    9.+ C6ecutive #ummary

    1ellular telephones have revolutioniDed the communications arena, redefining how we perceivevoice communications. raditionally, cellular phones remained out of the hands of most

    consumers due to their high cost. As a result, cell phone carriers have invested time and

    resources into finding ways to give the systems higher capacity and thus lower cost. 1ellsystems are benefiting from this research and starting to develop into large:scale consumer

    products.

    oday, cellular phones are truly consumer electronics devices with over 2< million subscribers.

    he 5okia 'owl and Eualcomm #tadium are further evidence of the idea that cell phones areconsumer electronics devices. 1ell phones have ceased to be an e6clusive status symbol of

    high:powered lawyers and are now in the hands of millions of consumers.

    distinguished and recogniDed leader in the cellular communications industry. t is the goal ofour company to become established as the leading distributor of wireless communications

    services in the metro 5iceburg area.

    n order to achieve this goal, Farbles 1ellular honesG critical success factors will be to identify

    emerging trends and integrate them into our company operations, respond -uickly totechnology changesHbe there early, provide high:-uality services, invest time and money in

    marketing and advertising, e6pand into specialty markets, and stay ahead of the Itechnologycurve.I

    Farbles 1ellular hones, nc. will offer its customers F#J cellular phones, and cellular phonesaccessories.

    F#J stands for IFlobal #ystem for Jobile 1ommunications.I F#J is originally a Curopean

    system and is largely being adopted today in the nited #tates. ts greatest advantage, atechnical one, is that the owner can use the phone all over the world since the system is used

    mostly anywhere.

    Jarket demand drives cell phone manufactures and service providers to offer new andimproved services and functions in their cell phones. he demand for more visual interactionand entertainment with cell phones in the Qapanese market, for instance, is great and as such,

    their phones are many years ahead of what we will see in the .#.A. hones have definitelybecome an important part of peopleGs lives all over the world, whereas in 5orth America many

    still view the cell phone as a tool and not as a entertainment device. he average phone in5orth America lasts N:2 years before being replaced, in Qapan it is a fraction of this time.

    We believe that, with our long and thorough e6perience in the CAA, our store will be in the

    perfect location to start our operations in the .#.A., and will start operating in the right time.

    Farbles 1ellular hones will provide its customers support and convenience second to none.

    O.+ Jarket Analysis #ummary

    he market potential is huge for our products, evidenced by what appears to be the

    unstoppable growth of the telecom industry. 1urrently, the telecom industry is among thestrongest growth industries and is responsible for huge gains in the capital markets. he

    proliferation of cellular phones is increasing at rates which at one time were unimaginable. Mneillustrative e6ample is that it is forecasted that within two years over >23 of children from age

    of 9+:92 will have cell phones.

    )uture growth of the marketHproducts is projected in the following areas!

    e6t messages between friends $in Qapan this big&. sers can send regular #hort:Jessage#ervice $#J#& or email on their phones. Cmail is of course limited to small file siDes, but many

    of the phones allow for Cnglish characters to be sent. Cach provider also allows specialcharacters to be sent, such as an array of happy and sad faces, small animated images,

    animals, people, hearts, etc. When special characters are not available, people often use aspecialiDed set of faces to show emotion. Cmail can also be sent between different provider

    phones, but many of the special characters are lost, hence users may try to keep a circle offriends on the same provider to receive the special characters. Cmail, of course, may be sent

    from computers as well, but files are often stripped of headers and attachments when receivedon cell phones.

    O.*.9 1ompetition and 'uying atterns

    'rand names are of little, if any, importance. he key to the buying decision on the part of theconsumer is the salesman and the cell phone being in front of them. As has been pointed out inthe 1ompetitive Analysis section there are other sellers with similar brand names as those

    supplied by Farbles 1ellular hones, nc. which may even be less e6pensive. t is essential thatthe salesman point out the salient features and selling points favoring our products. Jost

    importantly, our products must be available in the retail outlet, since whatever products ourstore carries are the ones that are going to be sold.

    he need to attract, ac-uire, leverage, and retain customers remains a primary concern to

    business. 7evenue growth through customer ac-uisition and retention is as important are-uirement in e:commerce as it is in other business. 1ustomers, especially in the Westernbusiness culture, count speed of service as a key reason why they do business with a company.

    hey resent delays and hate waiting for service. n the nited #tates, almost ;+3 of the grossdomestic product $FB& is generated through different kinds of services, and speed of service

    no longer distinguishes an enterprise as providing superior value. 1ustomers generally are notthrilled if they receive good service, but they are highly dissatisfied if they do not. Farbles

    1ellular will provide the necessary framework to cope with these demands by cutting thewaiting time for a service.

    1ustomers also want consistent, reliable, and easy:to:use service. As the speed of serviceincreases, customer e6pectations grow, making friendly, easy, and solution:oriented customer

    service an important business trend.

    7eflective shoppers get some support from e:commerce as well. hey like to investigate

    products precisely and consciously. Kowever, when browsing costs a lot because of on:linecharges, they do less of it. 1onse-uently, they do not get a holistic view of the available

    options, and their e6pectations often are not met. 7eference:spending customers do not letthemselves be hurried or forced. hey use alternative offline sources to get information. heyrefuse aggressive marketing, which is accepted in Western e:commerce.
