BANDHAN

Executive Summary

Bandhan is a B2C (business to consumer) organization.The word “Bandhan” is

considered as a Bengali word which actually means creating bonds between people
or nature. Bandhan is a tour and -travel agency service associated with E commerce
and many other organizations to provide a comfortable and friendly environment
for the customers. Ever since COVID-19, online platforms and transactions online
have become the new normal and so using this opportunity of technological
enhancement we mostly rely on online based services as it is convenient, easy to
use, time saving and preferable for our customers. Our main goal is to provide
transportation tickets, hotel bookings and organising tours through our app and
website. Although this business is a commission based business, it is still our top
priority to make the booking process and tours much easier by keeping prices
reasonable and fair while also ensuring quality services and safety measures
included.

Bandhan is going to be a general partnership based business where every partner

will have equal ownership of the business. That means they will have equal liabilities
and profits among themselves. The partners are going to be responsible for all
kinds of profits and losses the company makes. Any kind of futuristic decision made
by the CEO will need votes to execute such a decision where all the other partners
will have to vote and decide whether to support or not.

Bandhan has teamed up with airlines like US Bangla airlines, Nova air and Regent
Airways. For the bus tickets we have teamed up with Hanif Enterprises, Desh Travels
limited, Shyamali Enterprises etc. For hotel room and services we have made deals
with the maximum range of hotels to create as many options we can for our clients
to choose from. We will also make contacts with these organisations by setting a
certain percentage of commission through negotiations with them.

At the time of Covid-19, the E-commerce industry of Bangladesh started rising

rapidly as the Covid situation was getting under control, the people have started
travelling for different purposes. Bandhan is here to make this process much easier
and safer. Bandhan will be a one stop shop for the booking and two services
customers can book hotels, airs or bus tickets through one app. Many clients
become victims of scams while booking from a website. but Bandhan is one true
authentic online service associated with other trusted organizations, so there will be
no chances for scam. In order to become reliable and provide trustworthy

BANDHAN

services to the customer we will maintain our commission rate ratio and quality
services up to the standards.

Our marketing strategy is mostly based on social media, because that’s the best way
to attract our target market, the younger generations. We will be actively promoting
our service through our official pages and our app. We will be incredible in
promotions because of our head of marketing’s background as a well-known
content creator. He would help immensely in getting our name out to the masses
even before our launch. We will also have special discounts and even give away. We
are going to collaborate with celebrities which would be very effective among the
younger generations. We will also be promoting ourselves in educational
institutions, apart from social media this is another major way of getting the
attention of our target market. We plan on covering every school in our adjacent
areas. Our entire marketing plan and pricing strategy is given in detail later in this
business plan.

Our marketing strategy mainly focuses on social media as our app is mostly
targeted towards the younger generation. Our organization will be promoted
through our official page, website and app. By creating unique contents by our
content creator, we can capture the attention of young individuals through aesthetic
shots and videos and this would aid immensely in making our brand well known to
everyone before our launch. Other marketing techniques that can be implemented
is by giving out discounts, holiday packages,giveaways or even collaborating with an
influencer or vlogger that advertises our tours. Apart from these, another way is to
advertise directly in our target market which is by advertising in educational
institutions through stalls and flyers. Our entire marketing plan and pricing strategy
is given in detail later in this business plan.

The estimated financial amount required to start the journey of the Bandhan is BDT
120,00,000 (1.2 Crore) initially. The company’s initial partners will invest 12,00,000
Taka from their savings and personal loans, which sums to BDT 48,00,000 (48 lac).
The remaining 72,00,000 Taka of the investment required is to be collected from our
valued investors by claiming 60% of total share on the first year of launching.
According to estimations, our breakeven point is going to hit in the 2 nd year. Our
financial plan as well is given in detail later in this business plan.

Our long term plan is to let people, especially the young generation, enjoy the
naturistic views and experience the history of the places as well as meet diversity of
people around the world. It will help them in educating themselves and appreciate
the beauty of nature.

BANDHAN

Company Background
Business type: Product and services.

Main Business Operation:

In today's world, tourism and the travel industry has sped ahead with promising
businesses all over the world. It can be seen in Bangladesh also, tour and travel
agents are booming right now. Although Bangladesh is an overpopulated country,
the people of our country do like to travel a lot. Hence, through the use of
Bangladeshi people's love for travel, we have a great opportunity to steer our way to
success.
Basically, our business will be a service based business which will provide certain
services for an adequate amount of profit. We will be providing 4 types of services
and these are:
-Booking air tickets through apps/website.( Domestic flights)
-Hotel bookings through app/ website. (Most scenic tourist spots in the country)
-Bus tickets. (To travel from district to district)
-Organising or customizing tours through app/website.

Mission and vision statement

Mission:
As mentioned earlier, Bangladesh is a highly populated country and not to mention
the security for transportation is not very reliable and safe especially when
considering young teenagers or adults going on trips or tours. Therefore, due to a
lot of traffic in the streets as well as poor security for women and young individuals,
it ceases the urge for people to travel. However, our app and website Bandhan
makes things easy for the people who want to book hotels, air tickets and bus
tickets as well as providing the proper security and safety that most people need.
The app and website system is so easy and efficient for any individual to handle and
so they can provide themselves with any of these services by just creating an
account on our app and website. Our main objective is to satisfy the people with our
exceptional services who are willing to pay us with their time and money.

There are other features that make it easier for the people to use the app, that is
they don’t have to be physically present to purchase their tickets and confirm their
bookings as with ”Bandhan” they can confirm their bookings in just a few seconds
online.

BANDHAN
But obviously, there are other agencies so why would they choose “Bandhan”?

Because “Bandhan” provides lucrative offers, lowest airfares, exclusive discounts

and seamless online booking experiences with genuine information. But this is just
the beginning, it also has other great features like being able to compare fares with
the same standards, getting fair calendar discount vouchers, family packages,
couple romantic tours, student offers and many more. We can also organise tours
occasionally on the customers demand by customizing the tour in their preferences
while also providing them with essential safety kit materials such as first-aid kits,
tents, sleeping bags, disposable bags, cups and plates etc. We also provide a guide
for safety rules and our emergency ambulance numbers to ensure that they are
prepared in case they fall into an accident. In short, we are teaming up with more
than enough organisations to ensure appropriate safety, good food, comfortable
buses, hotels as well as providing more choosing options for customers as well.

Vision:
Currently, we have decided to launch our service only localised to a few of the
largest and popular tourist spot districts of our country. However, we plan to
expand it to all the districts of Bangladesh and eventually want to add more
features to further enhance our vision and goals as well as gaining more new
customers. As mentioned earlier, in our first years of service we are going to target
the most desired tourism places according to our survey. Our headquarter is
situated in Dhaka. We are going to 2 more branch offices in Chittagong and Sylhet.
Later, we will be opening 3 branches which includes Khulna, Barisal and Cox’s Bazar.
Finally, Our main goal is to turn our business into a world class international travel
agency.

In first 2 years of our launch:

● Tourist places like Cox’s Bazar,Sylhet, Kuakata, Chottogram, Sajek and Saint
martin etc will be available for bookings, as these are the most visited places
according to the online surveys.
● Bus services will be available for 64 districts.
● We will set up another branch office in Rangpur city.
● Air routes in the first two years will only be in Dhaka, Sylhet, Cox’s Bazar,
 Chottogram, Rajshahi.
● We will provide a customer review portal for our customers to review and
improve our services.
● We will also invest in infrastructural development like providing servers, bus
stops for washroom breaks and mini food stalls or restaurants around the

BANDHAN

bus stop so that the customers can have their lunch or dinner at that
location.
● Hire more employees to keep the quality of service higher against our rising
demand.

In the 3rd and 4th year:

● We will expand our hotel services in other districts as well.
● We will expand our air travel services to the remaining places that are left out,
like Jassore and Barisal.
● We will build more contracts with different and trusted bus transportation
enterprises.
● We will expand our app and website with more features like fast phasing,
donation etc.

After the 5th year of launching:

● We will expand our business further with more investments and ensure offices
of Bandhan are present in every district.
● After gaining enough profit within this time, we will enable global services and
allow tourists to book tours in our country through the Bandhan app. ● We will
try to expand our company to all over Asia and then all over the world to use this
app for tours in their country while also providing versatile languages for the
different countries.
● We will crack more deals for sponsorship with foreign countries to strengthen
and expand this business even further.

Product and Service Description

Product and service description

Technology is quickly moving to provide platforms which may open more avenues
for providing quick, expedient travel service.Traditional travel agency services often
involve delays in booking tickets. Now, imagine being able to do all these in your
electronic devices using just an app and the Internet connection. Bandhan is a
comprehensive travel agency service. Users can get on-demand hotel, bus, flight
booking by downloading a free mobile app. We provide:

Transportation ticket – an individual or group of people can only think of planning a

tour when there will be transportation access whether it is by air or by road so that
they can reach their destination. Thus, we have signed contracts with well known
companies as customers want to travel by plane, we have agreements with US
airlines, Nova airlines and US Bangla Airlines. Although the customers want to travel
by road, they can only think of well-maintained prestigious bus companies like
Green Line, Hanif and Shohagh, hence we also have a deal with them. So that our
customers can enjoy a good deal and have a relaxed journey.

14

BANDHAN

Hotel booking – going out on a trip without staying is not worth it. We value and
prioritize our customers' privacy and a safe environment where they can have their
own time. We have signed an agreement with different hotels or motels in different
places in this country. In Cox’s Bazar we have an agreement with Ocean Paradise,
Western Heritage, Royal Tulip and many more.
Organizing a tour – Bandhan will create plans especially depending on the demand
of the weather and consumers but other than that we will find out unique places
and give the customers an opportunity to spectate that place.
From the beginning to the end, we will provide in depth details of the location, hotel
and food. But our responsibility doesn’t end here, we will also be providing a travel
guide so that he can help with all travel related needs and wants like medical
assistant and exploring places. But if the customer is not willing to have a tour
guide, they won’t receive any benefit so this is why we kept it optional.

Marketing Plan
Market research
It has been observed through numerous surveys that students really wish to go on
tours with their friends but are usually unable to do so due to unfriendly budget
prices as well as improper security in this country. Therefore, Bandhan ensures that
it provides budget friendly offers for students as well as proper security for students
by collaborating with safe and trusted companies.

Nowadays, social media has gotten so incorporated in the young generation’s lives
that, and so when influencers travel to tours, young students also wish to go on
such tours which proves that the demand for student friendly tours is very high.

Marketing mix
Product
Our product is providing services to the customer as it is a B2C business. Bandhan
is a third-party organization, so we have contracts with different well-known
companies.

Price

18
 BANDHAN

Bandhan is a commission-based business organization so most of our profit is

going to be generated through the percentage of commission the hotel and
transportation companies agreed to pay. Our services will be less than the rates
customers used to pay. We will be holding charges for the touring guide as we kept
it optional and our cancellation fees.

Place
The Headquarters of Bandhan will be located in Dhaka initially and gradually once
we start to increase revenue along with demand we will be setting up our branches
in Chittagong and Sylhet. As a long term plan, we will have branches nationally.
Consumers do not need to come to our office for payment, as the payment
methods will be online payment. As we will have contacts with the companies, we
will contact them by phone call as mentioned the payment will be online.

Promotion
As Bandhan is mostly targeted to the students, we will be offering student discounts
by showing valid proof everytime they book using our app. Other than that, the first
25 customers will be recieving 10-20% discounts as a startup discount. Customers
will also gain points as we will be setting a limit that, if the customer reaches a
certain point, they will receive a discount voucher or merchandise.

Marketing strategy
Segmentation
● Demographic: Users need to be above 18 to register to our app and show their
passport or their national ID card for verification.
● Geographic: We will start off by providing our services for users in the 3 big
cities Dhaka, Chittagong and Sylhet. Gradually our service will be expanded
throughout all 64 districts, for example bandarban, khagrachari etc. Our long-
term goal is that we will provide our service throughout the country.
● Product related: Our service will be approved by the government so we will
assure the user of the app that we will provide the best services and
products. Also, customer can rate our services and can send feedback so that
later people can check the app users experience.

Target market
For this field, we will be mainly targeting the students as demand. This app is also
open for adults of different professions, as they also want to go out for trips.
 19

BANDHAN

Pricing strategy
Using the services provided by Bandhan, we tried to keep the prices as low as we
could, to attract as many customers as possible, while making decent revenue
without any loss at the beginning.

Bandhan is a commission based business, so we won’t be having the power to

control as the price is formed by the process of “laissez-faire”, which basically
means price formed through the philosophy of free market, as the government
does not interfere in the pricing. Thus, the prices that were set through the process
of free market in the companies will remain the same. But the contract will include
a special discount for our customers. Also Bandhan will get a small percentage of
commission from the sale. We will be holding charges for the cancellation fee as
another way of generating revenue.

Bandhan will also implement a strategy to ensure that all the discount offers,
promotional prices, holiday packages of all the companies that Bandhan had
formed a contract with, may it be discount in hotel rooms, or discount in bus fares,
they will all be shown in the Bandhan app through promotional banners from those
companies that are offering such deals. Therefore, this strategy is efficient for the
customers as they can see all the offers and discounts of all the companies in one
place, that is the Bandhan app.

Bandhan will also frequently advertise and promote the companies that pay a
higher commission, as higher commissions benefit Bandhan. In other words, the
other companies will be willing to pay a higher commission to ensure their
companies get promoted frequently as well. Basically this tactic would act as an
incentive for the other companies to pay a higher commission to Bandhan which is
advantageous to Bandhan.

Promotional strategy:
We are focusing on 3 promotional strategies-
● Social media advertisement through our official page: Prior to officially
launching our business we will promote our soon to be launched Bandhan by
posting several videos of our tours through creative videography by drones
as well as interviewing a number of customers who share their experience
 using our Bandhan app. On top of these, our marketing head will post
creative contents to promote future discount offers and packages ensuring
that there are regular customer interactions and the page is active.

20

BANDHAN

● Collaborating with influencers: Paying influencers to use our app and

advertising the whole tour by vlogging and sharing their personal experiences
on what all they particularly liked and enjoyed. This will allow the app to be
spread more widely to young individuals as they always keep up to date with
influencer’s lives.
● Promotion in educational institutions: Our aim is to target the younger
generation as this app solely focuses on students by providing numerous
discount offers. Therefore, an efficient method to promote the app to the
younger generation is by advertising it in educational institutions through
fairs or events, where there would be stalls, banners, leaflets as well as sales
representatives who explain to the students on how the whole tour is moved
forward and the budget that is required.

BANDHAN
 Conclusion

E-commerce has already made an important contribution to our country’s

economy. As globalisation is a global phenomenon, e-commerce is growing quite
faster. Scope for the travel and tourism industry as well as consumers have
improved themselves with the advent of e-commerce technology. Now the
consumer has an enormous amount of information at their fingertips. After the
covid-19 situation people are getting more into online based platforms as it is time
saving and involves less hassle.

Keeping the current situation in mind, we are targeting e-commerce services to

avoid public gatherings while going to the station and booking tickets or transports.
This system will abide by the social distancing rule and will minimize the risk. Now
anyone can book a bus and plane ticket to hotel services just by one click.
Bangladesh is a country of diversity, where most of the beauty has not been
unraveled. Because the tourism sector is not as strong as it should be to attract
potential customers and gain recognition. Bangladesh has very few travel agencies.
It is a small approach of ours to make the tourism sector richer by offering various
services in one place. Our service would kind of act like one stop shop or service.
