IV. Instructions: Marketing Plan
1. Market research
This industry has high popularity and has the potential to do great good. According to the
primary data (see the survey on appendixes), the total trends in the industry is growing. The total
size of target market is large. We can see that many of young people are interested in Hanfu and
Hanfu designing. The trend in the target market is growing, too. Because the culture of Hanfu
spreads with a fast speed, more and more young people are willing to participate it.
From the secondary data, we can find that drawing software, such as Photoshop, PS, Adobe
image and other software are not very easy to be used. Up to now, we only can find one similarly
software in the Internet. Therefore, our software is unique at present. There is no similar software
can compete with us. So the Projected market share is 70%.
2. Barriers to entry
Because of the company is a small studio, it cannot raise money by loan. As we know, publish
the software on Steam is free, so we dont need raise money for publishing. Or if Greenlight fails
on steam, we can use the kickstarter or Modian to raise fund.
What is more, followers will lead to bad competition and affect the development and balance of
the game market. And some people also may use the lowest price is used to attract consumers to
buy the pirated software, so as to reduce profits, and then create malicious competition and
