Children’s Website Business Plan

InteliChild.com is a place for children to interact with each other, educators, and the world. It generates traffic, valuation for investors, and eventually profits. It is a healthy place for kids to play, parents and schools to buy, and employees to work.

The InteliChild.com e-commerce project is the next step in the company’s evolution. The site will market and sell toys, books, and software products. It will also create web products and applications to increase market share, promote name recognition, and maximize efficiency.

The present InteliChild.com is a start-up with four full-time employees. It is a California C corporation owned by its founders. (Name Omitted) Capital partners acquired 50% of the company. The initial website is at www.citruscoolkids.com.

Our competitive advantage is our in-house knowledge base. Our competitor spends five to 10 times the amount we do outsourcing services. The same will happen with the InteliChild.com website. We already have the SQL™ server and ColdFusion™ programming expertise, and we will be adding Flash™ integration to these skills.

InteliChild will offer three lines of products:

• Toys and Games: carefully selected products for the target market, parents, and educators.
• Books: a selection that appeals to parents and educators, as well as children.
• Software: carefully selected software for the target market, parents, and educators.

Our strategy for future development is to remain flexible and adapt quickly to new technologies and changes.

The InteliChild.com market has been expanding with advancements in technology in the teaching sector. Approval and support from school communities are critical for our entrance into the market.

Our primary target markets include:

1. Kids
2. Parents
3. Educational institutions for children of the upper class
4. Self-teaching families

Our initial launch will focus on the American upper class. These clients appreciate the technology we have created and have high bandwidth connections. They value first-class design.

Our start-up costs are high due to our commitment to dominate the internet market. We expect to break-even in the first year.

The sales forecast is based on increasing website traffic and sales per user session. Sales are projected to rise exponentially from Year 1 to Year 3. We plan to lose money for at least three years while we build traffic and establish our position for the long-term future.

Objectives

• Traffic: 100,000 unique user sessions in June, Year 1; 450,000 in December, Year 1; 3.5 million in Year 2; and 5 million in Year 3.
• Sell-through: $0.58 per unique visit in December of Year 1; increasing to $0.83 in Year 2; and $0.92 in Year 3.
• Valuation: ability to bring in additional investment at economically feasible valuations. We need to attract moderate investment this year, and an additional large infusion in Year 2, with valuation performance that yields attractive internal rate of return (IRR) to investors. The financial section indicates IRR of more than 100% for all investors, with larger IRR for seed, declining slightly for first round and then second round.
• Acquisition or Initial public offering (IPO) in Year 4, with a valuation of more than $20 million. This assumes the market valuations based on sales and earnings, which are relatively high as this plan is written.

Mission

InteliChild.com offers bright children an entertaining place to interact with each other, the Web, educators, and the world. It generates traffic, valuation for investors, and commerce and profits. It is a healthy place for kids to play, for parents and schools to buy, and a creative and fair work environment for employees.

Keys to Success

1. We must retain customers. The website must be easy to use and quickly viewable. User satisfaction is a top priority.
2. The project will succeed by capitalizing on InteliChild.com’s traffic and converting user sessions into dollars through the commerce site.
3. The sales process must be easy to administer and flexible enough to accommodate InteliChild’s needs without increasing employee count.
4. The e-commerce project should establish InteliChild.com as a technology leader, not just bringing back traffic but also attracting new visitors.

Company Summary

InteliChild.com is a start-up company with four full-time employees. We are a high-powered team of creative individuals. The company creates an Internet environment for bright kids and plans to sell toys, books, and software to kids, parents, and schools. Our products will be highly reviewed in our niche.

Start-up Summary

Our start-up costs reflect our commitment to dominate the Internet market place.

Our development costs are high, but our human resources costs are not as high as they might be since we are located in Oregon instead of the Silicon Valley. Marketing expenses are also high, but developing this site without appropriate promotion would make it difficult to gather the necessary traffic for success.

Our location leverages our partner potential, despite the premium we pay for space and talent due to development costs.

Company Ownership:

The company was incorporated as a California C corporation owned by its principal founders at 25% ownership each. (Name Omitted) Capital partners acquired 50% of the company.

Company Locations and Facilities:

The company has a single office. The important website and Internet infrastructure situation will be explained in detail later in this plan. The initial website is at www.citruscoolkids.com.

Products:

InteliChild will offer three lines of products:

1. Toys and Games: carefully selected toys and games for the target market, parents, and educators.

2. Books: a selection of books for parents and educators of the target market, as well as books for children to read.

3. Software: carefully selected software for the target market, parents, and educators.

Product Description:

In the original plan, there was a detailed description of specific toys and games, books, and software. This level of detail was considered proprietary and was removed for purposes of illustration. Please insert a detailed list of your own products if you are using this sample plan as an example.

Competitive Comparison:

In the original plan, there was a detailed description and analysis of other channels and sources competitors where the target market, parents, and educators can purchase toys, games, books, and software. This level of detail was considered proprietary and was omitted from the plan for purposes of illustration. Please insert a detailed description of your competitors for your plan if you are using this sample plan as an example.

Sales Literature:

Our answer to sales literature is the web. Within six months, we should also have a printed catalog to send to customers who prefer a hard-copy catalog.

Sourcing:

In the real plan, this section referred in detail to distributors and the products they carried. This detail was considered proprietary and strategic and was omitted from the sample plan. Please provide a detailed discussion of how the products can be purchased from manufacturers and distributors in this section.

Technology:

The InteliChild.com e-commerce site will be built on a three-tier structure. The site will be coded mostly in ColdFusion™ and ASP™ and driven by SQL™ servers and an IIS™ Web server. Customer registration databases will be live to email updates on products and the website to customers. Customers will have the option to opt-out of the email list.

The information architecture will be based on four fundamental arenas – the free valuable information arena, the product detail arena, the final purchasing arena, and the purchase administration area.

The purchase arena will require a Verisign™ certificate and a Cybercash™ connection. The administrative arena will be hosted on mirror servers that query the live databases for migration into local databases. This server is hidden from Internet traffic and kept under high security.

The set-up will require five servers, two for in-house reasons and three for web hosting. Two of the web host servers will serve traffic through ColdFusion™ and ASP™ in cluster, and the third will be a dedicated SQL™ server.

Future Products:

The Internet reinvents itself every three months. Our strategy for future development is to remain positioned with enough flexibility to adapt to new technologies quickly.

Market Analysis Summary:

The InteliChild.com market has been expanding exponentially with the advances of technology in the teaching sectors and the acceptance of technology as a teaching aid. Approval and support from the school communities, including teachers, the PTA, and special education programs, will be crucial to our entrance into the market.

Market Segmentation:

Our primary target markets include:

1. The kids themselves: ages 5-9 and ages 10-14 (10% of the total in each category).

2. Parents: 10% of the parents, assuming an average combined income above $100,000.

3. Educational institutions for children of the upper class, including day care and private schools (107,000 schools in the U.S.).

4. Self-teaching families: a group of established customers who teach their children from home.

Target Market Segment Strategy

Our initial launch will target the American upper class, as they appreciate our technology and have high bandwidth connections.

Market Trends

The market for technological teaching devices is growing rapidly, driven by salary increases in the technology sector, double-income households, and less leisure time. Research is increasingly happening online.

Market Growth

A strong web presence is crucial for InteliChild.com to survive and be a destination for research by double-income families in the technology sector.

Market Needs

The InteliChild.com website must be fun, easy to use, and informative, reflecting our product line. The design should promote a feeling of superior quality to appeal to parents and educators.

Industry Analysis

The website industry is experiencing significant growth.

Competition and Buying Patterns

Factors such as pricing, shipment, quality, and presentation are important in competition for website use by bright children ages 8-14.

Main Competitors

We are the second-best in dollar market share, with better reviews from industry leaders. This positions us to expand our business significantly.

Milestones

The milestones graphic illustrates key implementation activities. The most important milestone will be the design templates. During that time we will be putting together the back-end phases, and both milestones should be achieved at the same time. After that point, integration can begin between the back-end and the front-end phases. Our next milestone will be the beta release, followed by the full launch two weeks later.

Management Summary

Sonny Cieliblu will lead the InteliChild.com project as the producer. Sonny will oversee all project activities, serving as the administrator, coordinator, and trainer for both partners and staff members. This multi-faceted role presents challenges and responsibilities as an employee, coach, and supervisor.

Organizational Structure

We require an agile organizational structure that promotes a seamless flow of ideas and implementation across sales, marketing, and website development. Rather than thinking of these functions as separate entities, we aim to foster a collaborative team environment. While maintaining clear decision-making power, we recognize the need for structure as we grow.

Management Team

Person 2: [Placeholder text describing the people involved and management structure.]

Person 3: [Placeholder text describing the people involved and management structure.]

Person 4: [Placeholder text describing the people involved and management structure.]

Management Team Gaps

Currently, our team lacks experienced management professionals. We acknowledge this weakness and plan to recruit individuals with a wealth of expertise to strengthen our administrative and financial capabilities.

Personnel Plan

To support our growth, we have outlined a personnel plan. By the end of 2000, we aim to have 14 employees, expanding to 18 by the end of 2002.

Financial Plan

As an internet venture, our success relies on the financial prospects of the growing online world. To ensure financial viability, we aim to increase our valuation in line with our schedule and attract substantial additional investment. The investment offering for investors is detailed in the table below:

1. The exit strategy involves acquisition in 2003, valuing the company at over $20 million.

2. The equity plan and valuations at the time of exit are explained in the "Exit Strategy" section. The plan assumes an ending valuation of $20 million, an attractive proposition with an IRR of more than 100% for every investor.

Important Assumptions

The general financial assumptions are detailed in the following table. However, critical underlying assumptions include:

1. Continued growth of internet users, estimated to increase from 4% to 11% of the world’s population by 2005.

2. No major e-commerce disasters affecting credit card authorization, shipping, etc.

3. Ongoing support from financial markets, resulting in higher valuations for internet companies, even those operating at a loss. Increasing valuations are crucial to our financial strategy.

Key Financial Indicators

The following benchmarks demonstrate ambitious sales growth alongside corresponding increases in operating expenses. Our goal is to improve inventory ratios, payment terms, and collection periods. Leveraging internet technology as our primary sales and marketing channel allows for high sales growth without corresponding increases in operating expenses.

Break-even Analysis

The break-even analysis is a useful financial indicator. The table and chart below illustrate break-even based on monthly sales and fixed costs. With these assumptions, we reach break-even by the end of the first year.

Break-even Analysis

—————————————-

Monthly Units Break-even: 8,948

Monthly Revenue Break-even: $264,916

Assumptions:

—————————————-

Average Per-Unit Revenue: $29.61

Average Per-Unit Variable Cost: $11.84

Estimated Monthly Fixed Cost: $158,950

Projected Profit and Loss

—————————————-

Despite the current trend of encouraging losses for website businesses, we believe that we can turn a profit by the third year. We also aim to significantly reduce losses in the second year, as shown in the following table. However, the investment in online and offline advertising is substantial, and the traffic justifies the loss.

Pro Forma Profit and Loss:

Projected Cash Flow:

In this venture, cash flow is mainly supported by new capital from additional rounds of financing.

Projected Balance Sheet

The balance sheet shows our projected financial position during the next three years. Obviously the key variable during this period, overall valuation, isn’t shown.

Business Ratios

Our ratios, as projected here, are typical of the kind of growth company we project. The comparisons are based on NAICS code 454111, Electronic Shopping. We do expect our gross margin and sales per employee to be much higher than standard retail.
