Enterprise and Product / Service Description

 Provide an overview of your business idea and a detailed description of your product or service.
Explain what inspired you to choose this line of business.

MOLA is the acronym of Mobile Light Accessory and it is an accessory for phones that enables you to
carry a cable built in a case, so you don’t struggle carrying two things to get you phone charged. It is
directed for people that are always busy or that a very productive life, so they don’t struggle with this
problem. It was mainly inspired by the whole team since we are all users and we are always looking how
to make human life easier.

• Explain in what way is your business concept innovative, and what innovative features your product
or service offer.

The business is innovative because as the world is constantly developing it tends to make things more
and more complicated, but the main goal of our product is to make thigs easier for the end user, and we
achieve this goal by making out product as simple and easy to use as possible. We have not encountered
a product that has the same characteristics. We add a USB cable into a conventional case, with the
advantages of carrying around a USB cable and having protection for your phone.

• Describe what market needs and customer expectations your product or service will be fulfilling. –
COTE

• Customer expectations

The market needs a product that makes it easier to keep their phone charged at all times. Conventional
battery backup needs to charge, so it adds an extra step, we as the product developer try to make thigs
simpler and useful, by just making a phone case with a small charging USB cable. Some of the
requirements of the customers are described above and how will they be fulfilled.

A good performance does not break, that is ensured through the overall thinness of the case, that is no
less than 2mm.

The good flexibility in order to get in and out the cable in a safe way, and this is ensured through the
correct selection of the material that will be used, flexible polystyrene resin.

The cable should be easy enough to grab, and this is ensured through an additional cavity and a string to
pull it easily.

To be in different presentations and is easy accomplished because we can paint the resin very easily
with different colors and patterns.

The case proving a well-tested cable to charge their phones.

5 Marketing and Sales Plan


• Describe your potential market and list the important features that make your product or service
worth having (design, functionality, reliability, usability, other). – COTE

Our potential market is female users around 35-40 years old, high educated, full time job, have an above
average income and like to have prestige through brands.

Some of the points that are to be consider in the design of the product are the following:

 The product design has to me as simple as possible, jet stylish. It will come in different colors
 The design measure should not be less of the measures of the iPhone X.
 The case should have wide opening for the usage of the buttons.
 The cavity for the USB cable should be the smallest possible to make sure it does not give up
portability.
 The case should not cover the touch display.
 The case should not break (overall thickness no less than 2mm.)
 The case should be har but flexible enough (polystyrene resin.)
 The cable cavity should be not too loose or too tight.
 A well-tested cable.
7 Financial Analysis / Schedule

• Provide a summary of the key financial components and indicators and show the viability of the
Business Plan (breakeven point, NPV, TIR, etc.). – COTE

For the analysis of the viability of the project we first made some calculations on the expenses that will
occurring for the installation of the project, and of the firsts months, these are presented below.
Estimated

Other expenses 2000
$ 219,100.00 $ 142,000.00
Unit cost $ 88.75
Price $ 250.00

As we can see the main monthly expense will be those that are needed directly as a raw material for the
product.

First, we projected the sales of the cases according to another selling cases company report of when
they were starting. Then we research the risk percentage of the sector that we are trying to reach which
was 11%, along with the average inflation, the desire investment recovery and the wanted earnings, all
of this to make up the minimum expected rate of return which gave us 47.18 %. Then we perform the
analysis of the Net Present Value and Internal Rate of Return without taxes.

The Net Present value gave us 317K Mexican pesos in the duration of 12 periods, which is a good
indicator that tell us that at the end of the first year the money that it is equivalent today is 317K. We
can also see that the Internal Rate of Return is 125.7%, almost 80% more than the Minimum expected
rate of return which tell us that the business is viable.

Then we did again all the calculations but now with taxes, to see how it behaves, but first we must
calculate the depreciation of the equipment. After that we repeated the same calculations and we got
an NPV of 118K and IRR of 87% which tell us the business viable because the IRR is greater that the
MERR.
