Description: (URL removed) is a web based company, structured to penetrate the market in the business of helping consumers find chauffeured limousine and charter transportation to and from any domestic airport in the Continental United States; it will also provide transportation companies additional exposure through avenues they may not have had the opportunity to do so before. Anthony J. Lovett recognizes this opportunity in Indianapolis, Indiana, to open and operate a successful online Internet web site, which will provide direct access to a comprehensive database of limousine and charter companies. This company will develop a website that will serve two purposes. The first purpose is to provide a user friendly portal for consumers who are seeking companies that are able to provide chauffeured transportation at airports throughout the USA. (URL removed) will sign up limousine & charter companies who provide the following chauffeured services: • Limousine • Sedan • Van • SUV • Stretch SUV • Super Stretch Limousines • Mini Buses • Tour Buses The second purpose is to build a database of limousine and charter companies that are able to follow the criteria of the company and provide the services the consumer demands. The Consumers usually are traveling for business or leisure. Whether alone or accompanied, the availability for transportation services once they arrive at their destination will be needed. Twelve percent of Americans used a private charter or limousine service in the previous month, according to a recent federal government survey. The 12% usage rate for private charter and limos compares with 13% for public transit (i.e., bus, rail and ferry) and 7% for airport, hotel, rental car and other shuttle services. Private charter and limos are thus one of the most widely used modes of publicly available transportation in the United States. Competitive Advantages of Strategic Sales Planning • Increased closing ratio by knowing clients needs • Improved client loyalty by focusing on their needs • Shorten the sales cycle with outside recommendations • Outsell competitors by offering the best solution The company projects to sign on a minimum of 500 members a month, at a cost of $99.99 per member, which is an annual fee, meeting the projection shouldn’t be a problem. Once approved, each member will be given the opportunity to pick an advertising campaign tier which will appear on the companies’ network for consumer viewing. Out of these 500 members we expect the following percentage to pick the following tier: • Tier One-Free with membership-an anticipated 10% (50) of memberships expected • Tier Two-Cost $35 a month- an anticipated 60% (300) of memberships are expected • Tier Three-Cost $55 a month- an anticipated 29.6% (148) of memberships expected • Preferred Members-Cost $250 (2)a month- since only two at a time per month can be preferred The company projection for Gross Revenue heading into the second month will be $69,135.00, in both membership fees and Tier Value. In a company-conducted two year case study with (URL removed), management discovered that their member’s averaged 7 leads a day, at a cost of $1.09 a lead. Based on the efficiency of (URL removed)’s custom database compared to (URL removed) (one of the competitors), the company should see an increase in lead production of 10 instead of 7 going into second month, leaving us with a Gross Revenue at the end of the second month of $302,500.00. This amount is pro-rated, combining both months, because first month forecast can’t be generated accurately. Percentages may vary according to geographical areas. For example, members who live in Vermont or Rhode Island may sign up on as a Tier One company, since competition is at a bear minimum, while in New York and New Jersey companies may sign on as a Tier Three company since competition is greater. The company will penetrate the market in the business of helping web based users locate chauffeured transportation to and from any domestic airport located within the Continental United States. They also recognize the opportunities for registering chauffeured limousine and chartered transportation companies, through memberships, to a database so that they can provide their service to web based users. (URL removed) will serve its area of business working to make its lines more productive while at the same time controlling expenses. The money required to get the company organized has been provided by the founder. To make this company a reality, there will be an amount needed of $297,500.00. The founder will be investing $10,000.00 leaving a balance of $287,500.00, which will come as a loan. The $297,500.00 is the complete amount needed to open and operate this business. The money will be allocated to take care of all the requirements. This business is based on two vital components: 1. An excellent management team that has the knowledge of choosing the right service at the right time with an understanding of knowing what its total market is and how to keep gaining a greater share of that market. 2. Providing an excellent service that is not only well accepted now but also whose acceptance and use will continue to grow at an accelerated rate into the future. (URL removed) will coordinate worker productivity with increasing market demand to ensure continued growth and development. Its approach emphasizes the participation of each member of the organization and the total process of building the company to acquire an ever-increasing market share. By guiding and helping employees with knowledge and awareness, it will build a solid foundation for achieving its most ambitious goals. (URL removed) realizes that this is an ideal time to establish its business in this expanding industry and move forward in a steady progression with a steady hand over the next five years. Some of the highlights of its strategy are here briefly summarized: 1) (URL removed) has superior talent and experience for the market. 2) Profitability is assured by its preparation of knowing what the market requirements are presently and what they are to be in the next several years. 3) With its strategy and budget in place, sales are expected to multiply rapidly and the company expects to move in on the leaders in the industry.
