Main Competitor
Location:
o G. Scotten Talent Center
G. Scotten Talent Center is located at 13315 Britton Park
Road which is 7.1 miles away from my business. My business is

Primary Strengths and Weaknesses:
Strengths:
I have attended G. Scotten Talent Center when I was younger for about three years. It offers dance, singing, acting, and piano classes. They travel all over America for competitions. They are located in Fishers, Indiana which has a very high population of children and people in general. G. Scotten Talent Center has had experience for many years in this business. Their instructors are knowledgeable about what they are teaching, and are good at it.
Weaknesses:
I have noticed that G. Scotten Talent Center is located in a building that is not very welcoming. The building is small containing three dance rooms, a small hallway, a small desk area, one bathroom for one person at a time, and a small upstairs. A lot of their customers are leaving due to bad customer service.
Other competitors:
o The Academy of Dance Arts
Primary Strengths and Weaknesses
Strengths:
I have attended The Academy of Dance Arts for one year and noticed it has a strong ballet company. They have a fairly large space, and many customers.
Weaknesses:
I still attend The Academy of Dance Arts, but only for privates. There is no passion within their company. They also do not compete.
o I Love Yoga
Primary Strengths and Weaknesses
Strengths:
From previously attending I Love Yoga, I have seen this company thrive in soothing and relaxing people through movements and breathing techniques.
Weaknesses:
At I Love Yoga, they only have yoga classes. They need more a variety to obtain more customers.
6
o Bar Bee Fit
Primary Strengths and Weaknesses
Strengths:
After attending Bar Bee Fit they have shown a new and original idea of an exercise class that incorporates the ballet bar. The floor they exercise on is matted and the customers wear socks while working out to insure comfort and joint support.
Weaknesses:
A weakness I have noticed is that Bar Bee Fit only offers bar classes. All of their classes are more focused on women lowering their target market.
Competitive Advantages and Disadvantages:
Advantages:
Come Dance With Me offers dance, yoga, and ballet bar exercise classes. In the first year I need to focus on buying market share. I will have the best quality that I can have in the first year. In the years to follow instead of leading with price, I will lead with quality and reputation. I teach the choreography, so it does not cost extra to hire a choreographer. I have a lot of experience in dance, yoga, and ballet bar exercise classes. Having attended classes at each of my competitors businesses I have experienced what they offer and have found needs unmeet. Come Dance With Me is located in Fishers, Indiana that contains a large population. It is also near Geist, a very popular area. Come Dance With Me has a very open and welcoming space with incredible customer service. We have a more updated style. At Come Dance With Me I will be the only instructor until we need some more. I will combine the teaching methods I have liked over the years to insure my students are having fun and learning.
Disadvantages:
Come Dance With Me is not known by many people. We need to build up a reputation. We do not travel all around America because we are new and need to get our name out there. We do not offer singing, piano, or acting classes. Our main weakness is that we don’t have very much experience in running a business.

Part C: Proposed Strategies
i. Pricing Policy Come Dance With Me offers many different dance and workout classes. The prices are based off of how difficult the class is or how technical it is and how long it is. Dance classes are more expensive due to costume fees, recitals, and more technique and time. The ballet bar classes and yoga classes are initially priced based off of our competitors’ prices, until Come Dance With Me is priced off of reputation and quality. The cost for bar and yoga classes will be a little bit lower than our biggest competitor. Bar Bee Fit is our main competitor with our bar classes. They charge $20 per class. Come Dance With Me will charge $15 per class. Yoga will cost $10 per class. Dance classes will cost $20 per class. For competition dancers it will be higher, but we will start that once we have enough dancers. These prices were based off of the club sport at Fishers High School known as the Fishers Fusion Dance Team costs, G. Scotten Talent Center costs, and The Academy of Dance Arts costs.
ii. Cost Explanations The pricing of dance classes were based off of other dance studios. The way I decided the amount of money it would cost to be on the competition team was by making it a little more than Fishers Fusion Dance Team, and less than the competitive studio, G. Scotten Talent Center. The Academy of Dance Arts does not compete but I took into and consider what their prices were. I have attended each dance company before, and still am a member of the Fishers Fusion Varsity Dance Team.

iii. Price Compared to Competitors
Our prices are not too expensive, but just enough to stay competitive. I decided to make dance classes more than the school dance team because we offer more technique and training value. Our prices are lower than G. Scotten Talent Center because they are very experienced and we want to discourage them.
iv. What factors are affecting price? These factors include the wages I pay my employees, amount of competition, and cost of surrounding area. The pricing on classes will have to be not too high or too low to attract costumer, and also gain a profit after paying my employees, attorney, maintenance/cleaners, accountant, and costume designer. The costume designer will ultimately be paid by my customers. In the first year I need to focus on buying market share. I will have the best quality that I can have in the first year. In the years to follow instead of leading with price, I will lead with quality and reputation.
v. Proposed promotion program Come Dance With Me is going to distribute 3,000 fliers describing the dance company and inviting customers to drop by for a free class and cup of coffee. We will sponsor high-profile events. Free classes for first timers will be handed out. Come Dance With Me will hand out business cards. We will hold an annual dancer clinic for anyone 5-13 years of age looking for a fun way to learn about dance and perform at a high school basketball game. Also we will send press releases to local media telling them about our company.
Come Dance With Me: Marketing Plan
Goal: Make loyal customers, and gain more customers each year.
Marketing Mix
Strategy
Service • Provide a wide selection of dance classes also including yoga and ballet bar classes for all ages.
Place • Being located where it is convenient for parents to go shopping while their kids are dancing
• Having a bar class be at the same time as a dance class so that a parent does not have to make any extra trips
• Stay after to help with any concerns
Price • In the first year I need to focus on buying market share. I will have the best quality that I can have in the first year. In the years to follow instead of leading with price, I will lead with quality and reputation.
Promotion • Distribute 3,000 fliers describing the dance company and inviting customers to drop by for free class and cup of coffee.
• Sponsor high-profile non-profit events • Distribute a free class for first timers • Send press releases to local media, letting them know about the
company’s grand opening and its mission • Create a pleasant atmosphere • Create business cards
V. Planned Finances
A. Projected Income and Expenses The gross sales are comprised of the service Come Dance With Me gives including dance, bar, and yoga classes. As the years go on the gross sales increase dramatically. This growth in sales increases the profit. April through July kids are on summer break. Families are relaxed during vacations, and do not see exercising as a priority. There are also summer workouts during these months. During these months service is much lower. August through November dancers are working on competition routines. People are trying to find ways to not stress or gain too much weight before the holidays. During these months we have average business. December through March is competition season for the dancers. These months are much more stressful during the holidays. A lot of people’s New Year’s Resolutions are to become healthy and fit. These are our busiest months. In the Cash Flow Statement, the beginning cash required to have on hand at the beginning of starting my business while we are not making money yet is acquired through personal savings and loans. The cash required is only short term.
B. Proposed Plan of Capital Needs The approach I am taking to pay off the initial loan is to use some of my personal saving and the assistance of other banks and loans. When my profits increase this short term borrowing will not be needed to be used anymore. To minimize interest lost this payment will be paid in the first five years. C. Income
April-July= Dance classes: $20*10 people*4 weeks*2 classes (low) = $1,600 Yoga classes: $10*15 people*4 weeks*1 classes (low) =$600 Bar Classes: $15*15 people*4 weeks*1 classes (low) = $900 Total: $3,100
August-November= Dance classes: $20*10 people*4 weeks*4 classes (mid) = $3,200 Yoga classes: $10*15 people*4 weeks*3 classes (mid) =$1,800 Bar Classes: $15*15 people*4 weeks*3 classes (mid) = $2,700 Total: $7,700
December-March= Dance classes: $20*10 people*4 weeks*6 classes (high) = $4,800 Yoga classes: $10*15 people*4 weeks*5 classes (high) =$3,000 Bar Classes: $15*15 people*4 weeks*5 classes (high) = $4,500 Total: $12,300
D. Top Expenses Payroll: My manager/front desk employee will make $1,500 per month. I will only pay myself when there is a profit. Rent: Although I do get the first two months free, it is still the size of my business times rent plus CAMS per year which is a lot of money. Advertising: My business needs to get its name out there, and be competitive. Also, the prices for advertising are brought up during the holidays. I am focused on advertising for schools to get most of my students. This will cost close to nothing but time.
