Project Summary
Introduction
Computer shop business is one of the most in demand businesses here in Basilan.
Nowadays, internet cafes are really in demand because of the fast changing technology that the
people embraced just like here in the Philippines. Some have their own laptops and bring it to
coffee shops so that they could relax and at the same time prepare their assignments and paper
works. The people today are very busy and would want to do their jobs in a beautiful and
innovative environment that could satisfy their needs and lessen their stress due to busy
schedule.
Name of the Firm
The proposed name of the firm is CRIMSON COMPUTER SHOP. The owner will
register the firm with the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) and Local Government Unit
(LGU) concerned. The firm will be registered as single proprietorship. The business is about
computer shop.
Location
The business will be renting a space along Hi-way near to Government Office, and
schools. The target consumers are students, teachers, office workers, and nearby neighborhood

other applicable rules and regulations wherein computer shops and other similar establishments
and places of amusements should be put up or constructed at least two hundred (200) meters

considered. Leaflets will be distributed and handed out to various business establishments,
offices, schools, , friends, and relatives. Games and services offered will be displayed on the
store window. I will offer promos to attract the consumer like cheaper rate for computer rental,

promoting the opening of my computer shop also one month before the opening. To let the
people know that there will be a new Computer Shop on the vicinity.

Internet Connection
The major cost of a computer shop is the internet connection. For providing better
service, the proposed project will use a high band width connection for better speed as the
project is going on to provide service of video chat. It is recommended that the internet
connection should be taken from the best internet service provider.
Recommended Connection
If the project is set up in area, where DSL Internet connection is available, it is
recommended to use DSL Internet connection instead of any other Internet connection. This will
improve the speed of internet, which will improve the performance of video chat and will also
reduce the telephone expense.
Marketing Program
Crimson Computer Shop has three main strategies. The first strategy focuses on
attracting novice Internet users, by providing a novice friendly environment, Crimson Computer
Shop hopes to educate and train a loyal customer base.
The second, and most important, strategy focuses on pulling in power Internet users.
Power Internet users are extremely familiar with the Internet and its offerings. This group of
customers serves an important function at Crimson Computer Shop. Power users have
knowledge and web-browsing experience that novice Internet users find attractive and exciting.
The third strategy focuses on building a social environment for Crimson Computer Shop
customers. A social environment, that provides entertainment, will serve to attract customers that
wouldn't normally think about using the Internet. Once on location at Crimson Computer Shop,
these customers that came for the more standard entertainment offerings will realize the potential
entertainment value the Internet can provide.
The large student and nearby neighborhood population will become an important part of
the Crimson Computer Shop customer base. The student population continues to grow with the
success of the educational institutes. Access to the internet, entertainment, and the upscale
ambiance will attract the students. Business community is growing rapidly with the addition of
new companies day by day.
Crimson Computer Shop will provide an opportunity to local and traveling professionals
to check their e-mails communications; this will be an attracting entity for the middle income
group and for the residents of Isabela as they do not have access to the internet at their living
places.
Market Growth
The market for the services Crimson Computer Shop will offer is growing rapidly. The
computer shop hasn't come to this area yet, but similar services are growing rapidly on a global
scale. Large cities that cater to large numbers of traveling business people have been saturated
with businesses offering the services Crimson Computer Shop will offer. Business people use the
Internet services to catch up on email and communications with their family. My area supports a
population that has many of the same needs and interests of this larger group. The student
population continues to grow as the Colleges grows in popularity with high-school graduates
from out of state. These students tend to have money and an interest in up-scale social centers.
Crimson Computer Shop will target these groups with the use of fliers and tarpaulin.
SWOT Analysis
The SWOT analysis provides us with an opportunity to examine the internal strengths
and weaknesses Crimson Computer Shop must address. It also allows us to examine the
opportunities presented to Crimson Computer Shop as well as potential threats. Crimson
Computer Shop has a useful inventory of strengths that will help it succeed. These strengths
include: a knowledgeable and friendly staff, modern computer hardware, and a clear vision of the
market need. Strengths are valuable, but it is also important to realize the weaknesses Crimson
Computer Shop must address. These weaknesses include: a dependence on quickly changing
technology and the cost factor associated with keeping modern computer hardware. Crimson
Computer Shops strengths will help it capitalize on rising opportunities. These opportunities
include, but are not limited to, a growing population of daily Internet users, and the growing
social bonds fostered by the new Internet communities. Threats that Crimson Computer Shop
should be aware of include, the rapidly falling cost of Internet access, and rising local
competitors.
Strengths
1. Knowledgeable and friendly staff Ive gone to great lengths at Crimson
Computer Shop to find people with a passion for teaching and sharing their
Internet experiences. My staff is both knowledgeable and eager to please.
2. Modern equipment Part of the Crimson Computer Shop experience includes
access to modern computer equipment. My customers enjoy beautiful and
convenient units displays, fast machines, and high-quality printers.
3. Up-scale ambiance When you walk into Crimson Computer Shop or even sit at
my waiting area, you'll feel the technology. Great sound background, nice lighting
that sets the mood and the whole area was clean.
4. Clear the vision of the market need Crimson Computer Shop knows what it
takes to build an upscale computer shop. I and my staff know the customers, the
technology, and how to build the service that will bring the two together.
Weaknesses
1. A dependence on quickly changing technology Crimson Computer Shop is a
place for people to experience the technology of the Internet. The technology that
is the Internet changes rapidly. Product lifecycles are measured in weeks, not
months. Crimson Computer Shop needs to keep up with the technology because a
lot of the Crimson Computer Shop experience is technology.
2. Cost factor associated with keeping state-of-the-art hardware Keeping up
with the technology of the Internet is an expensive undertaking. Crimson
Computer Shop needs to balance technology needs with the other needs of the
business. One aspect of the business can't be sacrificed for the other.
Opportunities
1. Growing population of daily Internet users The importance of the Internet
almost equals that of the telephone. As the population of daily Internet users
increases, so will the need for the services Crimson Computer Shop offers.
Management Strategies
Maintain a focus on quality products with bottom-line growth through cost reduction and
optimal performance. I also focus on technology and innovation to make sure our employees
skills are up to standard with todays mode of production.
