    Executive Summary

    Sapphire wallet is a new variety of item that will be out in the market. The idea of having

    a character wallet is what came up in our mind because of its uniqueness and the trending

    characters that we thought will suit our customers taste. This new item is targeting to reach the

    80% of the market size to teenagers. Our desire is to share in the market the creativity of our

    company and to be able to serve a new type of wallet that can satisfy the whole market structure.

    Another idea came to us that we must not focus on teenagers only; we provide different design,

    colors of felt and materials that can match the ages and personality of adults instead. So that

    there would be an opportunity for them to experience the trending item that we offer to market.

    Hence, our product will surely be enjoyed by everyone. This wallet is not the typical wallet that

    we used now a day, its very unique and it is made from a hard felt cloth and so it wont easily

    absorb dirt.

    the opportunity to show their skills, and knowledge in handling a business. During the event

    MAGAR de pacho successfully achieved their target sales. The company strictly followed what

    products to different location inside the campus of Holy Angel University to reach their target

    in front of Holy Angel University which is our main retail store. Other stores are located in

    different area of Pampanga. They also accept orders through phone calls or by visiting their

    website.

    Product History

    High competition in producing similar to our product is the main reason why we came up

    in the concept of developing a personalized items like Sapphire wallet because we realized if

    dont execute innovation in our product there is a possibility that would yield a lower level of

    demand in patronizing our product since the competition is continuing to escalate.

    By doing brainstorming in the group, sharing of ideas and the creativity talent of our member we

    actually able to make the idea concrete and furthermore by considering the changes in fondness

    that we experienced when we buying, we luckily capable to formulate the thought more concrete.

    Market Analysis

    The rapid increase of high school and college student population by 30% higher compare

    to the past school years who studying in the area Angeles City, it seems they are good to be our

    focus target market that can generate positive impact to our company. These groups of people are

    easy to attract by knowing their perception and behaviors in terms of buying especially the girls.

    Competitive Analysis

    Our direct competitors are the store located in Nepo mall who selling different kinds of

    item for teenagers, and even though the competition is high where we operate we take it as a

    opportunity to differentiate our product from other competitors instead of seeing it as a barriers

    to our success. We decided to use felt cloth for Sapphire wallet that serve as advantages from the

    other kind of wallet because this cloth wont easily absorb dirt that can maintain the outer look of

    our product attractive, and the different design that we have for our customers.

    SWOT ANALYSIS

    Strengths

    Great retail space that offers flexibility with a positive and attractive atmosphere. Excellent and stable staff. High customer loyalty. Good qualities of materials used.

    Weaknesses

    Challenge for fast production of our item. Little access to capital. Location is not in a heavily travelled area.

    Opportunities

    choices and processes.

    An opportunity to be able to satisfy the wants of our customers.Threats

    IMPLEMENTATION

    Product

    In the actual bazaar we absolutely complied with the specification of the product based

    on what we write in our marketing plan to make our work easy, so that we can properly handle

    the flow of our operation. During the event, our customers usually asked if we really made our

    product, and although we have competitor who offered same product in the bazaar we were able

    to captured our target market because of the several unique designs that we have. Buyers were

    focused on product quality, price, and different product designs which made us an asset for our

    goods to be sold promptly and we can declare that these things helps a lot to catch the attention

    of the potential buyers that our prospect.

    Price

    Consumers' opinion about pricing is important for us as it indicates how they value what

    they are looking for as well as what they want to pay. Our group decided to set our price based

    on the survey we took, which are Php40 and Php50. On our first day we followed the price

    indicated in the plan but during second day when we only having 2 hours left to sell our product

    we decided to offered buy two and get one free, and then buy1 take1, since we all know that we

    already achieved our target sales of P 10,000 two days and because we want to achieve our goal

    to sell all our product before the two days period given by our professor. The group decided to

    make some adjustment on our pricing strategy that persuaded the market to buy more because of

    our low price, thats why our products were all sold.

    16/24

    16

    Place

    During the two days bazaar we not only traded our product in the designated venue that

    they assigned, we decided to distribute our products in different locations inside the campus of

    Holy Angel University like in yellow canteen, pre-elem building, and in smh building where the

    high school are so that we can reach our target market. And it became more advantaged for our

    group to offered directly our product to customer than to wait to the customer to visit our booth

    because in that way we able to informed the people there that dont want to go outside their room

    that we offered wallet that have unique designs that they can avail at a lower price. Getting the

    right product to the right place at the right time create perfect distribution for us.

    Promotion

    Magar de pacho offer a freebie for the first 50 buyers which serve as an advantage to

    promote the product. It is our primary selling tool to accomplish our target aim. We also offer

    Buy One Get One Free where customers were encouraged to buy more; we decided to do it in

    our second day because in that time we were only having 2 hours left to sell our product and

    since we all know that we already attained our target sales for two days of P 10,000. We post our

    tarpaulin a day before in different location, it is our way to aware of the existence and

    availability of the product. Our promotional strategy provides information that assists the

    customers in making a decision to purchase our product. Though increased promotional activity

    is often a sign of a response to a problem such as competitive activity, it enables our group to

    develop and build up a succession.

    Learnings

    Marketing Bazaar was an amazing way to learn the real experience of being marketers for

    two days. With that event we were able to learn how to handle a business, how to use the

    different tactics in pricing and the most important is how to deal with our customers properly.

    We learned that business is all about managing your goods, taking care of your responsibility and

    the most important the accountability at the end of the bazaar. Through bazaar we also learned

    that earning money is not as easy as we expected. It is full of risk and as a team we experienced

    it because during the bazaar we have to promote our product and weve had a hard time doing it

    since before we dont really knew how to communicate our product to our target market. Before

    we were just customers and ignore the vendors in some malls, and now we are the one to do it

    and it feels like we are embarrassed because this time we are the one being ignored. From then

    we realize that we must appreciate the work of the sales ladies because its not that easy.

    As a group we need to improve our communication skills and improve our product by

    providing more personalized design and providing more freebies because the freebies is one

    factor that attracts our customers, and we need more preparation in organizing our booth.

    In order to reach our goals we need to follow our entire plan, and implement each activity

    with responsibility to be able to make sure that we can achieve our objectives in the right way.

    Recommendation

    Entering the industry is the feeling of anxious and excitement at the same time. Anxious

    because you feel like the product that you offer in the market might not hit it off and youll go

    home very exhausted yet the products were not sold out. Excitement because the fact that it is the

    first time that we manage our own business and we produced our own product. While we were in

    the industry we dont mind what other people say, whether we are very aggressive to earn money

    or whatever. The thing is that you enter the industry and you have the opportunity to give all the

    best that you can, so grab it! Cause at the end of the day when you didnt do it all, youll be the

    one to suffer because you were not able to practice it before. Another thing is that be kind to your

    customers, as the same saying goes customers are always right treat customers like kings and

    queens. If they have some demands let it be, because they are your primary stakeholders and they

    can have a big impact on your organization or team. And as a manager you have to be optimistic!

    Whatever plan you have in mind, you have to think that it will buzz to your customers dont ever

    think that it wont cause there can be a psychological effect on you and your product. Dont ever

    let negative vibes come in.
