Executive Summary:
Modkid boutique (hereafter known as Modkid) is a design studio located in downtown
Bloomington specializing in high quality styled patterns, textiles and sewing books. Modkid has
been in business for ten years and is known for having quality products at affordable prices.
Modkid has many opportunities to gain awareness both locally and nationally as well as gaining
customers by expanding the business further.
This plan will help Modkid become well known and let the public know what it offers is
unique to not only the Bloomington-Normal area, but to customers worldwide and offers high
quality patterns for customers desired products. We want this to be the place people think of
when wanting unique patterns and textiles and also sewing books. We want the public to be

sewing books.
This plan is meant to review and analyze the organizations current practices, and to see
what it does well and where it needs to improve. Then, the potential for improvements as well as

Page 2 of 17

setbacks will be discussed. There are several objectives that we will suggest for Modkid
including:
A plan to increase the awareness of Modkid worldwide
Relocate to a smaller workspace to minimize expenses
Increase amount of people talking about Modkid through online mediums as well as word
of mouth
Create new customers and business by offering new and different products
This plan will be used as the guideline until November 1, 2016, in effort to achieve these
objectives. The organization and future employees and interns should be aware on this plan in
order to follow its basic structure. Its important that all employees understand this plan and have
their beliefs for the organization aligned with it. In the future, this plan can be used as a guide or
template to create a new model in the following year.

1.5 Organization Structure:


Since being created in 2005, Modkid has stayed relatively the same. It joined the online retail site
Etsy in 2008, and thats where the majority of pattern sales come from. It is currently licensed
with three major companies in the United States, and when working on collection Modkid
receives quarterly royalty payments from the company following the finished work. At times it
has employed interns or part-time assistants, but currently the owners dont see a need to expand
their workforce since they are comfortable with the roles they have now.
1.5.1 Owner (Patty Young)
Patty is the lead designer and works on patterns and products in her personal studio. She
responds to shipment requests and creates her patterns based on the demands of the industry as
well as her personal preferences.
1.5.2 Part-Time Owner (Jon Young)
Jon is Pattys husband and is in charge of the accounting, budgeting and distribution matters for
Modkid. Jon also updates the website and sends out the e-newsletters. He works full-time with a
different organization and only works part-time for Modkid.
1.5.3 Part time Virtual Assistant
This position is in charge of all social media accounts and blogging. While Modkid currently
does not have a part-time virtual assistant, the position is about ten hours per week when the
position is being utilized. Although this assistant has never met with Modkid owners personally,
they have a great relationship through shared passions.
1.5.4 Pattern Testers
At any given time, there are roughly ten pattern testers that Modkid uses whenever it has a new
design pattern. These testers arent paid and often take pictures and write reviews that Modkid
can use for their social media pages. Modkid has good relationships with these testers, and part
of its very high reputation for customer service and quality products come from getting excellent
reviews of the patterns. If the testers give the pattern a good review, it is essentially approved for
sale. If it has poor reviews or errors, Modkid will continue to work on the pattern before
finalizing it.
1.6 History and Culture:
Modkid doesnt have a location for direct resale; it operates online through its own website as
well as selling fabrics and designs to online sellers with dozens of US locations and in eight
different countries. Modkid is partially owned by a married couple and does not employ anyone
part time. Since opening in 2005, there have been 10 completed collections of fabrics and
designs
Patty Young grew up in San Jose, Costa Rica, where she was encouraged to express her
creativity freely. Both of her parents dabbled in the arts so it was only natural that she would
inherit their creative genes and pursue a career in the design industry. Patty moved to the United
States in 1987 and started attending the University of Central Florida. She graduated with her
Bachelors Degree in Fine Arts in Graphic Design and Photography. She would continue to
expand her design abilities for 12 years while working at many different marketing agencies

Page 4 of 17

before deciding to leave her corporate job in 2005 to stay at home with her children and pursue
her own creative endeavors.
Today, she owns and operates Modkid LLC as the lead designer. Her designs are inspired by all
things pretty and colorful. She has completed 16 collections of textiles, quilting cottons and
knits. In addition to her studio work, she has also completed a book with sewing and knit
patterns called Sewing Modkid Style. She is a licensed textile designer for Michael Miller
Fabrics, JoAnn Fabrics, and Riley Blake. Her designs can be purchased through more than 50
company websites in the United States as well as in eight countries worldwide.

2.0 Situation Analysis


Modkid faces several challenges as well as opportunities in its ever-changing market
environment. This section will go over its scope, the stakeholders affected by Modkids
decisions, examining the various levels of competition, and providing analysis of its strengths,
weaknesses, opportunities, and threats for the future success of the organization.
2.1 Definition & Scope of Situation
Modkids main focus is to sell sewing patterns, textiles, and sewing books. Modkid has ten
textiles collections, a variety of sewing patterns, and two sewing books. We want to make
Modkid the brand everyone chooses when they are sewing. Without a store location in the area, it
is hard to gain awareness since most awareness efforts would be online. While there is a strong
following on Facebook, there is a lot of room for increased awareness on hobby and design
focused social media websites like Pinterest, Etsy, Instagram and Tumblr. With the possibility of
expanding into a personal store or larger chain retailers, there could be a noticeable positive
impact on profits. While the target audience is primarily focused on clothing for young girls,
there is room to expand patterns and designs for boys and both women and men. We feel that
since the online competition is strong, Modkid has the opportunity to set itself apart from the
other pattern and style companies by doing these things.
2.2 Stakeholders Effected
The two owners, Patty and Jon, are the ones who provide financial backing for Modkid. There
are over 60 companies that sell its fabrics directly or from another seller. Patty and Jons children
are also affected based on the success of the company. Modkid has three major contracts with
fabric companies, sewing machine companies, and the testers who receive the patterns to review
them. The major companies that have contracts with Modkid are greatly impacted by its success.
The fabric and design testers could potentially lose the benefits of receiving patterns for free.
2.3 Competition
While there is no immediately strong competition to Modkid in the Bloomington-Normal area,
there is competition from all over the world. Competition is described as very strong,
moderate, and weak. Very strong competition poses a high threat to the success of Modkid
because it primarily sells similar goods online. The moderate competition represents the major
arts and crafts stores in the Bloomington-Normal area, which offer different products than
Modkid, but are seen as an alternative. Weak competition is described as small-scale arts and
crafts shops in the Bloomington-Normal area, which are similar to the chain stores, because they
offer different but potentially alternative products than Modkid.

Page 5 of 17

Very strong _ The strongest level of competition comes from the independently-owned
sewing companies like Modkid, who make custom patterns and designs, and sell online,
to stores, and distributors worldwide. Modkid has many competitors that operate online,
but none are local. Modkid owners consider two-to-300 different companies at any given
time serious competition. Since it is a relatively affordable business to startup, many
companies will appear suddenly and then fold just as quickly as they are created. Go To
Patterns, Angela Kane, and Burda Style all offer online print pdf patterns. These are some
companies that are major competition to Modkid, although it changes constantly.
Moderate - Although they dont pose a direct threat to Modkid, the major retail brand
stores such as JoAnn Fabrics, Michaels and Hobby Lobby offer alternative arts and
crafts. Modkid is licensed through JoAnn Fabrics but there are other similar companies
within JoAnn Fabrics stores that could be purchased instead. These large retail stores
offer several books and pamphlets with sewing designs and patterns and they could be
purchased instead of Modkid.
Weak - Although they are not direct competition in the area, there are several stores in the
Bloomington-Normal area that offer similar products. Those weak competitors are
Sewing Studio, Quilt and Fabric Fashion Store, Hancock Fabrics, Bolines LLC, Sew Into
It, and Wee Sew Shop. These shops do not offer custom made fabrics and therefore do
not pose much of a threat, but because they offer the minimalistic alternatives, these
competitors are a minor concern to Modkids success.

2.4 SWOT Analysis


This analysis of Modkids strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) shows
many different aspects on improvements, negatives and positives of the business,and restrictions.
The SWOT analysis presents individual aspects of Modkids strengths, weaknesses,
opportunities, and threats; the implications of each aspect on Modkids business; and the possible
actions that could be taken to address each SWOT aspect.

2.5 Market Positioning


Market positioning allows an organization to see how it compares to its competitors. It allows an
organization to conceptualize how its products or services are seen in the markets it serves. This
market position will show what Modkid does to differentiate itself among competition, its
strengths and weaknesses, how its perceived, the target customers, and competition and market
analysis. Since a detailed SWOT analysis is presented later, this section will focus on the general
strengths and weaknesses.

Differentiation is how Modkid sets itself apart from competitors. Modkid has survived a
constantly changing environment by priding itself on excellent customer service. It is
known by major retailers as well as Modkids competitors what organizations have good
or poor customer service in the industry. Modkid is constantly regarded as one of the best
in the world for quality responses in a timely manner. Not only is the quality of the
product always excellent, the customer service is excellent and that has allowed the
organization to thrive for many years while others have folded very quickly.
Strengths and Weaknesses are the things that continue to keep Modkid moving forward
and what it can work on. The quality of the product is error free every time. This is done
by extensive pattern testing through its trusted testers as well as starting with flawless
design. The product is so good that many other competitors will copy the design and
change it just slightly enough that it becomes legal for them to sell. A weakness to work
on is the general marketing strategy. Once the budget increases from changing to a more
affordable location, the possibilities for marketing will increase greatly.
Perception is how customers and people who come across Modkid perceive it. In the
industry it is perceived as a trusted and established organization with quality products.
There is some confusion in the local community. Many people think of Modkid as a retail
clothing store, based on the name and window display. Downtown Bloomington requires
a window design for stores and this creates confusion for window shoppers. Many people
do not understand that its strictly a studio, and not a retail location.
Target Customers are defined as who Modkid is trying to reach. The majority of the
audience is mothers or grandmothers with primarily granddaughters but also grandsons.
There are much more women interested in the field of sewing, and this is why most of the
patterns are designed for girls.
Competition and Market Analysis Shows that based on Modkids ability to establish itself
globally, it is doing well compared to the competition. Its competition will gradually
come and go, because those other organizations either dont have the capital to sustain the
cost, of the quality of product is very poor.

3.0 Plan
The plan section provides details for the actions moving forward for Modkid starting November
1, 2015, and ending November 1, 2016. This section looks to guide Modkid in fulfilling their
mission and vision while giving it the tools and references for a successful year. The following
subsections include objectives, strategies, and tactics; critical success factors; key performance
indicators; budget and resource allocations; an implementation timeline; and final evaluation and
anticipated results.

mediums as well as word of mouth by
45% in the next eight months

always use marketing a little bit
more, but with their small budget,
utilizing low-cost social media and
word of mouth is critical.)

Increase content on
already popular
Instagram page
Utilize share to win
posts so the page
appears on the
homepages of friends
who follow

(Benchmark: Keep track of comments


about Modkid online and research to
see what people are saying about
Modkid.)

by 10% in the next 12 months.

Increase likes and


follows on Facebook,
Pinterest, website &
blog, and Instagram

products to meet more clients as well
as introduce completely new
products)

Increase the amount of


designs posted on
Pinterest and Facebook
Enter the technology
industry by making
designs for smartphone
and laptop cases

3.3 Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)


KPIs are calculable measurements that show the critical success factors for Modkid. Each
objective measurement the owners will compare to the benchmarks.

Objective 1- Increase the awareness of Modkid worldwide by 25% in the next six
months.
o Benchmark: Record customers shares, likes and follows on the different social
media platforms. Record information every month for the next six months and
compare information at the end.
o KPI: Awareness should increase by 4% every month when Modkid is posting and
keeping people up to date.
Objective 2 - Relocate to a smaller and more affordable location in the next 12 months
o Benchmark: Search for the most reasonable places to rent every month and after
researching those findings, narrow it down and move to the new location.

Page 12 of 17

o KPI: Finding 3 new potential properties every month should increase the
likeliness of finding a new location for Modkid.
Objective 3- Increase amount of people talking about Modkid through online mediums as
well as word of mouth by 45% in the next eight months.
o Benchmark: Keep track of comments about Modkid online and research to see
what people are saying about Modkid.
o KPI: Talk about Modkid should increase 6% every month as Modkid continues to
engage in the world online and offline.
Objective 4-Create new customers and business by 10% in the next 12 months.
o Benchmark: Modkid needs to keep new customers engaged and up to date and
record whenever there is a new customer or business for Modkid.
o KPI: New customers and business should increase by at least 2% every couple of
months.

3.4 Budget and Resource Allocation


Modkid has been in existence for ten years and most of the immediate startup costs have been
long paid off. Its current location is a former Borders store, and the furniture was purchased at a
discount price. Modkid saves money by having great relationships with retailers. In its contracts
with major fabric companies, it receives the first roll of fabrics for free, as well as having two
sewing machines that cost several thousands of dollars at no cost. All of its customers pay for
their own shipping and handling. Modkid has several design testers, who do not get paid but
dont have to pay for the pdf design. These testers often do their own reviews as well as
photography of the final product that Modkid uses on its social media pages. The current major
expenses are the monthly rent and utilities which is about $1,750 per month, and a subscription
to the Adobe Creative Suite which is $49.99 per month.
Since Patty is her own boss, many of the labor costs are already on her own personal
time. Many of the objectives were designed specifically to be cheap or at no cost, since its a
small business with a tight budget to work with. Traditional ways to increase awareness and
customers wouldnt benefit Modkid that much since they are a global company that focuses
primarily online with its customers. Modkid is not currently making enough money to add
another assistant, but is interested in offering potential interns for class credit in the spring.
3.5 Timeline
For Modkid to continue being a successful business, a timeline is necessary to help Modkid see
how they will measure the tactics to see if awareness, relocating, discussion on social media, and
new customers increase throughout the year. (See Appendix D for the timeline). Complete an
evaluation throughout the months to see how the plan is working out. Recording benchmarks are
very beneficial when trying to measure the success of the business.
3.6 Evaluation and Anticipated Results
To see whether the plan of action was successful, Modkid will have to evaluate the attempts. See
section 3.3 for KPIs and benchmarks.
Objective 1: Increase the awareness of Modkid worldwide by 25% in the next six
months.
o If by the end of the six months awareness worldwide has increased by 25% the
plan was successful.
Page 13 of 17

o If the plan was not successful, Modkid needs to adjust the plan for the next six
months to increase awareness worldwide.
Objective 2Relocate to a smaller and more affordable location in the next 12 months.
o If Modkid relocated within six months then this plan was successful.
o If Modkid was unable to relocate in 12 months then they need to continue looking
and find a new location within the next year.
Objective 3: Increase amount of people talking about Modkid through online mediums as
well as word of mouth by 45% in the next eight months.
o If by the end of the next eight months the amount of people talking about Modkid
has increased by 45% then the plan was successful.
o If the plan did not reach 45% by the end of the eight months the Modkid needs to
become more engaging and active online in the next eight months.
Objective 4: Create new customers and business by 10% in the next 12 months.
o If by the end of the next 12 months Modkid has gained more customers and
business by 10% the plan was successful.
o If the plan did not meet a 10% increase in 12 months then Modkid needs to adjust
the plan for the next 12 months.

With this plan, success is expected. The objectives provide an understanding way for the owners
to help accomplish the plan. If the plan begins to not meet the KPIs, corrections and adjustments
must be made in order to be successful for the next year.

Job Descriptions

Lead Designer-This position is in charge of all things creative for the company. Modkids budget

well right now creatively and that bringing in someone else isnt necessary.
Accountant-In charge of all things related to expenses and distribution. This position oversees
purchases and expenses of the organization.
Pattern Testers-Modkid typically uses about 12 testers across the United States for collection
designs. These testers are strategically selected based on their history with the organization, their
ability to review and analyze the designs for errors, and if they can contribute to a specific size
requirement. Since Modkid prides itself on excellent customer service, it makes sure that their
testers are spread out throughout the various sizes of patterns they offer.
Virtual Assistant-This position primarily makes posts on social media accounts and works on the
website blog. Moving forward, this position may want to focus on keeping accounts updated,
even if some of the platforms are slowly becoming less used by the customer.
