month (maximum average salary, actual maximum is higher).

Feasibility Analysis:
Feasibility analysis is the process of determining if a business idea is viable before spending
resources on it. Most entrepreneurs do not conduct a feasibility analysis before launching their
ventures. Feasibility analysis has four components:
Product/service feasibility
Industry/target market feasibility
Organizational feasibility
Financial feasibility
After recognizing the gap in the market, we developed an idea and to execute the idea we
needed to conduct a survey that whether the services we are going to offer are attrtactive for
our market or not. There is no point of offering services which does not attract the potential taget
customers. The business will fail with a huge loss.
We choose the primary method for the survey and from the primary research we concluded that
the services we are going to offer in the market are attractive to our target market. The services
we want to offer were appealing for the audience.
Product/Service Desirability
The first component of product/service feasibility is to affirm that the proposed product or
service is desirable and serves a need in the marketplace. You should ask the following
questions to determine the basic appeal of the product or service:
Does it make sense? Is it reasonable? Is it something consumers will get excited about?
Does it take advantage of an environmental trend, solve a problem, or fill a gap in the
marketplace?
Is this a good time to introduce the product or service to the market?
Are there any fatal flaws in the product or service’s basic design or concept?
The proper mind-set at the feasibility analysis stage is to get a general sense of the answers to
these and similar questions, rather than to try to reach final conclusions.
Product/Service Demand
A buying intentions survey is an instrument that is used to gauge customer interest in a product
or service. It consists of a concept statement or a similar description of a product or service with
a short survey attached. The statement and survey should be distributed to 20 to 30 potential
customers (people who completed the concept statement test should not be asked to complete
this survey). Each participant should be asked to read the statement and complete the survey.
How likely would you be to buy the product or service described above, if we make it?
How much would you be willing to pay for the product or service?
Where would you expect to find this product or service for sale?
It is an assessment of the overall appeal of the industry and the target market for the product or
service being proposed. There is a distinct difference between a firm’s industry and its target
market, which should be clearly understood. An industry is a group of firms producing a similar
product or service, such as computers, children’s toys, airplanes, or social networks. A firm’s
target market is the limited portion of the industry that it goes after or to which it wants to appeal.
Most firms’ start-ups typically do not try to service their entire industry. Instead, they select or
carve out a specific target market and try to service that market very well. For feasibility analysis
the entrepreneurs should consider the following issues:
Industry attractiveness
An industry that is growing is more attractive because it is more receptive to new entrants and
new product introductions. The most attractive industries are characterized as the following:
Being large and growing (with growth being more important than size). Being important to the
customers. These markets sell products or services that customers “must have“ rather than
“would like to have“ .We will follow the same concept of what our customers must have rather
than we would like to have, the customer will be considered the king in our organization and so
we would treat our customers like one.
Financial feasibility analysis is the final stage of the feasibility analysis. A quick financial
assessment is sufficient because the business environment will evolve. The most important
issues to consider are: capital requirements, financial rate of return, overall attractiveness of
investment. Capital requirements. We should assess the feasibility of raising enough money to
fund the capital requirements for the business. New firms need money for hiring employees,
office or manufacturing space, equipment, training, research and development, marketing. At
the feasibility analysis stage it is not necessary for this number to be exact.
Marketing Plan
We will market our company through a three pronged approach. One prong is the distribution of
a color brochure detailing our services. The distribution of this document will be targeted to hit
our chosen segment. This will be done by setting up strategic relationships with organizations
whose members fit our targeted customer profile. We will gain access to organizations through
deals where the club owners will receive our services for themselves to test the quality so they
then feel comfortable with helping us by being a "cheerleader" for our service.
The second prong of our approach will be through word of mouth referrals. We will offer an
economic incentive) to our customers if they bring in new business for us. We believe this will
be effective because the financial incentive will motivate their behavior, and people naturally like
to share good things with their friends.
Our third and final prong is our Social Media Strategy. We will be on Twitter, listening to our
customers as well as letting them know about our promotions. We will be on Facebook and
Linked in with reviews and some environmentally safe "do it yourself" home cleaning remedies.
This will let our customers get to know our employees in other circumstances than trying to get
their business.
Sales Plan
The sales process will begin through the qualification of leads generated from our marketing
campaign. The marketing campaign will primarily generate leads through interest sparked from
our brochures. Someone will call to receive more information about our service, while we will be
able to give them an estimate over the phone, we would prefer to be able to get into their home
and speak with them. On one hand we would be able to offer them a more accurate estimate.
More importantly however, it provides us an opportunity to impress them with our company. We
feel confident that since we are dealing with the affluent, who for many services are less price
sensitive, are more likely to be impressed with our professionalism, "feel" an immediate trust
bond forming, and sign up for the service.
For those clients whom we are only able to speak with over the phone, we will initially quote
them a price. Because they are less price sensitive then the general population. Our Cleaning
Service will explain all of the different training systems and methodologies that each employee
goes through, and what expectations are reasonable for the customer to form about our
superior service. This conversation will leave the prospective customer the impression that our
mission is indeed different from the run of the mill residential cleaning services and that the
price differential is justified.
Lastly, we will be qualifying the leads by explaining up front that our service is more expensive.
This is not a fact that we are trying to hide. We are setting up an expectation for the customer
that they can indeed expect more with our service. This "angle" is based on the assumption that
many people are not thrilled with their current cleaning service. Sure they clean adequately, but
there is not a trust bond formed as if you had the same house cleaner for 20 years who helped
raise your children. This is how we will differentiate ourselves and ultimately win over new
customers.
The key to success in the cleaning industry is human resources, people. Recruiting, hiring,
training and supervising staff and also developing management, supervision talent in house. We
feel the best way to grow and sustain it long term is by developing our cleaners into supervisors.
Each lead person is creating the next lead person. Trying to hire supervisor’s from other
cleaning businesses comes with a lot of challenges, some have bad habits to begin with that are
difficult to change. Also run the risk they quit after a short time and have information about the
internal workings of the business and client lists, training material etc.
Training and supervision will be key success factors. The challenge In the cleaning business is
employees are working at the customers location, mainly unsupervised on an hour by hour
basis. This is why hiring the right people in the first place is so critical and then getting them in a
routine through training.
We will create a culture of everyone sticking together and supporting each other. With 90% of
the workforce working remotely it becomes important we communicate with each other on a
regular basis and trust each other.
