sales forecast for the business. To discuss briefly, the proponent
chose to believe to adapt the concept of price integrity for its
services that would be offered to its clients/tourists.
For Package A – Group VIP, the maximum number of
tourists per trip would be ten (10) paxs, multiplied by its
selling price then multiplied by two (2) trips per week,
again multiplied to four (4) weeks in a month, then
multiplied again to twelve (12) months in a year to come
up with its yearly sales. The proponents’ assumption is
that there would be also a lean season for travelers and
tourist as projected by the number of arrivals given by
DOT. Hence, to a have a more realistic projection the
proponents chose a ten (10) month annual calculation as
shown in the table above.
To wit, this includes competent drivers and highly trained tour guides for better
experience of each and every client that company would cater.

choose longer durations in one location without the hassle of rushing from one place to
another.

Costing of Tour Package B
Table 11 shows the total costing of Package B – Exclusive VVIP
Proper pricing strategy is observed for both benefit of tourist and
proponent:
Formula:
P = Product/Service Price * Mark up + Product Price
= 955 * 300% + 955
P = 3,820.00
Note:
The exclusive day tour can only accommodate 1-4 person, which is
why the costing was derived from a total of four (4) pax perspective.
Hence, if the guest/tourist is alone he/she still needs to pay the amount
above mentioned such makes this an exclusive tour for a client.
PROMOTION
The propose business will extensively use social media as its major marketing
tool, provided that the business would have its own Facebook, Instagram, and
Twitter account. To wit, advertising will be showcased through signage’s and
tarpaulins which will firmly showcase and make the bar visible and aesthetically
appealing. Also, Local Media will be utilized by the proponent’s e.g. Radio
campaign and will pick the three top local stations with which to place our short
and catchy ads.
Word of Mouth as the most common promotional tool. The proponent would
give utmost excellent service to its clients so that in return they would
recommend the company to family, friends, and colleagues for future reference.
Lastly, Hotel Linkages as hotels have most of this tourists as their own guests,
the business would like to enter these establishments for much better
transactions and also the business would be giving incentives and or referral fees
