middle class segment primarily, with products priced between $1, up to $500. Our main focus is on dog owners who enjoy bringing their dogs out to play at the beach or park. With an existing market share of 49.7 percent, Pet Lovers Centre is well positioned to benefit from the increased exposure towards pet activities once the hub opens. Our financial projections show that the project will be financially feasible with gross profits of about $300,000 annually, and net income of about $100,000 each year. Our monthly breakeven point requires us to sell roughly 67 units of pet accessories with an average worth of $150, as well as 53 grooming and training appointments worth $350 per session to meet costs monthly. Our estimated starting capital required is $300,000, 50% of which will come from shareholders as equity and the remainder...

In this chapter, we take a closer look at the most important element of the marketplace—customers. The aim of marketing is to affect how customers think and act. To affect the whats, whens, and hows of buyer behavior, marketers must first understand the whys. In this chapter, we look at final consumer buying influences and processes. In the next chapter, we’ll study the buyer behavior of business customers. You’ll see that understanding buyer behavior is an essential but very difficult task. To get a better sense of the importance of understanding consumer behavior, we begin by looking at GoPro. You may never have heard of GoPro, the small but fast-growing company that makes tiny, wearable HD video cameras. Yet few brands can match the avid enthusiasm and intense loyalty that GoPro has created in the hearts and minds of its customers. GoPro knows that, deep down, it offers customers much more than just durable little video cameras. More than that, it gives them a way to share action-charged moments and emotions with friends...
