us going out to services of clients’ needs. The services we will offer as a mobile car wash and

6.0 DESCRIPTION FOR VENTURE

RHFH Mobile Spa is a business venture started by four young entrepreneurs who
have a dream to deliver a doorstep car wash service in a manner that would give the
customers a feature of approachability and easy to access. We aims to strive to build a strong
brand name where we pledged to bring an excellent service to the customers’ door. “RHFH”
is a combination of first letter of all partners name involve in this venture. The idea started
when one of us experience an inconvenient situation at the car detailing shop and car wash
shop. An unfavourable experiences such as long queue, hot weather, no air conditioning room
and no entertainment ready for the customer to enjoy while waiting for their car to get done,
give new refreshing idea to sets up a business where we can see the potential in this market.

As the business partner, we are designing a new business where we can eliminate any
foreseen problems so as to solve these issue. As a normal car wash business will consuming
customers’ time, energy and cost to go the car wash place, we come out with an idea to
deliver the service while the customer can enjoy their leisure time at home. The target
customer is those who would like to avoid all the mentioned difficulties. For example,
employed citizen who having hectic daily life, customers who has no skill to clean
own car and those who have restricted time to go car wash by themselves as well as
customers with no proper place to wash their car, insufficient access of water or no equipment
to get the job done. For instance, RHFH Mobile Spa targeting customer on the high rise
building who do not have the luxury of car garage to let the RHFH Mobile Spa team to do the
job.

Moreover, this service will be a very suitable for those customers who owns more
than one vehicle. RHFH Mobile Spa is sending a team of two with a vehicle that carry water
supply and own electricity upon request so the task can be done without the help of the
customer to locate the basic supply for the team. RHFH Mobile Spa main product is a mobile
team that will do the vehicle cleaning service at customer premise upon confirmation of
booking. The service that we offer is not limited to certain package as customers could fully
customize the order. For an example, a customer could make an appointment at their
convenient time and they can decide whether they would like the mobile team to use the basic
resources like water supply and electricity with the purpose to reduce the charges. The goals
are to get as much as possible customers who will love the car wash service at their doorstep.

The challenge we will face in this business venture is this concept is a bit new to
customer hence there will be less response from customers. Other than that, there is very
limited number of mobile team as our current manpower. Thereby, we are set a sensible target
which is to have around 32 car washes per day with 2 mobile teams. That will give us a
monthly target of RM 20,800.00 by means of average RM25 per car.

This doorstep car wash service will be carried out by a mobile team. In order to
increase its efficiency on marketing, we decided to embark on online reservation via web and
also mobile application. The customer could make a reservation up to 7 days in advance and
could determine the location as long as it is within our coverage. For the beginning we only
cover certain area in Kuala Lumpur city centre to maximize the number of appointments
could be made within a day due to distance between customers to another play a significant
factor. What's more, there will be a membership program offer to customers as to gain more
market share. Through the membership benefit, the customer will enjoy special discount and
many more threats.

In conclusion, RHFH Mobile Spa would definitely attract the potential customer to
subscribe on our services and they could see the value of their money with type of service
deliver to them. We are confidence that this business venture will be reaching its potential in
two years’ time.
8.0 MARKETING PLAN

demographic, and behaviour factors:

1. Geographic
 The immediate geographic target is the city of Kuala Lumpur.
 The total targeted population is just over 1.8 million

2. Demographics
The ratio of male: female is 51%: 49%. The reason for this discrepancy in the
male to female ratio is generally explained by the fact that men typically care more
about their automobiles. Men are more likely to spend money on their cars with
accessories and are more likely to buy a car as a reward for some accomplishment as a
treat for themselves. Women tend to view cars more so as an object of utility. Using
this line of reasoning, women are more likely to use the mobile car wash as they are
less concerned to wash their cars on their own and would prefer our service due to
time convenience.

There are 40% of the households have an income exceeding RM 10,000. Most
of the people in the area are working either for private sectors or government servants
and don’t have the time to wash car on their own. Most living in high rise buildings
and are the prime target for RHFH Auto Spa.

automobile that they have.

quality and cheap service, another one focused on the outer city area and lastly another one
only provide service for exterior washing only. While it is most likely will shrink our market
share, we feel confident that the undergoing the quality of our wash and the entire experience
of utilizing our wash will encouragements customers to use our service.

8.4 Target market/ customer

The customers we are targeting have their cars washed based on the quality of the job. They
do not mind spending a little more expenditure to have their car washed and cleaned in order
to keep the paint work in excellent shape. RHFH Mobile Spa segments its customers by type
of car ownership. RHFH Mobile Spa believes that the type of car that a person owns says
volumes about their driving, and, therefore their car washing and detailing requirements.

1. New car owners: Owners of new cars are most likely to use a hand car washing
service, not machine wash. These owners take great pride in their cars and will make
sure their cars are always cleaned and washed. The goal with these customers is to
promote regular use of the wash and vacuum service. It is aimed to demonstrate that
RHFH Mobile Spa will keep customers’ car appearance as good as it is.

2. Older luxury car owners: These people have either owned their high-end luxury cars
for several years or are unable to afford the expense of a new luxury car but want the
feel of relaxed driving. Both of these groups want to keep their cars in the best shape
possible. Those who have bought second-hand cars will often spend many hours in
their cars and will place high importance on keeping their cars looking good. These
owners will ensure their cars get regular washes and cleaning.

3. Sports car owners: These people are often younger or middle-aged men and will
regard the look of their car as important. They will also pride themselves on the look
of their car and will have their car hand washed at least weekly. These drivers will
keep their cars so clean.

4. Lifetime owners: Many of these people have owned their cars for more than five or
six years and are more likely to be women. They are attached to their cars as friends
and though it may be more sensible for them to purchase a new car, they will want
their car in for a wash occasionally, just when the car is dirty. They preferred their
cars to look presentable and want to keep it in good shape but are not tied up in the
look of their car.
5. Dealerships: There are a lot of new and used car dealerships within the proposed
location of RHFH Auto Spa. These dealerships often use outside car wash services to
detail their vehicles before they are put up for sale.

6. Local businesses and government agencies: Some local businesses and government
agencies have fleets of cars and small vans that must be kept clean to maintain their
company image. These businesses and agencies will be looking for a cost effective
and efficient car washing service to perform this service and will prefer to use a car
wash service during the week rather than during weekends, like the general public.

7. High rise residential car owners: One of the targets is to bring the service to be
enjoyed by high residential car owners. The potential is high due to them having
difficulties in washing the cars on their own.

8.5 Competition and competitive advantage

RHFH Mobile Spa is more than just washing customer’s car. We, as in car was
services line, we offer the new methods and experience, along with the increasingly popular
social media and mobile apps, and we are constantly on the lookout for trends that will lead
us to new markets. Furthermore, our prices are competitive, and we offer a better value to our
customer in time, ease of operation and expense. We will provide a safe, secure environment
to wash and clean a vehicle. This will appeal to all age groups of women, as well as men.

RHFH Mobile Spa seeks to position itself as the premier door to door auto washing
service provider in the Klang Valley area. This positioning will be achieved by leveraging our
competitive edge. RHFH Mobile Spa focus in this service-dependent business is to provide
the highest quality service, at the fairest price, to the largest percentage of the target market
population as possible. This will foster a repeat customer base.
Advantage over Competitors

To reach our agreed price listing for each car wash package, we carefully examined
fifteen car wash facilities in Klang Valley. We analysed each facility's wash packages and
then compared the price of the package to its service contents to make a qualitative
determination on the quality of service provided versus the cost of the service. Unfortunately,
what we discovered was that, in most cases, the service provided did not warrant the higher
price charged to the customer. The customer was not receiving any significant increase in the
service received. Therefore, we carefully constructed our wash packages to ensure that our
customers received the best possible service for the price charged.

Our survey indicates that the wash's performance is directly proportional to the type
and make of equipment used, and the skills of the workers. Therefore, in keeping with our
business objective of providing the highest quality service possible, we've decided to
purchase the most technologically advanced equipment available and ensure our workers are
given enough training before doing onsite job. This will provide us with a qualitative edge
over all the car wash facilities.

Disadvantage over Competitors

We believe there are only two temporary advantages a competitor could have over RHFH
Auto Spa.
 Customer base - We will need time to firmly establish a sturdy customer base.
 Business experience - We lack daily experience in the industry, which our competitors
have garnered over time.
8.6 Marketing strategy

Our marketing strategy is two-fold. First, we must develop a loyal customer base on
which to build our business. Second, we must cultivate and expand this customer base to
ensure a long lasting and solid relationship with our repeat customers and continued vitality
of the business with the addition of new customers. The strategy will use several different
methods to achieve these goals.

Advertising and promotion strategy

Since it’s a new business and people are not aware of this service yet, we must
advertise extensively to make them aware of this new opportunity of car washing and
detailing service. The message that RHFH Auto Spa will seek to communicate is that their
hand washes are superior to the machine-washed alternatives that can actually cause harm to
cars, and the advantage of door to door washing service on offer which are very convenience
to customers. This message will be communicated through several different methods.

The first method is the placement of advertisements in the social media platform. The
social media, Facebook, is well established and will reach a high portion of the target market
segment due to their heavy users. Other than Facebook, we will also use other platforms such
as Instagram, WhatsApp, and other popular platforms.

The second method, we will send leaflets and flyers to the residents and companies in
the area to create awareness so that they could be interested in our service. Additionally, there
will be an on-going marketing plan promoting the car wash throughout the year utilizing
these methods as well as banners and signs, and happy customer referrals and testimonies.

The entire foundation of our business rests on our pledge to provide quality service at
a reasonable price. We will portray our business in such a manner. Additionally, we are
genuinely interested in the positive development and quality of our market area's business
community.
Pricing Strategy

After careful analysis of Klang Valley’s car wash operator's pricing practices, we
crafted a pricing strategy that we believe more closely aligns service with price. Our system
incorporates a three-tier pricing scheme. In accordance with our pricing strategy, our Basic
Wash will cost RM20.00, our Advanced Wash will cost RM25.00, and our Deluxe Wash
package will cost RM30.00. Additionally, we will provide customers the option to customize
their own wash package from a list of individual service options offered. These options will
range in price from RM3.00 to RM10.00.

Customer Loyalty Strategy

To build a solid repeat customer base, we will offer bonus services. On a customer's
first wash service, we will provide them with a card to keep track of service taken from us.
On a customer's fifth wash service, he or she will receive a free basic wash.

Our RHFH Mobile Spa working day will be run a 19 hours service from Monday-
Thursday and Saturday-Sunday and even during Public Holiday. Our operating hours
comprises of 2 shifts which are 9am-6pm and 2pm-11pm. The reason being is through the
market survey and feasibility study, we figured out that there are various potential prospects
with different work shift that would plan their car to be washed by the car wash service.
Hence, we provide an extended range of time for them to available to make the appointment.

Given a 2 team from different shift, we are targeting to wash vehicles of total 32 units
per day for period of 19 hours service. It is projected that within one hour period of time, it
takes roughly 2 customer’s vehicle to be finished the washing activity at customers’ premise.
There is also rest assured that we will ensure the manpower is sufficient in order to fulfil
customer demands. In term of quality, we will ensure the car wash finishing quality to be
sustained throughout the services take place. At this point, we are positively can align with
our organization target which is to have around 32 car washes per day with 2 mobile teams.
That will give us a monthly target of RM 20,800.00 by means of average RM25 per car.

Customer Service Policies

Our policy regarding customer complaints is “We will provide a no questions for a request a
re-wash when someone complains about quality”.

To avoid quality problems, we will use the following approach:

1. Take pictures before, during and after washing/process.


2. Request the customer to confirm that the vehicle has been washed over the phone.

This method is best suited for quick customer comments and reviews.
Payment Options

Accepting a wider range of payment options is more beneficial for customers. In


addition to accepting cash, RHFH Mobile Spa also accepts credit card payments through a
dongle like Square attached to a smartphone. In physical, we are providing a set of VeriFone
VX670 GPRS Wireless POS Wireless TERMINAL Credit Card Machine Cash Register for
each mobile team to ease the customers’ payment through credit card.

Have a good Communications System

For a phone operator and customer service, we will need a procedure to take incoming
phone calls and emails from new prospects and past customers. There are sophisticated
automated voice mail services that can tell the caller more about our services and then give
the option of scheduling an appointment, leaving a message or connecting live to our smart
phone. Once the caller initiates the selected option we will be notified immediately.

We have found that both Bookfresh.com and Ringcentral.com provide excellent


virtual services for handling our incoming calls and even scheduling detailing appointments.
Utilizing the features of these services will free up our time while representing our business
as a state of the art company. It is recommended at the end of each business day we must
contact any leads or appointments that were handled with our virtual office, there is nothing
like talking or emailing our contact direct. We will be sure to check your emails several times
per day for prospects that are looking to book an appointment or have questions about our
services. We can easily check and reply to emails on our smart phone.
