psychological issues. We emphasize five main services through five functional rooms
with different offerings.

YOW-O. In this room, clients are given the freedom to smash things, considered an
effective way to reduce stress and anger. The workshop services for painting and
meditation are also integrated into our core service offerings.
Finally, the Catalyst room offers a comfortable experience for clients to release stress by
engaging in effective stress relief toys.
Overall, YOW-O is committed to providing diverse services to cater to the psychological
well-being of our clients.

creating music combined with specialized concepts from psychoacoustics. The purpose
of the therapy is to accurately describe the sounds that best align with the client's inner
emotional state, aiming to create a profound sense of connection with oneself.
The effects and benefits of music therapy have been researched for decades. Key findings
suggest that this therapy can be beneficial for individuals dealing with depression,
anxiety, sleep disorders, and even cancer.

This service provides rooms filled with randomly arranged objects, such as old or
damaged items (plates, vases, cups, rice cookers, TVs, etc.). Customers enter
soundproofed rooms equipped with professional protective clothing, gloves, and helmets,
allowing them to comfortably release their anger by smashing these items. People can
break and destroy items, and the violence here does not affect anyone. It is controlled
violence that takes place in a very short period. After the destruction, individuals often
feel physically and mentally relieved. The tools for smashing include baseball bats,
wooden sticks, or rubber guns. These objects are arranged randomly, providing an
authentic feeling.
The Fury Room is an ideal place to relieve stress and anger. In today's world, pressure
from work and daily life often pushes us to the limit. The Rage Room allows us to
express emotions freely, providing an opportunity for release and stress reduction.

PART D : POSITIONING STRATEGY
1. Positioning Map

2. Pricing Comparison

Center Price Time

YOW-O 900,000 60 minutes

Sunny Care 1,200,000

Mind Care 1,000,000

Med 247 750,000

The table above shows the price of YOW-O Center and its competitors, which are Sunny
Care, Mind Care and Med 247. The comparison is based on the standard service of those
mental centers - psychological consultation service for one hour. We can see that the
price range is from 750,000 VND to 1,200,000 VND, and the price of Sunny Care Center
is the highest - 1,200,000 VND. The lowest price is 750,000 VND from Med 247 Center.
15
YOW-O Center decided to set the price at 900,00 VND for our consultant service.
Therefore, the price of YOW-O stays at the middle point of the pricing line. With that
pricing strategy, it is reasonable for everyone having mental issues to approach and
experience our services.
3. Diversity of service comparison

Center Service

YOW-O Service consultation

Function rooms for healing

Sunny Care Service consultation

Skill class

Mind Care Service consultation

Business consultation

Med 247 Service consultation

Besides the core service of psychological consultants in YOW-O Center, we also offer
many different function rooms for our customers, so that they can improve their emotions
and also their mental issues without using medicine. However, the competitors of YOW-
O Center have just focused on consulting services, so there is no environment for the
clients to relieve their mood. For Med 247, the diversity of that center is the lowest
because they do not have any supplement services for clients. It is clear that the location
of YOW-O Center in the diversity line is the highest because of its diversity of services
revolving around solving clients' issues.
4. Conclusion
As the findings above, we know that YOW-O Center positions itself as a reasonable price
center with considerable diversity of service, so they focus on the customer-centric

16
approach strategy by creating a pleasant environment from listening to issues of
customers to provide them a place to relieve their stress and forget their daily problems.

of customers.
 Having a considerable diversity of service can attract a large number of customers
who Have mental issues but also want to experience new services.

4. Promotion
Marketing Plan

32
A. Indirect marketing
- Social Media:
 We will conduct marketing campaigns on the center's online channels such as
Facebook, TikTok, and YouTube to enhance the center's visibility with customers.
We will run marketing campaigns on all three channels to increase the center's
recognition.

 We will collaborate with singer Orange, who has recently released the song "Đừng
kết thúc hôm nay", addressing the pressures and burdens faced by young people in
general. Through this collaboration, we aim to convey messages that, despite life's
challenges, we will overcome them, and no matter how sad or desperate. We will
create a campaign "Don’t end today" combined with various singers. YOW-O's
logo and message will be incorporated into the music videos to boost the center's
recognition. Through the messages and images we convey, customers will become
aware of and choose the center as a place for stress relief.

 On YouTube and TikTok channels, we will upload promotional videos conveying


positive messages through artwork, podcasts, talk shows, as well as videos and
images of real experiences at the center. Each video will include messages and
different hashtags to create widespread dissemination. This approach aims to make
YOW-O videos go viral, reaching a larger audience and gaining more recognition.
- Direct Marketing:
 Currently, young people, including students at high school and university, are
facing various pressures and psychological issues. They often find it challenging
to express their concerns to others. Understanding this, YOW-O will collaborate
with schools to organize talk shows covering different topics related to the
challenges young people commonly face. Topics may include school bullying,
body shaming, peer pressure, and many others. Through these discussions, we can
deliver positive messages and promote the center's image to a wider audience.
During school interactions, we will provide staff to introduce the center to
students.

 Together with the "Don't End Today" campaign, in addition to promoting on


social media through music videos featuring various singers, we will also print
materials such as brochures, posters, and design billboards with cheerful images
33
and positive messages. These materials will also include additional information
about the YOW-O center. They will be strategically placed in various locations
such as hallways, bridges, cafes, and convenience stores for easy visibility.

PART H : REVENUE MANAGEMENT


YOW-O revenues will come from these streams:
 Mainstream: service packs from 4 functional rooms: Fury room, Musician room,
Catalyst room, Workshop.
 Sidestream: advice fee by hour of psychologist in Sharing room.
About sharing rooms, our center commits to bring to the clients the best of the best
psychological counseling sessions in the price range. Besides, the other 4 function rooms
are expected to bring back more clients due to its unique scale and style. We are
confident that YOW-O Center is the first psychological recovery service provider in
Vietnam to provide clients with a sophisticated model in the same building.
Moreover, after a very first year, if our center operates effectively and gains significant
trust from the community, we will expand our revenue channels by offering large-scale
service packages to schools and businesses for the purpose of taking care of the mental
health of students and employees.
