Description of Venture
Business Description
Synergy is a consumer based company that has been established
considering the vast market that exists in Pakistan for home care chemical
products. The focus of this company is the provision of quality and
affordable products, within arms reach, to its end users. The company will
focus on a multi-dimensional approach where our products will be made
available to end users (consumers) and also to other companies
(customers).
Following this B2C and B2B strategy simultaneously will allow for
quick returns. Considering the lack of sufficient data on demand trends
from private retail store for phenyl balls, it will be in the companys best
interest to keep a broad market focus; targeting consumers and
businesses alike.
The initial reach of our companys product will be limited to a few
selected areas in Lahore City. However, in the long run as the company
will establish and develop, further expansions into new towns and
societies, and even bordering cities, will be considered to increase the
companys profitability and market.
Should our company decide to engage in B2B dealings, bank loans
will then be considered as a source for financial support for bringing
operations at par with the partnering companys demand orders.

Mission Statement
Synergy aims to provide the best sanitary products within arms reach,
at competitive prices

Strategic Goals
Conveying our mission statement in our marketing campaign is
crucial for our brand image and reputation and our marketing mix will
embody this statement.
Financial Goals
6 | Page
COMSATS Institute of Information Technology
Management Sciences Department

Entrepreneurship MGT- 430


Business Plan, 2014

Obtain financing to expand manufacturing capabilities, increase


distribution, and introduce new product lines such as liquid phenyl
products when business starts giving considerable returns.
To generate and increase revenue as per expectations of the
business plan.

Non-financial Goals

Enter new geographic markets outside Lahore.


Establish strong brand image and communication channels.

Product(s)
Initially, the product offering will primarily comprise of packaged and
branded phenyl balls. With time and experience, we will consider
expanding our product line by also including phenyl floor cleaning
chemicals as well.

Size of Business
For the first six months, the size of the business will be small. All the
operations will be managed and undertaken by the four partners. No
additional labor will be employed in the initial phases of the business. The
total projected productions required for the first three months will be
1,600 pouches of phenyl balls, each weighing 200 grams.
After the first six months, the projected sales is expected to increase
to higher levels, and to cope with this increase, the business will hire
additional labor. Distribution, procurement, and packaging will then be
completed by the additional labor.
Once the sales volume rises sufficiently high, Synergy will outsource
the distribution function to third party specialists. The loss of profit due to
outsourcing distribution will be offset by the increased sales volumes
which will only be possible if we employ large scale distribution.

Office Equipment and Personnel


Following will be the office equipment requirements:

Sealing machine (Quantity: 1)


Gloves (2 pairs)
Weighing machine (Quantity: 1)
Face masks (Quantity: 4)
No additional personnel required for initial stages (4 partners only)

Business Plan, 2014

Background of Entrepreneurs
The four entrepreneurs do not yet have any real hands on
experience of the real world market. However, each partner is skilled in
mutually exclusive specialized areas of business administration. According
to their skills, the partners have distributed the various tasks among
themselves.

Marketing Plan
Defining the Target Market

Opportunities

The target market of our product is both household consumers and


business customers such as small hotels and restaurants etc. in the
Lahore region.
One of our opportunities is the relatively small number of
competitive brands in this product category which will ease our
entrance into the market.
Once such a link gets established, opportunity exists for becoming
appealing to and, inevitably, supplying to larger business customers
with larger demand as well.
Expanding our target market beyond Lahore region after successful
establishment in Lahore area.
Directly target hospitals, clinics, restaurants and hotels etc.

Threats

Unstable economic environment.


Low demand.
Much older and well-established competitors.
Rising cost of petrol. Hence increase in transport expense.
Change in consumer trend can sap the demand of our product.
Lower purchase than anticipated in category C retail stores.

8 | Page
COMSATS Institute of Information Technology
Management Sciences Department

Entrepreneurship MGT- 430


Business Plan, 2014

Strengths

Few brands are competing in this product category.


The experience gained in launching our product in current
geographical area will help us expand into other cities as well
with a better placement strategy.
Bringing the product within arms of our consumers.
The product is undifferentiated so the difference in product
pricing will not be far apart, thus providing us equal opportunity
to capture market.

Weaknesses

The limited distribution channel by using rented vehicle or


personal commute.
Limited availability of finance such as growth prospects.
Lack of experience and seasoning to operate in market.
Initial inability to target large scale whole sellers (e.g. Hyperstar)
Inability to gain good face value of brand over the period of time,
unable to retain the retailers due to unpredictability of market
demand or low demand. Also,
The
market
already
has
some
well-established
key
players/movers (e.g. Benz chemicals), who have linkages with
existing businesses.

Marketing Mix
Product Strategy
Our aim is to provide finished quality phenyl ball products at
competitive prices and good import quality material. The product will be in
the form of 200gm or 400gm plastic pouches with our brand logo on it.
Promotion Strategy
Our primary marketing objective is to establish a brand image and
secure retailers for first time entry into the market. In order to achieve this
objective, following courses of action regarding promotions can be taken

Make Brochures and Leaflets and distribute them to retail customers


in our geographical market (In Lahore i.e. Iqbal Town, Awan Town,
Samnabad, Nawab Town, Johar town etc.) to increase our brand
awareness.

9 | Page
COMSATS Institute of Information Technology
Management Sciences Department

Entrepreneurship MGT- 430


Business Plan, 2014

Raise awareness and establish a communication platform via


Internet e.g. Facebook Page and E-mail. Also by making E-mail
catalogues for business customers.
Word of mouth, that is, spread the word personally about our brand.
Direct sales pitch to companies manufacturing phenyl balls and
persuade them that outsourcing this line of operations of the
company will reduce their costs significantly.(Considered as a
secondary marketing objective)
If the budget allows, probably make a small advertisement on local
cable provider channels such as gulf cable providers in Awan town
and Iqbal town region etc. The advertisements there are relatively
cost effective and economical.

Distribution Strategy
Since we are operating locally and the end product is light (125
packets of 200gm totaling 25kg), takes low volume, our end users are
concentrated (direct) in the market. We could distribute the packaged
goods with a small van on rent or via personal commute to further reduce
cost thus using one distribution channel to retailers for one or multiple
geographical market areas. In the beginning we could supply our product
to local general stores categorized as B stores and smaller anonymous
local shops categorized as C class stores.

Pricing Strategy
Suggested retail price for phenyl balls 200g pack will be Rs.80.
Retailers will be offered 10% margin which will be equivalent to Rs.8 per
200g pack.
Our aim is to offer highly competitive prices but not so low that it
implies a poor quality product, as we are just starting. We shall try to keep
our margin minimal as our primary focus right now is to build brand repute
and awareness by persuading people to buy our product and sales pitch.
Our product comes under the non-differentiated category where little
room for price variation is available and can be done so only either by
reducing our margins or our cost of production. We can offer discounts at
big orders. When we raise substantial brand awareness and a position by
proving the quality of our product in the market we can then raise our
prices accordingly.

Control and Review Procedures


In order to measure our performance some review procedures are
required to compare our progress vs. our plan. We can do periodic visits,
say once a week, to retailers in our allocated vicinities to get feedback
regarding our product sales and general product perception. Also new
consumption trends of end consumers if any, thereby reevaluating and restructuring are marketing activities accordingly.

Organizational Plan
Legal Structure
The legal structure of Synergy will be that of a partnership governed
under the partnership act, 1932 of Pakistan.
A partnership structure incurs limited establishment and registration
costs, has comparatively a smaller tax percentage to pay than a limited
company, the responsibilities can be better divided among partners;
reducing the burden of running an entire company from a single person.
Since each individual is an expert in his/her area of operations the
decision made will be quick and effective. Finally, a partnership has more
sources of capital where each partner contribute to the companys

Business Plan, 2014

The duties and responsibilities of each member are interlinked with one
another. Ever decision regarding operations, productions and marketing
will need to be coordinated with the finance manager. Similarly the
production department will have to coordinate its production plans with
the marketing department, making cohesive plans on areas of interest in
Pakistan, where our product must reach the customers.
Director organization will be responsible for managing and coordinating
work activates among all departments. Also overlooking tax payments
and making sure each member performs his/her responsibilities and
receives rewards and bonuses accordingly.

Operational Strategy
Synergys aim will be the provision of quality packaged phenyl balls
to the local consumer market. The goal is to target retail store categorized
as A, B and C ensuring the easy availability of our product.
The operations during the introductory stage of our business will be
limited in terms of production capacity, distribution and reach. The focus
for initiating our business will be primarily on category A retail stores
with a secondary emphasis on category B retail stores. This will be done
to ensure that our product is delivered on cash bases, rather than on
credit terms. This will ensure timely recover of costs and minimize risks,
which for a new business is crucial. The procurement, packaging and
delivery will take place via personal transport means provided by
partners. No additional labor will be hire in the initial 6 month period of
operations.
Category B store will be secondary preference, since their small
operational capacity and limited revenue pool will restrict any on cash
transactions from being accepted. However, by implementing the
following strategy, we can increase on cash transactions with category B
stores. The strategy will be to offer an increase in the retailers margin,
there by giving them an added incentive to enter into an agreement. The
normal margin, which is 10%, will be increased to an incentivized 13% in
return for cash transaction.

Expansion Strategy

15 | P a g e
COMSATS Institute of Information Technology
Management Sciences Department

Entrepreneurship MGT- 430


Business Plan, 2014

The expansion strategy for Synergy will be defined in 4 steps and will
be for the next 5-8 years:
1. The first step will be expanding our customer base from just
targeting retail stores to bring our product to hospitals, restaurants
and hotels.
2. The initial delivery requirement will be managed via personal
transport means and the occasional use of for-hire transport
vehicles. With the implementation of the first step procurement,
production and delivery requirements will increase, thus requiring
the hiring of additional labor force as well.
3. The third step will be expanding our operations to bordering cities.
This in turn will require outsourcing distribution to third part
specialists. Here distribution channels will be established. The loss in
profits due to outsourcing distribution (incentives to distributors) will
be off-set by the increase in unit sales by virtue of increase reach of
our product.
4. The final step will be becoming our own distributors and introducing
similar product lines.

Exit Strategy
The Partnership Agreement for Synergy will clearly state the procedure
for wrapping up the business. Should the business fail to continue
profitably, the following steps will be follows as guideline:
1. All company owned assets; raw material, finished goods, equipment
and other assets will be disposed of.
2. The resulting returns will be used to pay back debts and due owed
by the company.
3. Finally, in the event of any remaining capital, the sum will be
distributed between all legal partners equally.
The whole wrap-up procedure will be carried out and supervised by the
Manager Organization-Ahmad Mehmood.

Operational Plan
Location
Synergy is based in Lahore, Pakistan. The exact location from where
the operations would be based at is 193 E Block, Nawab Town, Lahore
(personal residence). The operations would commence from January 2014.

Procurement
Synergy is going to be procuring the phenyl balls from Akbari Mandi
which is a famous old hub for the raw materials near the Landa Bazaar
based in Lahore. To meet the projected sales for the first month of January
i.e 300 phenyl bags we need to purchase phenyl balls worth of Rs. 9000 in
January by purchasing 3 bags of raw material, 25 kg each. See table below
for the Feb and March.

The means to transport the raw material from Akbari Mandi to


desired location would include two suitable options. One means is to use
the personal transport that is the use of motorbikes this would be cost
effective. On the other hand Synergy could use the services of a local
transporter if required.

Business Plan, 2014

Retailers
The retailers that Synergy has identified are broadly divided in three
categories A, B and C.

Category A includes big stores like Alfatah and Jalal Sons.


Category B includes medium sized stores that are popular in
different societies for instance Al-Buraq in Samanabad Society, AlHamd in Nawab Town, Bhai Bhai Medical and General Store in Awan
Town and Rainbow Centre in Wapda Town.
Category C stores are the smaller anonymous stores located across
societies for the convenient availability of products for daily use.

Category B and C will require the product in 200 gm packets, delivery


of these packets is easier via motorbikes and hence helps reduce the
transport cost.
Category A will require the product in cartons (carton capacity 96 units
200 gm packets) hence for the transportation of these cartons proper
transport facilities need to be availed.

Equipment
The equipment that is required for the packaging and sealing of
these phenyl balls is a sealing machine, this sealing machine would cost
around Rs. 1500. Apart from this a weighing machine which costs Rs.
1200 is required. Also two sets of gloves that cost Rs. 50 each and masks
at Rs. 10 each are to be purchased.

Labor
Synergy does not require any technical skills in the packaging of the
phenyl balls hence any technical labor is not required for the business.
Synergy will procure, package and deliver the product on its own.

Raw material has to be purchased and then transported to the

and packaged.
300 units is the production goal for the first month i.e. January.
The weight of these 300 packets would be 60kg.

Labeling
Phenyl balls that have been packaged need to be labeled now. For
the purpose of labeling stickers of the product namely Hygen are to be
purchased the price of this sticker is @ Rs. 1.5 / sticker. Hence a total of
Rs. 2250 would be invested to label the 1500 packets for the term of first
three months because the minimum order quantity for the stickers is
1000.

Inventory
19 | P a g e
COMSATS Institute of Information Technology

Business Plan, 2014

The inventory will be managed by storing the packaged phenyl balls


in cartons. For Januarys purpose the 300 packets will be stored in 3
cartons which will be placed temporarily at personal residence (read:
financial plan).
Quality Assurance
Quantity:
This explains if the said quantity is being delivered i.e whether or
not a packet weighs 200gms.
Quality:
Since our product is not differentiated from other similar products;
maintenance and reliability of quality is difficult to achieve and of
secondary importance. However we will ensure that the packaged
balls are not crushed or cracked.
Waste Management:
We need to ensure that the waste material is stored and once it
reaches a certain amount of level we can sell if off. The waste
majorly would include powdered or crushed phenyl balls.

Generation of Funds
Two avenues exist for generating additional funds. One route is to
opt for a personal loan, such as the Youth Loan Schemes being introduced
by the government of Pakistan. The proposed amount of said loan is Rs. 1
million, with a payback of 7 years along with 1 year grace period. This
loan scheme will be very beneficial for our business venture as its terms
are friendly.
The second avenue is to add another business partner, who will
contribute an estimated capital of Rs. 25,000.
