Management and Operations

You Mug It operates first in the start-up capital gathered from the management team behind the
company. The team buys pens mugs from the supplier and then finds potential customers by
wortd of mouth and through social media, and takes their orders. The orders are sent to the artist
who would later on hand paint the mugs based on the customers' choice of names, design and
color. After the mugs are painted, it would later be brought to the house of a team member to
bake the mugs and let it cool for stability, and wrap it in a gift paper and ribbon afterwards. After
the completion, the orders are then put into bags and delivered to the customers (rain or shine).
The orders are delivered within three to five days after the customers place their orders. When
the orders are delivered, the payments are then received, and the money is added to the collective
capital to be used again for future orders.

4.0 Opportunity Analysis and Research

4.1 Industry Analysis (According to Porter's Five Forces)

Threat of New Entrant (Low to Medium Pressure)

* Due to the expanding mug businesses in social media such as Facebook, Instagram, and
Twitter, new potential threats could enter and decrease profitability.
* Potential customers could show strong preference to other products coming from other existing
companies

* Capital requirements could possibly effect the production and profitability

* Due to few personalized and hand painted mug businesses in the local market, there is a low
chance or possibility of having a competitor that offers the same product that could potentially
threaten the production

* Brand name is still developing; not yet well-known

Power of Suppliers (Medium to High Pressure)

* Since You Mug It deals with a specific mug supplier coming from a small market, supplies
could still cut short.

* Due to bulk buying and frequent ordering of supplies, mugs could possibly have a low product
quality.

* Since the packagings are bought from a small market, wrappers could possibly differ from each
other, and supplies could cut short.

* Suppliers could raise the price depending on its availability and season

Power of Buyers (Low to Medium Pressure)

* Strong buyers or bulk buyers could pressure the team to lower prices and improve product
quality
* Possible high price sensitivity because some of the buyers are students

* Absence or lack of substitute mugs in the market could indicate low buyer power

* Since mugs are commonly found at home, and this generation knows art and calligraphy well,
buyers could possibly be well educated regarding the product

Threat of Substitutes (Low Pressure)

* Although there are other mug companies or competitors in the local market, competitors who
does personalized hand painted mugs are rare to find.

* There could be possible substitute products that could be given at a cheaper price, yet, with less
choices.

* There could be possible substitute products that could be given with more choices and faster
production, but at an expensive price.

* Substitutes that offers a packaging that suits the occassion or season is rare to find.

Competitive Rivalry (Low to Medium Pressure)

* Since the company is selling and promoting their products through the Internet, competitors
could possibly show and offer the same products;
* But, since most of the customers come from the local area, competitors from other locations
will find it hard to sell their products.

* Competitors who offer the same delivery service are hard to find.

4.2 Environmental Analysis

Micro-Environment:

* Social Factors: Since we, the You Mug It team consists of students in this generation, we could
effectively and easily promote the product through the word-of-mouth and use social media
networks as well as a form of communicating device for potential customers.

* Customer Factors: "No customer, no business." Customer satisfaction will be a target of You
Mug It. The company can adjust and improve customer satisfaction from time to time through
constructive criticisms coming from customers or buyers.

* Supplier Factor: Suppliers always work as equal partner and building relationships according
to mutual trust. A mug or packaging supplier can satisfy a market function when he creates a
new relationship with customer and partners.

* Employee Factors: Since You Mug It is a team, each member, as well as the laborer always
work as equal partners in order to produce well and reach customer satisfaction on time.

Macro-Environment:

* Social Factors: Customers get to choose their own designs, names and phrases to be written or
painted on mugs which will be packaged well and delivered staright to their homes, and be able
to pay on the day of delivery; hassle-free online transactions.

* Technological Factors: Although new technologies could be used as good communicating


devices, our developing company still would not be able to afford easier and convenient printing
technologies that could be offered by other big companies.

* Environmental Factors: Because of the paper-like packaging, our company could help the
environment through anti-plastic productions unlike other companies that use plastics and other
non-environmental friendly materials for their products/packagings.

4.3 Competitive Analysis


You Mug It may have a lot of competitors (big and small; physical or online shops) established
already that may give similar products and offers, but it still stands firm among others especially
in Laguna where we could deliver products personally that comes with a great packaging fit to
any occasion, unlike any other local mug sellers.
