Secondary Research
Growth Potential- 2 Years from now I hope to be able expand my staff to five camp counselors and 100+ kids attending my camp.
2 Major Competitors: Varsity Soccer Camp, YMCA
My competitive advantage is that I have a different sport every day and it is with kids from all around the area.
Secondary Research- ContinuedMore than
12,000 day and resident camps exist in the US
Each year more than 11 million children and adults attend camp
The number of day camps in the US has grown by 90% in the past 20 years
Of the estimated 12,000 camps in the US, approximately 7,000 are resident camps and 5,000 are day camps
Secondary Research - Continued Benefits
• Physical activity and exercise• Ability to build skills not
taught in most schools• Increased sense of
independence and confidence due to being away from home
• Competitive edge for college and future careers
• Enhanced social dexterity as kids get out of the house
Having kids go to camp is a good way to get rid of the kids while you work
and allows them to become independent while having a blast at
summer camp
Market Research
There are plenty of families that can afford a more expensive camp for their kid so I can start with skimming
POPULATION
Twitter Poll
Twitter Poll - ContinuedPrimary Research Results1. The information that I
gathered shows me that I will definatly need to lower my prices because they are to high even though I am doing skimming strategy. It shows me I could change my sports a little bit too to have different sports than what I have. Also that I made the right move by having a different sport each day.
2. This will change my marketing strategy because I will need to change my price as well as the sports on specific days.
SWOT
