DYELI DYELI Business Plan 2 PDF
DYELI DYELI Business Plan 2 PDF
1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The team opted to start a food-related business as it is the most appropriate and flexible type
of business as we were also attending our other classes during the time. We recently decided to
change our brand name from ‘Taste Buddies’ to the actual pronunciation of the word ‘jelly’ and
doubling the name making it catchier when said, we get DYELI DYELI. Dyeli dyeli will not just be
offering jelly-based drinks but also snacks that goes along with the flavors of the drinks. Additionally,
the need for a variety of snacks and drinks was lacking in our chosen locale which was in Bicol
University Daraga Campus as well as around the Daraga to Legazpi City area. We mainly cater to
students, university staffs, neighbors and acquaintances.
The implementation od this business plan shall be working towards continual improvement
and growth in every aspect stated in this document.

4 CUSTOMER ANALYSIS
Age: primarily 18 - 22 years old; some younger and older (in other locations)
Income Level: (Allowance, in case of students) estimated amount of 100 pesos and up
Placing more importance on a particular market such as our fellow student is the number
one priority since we are nearer, and it is beneficial for both.
Considering that we are a food a beverage business, quality and price should be
appropriate for the customers – mostly students studying in the university. Quality should be
not be too good or too bad, it should sit somewhere in the middle. However, price should be
noticeably cheaper or at least ‘student friendly,’ taking into account the everyday expenses of
an ordinary student. Another point to consider but is not of much importance when compared
to the first two is the design or packaging, as long as it catches the eye of any potential customer
and is convenient for them then that is good enough.

Learning from the business’ own competitors shall be incorporated into the marketing
mix as it encompasses every aspect of the business especially if both have a similar product. It
is true that the business can learn a thing or two especially in the marketing aspect of the
business as well as the day to day operations. From an observer’s point of view, we can only
know so much by observing our competitors because anything beyond that can be a violation of
some laws. Continual improvement is definitely the way to go as it promotes change in every
aspect that is needed at the right timing.

Legends:
Dyeli dyeli has a unique position which is situated between the two other dots. Having
this unique position tells us that we are on the average of the three competitors, not too high of
a quality and has just the right amount for pricing the products we offer. However, there is an
overlap with Competitor 1 and 2. This means that they are equal in both attributes when
compared to the other. This also means that the quality and price of their products is similar
with each other. But this also shows that the other competitor has an advantage over our
business. Moreover, we are above the other two competitors which means we have a
competitive advantage over them.

with an everyday budget accordingly, a cheaper price would be most suitable for them.
Moreover, the quality is still of good quality because we want to satisfy their needs and wants
in way of the quality at an affordable price which they will surely be coming back each and every
time. These two attributes are what determines their purchase, so it makes great sense that we
focused more on these two.

7 OPERATIONS PLAN
RAW INGREDIENTS
EQUIPMENT
For the duties and responsibilities of each member, refer to page 3 of this business plan
under Company Description chapter, 2.3 entitles The Management Team.
For every product, a recipe was developed according from different sources and
according to a survey initiated initially by the team. The ingredients are sourced from well -
14
known shops with a cheap price but of good quality. The production also consists of testing the
Page
product’s taste. Answering the questions – does it taste good or could it be better? After the
actual production of the products comes the quality control which includes a final inspection of
the finished product. Packaging the product is the next step which comprise of properly
handling the packaging, in this case, plastic cups, bottles and paper plates. As well as designing
the packaging to be both convenient and creative. The last step of the production process would
be to distribute or sell the products to the customers, both new and old. Moreover, potential
customers are also welcome and very much appreciated.
Setting a quota for each product on each week of the business is a very simple indicator
to take note of especially when we really need to manage our time well, as both a student and
an entrepreneur. The maximum percent at which the quota is set needs to be met and
maintained for the business to be efficient and profitable.
A performance indicator specific for our type of business is the marketing related sales,
as we do not have a physical shop, social media and the internet is going to be a critical part of
our business. This is also because our target market is a frequent visitor of the internet in
general. Another one is efficiency of progress as we wanted the business to start small and
continue to grow in the following weeks. Introducing different flavors at a time and upgrading
current products make the customers expectant and curious and this can clearly show the
growth of the business. Will it strive or will it be the cause of downfall? These indicators exist
for the sole reason of answering these if-questions and will determine the end result which will
either be a positive one or a negative one.
As the food and beverage industry is a very sensitive one, quality control is very
important in this field. That is why, we see to it that in the process of producing each a nd every
product, there will always be inspections before sending the products out for distribution. We
place great importance in the consistency of the quality of the product. Compliance is a must do
especially with sanitary permits and such which is anot her aspect of quality control.

There is a number of potential problems that may arise in the food and beverage industry
and the most serious would be spoilage or the life span of certain products. Because as we all
know, food spoils and when it does, loss is always the end result which is bad for any business.
It is definitely something we need to have preventive measures on because time management is
essential for us student-entrepreneurs. Another potential problem would be the rapid change
in trends and cost of ingredients in the marketplace as the economy grows or is in state of
inflation and such. A great preventive measure for this one would be to a lways monitor and
observe the current trends and challenges in the industry beforehand and make decisions
accordingly.

8 MARKETING STRATEGY
The pricing strategy is solely dependent on the cost of production plus markup. If there
is a change in the expenses incurred by a particular product, then the price of that product is
more likely to be directly affected. This type of pricing strategy is called Cost -plus pricing and
we also integrated into the pricing strategy another type which was the competitive pricing
where we set the price based on what the competition charges. We are certain that with the
combination of these two pricing strategies, customers will be loyal to us compared to our
competitors. After all, both parties will benefit from this transaction as they acquire a good
quality product in exchange for a cheaper price than others and we will be getting profit from
them purchasing the product and hopefully stay in the market as long as it can accommodate us.
We mainly focused on the needs of our potential customers when thinking about what
to produce and that is a product most appropriate for the weather in the locality as well as
something that will fit their everyday budget. We are working towards a customer -focused
business where customers are encouraged to make suggestions in order for the business to truly
give the customer the satisfaction that they expect. This will be achieved by conducting real time
surveys from actual customers and potential customers of the business. By conducting these
surveys, there will be a concrete representation of the customer’s needs and wants that the
business will be willing to meet. The business is also open for feedback so as to meet the
customer’s needs and wants, thus, giving them satisfaction. Again, the focus should also be on
the quality and price of the products produced by the business.
Our initial focus will be in the Bicol University Daraga Campus as it is convenient for us
but is also filled of our target market. This is exclusive to that segment of the target market, in
17
case of the secondary target market which consists of neighbors and acquaintances in the
Page
Daraga-Legazpi City area, the selective distribution strategy shall be used. Combining two
different distribution strategies will definitely increase the efficiency and profit of the business
in general. It maximizes revenue as the area of distribution is wider. It doe s pose a challenge to
the managers but all the more reason to do it gradually rather than suddenly. Starting small but
continually growing is the way for the business’ sales strategy.
As have mentioned in parts prior to this one, the strongest suit that we can offer is using
social media and the internet to its fullest in the marketing mix seeing as it is something the
primary target market is using almost anytime of the day because of its ease of use and access
is relatively easy. By making our content easy to access and free of charge, we can engage with
our customers more intimately. This kind of promotion strategy can also be called digital
marketing. Primarily using Facebook as our social media platform, statistics say that the more
frequent facebook pages are updated, the more people will know about the business. This
includes facebook ads paid by the business to Facebook. Moreover, we made sure to make
appearances and sponsor local events as to make the business known in the locality even as
small as us especially around the university in our chosen locality. We also made us of the more
traditional way of promoting a product which is word of mouth, we marketed our product to
those who we already know, friends, families, neighbors, former classmates, schoolmates and
acquaintances within the locality. By using all of these strategies continually and constantly, we
hope that customers are more than happy to buy our variety of products to choose from.

10 CRITICAL RISKS
Contrary to starting the business immediately, we ought to evaluate critical risks and
determine them accordingly and specifically. We have determined some of the critical risks in
the pre-launch phase of the business:
• Sanitary Regulations
Strictly obeying certain rules and regulations set by the concerned governing body and
the government in general. For example, applying for sanitary permits, maintaining
cleanliness and such.
• Competition
Upon entering the market, observing the competition to determine the strengths and
weaknesses of both sides and using the data to our advantage.
Equally as important as the critical risks in the pre-launch phase is the critical risks in the
post-launch phase which are the following:
Expenses incurred initially is too high because of costly ingredients and unpleasan t
alternatives
• Changes in the environment
Lack of technology to produce the product and trends that come and go
To avoid loss, better marketing is needed as well as trying to find healthier and cheaper
alternatives with good quality. It is beneficial to set quotas for every week of the business so as
to avoid loss. It also is good to observe both the target market’s behavior and the market prices
of ingredients used to produce the product so as to be ready for changes in price and such.
