Task 2 Investigating a Business Opportunity
Executive Summary
This report investigates the opportunity to expand XYZ Dance Studio's offerings to include hip hop dance classes and performances. Market research found there is strong demand for hip hop dance among teenagers that is currently not being met locally. A SWOT analysis determined I have the relevant skills and experience to teach hip hop successfully. Subject to addressing some start-up costs, it is recommended that XYZ Dance Studio pursues this opportunity to diversify its business and attract new customers.
Description of the Business Opportunity
XYZ Dance Studio currently offers classes and performances in ballet, jazz, tap and musical theatre dance. There is an opportunity to address the void in the local dance market by expanding to hip hop dance (Baker et al., 2019). Hip hop is one of the fastest growing dance genres worldwide and appealing to teenagers (Thomas, 2018). My background in hip hop dance and qualifications make me well placed to teach these new classes.
Market Analysis
We hear “Can you write in APA or MLA?” all the time—yes, and more! Our writers master every style—APA, MLA, Harvard, etc.—delivering flawless formatting for you.
Surveys of 50 local teenagers found that 30 were interested in hip hop classes. Competitor research showed no other studio locally offers hip hop. Industry reports indicate hip hop participation is rising 10% annually as it becomes more mainstream (Smith, 2020).
Market Trends
Hip hop has grown from an underground culture into a new dance market. It is most popular with teenagers and young adults (Jones, 2017). The dance market is projected to grow 5-10% over the next 5 years as more people participate in dance for exercise and enjoyment (Roberts, 2021).
Capability Assessment
Strengths: Qualified hip hop teacher, large network in local dance community
Weaknesses: Limited initial budget, no prior business experience
Opportunities: Unmet local demand, potential for performances
Threats: Start-up costs, competition from bigger studios
Opportunity Viability
The local dance market analysis showed strong potential demand among teenagers for hip hop classes. Financial projections estimate the classes can break even within a year. My skills and experience reduce business risks. Offering hip hop diversifies XYZ's business and attracts new customers. Subject to securing start-up funding, this opportunity is viable.
Conclusion and Recommendation
In conclusion, there is market need and opportunity for XYZ Dance Studio to expand into hip hop dance classes and performances. My market research and capability assessment indicate I have the experience required. I recommend XYZ pursues this opportunity to diversify its business and attract new customers, subject to addressing initial funding needs.
