 Marketing Plan of Multany Face Mask

1. Introduction:

Spry Cosmetics Ltd is a new and starting up company which forms on

31 March in 2010 in Dhaka. Its objectives are to provide world class and
innovative cosmetics products. This company is preparing to launch
Multany Face Mask which is quite new and stylish product for alls.

Care of face has gotten stylish overtime. People spend thousands of

money for buying different types of perfume to make them beautiful and
sophisticated. As thing get better with time, people will move on from
the good Multany Face Mask

2. Objectives Of This Assignment:

3. Market Summary:

Multany Face Mask possesses good information about the market and knows
a great deal about the common attributes of the most customers. This
information will be leveraged to better understand what their specific
needs and how Multany Face Mask can better communicate with them.

3.1. Market Demographics:

Geographic:
• Multany Face Mask has no specific geographic target area in
Bangladesh but we prefer urban area more than rural area. It
would be very suitable according to our weather condition and
climate. People can use this shower gel all the year round.
 Demographics:

• Both male and female can use this shower gel.

• People who are in the age at 15 to 69 are the vital users.

• Bigger family consists of 6 to 10 member can use family size

and single person and single family most probably use little
size.

• People who are educated are major concerning customer.

• People who are involved in earning and lead a prosperous life

also our concerning customer.

Behavior Factor:

• People who are very aristocratic and lead very luxurious life
they usually accept this product easily and old conventional
people will take longer time to accept this gel.

3.2. Market Needs:

People usually need body face wash or similar type of products like
liquid soap, for their face wash. Almost 75% people in our country use face
wash for their face. People are very much habituated to use face wash. Most of
the people recommended beauty care are using first and foremost for cleaning purpose.

Purpose of using Face wash:

 Feel skin
smooth
feel fresh
8% 5% 25%
Beauty care

42% 20% Clean

Germ
protection

Most of the people of our country are very much conventional but our
young generations are different as they can cope with newly things much
more easily. Some sorts of people especially young generations are very much
monotonous with using conventional face wash. So they are looking for
something new and different. That’s why we believe that our Multany Face Mask
would be the most impressive want for this growing need.

3.3. Market Trends:

In our country people usually use face wash for their face, except 70%
male and 95% female respondents replied positively that they use face wash regularly for face.
However, among male and female who is not use face wash on regular basis because they feel that
face wash trim down the smoothness of skin.
Face washes Usage Pattern:

Influencing Factors in New face wash Purchase Decision:

While purchasing face wash both male and female respondents firstly look for brand and their
percentage is 26.67%. Then, secondly they prefer both antiseptic quality and beauty care quality
and for these the percentage is 23.33%. After that, 10.00% consumers seek for both price and
ingredients. Again, 6.67% people search for both availability and packaging. Finally, only 3.33%
people hunt for few other factors which are pack size, advertisements, and shopkeeper’s opinion.

Different types of people use different types of face wash. People who
are concerned with their beautification they use luxury beauty face wash like
Dove which possesses maximum market share. Other face wash like pones,
are also used for their beauty. Some other people are very much cautious to
their skin and try to keep them fresh . These sorts of people usually use
Lifebuoy face wash, Savlon. Upper classes and sophisticated people use very
expensive and very lucrative beauty soap like Dove, , and Camay. Our young
generation and sophisticated people want new, different, innovative, stylish,
and quality something for showering. So we assume that shower gel would be
greater interest in this prospect.
Market segmentation:

Multany Face Mask is a new and uncommon product and its segmentation
is different to other ordinary facewash. Its segmentation bases on-

gender (men & women)

social class (Upper upper-Upper- Upper middle and Middle.)
density (urban area)
attitude toward product (positive, adaptable with new things. )
and generation (young )

Our market segment is quite measureable because our main target

customer is 15–64 aged people and its approximate size is 63.6% of total population

Our target segment is very accessible because we urban area is one of our target market. The

Our market segment is quite differentiable (Such as Men, Women) who

help us. We can introduce different marketing strategy and promotional
strategy according to men and women choice, preference and needs.

So our market segment is measurable, accessible, actionable, and

differentiable.

we need to take lots of promotional activities to create brand awareness
among the people.

 Its price is much higher than other face wash. So we should reduce our
production cost by producing and selling larger scales.

 We give much priority to young generation but capturing the young

generation we should emphasizes on other people as well.

 We should provide more information about quality, feature and benefits

to the target customers.
