Principles of Real Estate Development (REM3211)

Introduction
This report is about our goal to conduct a proper business in the
Assumption University area. We seek to create a feasible project in this area in
order to provide a valuable service to the students here. Our concept is to make
a skincare clinic. Our choice was due to the fact that our observations of the AU
area showed absolutely no direct competitors to our service. This provides us
with an opportunity to become a successful business around the AU area. We
also observed that a large portion of AU students have great value in their
appearance. So, by investing in a skincare clinic around the AU area, we can
achieve success because this service is quite popular, and it can be considered
a trend among the AU students.

Project Steps
Gantt Chart
1. Business Selection
Define type of business
First, we made an agreement within our group to find the appropriate type of
business after teacher assigned us to do the project. There were 2 business ideas
that we thought of. First is a culinary school and second is a convenience store.
Approval of idea
We asked our teacher about our idea, and whether they were appropriate and
feasible to make at the Bangna campus or not. Unfortunately those ideas were not.
So we decided to create another business, which was a skincare clinic
Finding location of business
Our group noticed that the GVC area is full of demand during the day and
even throughout the night. So we decided to gather information on alternative
choices of being a skincare clinic around the GVC area. We asked for the available
space along with rental rate of our alternative choices.
2. Market Analysis
Survey competitors
We found out that there are only two competitors in the GVC area. They are
both indirect competitors due to the fact that they are spa businesses. Their spas are
not really related towards skin care treatment because the spas are focused on
relaxing massages.
Design questionnaire
We designed 19 questions, including general information.
Approval of questionnaire
We submitted all questions for an approval and we were recommended to
provide more detail and specifications in the questions and to also provide open-end
questions that were not included in the questionnaire.
Redesign of questionnaire
We redesigned all the questions and made up to 100 copies of the
questionnaire.
Conduct Questionnaires
We used quota sampling by collecting information from 100 respondents in
both the Suvarnabhumi and Hua Mak campuses.
3. Data Analysis
After collecting all data from the respondents, we input all the data into an
SPSS program and conducted all the data analyses including all the graphing.
4. Report
We collected all pieces of works, and set the format. Reorganized and printed out
the data in a report.
5. Submission and presentation
Market Analysis
Marketing customer segmentation
Geographic:
Local marketing in surrounding area, at ABAC Suvarnabhumi campus.
Demographics:
Age: teenagers to the elderly
Gender: Both male and female
Income: moderate to high
Psychographics:
Life styles
Activity: Occupation involving their own personal image.
Opinions: Self-conscious about their health and image.
Market Needs
- More promotions
- Discounts

- Membership and benefits from becoming member.
SWOT Analysis
Strength:
1. Pornkasem provides excellent service, uniquely designed skin care product
treatments from the R&D team, and other special promotions that give it a distinct
quality from other competitors.
2. Pornkasem is recognized, preferred, and respected nationally.
3. This branch is a convenience in terms of location and access for the ABAC and
Bang Sao Tong community.
4. Pornkasem’s product is at the market price and is affordable for ABAC student.
Weakness:
1. Pornkasem’s treatment courses are quite expensive.
2. Most of the treatment courses focus on long-term commitments. Thus, clients must
have punctual timing and dedication.
3. Pornkasem’s equipment and technological machines are well designed, which in
turn, raises fixed cost, and results in a longer time in order to breakeven.
Opportunity:
1. There is no skin care clinic that focuses on special treatments like Pornkasem does,
around the ABAC community. The businesses most likely to be a competitor of
Pornkasem are the 2 spa businesses.
2. The result of interviewer for those who are interested in Pornkasem skin care shows
that there is a diverse timing need for treatments. Therefore, there will be few
chances of customer clutter and most will be satisfied.
3. The study reveals that the trends of both female and male teenagers are more
actively interested in beauty and cleanliness.
Threats:
1. Since most ABAC alumni don’t have jobs, they have lower budgets than the price of
the treatment courses.
2. Along with the world’s current economic crisis, Thailand is also facing a recession,
which means that customer must weight between necessity and desire. Since
skincare is likely to be a desire for teenagers, it can cause a threat to Pornkasem’s
company.

We ask the respondents to rank 3 types of valued body part, which are body skin, body shape and face skin, as well as other/none from the most to the least important. As a result, most of the respondents ranked face skin as the most important, which is at 73%. Then, body shape was the second most important at 38%, and body skin was the third at 42%. Therefore, we can conclude that the majority of the respondents are interested in face skin treatment the most.
Next, we asked the respondents about the skin problems that they experienced, or are experiencing. The purpose of this question is to list most commonly known skin problems that people face, and to conclude what our student respondents are suffering from the most. The three most common issues are dry/oily skin, acne, and dark under-eye bags, ranking from 56%, 47% and 40% respectively as in the charts, and illustrations below.

Description
We believed that the reasons our respondents were experiencing these issues, is due to the tropical, and humid weather in Thailand. This means that a lot of dust and sweat can accumulate on the face, which can harm or irritate the skin. Furthermore, facial problems are one of the leading problems that teenagers are facing. This might be caused by the high amount of stress amassed from studies, tests, and reports they are required to complete—as is commonly shown in Assumption University.
Based on the previous question regarding common skin problems, students are then asked to refer to the clinic(s) that they first recognize if they are thinking of receiving treatment for their skin ailments. Our duty was to allow respondents to rank up to 3 recognized clinic brands. Most of them think of Wuttisak clinic as the first, Pornkasem clinic as the second place, and Nittipon clinic as the third place as shown below

Based on the previous question, we then asked the students about what factors led to them recognizing the clinic brands that they chose. The results demonstrated that the information from family and friends [word of mouth] is the easiest one to find and notice. Then, advertisements or brochures are the second source used to find out more detailed information. Lastly, TV commercials provided customers with information to help them choose a clinic to visit.

Description
From the data shown above, we see that the main source of recognition of the clinic brands came from family/friends [word of mouth]. Second was from TV commercials, and third was from listening to the radio.
Word of mouth is the most influencing source because what people suggest is based off of what they’ve experienced of heard. This leads us to find out what factors customers seek when considering using skincare services.

As seen from the charts above, most students considered the quality of products offered to be an important factor of choice. From this data we conclude that price/promotion and quality of services are also important factors when choosing a skincare clinic.
The next question was about whether the skincare services are valuable to the students at all. From the results, most tend to agree that using skincare services is indeed important when the time comes, such as when facial problems arise.
Do you think that using skincare is important?

Moreover, the respondents also wanted to have the skincare clinic located near their house if possible. And those who are living around the Bangna campus preferred to have a skincare clinic located in the GVC area for the purpose of how convenient it would be.

Surprisingly, the results from the respondent’s match the location that we chose to conduct our skincare clinic business. This information may prove that our business might be feasible. However, the data here is not sufficient enough to indicate whether the business will truly be possible.
In order to create a more accurate decision, we need to further question the respondents who have previously visited skincare clinics.
From 100 respondents, we found that 61% of them have been to a skincare clinic sometime ago. So, from this point onwards, we will be referring only to this group of students.
Firstly, we needed to know what skincare clinics the respondents usually visit.
Which skincare clinic do you usually go to?

Description
The information in the chart above doesn’t give any reasonable details about how often we should operate our business. This is because the property that we are using for our business consists of a fixed monthly rental fee that we have to pay regardless of how often we operate our clinic or how much income we earn. So, in this case, our service should be available daily. However, this data does in fact tell us how we can forecast our potential income during each period.

Description
Illustrated in the 2 charts above, we can achieve a better understanding on how we can manage both our operating costs as well as general expenses. By observing the daily time schedules of our customers, we can predict when we need to hire extra part-time staff members, or when to shut off unnecessary sources of energy. All these factors can make our business much more efficient in terms of cost management.
Conclusion
Based on all of the collected data from the questionnaire, we are able to confidently
say that our concept to create a skincare clinic near ABAC Suvarnabhumi is a feasible
project to invest in. This is because we found that the majority of respondents agreed that
skincare was quite important, and that they favored having a skincare clinic near the
Suvarnabhumi campus. Furthermore, the location itself, which is at GVC, is highly popular
and our plan to invest in this area matches popularity of the area. This means that the
respondents preferred to have a skincare clinic near the GVC area. Apart from that, we
know that our products will need to be priced from 300 to 1,000 baht based off of the data
showing ABAC students’ allowances and how much they’ve spent per visit to a clinic. In
addition, if we want our clinic to be successful, we need to emphasize on what factors will
make students more inclined to visit our skincare clinic. Mainly, we will focus on providing
high quality products, inexpensive pricing and a variety of promotions, and finally, we will be
known for our great services.
Recommendations
Even though our project is quite feasible, we have to take into consideration that
operating costs will have to be properly managed. Even when the clinic is well known,
customers will only come during specific times, such as only during the weekends in the
afternoon and evenings. So, we have to manage when we should hire part-time staff and
when we should reduce the amount of energy consumption in our clinic. Also, in terms of
the types of treatments that we provide, we need to be able to provide the types of
treatments that the students want. This is based off of what main skin problem these
students have, which is mainly acne, and oily/dry skin. So we should be able to provide the
best treatments possible for these ailments.
We relate our clinic to Pornkasem because we want to provide services similar to the
treatment program offered by Pornkasem for the improvement of all types of skin. The
clinic’s treatment programs present a full line of organic skin care products and other
specialized treatments. These unique treatments promise real change with new clarity,
youthfulness and overall healthiness you never knew your skin could have. Pornkasem is
the answer to all types of skin problems, starting from simple acne prone skin, wrinkly skin,
and other types of skin ailments.
From the data we collected, we can say that Wuttisak skincare clinic is one of the
more recognized clinics out there. However, we chose to relate to Pornkasem because out
of the 100 respondents who had taken our questionnaire, 61 have used skincare clinics
before. And those 61 respondents have used Pornkasem the most. So, if we want more
potential customers, we need to be able to relate our business to another one that is
popular in terms of how often people use it.
