Brand tagline: if you like it, you can shoe me. BUSINESS MODEL SHOEME is a trendy footwear brand which uses a business model of D2C and does not believe in the concept of middlemen which would help to cut down expenses and will give us room for creating the best product and help improve the product quality a lot. Making products directly available for the consumers will help us build that crucial emotional relationship and also help the consumers in building belief towards the company and the product. Choosing the D2C business model also would help us in reaching out consumers complaints faster and in a very effective manner. BUSINESS AND MARKETING PLAN When we talk about marketing, the major aspect which would make it successful is the USP. In our company, we offer a platform to consumers where they can customize their shoes as per their preferences. The customers are allowed to choose their own material, colour combination, design, sales etc. they can avail this service at our official website or they can even visit one of our stores or also can avail call services to order their product. Our products are initially made available in cities like, Bangalore, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Chennai and Hyderabad. We are looking forward to open multiple stores in other parts of the company too which would depend on the product’s performance. We have also spent on influences endorsement which include social media stars like Danish sait, tanmay bhat, bhuvan bam. There has also been callaborations with regional stars such as yash, vijay, allu Arjun etc. Our major callabs were with IPL franchises such as RCB and CSK which helps us to tap a major part of the market. FINANCIAL PLAN As you know that we offer consumers with services that can help them customize their footwear. So as this reason we need to have a large amount of inventory to meet consumer needs which also brought a challenge for us to raise a very large investment. But we were able to meet our financial needs with the help of angel investors and financial institutions. Till date we have diluted 25 of equity capital for 72cr and availed loan of 118cr from hdfc bank at a percentage of 9.8% p.a. From the previous financial year of 2022-2023 we have made a sales of 65cr which is divided such as 20% net margin, 30% gross margin. The growth rate of Shoeme has been very successful and is growing by 38% every year. We will also be looking forward to dilute more of our company equity to raise investments either in the form of angel investors or IPO’s.
