4. 3. Product and Service
Opportunity: Evidently, tutoring service is listed as one of the top 16 industries for
launching a new business
-with annual growth rate of 7% (2014).
-therefore, a tutor agency as a good business idea not only being it has growing demand
but also it is problem worth solving for the society at large.
1.Problem worth Solving
This day's Experience has shown that many of the students are looking for tutors to
overcome the limitations that they have about the subject matter and b/c they need to
master it.
Though there are individuals who give tutoring sessions, we sensed that this is not yet
enough to address the desire of the titanic and emerging market need and still this way of
delivery by its nature is problematical in view of the fact that;
•Families/clients who seek the service are diving with inflated prices, lacking link
with effective tutors who could certainly guide their Childs and at large facing with
fear of Vendor Trust and this can also terrify the tutor too.

5. Our Solution
Likewise, this agency is expected to offer easy access to tutoring services for
different field of studies by making its services ready mail for its kings by reducing
both side switching costs.
coming up with a legal personality that can entirely erode the both sides fear trust
being by its standing can be suing and be sued.
quality education emphasize being the tutors will be assigned based on their
competence results & given adequate inductions
 and this has got benefit to the employment opportunity of massive tutors.
employ a Systematic Analysis, a problem-solving method that students can apply
to a wide range of subjects
 Finally, clients will be of worth full by paying a reasonable price
•Per Individual tutoring 120 Birr/hour
•Per two group of people at a time 100 Birr each/hour
•Per three group of people at a time 80 Birr each/hour
•Per four group of Network people at a time 70 Birr each/hour
•Per five group of people 60 Birr each/hour

6. Validation of Problem and Solution (Opportunity) by
DIFA Model
A lot families have the interest/willingness and ability to pay since they give
the impression of being set money aside for tutoring. This is therefore, an
evidence for the existence of full Demand (the actual or potential customer
need, with ability to pay).
grow big enough to expand into other areas, such as running teaching,
training and consulting centers and striving business that a product, service or
technology can be provided with an Innovative Future.
charges the client for the tutor plus the commission on top and operating at a
very low cost will enable the agency as Attractive as being bear a good benefit
& interest for the founders.
And also, found to be Feasible given the technology & resources exist.

This is, therefore, while the secondary school segment will
remain as a core focus of the agency, much time will be dedicated
to promotion to this segment
and as an agency, it will offer its services to all of its target
markets including for those colleges diploma level students by
enhancing its operating competence.

8. Competition and Business analysis
Service Business Analysis; Show that while the need for tutoring exists, the
majority of tutoring delivered in the market are inefficient and not well
thought-out as well as have not legal guarantees.
Thus far what sets our firm separately is it's worth-problem solving
withstand and the attention paid to its clients.
Competition; If truth be told, majority of the competition comes from one-
on-one tutoring conducted by family relations, there is no organized
tutoring service and agency available.
However, as the business looks to expand and introduce to existing
market, there may sonly appear few organized competitors.
network tutoring agency will develop a website to put its assessment
and customer communication efforts at ease.

experience and difference background (Business & IT
professionals)

start & high customer reach

everything

on par time since working for other institution at full time
base.
lack of steady information sharing
system with clients
OPPORTUNITY:

aggressively increasing from year to year
Untapped Market; existence of full & unexploited
demand.

communication with Customers.
Rich Market Resource; existence of significant
number of tutors/par timers
THREAT:
Competition; resulted from the law cost of
entry and exist to or from the market
Internet cost escalation: due to the need
for more internet space as it enhances its operation
and dollar value variation.
Eradication of technological
innovations.
