Future products and services that Tucson Electronics will prepare to institute include
TV/VCR/DVD rental, satellite TV installation and servicing, sales of new TVs, DVDs, VCRs and
stereos, and repair/sale of microwave ovens. Mr. Munroe is also investigating the possibility of
offering a new product line of home entertainment cabinets at some future date.
3.2 Sourcing
Tucson Electronics will be obtaining most of its parts through established dealers and directly
through the manufacturers of the relevant electronics. As part of the company's low cost
strategy, the company will seek to purchase parts in large quantities whenever possible to take
advantage of volume discounts. In addition, the company will aggressively seek to procure its
parts from local suppliers in order to start forming close relations with such companies. It is the
ultimate aim of Tucson Electronics to form strategic partnerships with such companies in order
to lower overall costs of parts.
A large part of Tucson Electronics enhanced services will be free pickup and delivery of
electronics to a person's home. Mr. Munroe's cousin, Mr. Thomas Porter, owns Caesar Courier
Services, a local company providing pickup and delivery services. Mr. Porter has agreed to
provide these services to Tucson Electronics' clients at discounted prices to Mr. Munroe.
3.3 Technology
The technological revolution in computers has enhanced our abilities to diagnose and repair our
clients home electronics. Tucson Electronics will remain on the cutting edge by instituting the
use of computer diagnostic equipment in its shop. The company will continue to seek new ways
to provide a better service through technology.
3.4 Competitive Comparison
The electronics repair industry is highly competitive. Each company within this field has high
labor costs, low margins, and a high intensity of competition.
Suppliers have a great deal of power in setting and negotiating the prices of their products and
services to repair shops. This is due to the fact that the suppliers who absorb the greatest
amounts of cash from repair shops are large electronic manufacturing companies such as
Panasonic, Emerson, Toshiba, etc. These companies are more consolidated than the repair
industry, have deeper pockets, an almost limitless number of substitute customers, and finally
they are the single most important supplier to the electronic repair industry. Therefore, these
Page 5
GSix Electronics
companies can set whatever price they wish to. Furthermore, labor is the single most important
expense in this industry, and salaries for such individuals are well known and not very flexible.
In addition, because the customers see the service as undifferentiated and a "commodity" with
little value separation between competitors (if they offer a suitable level of quality) buyer power
is also very high. Additionally, the costs of our services are not cheap, and buyers are willing to
search for the most favorable combination of price and acceptable service.
The barriers to entry and exit are moderately low in this industry. Switching costs are virtually
non-existent and the costs to entry and exist the market are low. The large number of
competitors in this field including substitutes mean that pricing for such services are very
competitive. The only way to have an advantage in this industry is a low cost leadership
principal applied aggressively to all aspects of the business or to build up customer relations to
a point where the switching costs are raised.
Based on this analysis, Tucson Electronics will pursue a low cost leadership strategy as its
primary competitive advantage. Furthermore, the company will simultaneously build up its
product and service line to take advantage of the limited opportunity to create higher switching
costs through enhanced value creation and to spread out costs.
3.5 Future Products and Services
Future products and services that Tucson Electronics will prepare to institute include
TV/VCR/DVD rental, satellite TV installation and servicing, sales of new TVs, DVDs VCRs and
stereos, and repair/sale of microwave ovens. Mr. Munroe is also investigating the possibility of
offering a new product line of home entertainment cabinets at some future date.
Tucson Electronics will start implementing these new products or services in the following time
periods:
The capital investment needed for such expansion will primarily come from the company's
accumulated operating cash account. It is anticipated that some of these product/service
expansions that require significant inventory, such as new sales, may require additional cash
inflow such as loans. The company will be preparing proposals for various lending institutions in
anticipation of this need.
Presently the product that is really driving the electronics repair market is computers. While
Tucson Electronics is not currently positioned to take advantage of this situation, it is the longterm goal of Tucson electronics to incorporate computer repair services within the company.
Once the firm is able to generate enough cash to retain the services of a computer repair
technician, the company will evaluate the viability of such a move. It is anticipated that this
service will be offered sometime after 1st Qtr 2007.
4.0 Market Analysis Summary
There are approximately 332,500 households in the greater Tucson area, which includes
suburbs such as Green Valley, Ina, and South Tucson. Virtually all of these households have
Page 6
GSix Electronics
TVs, VCRs, etc. Tucson Electronics segments its market into product categories that reflect the
estimated number of each electronic device currently being used in the greater Tucson area,
since each of these devices may fail at any time and require our services. In addition the
growth rate of each product emplaced in the home is based on the current sales growth of each
product. Presently, the fastest growing product, in terms of sales, is the DVD player. It is
anticipated that the DVD will replace the VCR within the next three to five years as movie rental
stores replace their existing VHS movies with DVD. The largest segment is the home and car
stereo segment, since usually a household has more than one of these systems. The company
will be focusing on servicing all of these systems, and not focusing on one over the other.

Tucson Electronics is fortunate in that Janet Munroe, Mr. Munroe's wife works in cost analysis
for Wal-Mart, one of the country's best low cost companies. Mrs. Munroe has agreed to furnish
cost analysis services to Tucson Electronics for free.
The low cost leadership strategy will not be simple to achieve. Realistically speaking, because of
the fragmented nature of the industry, Tucson Electronics will only seek a low cost leadership in
the Tucson region for the first seven to ten years of operations. In order to capture this position
and achieve its benefits of high market share and profitability, the company is expected to have
higher start-up costs and lower profits within the first few years as the company invests in
better and more efficient facilities and equipment than most competitors and engages in
aggressive pricing to capture market share. The company will rigorously evaluate every aspect
of the company to improve efficiency and lower costs. Mrs. Munroe is preparing an analysis of
the company's value chain and cost drivers to identify where costs can be lowered and which
aspects of the business Mr. Munroe must focus on. It is expected that management will expend
a great deal of energy in cost management and the reduction of things such as marginal
customer accounts and marketing expenses. Once in operation, management will concentrate
on developing established procedures that will create the most effective service experience.
Finally, as part of this low cost leadership strategy, the company plans to vertically integrate to
include original sales and broad services that will spread costs and serve all major customer
types so as to build volume.
4.2.1 Competition and Buying Patterns
Customers traditionally purchase services in this industry because of effective advertising and
reputation. The customers wish to be reassured that they will receive prompt and reliable
service and have an understanding service representative will listen to their problems and seek
to solve them in a fast and professional manner. Therefore image during the entire service
experience is crucial to maintain word-of-mouth marketing and keep a low curn rate. Currently
the largest problem that faces small firms is product/service awareness. By the use of effective
and widespread advertising, Tucson Electronics expects to be able to capitalize on the weakness
of the the "mom and pop" outfits style of passive promotion (such as Yellow Page ads) and to
leverage greater product awareness into higher market share. There is no seasonality to this
industry although there is some slight increase in servicing sales during the Christmas season.
4.2.2 Business Participants
As stated before, the electronic repair industry is highly fragmented. In fact, there are so many
small providers that any company in this industry is facing a purely competitive environment.
Approximately 23,700 electronic repair firms exist in the country today. Firms within this field
range in sizes from the "mom and pop" outfits such as Dave's Electronics and Kachina Repair
in downtown Tucson to regional companies like Magnolia Hi-Fi and the national chains such as
Circuit City. Not all of these firms are purely repair outfits. In fact all of the larger firms make
the majority of their revenue in original sales. It is these companies that have the largest
market share and have the opportunity to compete by differentiating on customer service or
product/service range.
As stated before, Tucson Electronics will seek a low cost leadership approach in the local Tucson
region first. Its goals are not to directly compete with the larger companies who could
effectively out compete Tucson Electronics. Instead, the company will seek to outprice the local
"mom and pop" outfits and acquire their market share in order to then compete with the
regional firms. There are eight such "mom & pop" firms that will be Tucson Electronics' main
competitors in its first few years of operation. They are:

Ferndale TV Shoppe.
Flyers.
Direct mailers.
Discounts.
Newspaper ads.
Yellow Pages.
Referrals through other local businesses.
Radio ads.
Billboards.
Web banners on local information sites.
The company's aim is to overcome the traditional small firm's passive form of advertising and
promotion by sending our message to the customer, instead of having the customer look for a
firm when they need our services. The share development graph below shows how the
company plans to build market share through service awareness, value creation, competitive
price, availability, and attractive service experience, all leading to the purchasing of our
services. The numbers given in the graph give the estimated percentages of those customers
who respond favorably to each marketing step. These numbers multiplied together give us an
estimated aggregate market share of approximately 16%. The company expects to achieve this
by year four.
5.1.1 Pricing Strategy
Tucson Electronics exists in a purely competitive environment where each firm must be a price
taker. In other words, the firm has no ability to affect the market price of its services,
regardless of how many TVs/DVDs or VCRs it repairs. In this case, therefore, marginal revenue
(the revenue incurred by producing or servicing one more unit) is equal to the price charged.
Furthermore, because the demand curve is essentially horizontal, Tucson Electronics can
service electronics at total capacity without effecting the price.
What all of this means for the company is that the we must seek to charge our clients at the
market price (or lower). Research has shown that the average price is approximately $75 per
electronic device. As long as marginal costs do not exceed revenues, the company's method to
maximize short-run profits is to service the various electronic devices at maximum capacity.
This means that Tucson Electronics can expect an long-term ROA of approximately 14%.

time, Mr. Munroe sought to expand his experiences in electronics by becoming a certified
electronics technician with various brand companies. Mr. Munroe is now seeking to leverage this
experience into a growth-oriented business that will be able to eventually compete with the
largest firms in the industry.
Mr. Munroe will also be employing the services of his son Samuel, who desires to eventually
take over the business. Samuel Munroe has been attending a local trade school and is expected
to graduate with a degree in electronics in the summer of 2002.
7.1 Personnel Plan
Tucson Electronics' initial staffing will consist of Mr. Munroe, his son, and two part-time
technician trainees. Accounting, bookkeeping, and marketing consulting services will be
outsourced. The company's intermediate goal is to have four full-time, fully trained technicians
at the original facility, plus a full-time office manager. However, management has decided to
await future developments before determining the best time to bring on such personnel.
