competitors are Flashdial cyber, Kagz cyber and Itec cyber. All the cyber are located in the
next building across the street.

customers about the existence of Kenn Frynkin Hood Cyber Cafe cyber. They will also
provide price comparison and standardization. This will also enable product to be made
available that the competitors don’t have.

IV. ADVERTISING AND PROMOTION
STRATEGY Advertising strategy

The business will use posters, blogging, email and the internet. This will be cheaper and more
effective since the business is concerned with the internet and creating publications. Other
modes of advertising will include word of mouth and calendars offered to potential customers
when they buy goods.

Advertising will cost about Kshs5000 in total per month, but this will not be done every
month of the year.

Advertising will be very efficient to the business and will contribute to the business growth
for about 60%.

Promotion strategy

The business will offer discount on goods bought in large amounts and those that are of high
prices. It will also offer after sale services like packaging of goods bought by customers and
advise them on how to operate/use them.

The business will also have an IT assistant who will assist the customers on how to operate
and use the internet for free. After free consultation services will be offered to the customers
who wish to know about the business and other products that are not stocked by Kenn
Frynkin Hood Cyber Cafe cyber.

Kenn Frynkin Hood Cyber Cafe cyber café will use free introductory service like free
customer information awareness where the customers will be told about the products being
offered free of charge and services available.

Since promotional activities will be free this will be effective (55%) so it will attract more
customers to come to the business to know more about it i.e. products and services offered. It
will cost Kshs10000 every month.

15
V. PRICE STRATEGY
The business merchandise prices will be variable depending on other competitors, buying
price and the country's economic status. Thus the business will ensure low prices compared to
competitors to create/attract more customers taking into consideration the buying price and
expenses incurred during transportation to make sure for profitable returns. Selling price-
(buying price) - expenses.

The pricing will be influenced by the following factors:

a) Competition analysis: The business will have a fixed price tag depending on the
competitors' price. It will have to vary its price tag so as to lower than that of the
competitors' considering buying and expenses to ensure for profits,
b) Economic conditions: The country's economic status will contribute directly to the
price of goods at the Kenn Frynkin Hood Cyber Cafe cyber café. If the economy and
living standards of people is good the business will adjust its prices intelligently
otherwise it will have to operate at affordable prices.
c) Discount and profit margins: Discounts will be offered to wholesale and large scale
buyers but making sure that the basic output i.e. profit is realized per each single
commodity sold which is the main aim of starting the business.
d) After-sales services: After sale services will be free of charge to attract more
customers hence more profit.

16
VI. SALES TACTICS
For the business that has competitors to survive and cope with entry and growth, it tends to
employ the following sale tactics;

a) Direct selling: The potential customers will come to the business enterprise, see
the goods, inquire about them if they are satisfied and want them, and then
transaction will be made.
b) Indirect selling: This will include the use of posters and calendars displaying the
business name i.e. Sic cyber café, the goods and services offered and their prices.

Selling directly to customers will be the best tactic since customers will be the ones coming
to the business premises and inquiring about the products and services. The sales force won't
be required so much in this case since it will just require one person who is the operator of
the business who will be selling to the customers. He will be recommended by getting a good
amount of safety in line with his experience and the kind of job done.

17
VII. DISTRIBUTION STRATEGY
The business intends to use distributions to distribute/deliver products to the customers. It
will have to buy a Motorcycle to distributor. The business will ensure persistent maintenance
of the car to avoid breakdowns and paying of the deliver/distributor so they can be motivated
well enough to continue with the business well. This will cost the business around Kshs15000
per month and will be problematic due to maintenance costs to the car and paying of the
distributor.
