EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
As Vietnam is a potential market for vehicles, First Move Group (FMG) Joint Stock
Corporation decides to launch a new product that is completely made in Vietnam. The
new type of electronic bicycle - Vievélo contains a unique combination of the original
character of a bicycle and advanced technology for a new modern life. Although the e-
bike market in Vietnam has a variety of mature competitors, we believe Vievélo can
effectively compete with other e-bike brands thanks to those innovations. We are
targeting specific segments in consumer markets, catching the insight, and trying to meet
the demand of Vietnamese consumers who have enormous concern about both
environment and convenience in transport.
The core marketing objective is to achieve a first-year Vietnam marker share of 5% with
unit sales of 100. Besides, the primary financial objectives are to achieve first-year sales
revenues of 1 960 000 000, first-year losses to less than […], and break-even early in the
second year.
Our Marketing plan structure consists of:

1.3. Introduction about Vbros Project and Vievélo E-bike


About VBROS Project, this is a smart electric power-assisted bicycle
(E-Bike) project developed by First Move Group Joint Stock Company
(FMG), to meet the global transition to the phase of reducing natural
energy, traffic, and increasing responsibility among consumers to the
living environment. The goal of the VBROS Project is to bring optimal
products for the trend of healthy, active, effective, and emotionally balanced living when
using E-bike to transit in the near future, promoting the value of sustainable living
through three fields: economy, environment, and community.
On the afternoon of April 27, 2021, FMG officially kicked off the smart electric power-
assisted bicycle project, called VBROS. E-Bike was debuted with partners, customers,
social media in the event called "E-Bike: Healthy solutions for urban mobility", which
took place at Deutsches Haus building in Ho Chi Minh City.

Vievélo E-bike was also debuted in this event. Vievélo is a stylish, user-
friendly e-bike, which is completely manufactured and assembled in
Vietnam, under strict quality control and management by the project
management team.

CHAPTER 2: SITUATION ANALYSIS
2.1. Market summary
• Overview about vehicle market in Vietnam recently:
The motorcycle market has difficulties because of new options appear (for instance
electric vehicles) and saturation.
(PricewaterhouseCoopers, 2020), the motorbike market in Vietnam has been
declining, with sales down roughly 4% in 2019 compared to last year. Due to
saturation and the impact of COVID-19, sales in the first quarter of 2020 were 3%
lower than the same period of the previous year.
In the midst of saturation, competition from other two-wheeler manufacturing businesses
is increasing.
(PricewaterhouseCoopers, 2020), Vin Group launched its new two-wheeler lines
with a flurry of advertisements and events to drum up interest in the new products.
(Vinfast)
COVID -19 has caused a temporary fall in the four-wheeler market, as well as an increase
in the consumption of used motorbikes.
The Vietnamese government has indicated that it intends to revise Decree
116/2017 on the conditions for the production, assembly, import, and commerce of
vehicle warranty and maintenance services, eliminating several laws that apply to
auto imports. This will allow for more efficient vehicle imports, increasing the
supply of old automobiles while decreasing the demand for new ones.
Vietnamese government laid down the new policy of zoning and restricting motorbikes in
the inner city to reduce traffic congestion and environmental pollution, towards limiting
the operation of motorbikes in the inner city by 2030.
“The roadmap that we are building will implement the restriction of motorbikes
step by step, route by route, region by region. Roads and areas that meet the
conditions for infrastructure development and public passenger transport to meet
the travel needs of the people will limit the operation of motorbikes.”
– Mr. Vu Van Vien (Director of Hanoi Department of Transportation).

2.2. Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threat Analysis


In our marketing plan, we use the S.W.O.T metric to analyze a business's competitive
situation and build strategic planning

6
Strengths
S1: Products have advanced technology –It contains a safety mode for users and
automatically stops charging when the battery is full. Assembly technology comes
from Germany, which gives out a higher quality.
S2: Superior index - Speed limit can reach out 35 km/h, which is higher than a typical
e-bike in the Vietnam market; the maximum distance per charge is 100 km.

Weaknesses
W1: Lack of brand awareness - Vievélo is little known and mentioned on social media
about e-bike brands in the Vietnam market.
W2: Few distributors – It does not have many existing distributors which cannot help
the Vievélo electric bike to cover the marketplace along with some new distributors.
W3: High price – When compared to other e-bike brands like Asama, HT, Vievélo has
a much higher price (due to having advanced technology from Germany and trendy
design)
Opportunities
O1: The demand for an electric bike is growing rapidly.
O2: Vietnamese people tend to be loyal to domestic brands.
O3: The Vietnamese government is facilitating the development of green transport for
major cities in the country.
Threats
T1: Mature market in Vietnam – There are a variety of local or Japanese e-bike brands
who entered this market before us for a while.
T2: COVID-19 and Government directives about quarantines and lockdown – This
may result in a decrease in the number of units sold during this period due to a lack of
demand

3.5. Strategies
3.5.1. Product
A Human-Electric hybrid bicycle, also known as an e-bike, is a bicycle with an electric
motor used to power the vehicle or to assist with pedaling and use rechargeable batteries.
The human-electric hybrid bicycle may best be described as 'human power augmented' as
in blending human and motor power. Herein lies its uniqueness, utility, and exceptional
10
riding enjoyment. While e-bikes are ridden by cyclists of all ages, on many different rides
and routes, and for different purposes. This is a relatively new kind of bicycle for those of
us who enjoy pedaling.
Vievélo is a domestic eBike manufactured and assembled in Vietnam, similar in
appearance to a regular bicycle. But in fact, Vievélo owns 3 running modes including a
mechanical pedal, electric power pedal, and fully electric. Vievélo is not dependent on
electric energy like electric motorbikes, when the battery runs out, you can still pedal
Vievélo very lightly and glide quickly because of the levels to support the change of
chains and convenient pedaling force.

PHYSICAL RIDING: When the power runs out, the e-bike is still light and runs
on the ferry, not dependent on the battery. Those who like coordinated movement
can adjust the cascade, fully control the pedaling power according to their
condition just like a regular bicycle.
ELECTRICAL-ASSISTED RIDING: When you start pedaling, the power assist
sensor will power on to assist with lighter and faster pedaling. This is the most
battery-saving mode and helps to have a longer distance, faster speed, stronger
battery with the ability to operate up to 80-100 km per full charge.
FULLY ELECTRICAL RIDING: This mode helps you climb bridges, climb
slopes with less effort, or when stuck in traffic, walking in the sun can switch the
power button to ride long less sweat.

3.5.2. Price
The price of our product will be 19,600,000 VND. At the launch of the product, there will
be no discount, this will help out to maintain and preserve the prestige and value of the
product.
There will be no hidden cost and the net price will be given to ensure it is presentable and
easily understood by the customer. The price of the e-bike is to be set by considering
certain market aspects.
Price: 19,600,000 VND ~ 852$
Fix cost Part
10,000$ ~ 230,000,000 VND Battery

Table 35.2: Price list of a Vievélo E-Bike

(Data reference from: )

Certain marketing aspects such as:


• Non-Price Competition: As e-bikes are not e-bike are no longer strange and rare
products in the Vietnamese market. The range of e-bikes ranges from 8,000,000 -
20,000,000 VND. As the Vievélo e-bikes can not only get you to your workplace
it can double as an exercise bike when you get home. So as compared to other
models in the present market, there is no such product serving 19 million VND in
the Vietnamese market.
• Matching with competitor pricing strategy: It also matches the competitor’s price
in the market and provides more benefits at the same price. Matching competitor’s
price gives the advantage to create a remarkable position not only in the market
but also in consumers’ insight. Balancing the price with the competitor’s product
creates a platform to compare the available products in the market and makes even
easier product selection for consumers.

3.5.3. Distribution
Distribution refers to how your customer acquires the product. This includes the actual
place it is purchased from the shop, the telephone, the web page, the warehouse as well as
the actual route of distribution. The e-bikes can be sold in
• All FMG motorcycle showrooms: There are about 15 FMG dealers in Vietnam.
• The platforms like expos, trade shows, consumer fairs, and new distributors can be
used for sales. In Vietnam, there are a lot of online dealers contributing to the
major number of sales.
• We also associate with the E-commerce website Tiki. Tiki in consumers’ view is a
platform that has a very strict product censorship policy, Tiki is very trusted by
users. Thereby, a collab with Tiki is an opportunity for Vievélo to position itself as
a high-quality brand.
3.5.4. Marketing Communication
We plan to create a campaign called "Greening mobility" by creating a drawing contest
and composing music related to urban greening. The ambassadors for this campaign are
Helly Tong and Miss H'Hen Niê, two leading celebrities representing sustainable
lifestyles in Vietnam today. At the same time, 10% of the profits generated through the
sale of e-bikes in the campaign will be contributed to the Economic, Environmental, and
Community development fund of First Move Group.
3.5.4.1. Advertising
• Vievélo can install various billboards in anticipation of its store in Ho Chi
Minh city and Ha Noi within the near vicinity of the location of the retail store.
• Other advertising means would be to produce TVCs or a television ad, as
well as a radio advertisement to have a greater reach to increase awareness in the
market.
14
3.5.4.2. Sales Promotion
• 30% discount for each Vievélo e-bike for the first 100 customers when pre-
ordering during the program period.
• Get a promotional voucher for 50% of POC helmets included when buying
Vievélo e-bikes during the program period.
• Below-the-line strategies such as flyers and posters would also be
circulated in select areas in both Ho Chi Minh and Hanoi to promote the brand.
3.5.4.3. Public Relations and Publicity
• Vievélo could hold a general press conference before launching its
campaign for media coverage. Press kits could be included as well.
• Another strategy would be partnering with various businesses by having
articles published in clients’ trade journals.
3.5.4.4. Online and Social Media Marketing
• Search engine advertising would be implemented to increase the search
ranking of Vievélo. Some examples of keywords to be purchased are green
vehicles, sustainable mobility, healthy and dynamic lifestyle, sustainability in
urban.
• Green celebrities, bloggers, and social media influencers should be tapped
to create content and share content as well with the Vietnamese public.
• Media support articles from environmental NGOs.
3.6. Marketing Mix
Below is our product life-cycle growth stage. We believe Vievélo can last longer in
practice. However, in a basic way, we estimate the life-cycle in 15 months, from January
2022 to March 2023.

Graph 3.6: Vievélo product life-cycle growth stage

15
• Quarter 1, 2022: Product Development Phase - Research, basic marketing
communication, and innovation Vievélo.
Although Vievélo has been debuted in 2021, it didn't live up to our expectations.
Therefore, we decided to use the first quarter of 2022 to re-research the market; retest,
and improve our product.
About marketing communication, to avoid being forgotten by existing customers, which
may lead to elimination from the market, we will launch basic communication articles on
environmental issues or our innovative features of existing Vievélo on our Facebook fan
page, blog, and upload videos on our Youtube channel.
• Quarter 2, 2022: Introduction Phase – Depricing Strategy and Mass Promotion
During the New Introduction phase, we focus on promoting the production of products as
well as some additional products (such as helmets, bicycle protective gear)
We also offer campaigns related to discounts for customers who have pre-ordered or
bought directly first.
In particular, most of the budget in this period is used for communication. We will
organize conferences, fairs as well as increase advertising on road banners, buses, and
magazines.
• Quarter 3 + Quarter 4, 2022: Growth & Mature Phase – Specific campaign
for both product and social channel.
During this period, we will focus on implementing some specific marketing
communication campaigns like hiring Influencers, participating in organizing or
sponsoring some environmental contests, keeping track with our Media Ambassador -
Helly Tong to raise brand awareness as well as contributing to the community's influence
on environmental awareness.
In addition, we also continue to improve the products’ quality and the customer service.
We also give out Vievélo with diverse colors. Vievélo will strengthen relationships with
the e-commerce platform - Tiki.
• Quarter 1, 2023: Decline Phase
We expect that we will stop manufacturing products during this time. But we will post
media articles about user experience in the year 2022. We want to hear feedback from
consumers as well as raise the belief of potential customers through reviews and
feedbacks.
Besides, two scenarios occur during this phase:

16
Exceeded KPI on the number of products sold in the market => We continue to
research the market in 2023 and give out the announcement of pre-order for the
next quarters.
Not reaching the KPI => We have to deprive all the leftovers to sell all of them.
3.6. Market Research
We are on the path of a global shift in the transition from using gas-powered vehicles to
non-emission electric power from now to 2030. Unfortunately, automobile emissions are
the second-largest contributor to greenhouse gas, especially in developing countries like
Vietnam. Vietnam ranks fourth in Southeast Asia with a culture of using two-wheelers.
Wheels move in urban areas, with an average sale of 3,000,000 vehicles annually.
However, the transition to electric vehicles is still facing problems with charging stations
as well as vehicle performance. E-Bike is the solution to the problems raised, suitable for
road and weather conditions in Vietnam.
This zero CO2 emission mobility is certainly a head-turner that is stolen from the future,
which efficiently converts the human force to the proposed force. This e-bike is a half
bicycle and half motorbike and there is no accelerator like the usual electric bikes. One
needs to pedal to move forward, the quicker we pedal the faster it goes.

17
CHAPTER 4: FINANCIAL PROJECTION
4.1. Revenue, expense calculation
In total, we have
• Fixed cost: 437,000,000 VND
• Variable cost: 14,490,000 VND per unit
In the first year, we decide to invest 1,7 billion VND for the whole plan (from developing
existing and future products, to cost for advertising and risks).
The reason we choose that number is that:
As can be seen in part 4.2, our break-even point is the volume of sale 86 units, with the
expected revenuesales, is 1.685.600.000. So, in the first year, if follow this marketing
plan, we do not receive any profits until quarter 2/2023. But that’s is the most convenient
plan for both our brand and our budget.
4.2. Break-even analysis
We have:
𝑭𝒊𝒙𝒆𝒅 𝒄𝒐𝒔𝒕
𝑩𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒌 − 𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒏 𝒑𝒐𝒊𝒏𝒕 =
(𝑼𝒏𝒊𝒕 𝒔𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒑𝒓𝒊𝒄𝒆 − 𝒗𝒂𝒓𝒊𝒂𝒃𝒍𝒆 𝒄𝒐𝒔𝒕 𝒑𝒆𝒓 𝒖𝒏𝒊𝒕)

𝟒𝟑𝟕,𝟎𝟎𝟎,𝟎𝟎𝟎
= (𝟏𝟗,𝟔𝟎𝟎,𝟎𝟎𝟎−𝟏𝟒,𝟒𝟗𝟎,𝟎𝟎𝟎) = 85,51 ~ 86 (unit)

→ Besides researching and developing a new marketing plan for the new version of
Vievélo E-bike for the year 2023, we still follow this plan for the existing version.
→ The profitable point of Vievélo is after selling the 87th unit and it will start at the
beginning of quarter 3, 2023.

18
CHAPTER 5: IMPLEMENTATION & CONTROL
5.1. Implementation
We're putting in place strict control procedures to keep a close eye on quality and
customer service satisfaction. As a result, we will be able to respond rapidly to any
difficulties that may arise. Monthly sales (by segment and channel) and monthly costs are
two more early warning signals that will be watched for indicators of deviation from the
plan.
The table below will outline specific activities and KPIs for each quarter:
