It has been concluded by an overview of effectiveness of implementing the business idea as well as recommendations to be necessitated in ensuring the objectivity and success of the gap to a business plan.

Introduction

In every business entity, it is vital for a marketing industry to come up with essential strategies in the making of a contextualized marketing strategy vital for essential for marketing planning. Similarly, a strategic market plan clearly defines the position a business in its respective industry. From analytical studies, marketing plans also depict the gaps in a business unit. By so doing, the gap is generated to fitting into the market by describing the gap internal and external factors that would develop the gap into an idea, its market budget, location, segmentation and methodology of the marketing mix towards enhancing the gap to a business idea.

Development of a business idea

Following my investigation from the feasibility tour I conducted, there were representations of different businesses each being conducted at optimum levels. However, after close examination I did discover a gap that is considered businesswise, it could be an effective business idea. The implementation of the gap would later contribute a great deal to the return on investment at the shopping complex.

The shopping complex does not offer concrete ground for the beauty and hair dressing industry. It also does not commercialize the vantages towards in the industry; though it is not concretely developed. It came to my attention that African hairdressing is not adequately addressed as compared to other industries. Studies have shown that the beauty and hairdressing industry has been expanding tremendously across the years, and business ideas inspired by hairdressing have been up and running at the same time incurring immense profits towards the industry. It is essentially vital to come up with a business idea that addresses the gap identified from the Stratford Shopping Complex.

In justifying the establishment of the African hairdressing business idea at the complex, several factors are to be considered and effectuated. A clear-cut niche should be established to advise the implementers on the important startup methods for investing, researching and perfecting a business environ for the new business (Johnson, 2011). This is mainly effected to develop a good quality line of services. Simplicity and network building is also conducted while trying to break in the new business idea towards in the market. Integration of other stakeholders and providers of the service to the targeted clientele is vital in building a cornerstone of networking towards the idea development. Important to note while introducing this idea to the complex is that hair dressing is only efficient and easy when conducted from a sociable perspective. Similarly, the business idea concerning African hairdressing is easily integrated towards having outside attention and leverage on new opportunities while implementing the new business idea.

Market segmentation

Likewise to other industrial businesses, hairdressing has its categorization of its market segments towards addressing the demand and quality of the services it offers to its targeted customers. While developing this business plan, several criteria determine and define the segmentation, the main one through selective qualitative segmentation. An efficient segmentation has led to the development of the silver market segment. This is an internal homogenous segment offering all customers the same quality of service despite the age difference (Kohlbacher, 2010).

Market Mix

As compared to other industries and their progress in their respective markets, hairdressing is at a more advantageous position to conduct its business operations, especially from the Stratford Shopping Complex. According to lamb, elements of the marketing mix in hairdressing services need to be attuned in meeting the needs of the clients. These elements are characteristics derived from intangibility and inseparability of services and their provision (Lamb, 2011). Through systematic integration of the 4Ps, people, physical evidence and process, services from the hairdressing growing market are conventionally marketed. These are all integrated to market the unique ideology to service marketing. This ensures that the implementation of the idea enjoys a competitive vantage and differentiation of its services towards competent rivals.

The four Ps addressing marketing mix, especially towards hairdressing assert that the services being offered are a product strategy in customizing and standardizing service availability to customers. They correlate to a clear focus and creation of strategized management of the relationship of the service providers and customers (Kitchen & Proctor, 2001). Reference to hairdressing at Stratford positions its implementation at a market share advantage with a better sales growth, and eventually a paramount customer satisfaction environment (Kitchen & Proctor, 2001).
