 Target Market / customer profiles. Our target markets are middle to upper-middle class families, couples, individuals, or private and public organizations. They are most able to afford event planners, and have the least amount of time to spare for event planning in general. Families demand attention, employees are overburdened, and overwhelming detail needed to plan large events are too large a constraint to place on people not trained in the area of event planning. Not entertaining orders less than Rs. 1.5 lac. The fast pace of the world we live in leaves little time for extra things. We would plan events, parties, and social get-togethers. RedHott fills the need by being available to take on the burden of planning so that people can spend time on more important things, like family and friends. Increasing demand considering the rise in incomes, population, and need for interpersonal relations in the workplace.

Market Assessment
At RedHott, the edge of our services lies in our regular market research. Studying the customer requirements, identifying new way to cater market. And studying competition are the areas where we conduct regular market surveys and then base our new service launches on the research. Customer analysis at RedHott is done by identifying unique customer requirements and catering to them effectively. We value every client account and provide value addition to each.

Examining the General Market

Customer Analysis

RedHott is in a unique position of competition. We compete against hotels with conference facilities, conference centers. The industry is full of competition, rising competitive businesses is a potentional threat to RedHott. But with our policy of competitive pricing for each cliental, we can effectively cope with industry competitiveness.

Two major challenges faced by RedHott are rising competition. So one of our major strategic movie is continuous innovation in our services by either adding value to the service or launching an entirely new way of catering events. We also aim to provide competitive pricing to attract new cliental. The second major issue at RedHott is it being a new entrant in the event management industry and we aim to address this issue by having more industry experienced people as our assets and focus on quality with value addition for each of our service.

 SWOT ANALYIS OF OUR COMPANY WILL BE PRESENTED BY AGHA GUL ZAMAN

and

Strengths: Vegenza main strength is its highly committed and professional personnel. Our agency is located at on the most commercial areas of Karachi i.e. main Zamzama Commercial Street. This would give us the competitive edge over the agencies that are located in residential or improper locations. We are the one of the few event management companies who also provides their clients the best research facilities as well. We got one of the most prestigious vents on hand right now. This is a big achievement for newly established company like Vegenza. We provide a variety of packages to our customers at very competitive rates as compared to other competitive companies of our scale. We arrange one event at a time. This way we are able to give more attention to the event and the clients needs. This way as compared to our competitors error rate is low. Weaknesses: We still have a limited number of personnel. We need to diversify to other sectors as well to increase our horizon and exposure. We only have one branch right now and we are operating only in Karachi. Whereas Lahore is one of the biggest attractions for all kinds of events after Karachi. We need to expand

Karachi is one of the biggest business center of Pakistan. Plus if we look at the scenario in Pakistan then corporate sector is continuously expanding and so are their promotional activities. Which in turn means more work for the event planners. Media awareness and increasing competition has now encouraged the local organizations to also indulge in activities like press and media conferences, product launch ceremonies, lucky draw timings etc. There are few names of event planners that are recognized both at the local and the international level g Pegasus, PMC and ECG. So there is an opportunity for us to make a place in the market. Many of the small event management companies are either not recognized due to improper promotional activities or because they are not registered and are working informally with untrained and non professional staff. So if we provide professional service to our clients then we can make a place in the markets. Due to political stability in Pakistan FDI has increased in Pakistan. As a result more foreign companies are taking interest in puritan and after the building of EXPO center a lot of events are now been conducted at the corporate level for both local and foreign companies.

 There are some already established names in the market such as ECG and Pegasus. Pegasus also specializes in corporate event planning as well. So from this viewpoint we are facing a reasonable threat from such agencies. Plus client rarely switch from one agency to another. As a result it is difficult to attract the clients of the competitors. There has been an increasing trend towards forming an event management companies. So a number of competitors are entering in to the market daily. Some of the organizations due to their nature of business and increasing need for managing different events; have now established a separate department for event management themselves, e.g. DAWN group of Pakistan. Other competitors are offering a wide variety of services and cover a number of both private and corporate events.

OPERATIONAL PLAN Will Be Presented By Nadeem JAVED Qureshi

Layout One of the most critical points of a event management business is its location and layout of the office. RedHott is located in the middle of its main competitors. This is because we find it strategically favorable to locate in the competitive cluster. The layout of the office is divided into four partitions:

Reception & Waiting Area The reception desk is the first counter in the office and a few steps ahead are the waiting area where the clients will be seated. The waiting area has comfortable sitting for 8-10 people.

Discussion Room The clients will be taken from the waiting area to the discussion room by any member of the team. The discussion room has capacity for dealing with 3-4 clients at a time. Round tables and sofas are placed for providing a relaxed environment for discussion.

Multimedia Room The third partition of the office is the multimedia room. The multimedia room has all the necessary equipment i.e a multimedia projector with white screen on the wall and a fully loaded computer. There is a 10 seat conference table in the multimedia room. A plasma TV is also present in the room.

Partners Sitting The partners sitting is in the starting of the office. All the partners will be doing the table work at this place. The design of this room is the normal table chair office environment with computers of each partner.
