manufacturing enterprise to assist the company in supplying

approximately 2 years. Heaven Driven will generate net profit
margin about 8.7% on average over five years with return on

• Almost essential for sexual activity
• Available in many sizes, colors, and flavor to attract more
consumers
• Increasing awareness and increasing of sales
• Using condom to avoid HIV

affects the company image and credit.
• Unable to advertise directly
• Surrogate advertisement for condom
• Social, culture, and traditional hindrances
• Not 100% completely guarantee on pregnancy control
• Easy for duplication in product designs
O – Opportunities
• Rapidly advancing technology makes manufacturing more
efficient, less costly and more effort can be placed on

life.

Heaven Driven Business Plan | 7

• Limitation of brand loyalty

Fives Force Analysis

Bargaining power of Substitute products


suppliers <Low> <Low>
Rivalry
<Medium>
Bargaining power of
Threats of new
buyers <High> entrance <High>

1. Bargaining power of suppliers <Low>


• In Thailand, there are quite a few manufacturers
who are engaged in producing condom that we can hire them
to produce our products. Nevertheless, it is necessary for us
to control the quality of the products to meet our required
standards and most of those manufacturers have the
guarantee standard. Thus, we can choose among them to be
our successive manufacturer or in this case our supplier.
2. Bargaining power of buyers <High>
• The switching cost is really low due to the fact
that consumers mostly do not really care which brand of
condom they are using. Therefore, we can carefully predict
that the brand loyalty is quite low. Furthermore, they tend to
switch the brand of condom easily, depending on such factors
like, price and accessibility.
3. Rivalry <Medium>
• There are quite a few competitors that already
exist in the industry of condom market. Beside, the cost of
entry into this business is relatively low. Potentially, this event
will also attract new comers to enter into this market, as well.
4. Substitute products <Low>
• Even though there are a few ways to be used in
order to have the birth control; for example, birth control pill,
counting days, etc. None of them can prevent you from
venereal disease, like condom. Hence, there is no product
that can substitute condom totally.
5. Threats of new entrance <High>
Heaven Driven Business Plan | 8

• In order to enter into the industry of condom business, you do


not need much of capital or the initial investment so the cost
of entry is quite low. Also, in Thailand, there is no law or
regulation that prohibits the investment in this business.
Consequently, there is relatively low barrier of entry into this
type of business.

Market Strategy

Advertising Method
We are offering free product samples in the advertising
method in the beginning stage of launching our products. In
addition, we select the “World Aids Day” and other related events as
the appropriate times for introducing our products and showing our
dedicated supports for the “Poktoong” campaign as well. Since, we
are hoping that these events would definitely give us an opportunity
to attract people and probably make our target market aware of our
products. Consequently, they may be interested in purchasing
condoms.

The next step is to place advertisement in newspaper,


magazine, spot radio, and through guideline websites since we also
have our own website for customers to search for information of the
products if they are interested. Moreover, after-sales services are
available such as online live chat for the customers to comment of
the product quality and online guidelines regarding sex and condom
usage. In addition, the product will be joined with the physician
prescription (Dr).

We are also planning to distribute our products to other


provinces as well; the same advertising method would also be used
at the opening stage of the expansion of the products.

Value Chain Management

Primary Activities:
1. Inbound logistics
• Heaven Driven will select high quality raw
materials from the reliable source and order a manufacturing
enterprise to produce condoms on behalf of us which always
provide the higher quality of the products.
• We also use the Make-to-stock process which
means we will stock the raw materials such as plastics and
latex at the right amount (according to the forecasting).
Therefore, our condoms are always available for the
customers to purchase. Moreover, we can save more cost.
• According to the Make-to-stock process, we will
deliver the products periodically like once a week or once a
month.
2. Operations
• After receiving the unfinished product from the manufacturer,
the company will randomly test the quality of the product
which will take place in the laboratory room.
• After that, the sales and marketing department will create the
strategy to distribute the product to all customers, such as,
how to launch/introduce the new product to attract the most
customers.
• The product will be sent to repack in a new package which will
be more attractive to be ready to sales.
• Under the planning, the financial department must provide the
information about sales and marketing budget to sales and
marketing department in order to let them know how much
budget they have to deal with.
• Then, launch the product to the market with the grand event
to attract and customer and to build brand image.
3. Outbound logistics
• As the company manages our own distribution, delivery is one
of the most important mechanisms to the company. The
delivery must always be on time in order to reach the
H e a v e n D r i v e n B u s i n e s s P l a n | 17

standard. The product will be carried by truck to the final


customer such as to the hospital, the club.
• For the retailer, there will be a small truck response to the
delivery in order to separate the work and to reduce the
degree of confusion in working to the workers.
4. Marketing and Sales
• For advertising, Heaven Driven will promote the
products by using newspaper, magazine, spot radio, and
through guideline websites.
• For promotion, we will offer free sample products
or run promotional campaigns on every special occasion such
as Valentine’s Day, Songkran Festival, Loy Krathong Festival,
Christmas holiday, and New Year.
• The marketing and sales department will create
the marketing plan for the products. (see Marketing and Sales
part)
5. Service
• Delivery time to the customer must be exactly no delay with
the full guarantee for anti-protection of the product.
• After sales service, as the company create the website for the
customer not only to give comment to the company, but also
the website provides the useful information about the sexual
behavior and how to use the product correctly to achieve the
high product benefit, the company has to provide valuable
information for the customer in order to maintain the order.
• All sales representatives are required to arrange the “meet
and greet” with the customer in order to maintain the
relationship and also create a good-will to the company
toward both existing and new customer.
• The General Manager requires arranging “meet and greet” to
the main customer such as the hospital, to inform the
customer about the company operation in order for the
customer to ensure that our product meets/maintain the
standard.

Supporting Activities
Information Technology
H e a v e n D r i v e n B u s i n e s s P l a n | 18

• Create the website for the convenience of the customers


for information of the range of products.
• Also setting up the production system for the
implementation of delivering condoms.

Total Quality Management (TQM)

Total quality management is the worldwide system that is


widely used by many companies around the world. So we will apply
this system to our products in order to manage the whole system of
our company to be more effective and reliable for all customers so
that we can make sure we provide our customers with high quality
condoms sold.

Our company will determine the core of this system from the
top management level to the bottom in order to make the system
effective and reliable for the customers.

Moreover, we implements the Total Quality Management


basing on the three important bases which are

1. Continuous improvement
• Using the quality control process by improving the process
of producing the condoms since the beginning stage to the
final stage.
2. Employee involvement
• Allow all employees to participate in the TQM system by
improving their morale.
3. Customer satisfaction
• Focusing on both packaging and quality of condoms in
order to decrease the defects finished goods as much as
possible. To create better customer satisfaction on our
condoms.

Quality
• Heaven’s driven is the distributor of new types of
condom so we will create and design new innovative products
and then order them through the main five condom
manufacturer in Thailand which are Sure tech company, Thai
H e a v e n D r i v e n B u s i n e s s P l a n | 19

Nippon Rubber Industry company, Thai High Gene Product


company, Siam Ogamoto company and SSL manufacturing
(Thailand) company.
• Furthermore, we have deal with these companies which
point out that there are six main the process of condom
production which are:
1. Compounding
2. Dipping
3. Tumbling
4. Electronic Testing
5. Rolling and Packaging
6. Quality Control
These processes will certainly control the quality of production
since filtering raw materials then controlling quality during
production until checking the finished product for defection.
• As a result of the best standard that Heaven
Driven will get from these companies is that they will lead to
the high standard process of making each condom perfectly
offered to the customers.
• Since we perceive that these companies are
the specialists in producing condom and they maintain their
reputation for long time, so we can assure that our products
which are produced by these companies certainly have high
standard and perfect quality.

H e a v e n D r i v e n B u s i n e s s P l a n | 20

Cost
• In order to compete successfully, we pay
attention on taking care of customer satisfaction as a top
priority in business operations. To achieve it, one key success
we must concentrate on is costs efficiency.
• At the early period of new brand introduction, it
is just stage that a lot of costs are committed such as
advertising, promotion, defected condom and etc. In addition,
it is necessary to possess precise information on costs. We
therefore use target cost which this method gives precise
information on costs.
• Our main strategy is “do it right the first time”.
It is cheaper to produce the items correctly the first time,
rather than to waste resources producing substandard items.
Also, we mainly emphasize on "design and build quality in,
rather that trying to inspect and repair it and warranty repairs
are eliminated. That result in cost reduction.

Morale
• In order to motivate employees to stay with us and to do a
good work by making them feel like they are a part of the
family within the company. Whereby they would feel
comfortable working in the company. Moreover, by providing
them with benefits that they deserve and some incentives
would also create happiness in working with the company. The
incentives include 1) offer bonus for every employee in the
company every year, 2) reward some gifts for every employee
during celebration of company’s anniversary in order to show
them that we appreciate their efforts and good work.

Government Regulations

Consumer protection
Due to our business is to provide a wide range of condoms;
therefore we have to provide it not only with good quality and safety
but also its value must be added for the consumers.

Juristic person registration


H e a v e n D r i v e n B u s i n e s s P l a n | 21

In order to operate easier, we would register our Heaven


Driven Company as a juristic person. This will aid us especially with
the financial management such as applying for loan from the bank,
payment, etc.

Commercial license
Because we are opening a business, we need to apply for the
commercial license from the government to operate our business.
The application for the commercial license needs to be done within
30 days starting from the day of operation.

Protection of Intellectual Property Rights

Trademarks
We will register our company trademark to identify the origin
of a company or to distinguish it from other companies.

Conclusion

The indicator of Heaven Driven’s accomplishment is the


revolutionary range of condoms that targeting on men, particularly
teenagers and providing softer and much more flexible as they are
clinically proven to enhance sensation and combine the strength of
premium latex with the sensitivity of ultra-thin condoms. In short, it
feels like the closest thing to wearing nothing.

Moreover, we are launching “Gimme More” which is


considered to be the ultimate selection of Heaven Driven’s condoms
with intense and extra pleasure ribbed offering sensations which are
unique and perfect for both partners.

In the near future, we also plan that we will organize a


‘Condom Fashion Show by Heaven Driven’ which allows university
students to demonstrate their creativity using our products to
design the clothes. The objectives of this event are to make people
becoming aware of safe-sex, to entertain and fill them with related
knowledge, and to promote our products as well.

Heaven Driven is also provides an easy access to information


about the products which is our location and the website that we
created for the convenience of our customers.
H e a v e n D r i v e n B u s i n e s s P l a n | 30

Based on our financial estimation, we are generating the net


profit in the first year with the payback period of approximately 2
years and 1 month which is quite good considering having to pay off
the long-term debt at the same time whereby this debt would be
paid off with in 3 years.

Therefore, based of our information gathered, researches,


planning, and analysis, we strongly believe that “Heaven Driven” is
a potentially successful business.

Appendix 1: Condom Information (The article from


TeensHealth)

What Is It?

Condoms are a barrier method of contraception. There are male


condoms and female condoms. A male condom is a thin sheath
(usually made of latex, a type of rubber) that is worn on the penis. A
female condom is a polyurethane sheath with a flexible ring at
either end. One end is closed and inserted into the vagina; the other
end is open and the ring sits outside the opening of the vagina. The
male condom, sometimes called a "rubber" or "prophylactic," is far
more commonly used.

How Does It Work?

Condoms work by keeping semen (the


fluid that contains sperm) from entering
the vagina. The male condom is placed on
H e a v e n D r i v e n B u s i n e s s P l a n | 32

a guy's penis when it becomes erect. It is unrolled all the way to the
base of the penis while holding the tip of the condom to leave some
extra room at the end. This creates a space for semen after
ejaculation and makes it less likely that the condom will break.

After the guy ejaculates, he should hold the condom at the base of
the penis as he pulls out of the vagina. He must do this while the
penis is still erect to prevent the condom from slipping off when he
gets soft. If this happens, sperm could enter the vagina.

Condom Precautions

Once a condom is used, it cannot be reused. A new condom should


be used each time you have sex — and it must be used from start to
finish every time you have sex to prevent pregnancy and sexually
transmitted diseases (STDs). Never use oil-based lubricants such as
mineral oil, petroleum jelly, or baby oil with condoms because these
substances can break down the rubber. A used condom should be
thrown in the garbage, not down the toilet.

And if a condom ever seems dry, sticky, or stiff when it comes out of
the package, or if it is past its expiration date, throw it away and use
a new one. It's a good idea to have several condoms on hand in
case there is a problem with one. It's best to store unused condoms
in a cool, dry place.

How Well Does It Work?

Over the course of a year, 15 out of 100 typical couples who rely on
male condoms alone to prevent pregnancy will have an accidental
pregnancy. The use of the female condom is a little less reliable and
21 out of 100 couples will have an unintended pregnancy.

Of course, these are average figures and the chance of getting


pregnant depends on whether you use condoms correctly every
time you have sex.

The most common reason that condoms "fail" is that the couple fails
to use one at all. Still, it is possible for a condom to break or slip
during intercourse. Condoms can also be damaged by things like
fingernails and body piercings.
H e a v e n D r i v e n B u s i n e s s P l a n | 33

Experts used to think that using spermicide with a condom would


decrease the pregnancy rate as well as help fight against STIs.
However, more recent information indicates that this is not
necessarily true and spermicide does not help make condoms more
effective.

In general, how well each type of birth control method works


depends on a lot of things. One factor is whether the method chosen
is convenient — and whether the person remembers to use it
correctly all the time.

Protection Against STIs

Most male condoms are made of latex. Those made of lambskin


may offer less protection against some STIs, including HIV/AIDS, so
use of latex condoms is recommended. For people who may have an
allergic skin reaction to latex, both male and female condoms made
of polyurethane are available.

When properly used, latex and


polyurethane condoms are effective
against most STIs. Condoms do not
protect against infections spread from
sores on the skin not covered by a
condom (such as the base of the penis or
scrotum). For those having sex, condoms
must always be used to protect against
STIs even when using another method of
birth control.

Abstinence (not having sex) is the only method that always


prevents pregnancy and STIs.

Possible Side Effects

Most men and women have no problems using condoms. Side


effects that can occasionally occur include:

• Allergy to latex condoms.


• Irritation of the penis or the vagina from spermicides or
lubricants that some condoms are treated with.
H e a v e n D r i v e n B u s i n e s s P l a n | 34

ADVANTAGES

• Condoms may help men who have trouble keeping an


erection, and may help prolong the erection.
• They protect against pregnancy and sexually transmitted
diseases.

DISADVANTAGES

• A few men cannot keep an erection after putting on a


condom.
• Allergic reactions to latex condoms are rare, but they do
occur. (Changing to condoms made of polyurethane or
animal membranes may help.)
• Friction of the condom may reduce stimulation of the
clitorus and lubrication, making intercourse less enjoyable or
even uncomfortable. (Lubricated condoms may reduce this
problem.)
• Intercourse also may be less pleasurable because the
man must pull out his penis right after ejaculation.
• The woman is not aware of warm fluid entering her body
(important to some women, not to others).

Who Uses It?

Couples who are responsible enough to stop and put a condom on


each time before sex and people who want protection against STIs
use condoms. Because condoms are the only method of birth
control currently available for men, they allow the guy to take
responsibility for birth control and STI protection. Condoms are also
a good choice for people who do not have a lot of money to spend
on birth control.

How Do You Get It?

Condoms are available without a prescription and are sold in


drugstores, supermarkets, and even vending machines (in some
H e a v e n D r i v e n B u s i n e s s P l a n | 35

stores, they're in the "Family Planning" aisle). Condoms come in


different sizes, textures, and colors.

How Much Does It Cost?

Condoms are the least expensive and most available method of


birth control — other than abstinence, of course. Male condoms cost
about ฿20 to ฿50 each and are less expensive when they are bought
in boxes that contain several condoms.

IMPORTANT TIPS

• Make sure condoms are available and convenient. If no


condoms are handy at the time of a sexual encounter, you
may be tempted to have intercourse without one.
• Carefully withdraw the penis right after ejaculation so
that semen cannot leak out of the condom as the erection is
lost.
• Use each condom only once.
• Do not carry condoms in your wallet for long periods of
time. Replace them every once in a while. Friction from
opening and closing your wallet and from walking (if you
carry your wallet in your pocket) can lead to tiny holes in the
condom. Nevertheless, it is better to use a condom that has
been in your wallet for a long time than to not use one at all.
• Don't use a condom that is brittle, sticky, or discolored.
These are signs of age, and old condoms are more likely to
break.
• If a condom package is damaged, don't use the condom
because it also may be damaged.
• Do not use a petroleum-based substance such as
Vaseline as a lubricant. These substances break down latex,
the material in some condoms.
• If you feel a condom break during intercourse, stop right
away and put on a new one. Remember, ejaculation does not
have to occur for a pregnancy to result (pre-ejaculatory
fluids can contain active sperm), or for a disease to be
transmitted.
• If ejaculation occurs with a broken condom, insert a
spermicidal foam or jelly to help reduce the risk of
H e a v e n D r i v e n B u s i n e s s P l a n | 36

pregnancy or passing an STD. You can also contact your


health care provider or pharmacy about emergency
contraception ("morning-after pills").
• Store condoms in a cool, dry place away from sunlight
and heat.

Appendix 2: Research on Condom Use

Condom use is often seen as a tipping point in the success of HIV-


AIDS education and prevention. This section describes the literature
on the effectiveness of condoms in the prevention of HIV and AIDS.

Here are the facts, to date:

Consistent condom use is the most effective way to reduce


exposure to HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases among
sexually-active individuals. Two major, international health agencies
(World Health Organization and UNAIDS) are standing by
recommendations for condom use as a means to prevent
transmission of HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted disease
(STDs).

There are no marketed microbicides or vaccines (with the exception


of the Hepatitis B vaccine) for the prevention of sexually-transmitted
diseases.

Latex condoms have demonstrated significant protection against


diseases transmitted via penile-vaginal intercourse. STDs studied
are: HIV infection, gonorrhea, chlamydial infection, [including
gonococcal and chlamydial pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)],
syphilis, chancroid, trichomoniasis, genital herpes caused by herpes
simplex viruses (HSV) 1 and 2, and genital human papillomavirus
(HPV) infection and HPV diseases.

Resistance to Condom Use

One of the most controversial issues in prevention education is the


varying responses towards use of condoms. The body of literature
on the subject points to cultural and religious taboos; psychological
implications (such as illusions of safety); views about condom
H e a v e n D r i v e n B u s i n e s s P l a n | 37

effectiveness; increased risk behaviors correlating to promising


research on treatment; and issues of male aversion. We shall
address these responses below.

Condom Use

In the United States, where condom availability is pervasive, only


58% of sexually active youth use condoms.

Young people give the following reasons why they do not use
condoms: a) embarrassment; b) a belief that it may affect sexual
performance; c) concerns that a partner may be suspicious if a
young man puts on a condom; d) an unrealistic optimism in one's
personal risk of contracting HIV and other STDs.

The reason for unrealistic optimism may be due to several factors,


not the least of which is a sense that by underestimating one's risk,
a young man or woman can reduce the anxiety. It may seem to be
counter-intuitive at first, but the greater the anxiety the young
people feel, some studies show, the less chance there is that they
will use a condom, for they fight fear by building up a psychological
wall of protection. Such denial of vulnerability is not uncommon;
many populations avoid uncomfortable emotions associated with
health problems, an issue that is surely exacerbated in settings
where health care options and treatment facilities are limited.

In developed countries, the introduction of more sophisticated drug


therapies in HIV Positive treatment may be contributing to a rise of
infections and risk-taking behaviors. Young people may rationalize
that AIDS is treatable.

Role models (movie stars and sports figures) have engaged in a


public relations campaign to restore pride and dignity to HIV-
infected people ("I am Positive"). While such a campaign may be
essential to ensure civil rights and active participation in society, an
unintended consequence may be the elevation of one's HIV-Positive
diagnosis as a status symbol.

In Thailand, only about 25 percent of young men report using


condoms when engaging in casual or risky sex, often because they
H e a v e n D r i v e n B u s i n e s s P l a n | 38

do not view sex with other young people as risky. While young
people were aware of the risks of HIV, they often lacked access to
life-skills training and services that would help them translate
knowledge into behavioural change. They didn't know, for instance,
how to negotiate condom use with a reluctant partner.

Addressing Resistance to Condom Use – 2 Studies

There are several HIV-AIDS programs designed to change behavior.


Some focus on facts where little information is available. Others try
to infuse frightening messages about HIV-AIDS. Still others
integrate the personal elements (showing the effect of knowing
someone with AIDS on one's own behavior, for example).

Each HIV-AIDS program must be designed with evaluation


techniques that use consistently accurate appropriate dependent
and independent variables and analyses that can quantify the
connection between education programs and changes in behavior.

As was shown in the Topic: "Resistance to Condom Use," attempts


have been made to reduce feelings of invulnerability so that young
people do not engage in unprotected sex. The key is to integrate
factual material with personal identification and
engagement in order for the lessons to run deep.

Two studies have been conducted with young people to determine


the clues and strategies for helping them change their behavior.
We have chosen to focus on these two approaches to HIV-AIDS
education because they integrate personal engagement and good
teaching. We stress that the creative presentation of programmatic
materials is as important as the factual presentation of materials.

In the first approach, researchers focused on whether or not


young people really "knew" about a person's HIV status, based upon
a look at photographs and that person's brief statement about
his/her sexual history. Many students were unable to produce an
accurate score of HIV Negative and HIV Positive people. This study
was based upon the idea that a student's sudden confrontation with
his or her failed perceptions would change behavior. In this case,
such a change would result in not relying on appearance and a
H e a v e n D r i v e n B u s i n e s s P l a n | 39

statement from a potential partner. Protection would then take


place as a matter of course.

It has been suggested that the study using photographs


take on longitudinal elements by following the lives of
young people pictured in the photographs for several
months or years. In this way, several variables can be
studied, including: a) a longer term analysis of the staying
power of the exercise itself - is it continuing to work? b) a
reinforcing of the point, such that subsequent groups of
students participating in the photo-identification project
could see the deterioration in the lives, over time, of those
infected by HIV. A seemingly bright and beautiful face one
day then turns into the face of disease.

In the second approach, researchers focused on negative health


events as a compelling way of demonstrating a willingness to use
condoms. In such cases, young people spoke about the STDs
contracted. In addition, a 20-minute video was shown. Studies have
shown an initial commitment to use protection, though it is not
entirely clear whether or not the pressures surrounding participation
in the study itself may not have had an effect on young people, who
may feel pressured to provide the "appropriate," rather than the
truthful, answer.

Both approaches were followed up by questionnaires at


three and six months asking whether or not the young
people had been sexually active in the intervening time and
the degree to which they intend to use condoms.

FINDINGS & FOLLOW-UP

The intention of both studies is to reduce feelings of


invulnerability and increase condom use. Both approaches
showed demonstrable effects in reducing feelings of invulnerability
and increasing the intention to use condoms. The results of this
"stand-alone" intervention may be limited to some degree. The
message remains. The teenagers' lack of ability to guess accurately
the health of those in the photographs translated into a sense that:
H e a v e n D r i v e n B u s i n e s s P l a n | 40

a) they may be wrong; b) the picture they viewed could, perhaps,


one day be of them.

Future studies are being tested to overcome obstacles to condom


use that extend beyond the perceptions of teenagers - availability in
numbers and ease of access, social stigmas, myths about condoms,
for example.

The post study is as important as the study itself, for the


questionnaire itself is explicit about questions directed to young
people about their own sexual behavior. These private issues are
public insofar as the young people are participating in such a study
and the follow-up surveys, which acknowledge their sexual activity.
(We do not know what the drop-out rate is to determine the degree
to which fear of such questions may have frightened some
participants away.)

A conclusion that can be made, however (based upon a larger body


of research in adolescent psychology) is that threatening or
frightening images or programs showing the connection to and
consequences of a particular behavior (in this case, unprotected
sex) have been marginally effective, but short term. Recent studies
have shown success in mitigating cigarette smoking amongst teens
by showing dirty lungs, but the effects do not last because such
messages are not personalized. Even more, some young people
resist such messages as authoritarian and, therefore, go in the
opposite direction - toward greater risk taking.
