 Online Marketing  Banner ads, on Facebook and other websites, can help bring attention to our online store.  We’ll have a page on Facebook, and we can offer daily deals to people who ‘like’ our page, as well as keep up a blog via Facebook.  When someone checks out, online or in store, we will ask for their and send them periodical deals and news concerning upcoming events, along with a link to ‘send to a friend.’  Storefront Marketing  Advertising in the Boomerang, as well as newspapers in Northern Colorado, to help bring as much exposure to our store as possible.  Radio advertisements could be huge in this town! People remember radio ads and jingles. If you grew up in CO, you still remember the Shane Co. radio ad, for example.  We will sponsor a motocross rider, and have him wear gear with our logo on it. This can bring attention from other motocross enthusiasts outside of the Laramie area, and they will become interested in our online store.

 SAP Business 1 (B1) ERP System  SAP is the vendor, Business 1 is the name of the system.  We prefer using an ERP system over a CRM system, because the functions of our dirtbikes business are a little too complex for a CRM system alone. We also feel that an ERP system would be more compatible and flexible for our business today and in the future.  Why we chose it: it has pre-built modules for warehousing and e-commerce, as well as a CRM module. Runs on a variety of platforms, so we shouldn’t have any trouble implementing it. We also like the fact that we will have increased collaboration between our storefront operation and our online store.  $4,250/user (between $50,000 and $75,000 for implementation, license, services, and number of users)

 It’s a customizable software system that is increasingly popular in smaller businesses. Its many features include: payroll management, manufacturing and distribution management, financial analysis codes, and customer relationship management.  SAP B1 has a user-friendly interface, making it easier to use than other systems. The system is very reliable, and relatively inexpensive. Within the modules, this system has many ways to track things such as warranties, distribution costs, serial number tracking, accounts receivable tracking, and patterns within customer relations.  Any small business looking to boost efficiency and striving for further growth. Many industries use SAP B1, such as Warehouse and Production Management, and retail industries.  There are 550 add-ons available for further customization of the system, and there is a mobile app available too. This shows that the SAP B1 is flexible and reaches mobile platforms, so it’s not going to become obsolete any time soon. The system’s format is set up in a way to really guide our business decision making. We can be up and running in 2-8 weeks, and that’s pretty fast!

 We think this system will be very useful in integrating all of our business enterprises. We’ll be able to see how much product we have on hand, we’ll have financial analyses to determine where our money is going, and we’ll have a CRM system in place to help maintain personal relationships with all of our customers, whether online or in store. This system will reduce transaction costs, and will give us more time to focus on other areas of the company.

 Pros:  User friendly interface  Relatively inexpensive  Mobile platform capabilities  Lots of security features, including data security protection  New interface for designing and exploring reports  Error tolerance, and more streamlined than other versions, reducing complexity  Better diagnostic capabilities that enhance tracing and logging than earlier versions  Cons:  Limited remote access, due to not being a web-based system yet.  Not a lot of flexibility with standard reports  Does not support third-party products, such as N’ware (barcode scanning) in warehousing.

Advertising Revenue Model  This type of revenue model is targeted towards a large audience of online visitors. Revenue is generated in an organization by exposing customers to various advertisements. How We Will Use It: Gear up will devise a quality revenue model by advertising to a larger customer base and persuading customers to increase their spending. New users will be exposed to our brand and informed of our high quality service. Gear up will gain a valuable reputation and see an increase in profit in the future. Subscription Revenue Model  The Subscription Revenue Model is conducted when a web site charges a subscription fee for access to some or all of its services. How We Will Use It: Gear up is focused on always being loyal to their customers. Our company wants to provide all customers with free goods and services. However, we could generate a lot of profit as a business if we were to charge a subscription fee. When a user pays the extra fee, Gear Up will offer them promotions, hidden gear, quick transactions, discounts, and insights to the hottest upcoming trends and events. Customers will love the special access.
