       Use new technical instruments.
       Always aware about changes in beauty cultural field.

             3. Psychographic segmentation
             4. Behavioral segmentation

        We had an interview with the owner of the Salon Praba. We got details of their
current market & customer situation. (Nature of the markets, customer preferences, customer
loyalty, and growth of market segments, geographic/demographic & behavioral factors,
market trends, etc.) By analyzing facts have been collected, we came to a conclusion that the
best segmentation technique for this salon is Demographic Segmentation.

        There are several criteria used to divide the market under Demographic

            1. Age
            2. Gender
            3. Family size

                                             20
Marketing Plan for Salon Praba 2011

        The market is segmented based on age and gender. Because customers can be easily
satisfied in different age groups in different ways. And customers under same age group may
response in a similar way & other age groups respond in different ways for same services
provided by the saloon. Most salons don’t consider the male market. Therefore the market is
also categorized according to the gender because different services can be introduced for
males as well.

        The market of salon Praba is segmented according to age & gender. Thus the Multi
Attribute Demographic Segmentation is used to segment the market. This is the way the
market is segmented.




       Profiling the Market segments

T         argeting
      Targeting is the next step of target marketing process. In order to select appropriate
segment or segments to serve following steps must be followed.
   1. Evaluating attractiveness of each segment.
   2. Deciding how many and what segments to target.



Evaluating attractiveness of each segment

       Saloon Praba is situated at Katubedda area. It is an urban area in Colombo district.
Therefore we can see there is an adequate population in that area.

            Females & males – From 3 to 12 years old
                 Segment size and growth - As this is an urban area we can see lot of
                  schools situated in that area. There are lots of school children in that area.
                  We can serve them by providing children packages like hair cutting.
                 Structural attractiveness
                      Threat of intense segment rivalry - This service is provided by not
                         only beauty salons but also other hair cutting saloons. Therefore we
                         can find more competition in this market. But other beauty salons
                         rarely provide this service. Therefore we can attract more customers
                         by offering attractive children hair cutting packages than other
                         salons.
                      Threat of new entrance - There is a possibility to attract new
                         competitors in children hair cutting. Because it is easy to start hair
                         cutting salons as it required law capital.
                      Threat of substitute products - Customers can cut children’s hair at
                         home. Therefore no need to go salon always because it is easy to cut
                         children’s haircuts.
                      Threat of growing bargaining power of buyers - Buyers can bargain
                         to reduce the price as there is more competition.


                                                22

    Company objectives and resources - The main objective of this saloon is to
     become the leading part of the beauty salon market in this area. Children
     hair cutting is not a relevant service for hair salons. It is an additional
     service. But in order to diversify services they provide we can introduce
     children’s hair cutting as well.
Females - from 12 to 19 years old
    Segment size and growth - This is the young school market. There are lots
     of teenage school students in this area because there are many schools and
     extra classes can be seen. Therefore large enough to serve.
    Structural attractiveness
          Threat of intense segment rivalry – We can provide many beauty
            culture services for teenagers. There are many beauty salons
            around this area to serve theses customers. Therefore the
            competition is high.
          Threat of new entrance - New saloons can be opened because there
            is an adequate market for this.
          Threat of substitute product - There are many products in the
            market that teenagers can use themselves without consultation of a
            saloon.
          Threat of growing bargaining power of buyers - If the chargers are
            high than others there is a possibility to shift to another saloon.
            Therefore bargaining power is high.
          Threat of growing bargaining power of suppliers - They must buy
            various products such as face wash, cleanses, scrubs, packs, etc. the
            demand for this product is high. Therefore supplier’s bargaining
            power is also high.
    Company objectives and resources – There are enough resources to satisfy
     this segment and their objectives are match with needs of this segment.

            Also most customers prefer to get service from famous beauticians
            for their weddings. Therefore this saloon faces the competition
            from saloons surrounding Katubedda area as well as famous
            beauticians.
          Threat of new entrants – So many new saloons may enter into the
            market as bridal dressing & facials become more popular & it has
            become a trend. Ladies follow beauty cultural courses most
            probably.
          Threat of substitute products – Most customers consults doctors for
            their problems such as pimples. Some people do facials at home
            using natural things. There are some saloons which use which use
            herbal products other than artificial treatments. There are
            Auyrvedic products for skin treatments.
          Threat of growing bargaining power of buyers – As there is high
            competition in this segment buyers bargaining power is high.
            Buyers can find alternatives at lower cost. Also some buyers seek
            for high quality service other than considering cost.
          Threat of growing bargaining power of suppliers – Saloon needs
            suppliers like bridal dressing, flower arranging, jewelry suppliers &
            other facial cosmetics. Nowadays we can see increasing demand
            for these kinds of products. Therefore suppliers bargaining power
            is increasing.

        The environment not much bad but some time salon reception place does not
        have enough space. As a result of that customers are not that much facilitated
        by the receptionist.

                Salon owner must consider about this problem & modify that place
                 attractively.

Geographic segmentation 2. Demographic segmentation 3. Psychographic segmentation 4. Behavioral segmentation We had an interview with the owner of the Salon Praba. We got details of their current market & customer situation. (Nature of the markets, customer preferences, customer loyalty, and growth of market segments, geographic/demographic & behavioral factors, market trends, etc.) By analyzing facts have been collected, we came to a conclusion that the best segmentation technique for this salon is Demographic Segmentation. There are several criteria used to divide the market under Demographic Segmentation. Those are, 1. Age 2. Gender 3. Family size 4. Family life cycle 5. Income 6. Occupation 7. Education 20
  • 23. Marketing Plan for Salon Praba 2011 The market is segmented based on age and gender. Because customers can be easily satisfied in different age groups in different ways. And customers under same age group may response in a similar way & other age groups respond in different ways for same services provided by the saloon. Most salons don’t consider the male market. Therefore the market is also categorized according to the gender because different services can be introduced for males as well. The market of salon Praba is segmented according to age & gender. Thus the Multi Attribute Demographic Segmentation is used to segment the market. This is the way the market is segmented. Profiling the Market segments Male Female 1. From 3 to 12 years 2. From 3 to 12 Years 3. Above 13 years 4. From 13 to 19 years …… 5. From 20 to 30 Years …… 6. Above 30 years 21

We can serve them by providing children packages like hair cutting.  Structural attractiveness  Threat of intense segment rivalry - This service is provided by not only beauty salons but also other hair cutting saloons. Therefore we can find more competition in this market. But other beauty salons rarely provide this service. Therefore we can attract more customers by offering attractive children hair cutting packages than other salons.  Threat of new entrance - There is a possibility to attract new competitors in children hair cutting. Because it is easy to start hair cutting salons as it required law capital.  Threat of substitute products - Customers can cut children’s hair at home.
