Executive Summary

          Although women today make up a large number of the consumers of energy drinks in the global

market. The idea of energy drinks for women in Thailand is still a rather new subject. Yet with the rising

trend of healthy consumption in Thailand, women consumers are becoming more and more conscious

about what they consume. Healthier alternatives to coffee and other high calories and fattening energy

drinks have becoming increasingly popular in the food industry, especially those that are new and

unique.


          Therefore, to take advantage of this opportunity, our company would like to propose an idea of

GIRLZ, an innovative women’s sugar-free, fat-free energy drink, promising a boost that would not work

against women’s body in the long run. With light fruity flavors, GIRLZ provide a relaxing feeling that still

allows women to get that much boost without the jittery feeling that is commonly associated with

traditional energy drinks.


          The purpose of this project is to develop a comprehensive business plan for GIRLZ, a healthy

energy drink for women, and assess the opportunity of it in the market though the use of qualitative and

quantitative surveys and relevant data collection.


          The project will explore business opportunities by investigating our target customers’

preferences, current market situation, and price of the products will also be determined through the

data collecting process. We also analyzed Thailand’s energy drinks market and its background, as well as

evaluated the opportunities available in the market that may benefit our business.


The final plan will ultimately determine whether the proposed business is viable in today’s market.



                                                                                                   1|Page

Background


        Energy drinks are non-alcoholic beverages intended to provide a quick burst of high energy to

the consumer. Generally, the core component is

caffeine. Thailand has a long history of energy drinks




                                                                                                       Energy Drink in

and the use of caffeine has been a key ingredient.

Recent years have witnessed the emergence of

several new energy drinks. The dominant ones in

Thai’s market include M 150, Carabao Daeng, Krating

Daeng or Red Bull, and Lipovitan-D or Lipo.


        For a rather long time, energy drinks have been especially popular among the Thailand's Tuk-tuk

and bus drivers. Since when energy drinks where originally launched in Thailand, they targeted at the so-

called blue-collar client. The energy boosters were for the hard-working men to get through the day. To

many Thais, a thick syrup like sweet beverage in simple little brown bottles suitable to be hold in manly

hard hands. The image has remained and got even more

emphasized when the companies started to function as

sponsors in real men sports such as Thai Boxing and Western

style boxing.


        Although women today make up a large number of the consumers of energy drinks in the global

market. The idea of energy drinks for women in Thailand is still a rather new subject. Many energy

drinks ads in Thailand purposely use an exclusive aiming at male consumers, this explains why at least

Thai females rather stay away from these products.

their health than men; they are apt to be more

the products ingredients. Women too need energy in

their daily lives. This energy must be consistent

energy,     not   your    short-lived    energy    buzz.

Furthermore, it must be healthy energy, or it is

scratched off of their analytical criteria lists. When it

comes to healthy, women tend to have eagle eyes.


In response, GIRLZ is releasing an energy drink for

women that have both sugar-free and fat-free, promising a boost that wouldn’t work against women in

the long run. The product is made sure to pay special attention to female consumers.

Marketing Strategies
1. Product Strategy

Our product marketing strategy will emphasize the benefits of consuming our products; including

refreshment, energy boost without jitters, calorie-burning, as well as skin revitalization. Since women

are extremely active but have low energy and stamina to work the day off, we intend to sell the

opportunity to regain energy instantly and enjoy oneself amongst friends, family, and colleagues.

energy drink has the great light taste that helps women revitalize their body condition without having

any side effects. GIRLZ stand outs from other energy drinks since it contains natural ingredients,

vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, with low amount of caffeine. What’s more, GIRLZ is sweetened

with sucralose. That means it is sugar-free, carbohydrate-free, and most importantly calorie-free.

Therefore, it delivers the nutrition that women with active lifestyles need, whether for doing extra work

in the office or spending time during a late night to study for an exam.

GIRLZ Pricing Strategy


The survey results reveal that pricing does not have the effect on consuming decisions of energy drink

customers. Thirty-eight point six percent of the respondents see their favorite energy drink brand

superior to others due to the flavor; where as 28.1% of them value the quality of the product. Since,

GIRLZ is unique and of very high quality energy drink, the company will be able to employ the premium

pricing strategy.



               In what way does your favorite brand appear
                to be superior to other brands of the same
                                 category?

Premium pricing or prestige pricing is the strategy of consistently pricing at, or near, the high end of the

possible price range to reflect the exclusiveness of the product. Buyers of such products usually view

them as luxuries and have little or no price sensitivity. The advantages of applying this strategy include:




                                                                                               18 | P a g e

1. The consumers of GIRLZ will see the high price as an indication of good quality.


2. The premium price charged for the uniqueness and quality of GIRLZ allows the company to generate

large profit margins on each item sold.


3. The premium price will also display GIRLZ’s commitment to quality, and the customers will think of

GIRLZ when they desire such exclusive superiority.


In conclusion, GIRLZ will be charged at 19 baht per 100 mL bottle. This is the price for the opportunity to

regain energy instantly without having side effects but receiving a natural look and feel that the

consumers cannot get from the other energy drinks. Moreover, 19 baht is the reasonable price for

sugar-free, carbohydrate-free, and calorie-free energy drink that can burn calorie and revitalize the skin.

In the future, GIRLZ aspires to change the pricing strategy into skim pricing strategy; reducing the price

when any direct competitors enter the market. However, GIRLZ will continue maintaining and improving

the quality as well as the reputation of the first women energy drink in Thailand.




                                                                                              19 | P a g e

3. Distribution strategy

        Since GIRLZ is the new product to the market. The company plans to use intensive distribution

the product: selling the products through as many outlets as possible, so the consumers encounter the

product virtually everywhere the; including, supermarkets, drug stores, and gas stations. However,

GIRLZ will be distributed throughout Thailand to serve active lifestyle both in the city and other areas. In

addition, the company utilizes indirect distribution method to allocate GIRLZ by the use of an

intermediary.

4. Promotional Strategies

   Advertising

       Since GIRLZ is a newly developed brand generally at the beginning phrase of the market, our

   main aim on is to start extensive advertising of our products, in addition to our brand name. This is

   so as to generate maximum awareness and knowledge of the general public, and attract the target

   customer the hopefully gain adequate and sufficient market share.

       To new brand like GIRLZ, customers’ exposure to advertising is key. One way to amplify

   communication impact to the public is to advertise GIRLZ television commercials through free TV

   channels. However, since GIRLZ is targeting at a niche market, we saw that it is vital to air the

   commercials on overplay female oriented channel and programs.


       Other than television commercials, we also intend to advertise our brand and product

   outdoor, especially on transit advertising. To match




                                                                                                             Advertising on BTS
   our target busy dynamic lifestyles with the

   advertising execution, advertising on the BTS, MRT,

   and bus stops is considered potentially effective.


      Moreover, targets in schools and colleges would

   be exposed to print advertising, including posters and billboards of GIRLZ around the campus.


      Apart from that, magazine ads are effective in reaching the target of the particular

   demographics. GIRLZ ads will be placed on women’s magazines such as Elle, Cleo, and Di-Chan.




                                                                                              21 | P a g e

These magazines particularly a very specific readership based on factors including interests, age,

and female gender. By leveraging readership demographics, it is directly ensure that the message is

being seen by the right audience. In addition to raising awareness; magazine ads educate readers

about the product, create interest, and eventually enhance purchase.


   Another cost effective strategy to advertise our product is through online advertising. GIRLZ

official site should be established as well as a fan page on social networking sites such as facebook

and twitter, in which provide a space for potential and interested customers to do their research,

receive    news,     and     exchange




                                                                                                        GIRLZ FACEBOOK PAGE
opinions. With advanced technology

and targets’ computer and Internet

literacy, customers can be exposed

to promotional information of GIRLS

online, develop interest, undergo

search    process,   which   increase

traffic to the main site and in turn increase purchase.


Events

   Events are becoming increasingly essential as in order for a brand to gain acknowledgements.

GIRLZ aspires to participate in tradeshows inviting key prospects and customers with intriguing

incentives. Not only this will increase awareness of the product, but if the product were to gain

recognition, the organization or the brand GIRLZ will be able to take advantage of this in all its

promotional campaigns, adding force to its reputation and image. Certainly, this would increase



                                                                                        22 | P a g e

confidence and pride in our staff. Communicating such achievements often gives customers a

feeling that they can rely on the product, and this builds strong customer loyalty.


   Other than tradeshows, GIRLZ also has a mission is to raise awareness and funds for Breast

Cancer and Ovarian Cancer research and prevention through organizing special events, while

supplying networking opportunities for those in need to learn more about these deadly cancers and

get help through our partners.




                                                                                                      GIRLZ CANCER CHARITY
   GIRLZ also is advocating for inspirational design, and fashion, which are industries most women

are interested in. GIRLZ aims to organize annual benefit fashion runway shows, which are regarded

for its excellence in design and presentation. The runway show will feature university students in

Thailand as designers, models, dancers, photographers, event planners and leaders, and gives back

to a local charity. Expecting an audience of many students, staff and Thailand entertainment and

fashion industry professionals, the runway show will consistently be well-received and highlighted

in the media.

                                                                                       23 | P a g e

Public Relations

   The need for public relations in today’s business is growing at a fast pace. Plus, recognizing that

GIRLZ is relatively new to the market, there will be a need to organize an event, to introduce the

brand to the market. We intend to place news stories and features in magazines and newspapers to

keep stakeholders updated on the latest information and to increase awareness among target

customers. Potential customers, related senior officials, and other stakeholders will be invited to

the events so as to penetrate the market. Most importantly, the press and the media should be

informed about any events in advanced through press releases. This is in hope for the media to

disseminate favorable information to the public




                                                                                                         Conference
                                                                                                         GIRLZ Press
especially to the target customers. Favorable

information publicized by the press and the

media, would generally leverage the product, as

well as the brand’s image.


    With our plans to organize events, including tradeshows, fund raisings, and fashion shows,

public relations is needed in order to assist in the recognition and appreciation of our company in

the surrounding community especially. GIRLZ’s efforts on community service will demonstrate that

the company has its community at heart, contributing towards the establishment of a good and

reputable image.




                                                                                         24 | P a g e

Personal Selling and Sales promotion

      GIRLZ intends to use personal selling combined with

sales promotion to obtain a relatively high degree of brand




                                                                                                        GIRLZ KIOSK
attention as well as to promote an increase in sales. GIRLZ

will use 50 Kiosks to provide tasting of our energy drink at

sampling points in major supermarkets around Thailand.

The salespersons at the sampling points will find the

potential customers, provide the information about the

benefits of the product, demonstrate GIRLZ cocktail recipes, answer the questions, and try to close

the sale. We believe that this strategy will not only boost the sale and the awareness of the product

but also enhance the long-term relationship among the company and customers.




                                                                                         25 | P a g e

CONCLUSION
         Although the inspiration of energy drinks for women in Thailand is still considered novel subject,

there is obvious inclination toward healthy consumption in Thailand, this is especially true to women

consumers who are becoming extra conscious about what they eat and drink. Along with the fact that

energy drinks in Thailand are generally made for as well as targeted at men customers, GIRLZ attempts

to lessen the gap in the market by prompting as the first healthy energy drink specially made for

women.


        With such opportunity in the market, the best investment prospect will be awarded to

companies that have the innovation and creativity to meet the demands of their target customers,

whose purchasing and adopting behaviors are driven by economic conditions, demographics trends, and

pricing. In this case, GIRLS does just as mentioned, by offering Thai women the first and only litchi-

flavored energy drink energy drink specially formulated for women to revitalizes their body without any

side effects.


        As presented throughout our proposal, with summation and prediction obtained from real facts,

statistics, and numbers, it is perceivable that GIRLZ energy drink for women business in Thailand will be

a promising venture.


        Based on the extensive primary and secondary researches conducted, the company has come to

a conclusion that the energy drink industry in Thailand, although highly competitive in among men

customers market and may tough to break through the clutter, it is expectedly lucrative for companies

with daring inspirations and inventive product ideas to invest in. Hence, with our creative spin to a

longstanding industry, the company’s management is confident that GIRLZ can achieve its aggressive

income forecasts, generating up to 5.9 million baht per month by the third month of our production,

                                                                                               32 | P a g e

and thus, obtaining a return on the capital investments within less than three months by achieving the

primary goal of selling the total of 600,000 bottle within the timeframe.


        In addition, GIRLZ’s management team are also looking forward to expand our production level

to keep up with the promising increasing demand, for we are convinced that we have the potential to

become the first successful women energy drink in Thailand. In other words, due to the company’s

aggressive marketing tactic, premium pricing strategy, unique and fresh brand positioning, continuous

and thoughtful product quality development, GIRLS has the potential to provide lucrative returns to

potential investors.


        Hence, for the company to secure initial capital, it would require no more than two million baht

of financing, which would be used to fund our start-up costs, to further develop the business, its

infrastructure, operating systems and product manufacturing systems. Providing that the company is

able to acquire its funding requirements, GIRLZ should be able to achieve immense accomplishment for

many years to come.




                                                                                              33 | P a g e

Healthy Energy Drink for Women Captures Thai Market

  • 1. 1 Executive Summary Although women today make up a large number of the consumers of energy drinks in the global market. The idea of energy drinks for women in Thailand is still a rather new subject. Yet with the rising trend of healthy consumption in Thailand, women consumers are becoming more and more conscious about what they consume. Healthier alternatives to coffee and other high calories and fattening energy drinks have becoming increasingly popular in the food industry, especially those that are new and unique. Therefore, to take advantage of this opportunity, our company would like to propose an idea of GIRLZ, an innovative women’s sugar-free, fat-free energy drink, promising a boost that would not work against women’s body in the long run. With light fruity flavors, GIRLZ provide a relaxing feeling that still allows women to get that much boost without the jittery feeling that is commonly associated with traditional energy drinks. The purpose of this project is to develop a comprehensive business plan for GIRLZ, a healthy energy drink for women, and assess the opportunity of it in the market though the use of qualitative and quantitative surveys and relevant data collection. The project will explore business opportunities by investigating our target customers’ preferences, current market situation, and price of the products will also be determined through the data collecting process. We also analyzed Thailand’s energy drinks market and its background, as well as evaluated the opportunities available in the market that may benefit our business. The final plan will ultimately determine whether the proposed business is viable in today’s market. 1|Page
  • 2. 2 Background Energy drinks are non-alcoholic beverages intended to provide a quick burst of high energy to the consumer. Generally, the core component is caffeine. Thailand has a long history of energy drinks Energy Drink in Thailand and the use of caffeine has been a key ingredient. Recent years have witnessed the emergence of several new energy drinks. The dominant ones in Thai’s market include M 150, Carabao Daeng, Krating Daeng or Red Bull, and Lipovitan-D or Lipo. For a rather long time, energy drinks have been especially popular among the Thailand's Tuk-tuk and bus drivers. Since when energy drinks where originally launched in Thailand, they targeted at the so- called blue-collar client. The energy boosters were for the hard-working men to get through the day. To many Thais, a thick syrup like sweet beverage in simple little brown bottles suitable to be hold in manly hard hands. The image has remained and got even more Male Consumer emphasized when the companies started to function as sponsors in real men sports such as Thai Boxing and Western style boxing. Although women today make up a large number of the consumers of energy drinks in the global market. The idea of energy drinks for women in Thailand is still a rather new subject. Many energy drinks ads in Thailand purposely use an exclusive aiming at male consumers, this explains why at least Thai females rather stay away from these products. 2|Page
  • 3. 3 However, women are more concerned for their health than men; they are apt to be more Women are more concerned for their health than men. selective than men. This means paying attention to the products ingredients. Women too need energy in their daily lives. This energy must be consistent energy, not your short-lived energy buzz. Furthermore, it must be healthy energy, or it is scratched off of their analytical criteria lists. When it comes to healthy, women tend to have eagle eyes. In response, GIRLZ is releasing an energy drink for women that have both sugar-free and fat-free, promising a boost that wouldn’t work against women in the long run. The product is made sure to pay special attention to female consumers. 3|Page
  • 4. 4 Company Overview Company Name: GIRLZ Company Ltd. Mission: “Our mission is to serve women by providing quality energy drink.” Slogan: Cheer up! Vision: Our vision is to capture Thai market by providing quality energy drink at premium price in order to match women’s lifestyle. 4|Page
  • 5. 5 Objectives: • Maintain positive, strong growth each year not withstanding seasonal sales patterns. • Increase customer satisfaction simultaneously. • Boost the profit margin by adequate percentage each quarter through efficiency and economy of scale. • Maintain a significant research and development and advertisement budget to enhance future product developments. • Improve brand knowledge and public attitudes toward energy drink and women. Keys to Success: In order to create such profitable and sustainable company, GIRLZ must eliminate the image that energy drinks are only for men, design and produce quality products that meet female market demand, as well as ensure total customer satisfaction. Company Description GIRLZ Company Limited is a new beverage company that aims to attract female customers. It will launch the first product - quality energy drink with women’s in mind – under the same name of the company “GIRLZ.” 5|Page
  • 6. 6 SWOT ANALYSIS The following SWOT analysis takes the key strengths and weaknesses within the company, and details the opportunities and threats we will be facing from the external environment, which would provide management with a framework for reviewing the strategy, position, and direction of the company. Strengths • Remarkable Style o GIRLZ has a fresh and fashionable brand identity attractive to most women for the design of the logo, bottle and execution is specially specified for women. • The only company producing energy drink that target women o None of the existing energy drinks in the market is targeting female consumers.
