Market

Initially, our target market includes university


students of Pakistan which are thousands in
numbers. Later we intend to expand this
system to court bars, schools, colleges, and
other busy printing areas.
Financial Projections

We project a growth rate of 20% per year for


the first three years. The salary for each of the
co-owners will be Rs.100,000 for the first 3
years. On start-up, we will launch our services
in two universities in the first year to target
about 30k users.
Prototype Testing
We ran our prototype without effective marketing
for 2 to 3 days in which we get Rs.3000 in profit.
The feedback was overwhelming and students
also suggest some improvements.
After prototype development, we have developed
a complete system which is ready to implement,
albeit small in scale with a limited number of
units, subject to investment secured in terms of
finance and human resource.

Capital Requirements
We don’t have a huge capital right now
to implement our service in all
universities simultaneously. So we have
to get a huge investment to raise this
barrier. We can, however, develop and
install proofs of concept and
prototypes to act as small scale models
of our network with very limited
resources. These proofs of concepts
can act as insurance of sustainable
growth to our investors.
Access to distribution channels

We can easily displace to print shops


due to our innovative service. We can
also raise the barrier for another smart
print service competitor because they
have to displace us to introduce their
service.
Government and legal barriers

No copyright issues

Approval and jurisdiction issues

System Security issues

Threat of illegal surveillance and


online security
Rivalry among existing firms

Limited competition

Creative destruction

First-mover advantage
Bargaining power of suppliers
Our major suppliers are printers and
paper manufacturers. Their
concentration is large and we also have
a large number of substitutes.
Switching cost between suppliers is
low. There is little threat of forwarding
integration since suppliers belong to
the hardware industry and our
software will be a major hurdle for
them.
Bargaining power of buyers

We are buyers and our smart printing


service will be providing to thousands
of students. We would require a large
amount of paper and other printing
accessories. Hence in this way, we may
form a large group of the buyer in the
future.
