1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

We chose to open a laundromat that offers a variety of superior services with the aim of
providing consumers with reliable machines and a clean, pleasant environment at an affordable
price. Consequently, we branded our laundry service Bubble Fresh Laundry. The target market
for this laundry business is students and every home in the immediate neighborhood of No. 33,
Jalan Bidara 10, Saujana Utama 3, 47000 Sungai Buloh, Selangor that requires laundry service.

There are other laundry services available, but what makes Bubble Fresh Laundry stand
out is that we offer conveniences such as a phone charging station, free Wi-Fi, coffee machine
and reading section. We distinguish ourselves from other dobby services by providing a higher
level of cleaning to our clients. Furthermore, we provide machines of superior quality. When it
comes to washing the garments of our customers, we spare no effort.

We can envision our business expanding and prospering. Modern individuals are so
consumed with their routines that they lack the time to wash their clothing. Popular with university
students (UiTM Puncak Alam), busy workers, and locals. We intend to start by establishing as
many branches as possible in Selangor, and then work our way up to the top of Malaysia. We
also aim to increase the quality of our work by ensuring customer satisfaction.

3.0 ENVIRONMENTAL INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

3.1 The overall nature of the industry

The nature of the industry for our laundry services is Personal Care Services. This
means that our company has provided the services of washing the clothing and other
textiles, and, more broadly, drying, folding, and ironing services as well. Other than that,
our company is confident in providing convenient facilities such as a coffee machine and
providing a reading section for the customers to read some books or novels that we put
there while waiting for their clothes. This actively demonstrates that the customer will not
feel bored and have nothing to do as there are some other things that they can do instead
of sitting in one place. Based on our facilities, it shows that the customers would love to
come to “Bubble Fresh Laundry” in terms of the services that we provide and the
uniqueness inside our shop that captivates their attention and makes them comfortable
and happy by using our facilities.

In addition, one of the strengths that we got to run for the business is when we
think about the people who do not have their own washing machine at home. This
includes the people that live nearby Puncak Alam, a residential area, and the students
who stayed at UiTM Puncak Alam. In this situation, these target markets are the ones who
help us to increase our sales even though we are still a new laundry shop in that area. To
illustrate, every year our company has received a total amount of RM580,000.00 as our
revenue. The sales get better each year because the group of students frequently uses
our services, especially during their final exams since they are all busy. Not only that, but
our laundry area is also the strategic place to start up the business. It is because our
laundry shop is located at the center of the rows by the shop lots. So, everyone will
acknowledge and notice our laundry shop’s existence from a far.

Other than that, laundry services is a well-known service that has been used by
people in Malaysia. There are so many reasons why they choose to use laundry services
because of the high-quality cleaning materials and methods that have been provided by
us. Unfortunately, there are also quite a number of competitors in laundry services in
Malaysia since this industry has a constant demand for clean clothes. For example, our
competitors are Laundrybar, Mr. Clean, and AquaNano. All these companies are
competing for the same services that they provide. However, to differentiate our company

7
from them is the facilities that we provide for the customer and how we treat the customer
needs in terms for us to fulfill their demand. By doing so, our laundry services can sustain
every year without fail even though we are still new in this field.

3.2 Note Trend

Note trend is a trend simply reflects what seems to be going around at any given
time. A trend can occur everywhere and is not just related to entertainment, pop culture,
or fashion but it can be related to the current trend, economic trend, and seasonal trend.
There are three note trends that involve our business which is laundry services that will
be explained below.
`
3.2.1 Current Trends

First and foremost, for our laundry business, getting to know the current trends is
the most important thing that we should prioritize. So, for our laundry shop, we have
provided a coffee machine inside the corner of the shop. This is because we want to
make sure that our customers fulfill their time and have a cup of coffee while waiting for
their clothes to be done. Apart from that, indirectly we can generate side income from that.
Next, to follow the current trend, we also provide a reading section for the customers
who like to read books and novels. Because of this, the customer will not feel bored but
also can gain knowledge by reading some books. Then, our business has followed the
trend where we provide a cashless payment that can make it easier for the customer
when they want to make a payment. They can just bring their debit card to the dobby and
pay with it while not having to worry about changing the notes to the coins. By having this
method, we can enhance our improvement in these laundry services.

3.2.2 Economic Trends

After that, the trend that will be done by our business is the economic trend. Firstly,
this situation will happen where there is high demand from the UiTM students who want
to use our services. This is because our laundry is located near the UiTM Puncak Alam.
They need to use these laundry services because inside their University, there are not
enough washing machines and they also do not provide any dryer to dry their clothes. So,

8
the students will concentrate on our laundry services to wash their clothes. Additionally,
our profit will be generated by the parents that are too busy with their work until they
do not have time to settle for their laundry. As for this, they will come to our laundry twice
a week to do their laundry especially during the weekend. They also do not have to worry
about the detergent and softener since everything is provided in our laundry that is suitable
and friendly-user for those who are busy. Lastly, the residents' area that lacks laundry
services will focus on our laundry near their houses. This situation happened because
the Puncak Alam area does not have as much self service laundry as our Bubble Fresh
Laundry but there are lots of laundries that have workers to wash the customer’s clothes.
Because of that, some customers do not prefer to use that service, instead they want to
have self service by themselves since it is much easier for them to wash their own clothes.
Hence, this is indeed that economic trends are helpful to increase our revenue in this
business.

3.2.3 Seasonal Trends

Furthermore, when it comes to seasonal trends, everyone frequently uses laundry


services especially when it is monsoon season which leads to floods in Malaysia. This
happened because of the heavy rainfall and the customers will have a problem drying
clothes quickly and will face the process of dealing with wet clothes. In this situation, there
are many people around who will come to our Bubble Fresh Laundry to wash their clothes.
This is because the customers will be able to spend less time drying their clothes in the
laundry instead of drying the clothes at home which will take a long time with the humid
weather. In addition, the next season is during the special festival in Malaysia, our
laundry will be open 24 hours for the customers to wash their clothes. So, the family who
will go back to their hometown which is in Puncak Alam area will likely use our services at
that time because of the overloaded unwashed clothes. This is because they will come to
our laundry to wash their clothes that have been used during the festival. By doing so,
everyone can do laundry at any time without having to worry about the celebration that
they need to celebrate. Therefore, there are many customers who will come to wash their
clothes in our laundry due to floods during the monsoon season because the Selangor
area has frequently experienced floods in recent years, and the customers that celebrate
the special festive in Malaysia.

3.3 Key Success Factors In An Industry

Key success factors are the elements of an organization's operations that are
essential to determining its success in its industry. These components are a group of areas
that companies can enhance in order to provide better customer service and stay ahead
of the competition. A company's fundamental business functions, including management,
labor, operations, marketing, and financing, are key success elements. By comprehending
key success characteristics, we may assess an organization's performance in a certain
sector rapidly. Regarding Bubble Fresh Laundry, it is a laundry service that acknowledged
a number of key factors in this sector, including:

● Strategic Focus - A knowledgeable and strategic manager is necessary for an


industrial service to achieve high sales. Choosing a speciality for the firm, setting
capacity goals for the laundry industry, and effectively planning for future goals are
a few examples of critical success factors. It is Nur Syaza Wirdani binti Razali,
General Manager of Bubble Fresh Laundry, who had the idea to open this
laundromat with a unique selling point from its rivals.

● Human Resource - It is typical for self-service laundries to just have one to three
laundry attendants. Key success elements for the washing industry include
improving the hiring procedure, and offering non-cash compensation. Three shop
assistants are employed by Bubble Fresh Laundry to assist with labor and
customer service, and their roles are well defined to prevent any misconceptions.

● Marketing - Marketing is crucial for laundry service businesses since they are
always in demand. Offering discounts, experimenting with various marketing
channels, and rewarding larger purchases are all crucial success factors in this
industry. Tik Tok, Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter are just a few of the social
media channels that Bubble Fresh Laundry uses to advertise its goods and
services to customers. Customers are also given leaflets and posters as part of a
more effective marketing plan.

13
4.2 Problems That Our Company’s Services can Solve

The laundry business run by our company can solve various problems faced by
people who are smart in pleasing their work when they are busy. There are examples of
a situation that our company can solve.

1) People who do not have time to do laundry. Laundry services are an excellent way
to save time for those who cannot find the time to wash their clothes at home. For
instance, people who are busy working, working housewives and students. Customers
would have to take time off from work since they would have to wait for hours. So that,
customers no longer have to wait around for their laundry to be finished. Usually, it takes
little time, so they may multitask while doing their laundry.

2) Too many clothes to wash. Sometimes those who work do not have time to wash
their clothes, they will collect their clothes within a week. That is too much for the washing
machine to hold. If not, they need to be washed two or three times. That will take a long
time. So, the best option is to wash in the laundry. As another example, if a family has just
returned from vacation, they must have a lot of dirty clothes, indirectly they will surely use
the laundry service because our laundry not only wash but also dry quickly, folding and
ironing service as well.

3) Those people who do not have a washing machine at home. Washing machines is
important for every household. However, there are also those who do not have a washing
machine. For example, if they live alone. Students who live in college or rented houses
also rarely have a washing machine in their place. Here, all your problems will be solved
with our laundry business. Not only that, we also provide drying, folding and ironing
services for your clothes. That will make your daily work easier.

4) Eco-friendly and practical option. Self-service laundry machines are a more


environmentally friendly choice because our laundry machines use less water and energy
than home laundry appliances. These machines are more environmentally friendly than
other solutions for washing clothing because they also consume less water. Our laundry
service's machines are user-friendly and come with instructions to help customers select
the best settings for washing and drying their items.

14
4.3 The Value Propositions

the greatest value for their clients and customers. Where we provide dry cleaning,
laundromat self-service and drying services. Not only that, folding and ironing
services are also provided for all the clothes. The theme of Bubble Fresh Laundry is
casual and friendly. We want customers who come there to feel relaxed and enjoy doing

on demand and convenient laundry service. Bubble Fresh Laundry also offers reliable
laundry services at incredibly competitive prices. Everyone will be able to use the

4.4 Demonstrable Customer Demand


Our customers are mostly students from Universiti Teknologi Mara, Puncak Alam
and also the residents that live near to our laundry. Our Bubble Fresh laundry is located
in Saujana Utama, the students and residents can use the services that we provide at the
laundry. The main reason we opened the laundry in this area, because of the students
and the residential area. We provide this service to everyone. In college, most of the
time the dryer and washing machine are occupied due to so many students using it. For
the residents, the majority of these individuals work and have little free time for household
duties. We provide these facilities to make it easier for the customers.

4.5 Competitors
Bubble Fresh Laundry does not represent the only company in the industry in the
market. Laundrybar, Mr. Clean, and AquaNano are currently the company's main
competitors. Because the Bubble Fresh Laundry will not falter in the service industry,
having these well-known companies as competitors is critical. The more competitors there
are in a sector offering similar products and services, the more options prospective
customers have. Bubble Fresh Laundry is a new entrant in the market, we can learn more
about our competitors and make better decisions to improve our products and services.
Market competition forces businesses to improve their offerings, which are then passed
on to customers in the form of more specific, efficient, and high-quality options. Lower
prices and increased purchasing power are the most obvious advantages for customers.

15
4.6 Timelines
Several milestones will be established for BUBBLE FRESH LAUNDRY in order to
track the organization's progress toward achieving realistic, lofty goals with the goal of
turning this business model into a part-time, profitable source of revenue. Below details
the specific milestones and provides a completion timeline.

As for the short run for our business is on how we promote or marketing our
services to our existing customers or new customers. Business needs a loyal customer
base to thrive. Satisfied customers give the business the revenue that the business needs
to develop and grow the business. In order for our business to gain recognition, we
promote our services through flyers and brochures that we can attract their attention.
Other than that, we also focus on participating in social media. It's easy to grow an
audience and alert customers to upcoming deals and events on Facebook, Twitter, and
Instagram. Aside from that nowadays, we have influencers that we can pay to promote
our services to their followers. This can expand our services to more new future
customers.

Meanwhile, in the long run, we will focus entirely on expanding our business by
launching our own product. For example, we are developing our own skin-friendly
softener and detergent. Having our own product allows us to expand our business
throughout Malaysia and gain the trust of our customers because they are familiar with
our product. We will also open new branches in other possible locations. Furthermore,
we want to ensure that our products are selling quickly and that they are known not only
by the residents near our location, but also by local customers. People will be more drawn
to our product as a result of the aggressive marketing and new products on the market. In
the long run, our sales will gradually rise as more customers purchase our skin-friendly
products. We all have different types of skin conditions, and some of them have sensitive
skin which is eczema. So, by having gentle products that are suitable for various skin
types, our products will become more popular because all of our customers will be able to
use them without any problems.

5.0 MARKETING ANALYSIS AND COMPETITION

5.1 Target Market

A target market is a particular group of people with similar traits to whom a


company offers its goods or service. Target markets are used by businesses to create
marketing strategies that assist us to achieve our business and marketing goals by
completely understanding our potential customers. The goal of selecting a target market
is to focus marketing efforts by having a clear concept of the potential buyers of a goods
or services. The target market can be identified in a variety of methods, such as through
demographic, psychographics, and geographic.

5.1.1 Geographic Segmentation

Geographic segmentation is the process of classifying or grouping the customers


according to where they are located. In addition to physical geography, this kind of market
segmentation also divides consumers into groups based on geographical factors including
climate, population, eating preferences, and apparel. Customer tastes and behavior are
frequently influenced by geographical circumstances. It will provide more value to the
target market and enhance customer experience by developing customized experiences
for various geographic segments. Our laundry is located at Saujana Utama, Sungai Buloh
Selangor. Our location is near to Universiti Teknologi Mara Puncak Alam (UITM). Other
than that, it is also near the residential area. Furthermore, this location is also near three
more towns. It can be beneficial to the laundry because it can cater to the people that live
near to Saujana Utama. Nowadays, the environment and weather can be harsh and
erratic, due to that it makes more people come and use the services that we provide at
our laundry.

5.1.2 Demographic Segmentation

Bubble Fresh Laundry’s target demographic mostly are from UITM’s students, and
from residential areas. The customers are from the age range 18- to 30-year-old, gen Z
and millennials who are either students or working. The busy parents also will use the
facilities that our laundry provided, due to their busy schedule such as their household
responsibilities. Other than that, men will often use the laundry services more than

17
women. This is because men frequently need to utilize a laundry since they lack the space
to store a washing machine. They might also be prepared to spend a little bit extra for
convenience and they will choose the easiest way and convenient for them.

5.1.3 Psychographic Segmentation

Demographic segmentation uses a certain trait such as gender, age, wealth and
many more to classify potential audiences, whereas psychographic segmentation places
more focus on traits like personality and values. Psychographic traits are used by the
person that has to do marketing messages for various target markets. The customers'
personalities that direct brand positioning, product development and marketing messaging
now have additional detail. Our main targets are the middle class such as the students
from UITM. Students are among the busiest people due to the amounts of homework,
tests and extra activities from their faculty that they have to do. It’s difficult to believe that
they are also expected to build and keep social lives with everything else going on in their
lives. To please the students in the area, we decided to open a laundry service in an area
close to them. It will be easier for them to wash their clothes even if they are busy with
extra classes and assignments.

5.3 Barriers to Entry: Protect Bubble Fresh Laundry Competitors

A term used in economics and business to describe variables that can deter or
make it difficult for newcomers to enter a market or industry sector and so limit competition
is "barriers to entry." These might include prohibitive startup fees, bureaucratic roadblocks,
or other barriers that make it difficult for new rivals to enter a market. Existing businesses
win from entrance barriers because they preserve their market share and capacity to make
money. Therefore, helpful barriers to entry that may protect Bubble Fresh Laundry from
competitors are:

1) Access to distribution channels. There are instances where one or a small number
of companies dominate every route of distribution. This creates a barrier to entry for other
firms because no company would permit its rival to outperform it. For instance, Bubble
Fresh Laundry determines the right selling price. All prices, if possible, have already
calculated the amount of profit after subtracting the cost price. In addition, our laundry
shop need to work hard to promote this new business and provide the best service to
customers.

2) Product differentiation. The product's brand strength because of successfully


conveying its advantages to the target market. Usually, many laundries only take supplies
of detergent and softeners from wholesalers but for Bubble Fresh Laundry, we try to
highlight our own products which are homemade detergent and softeners. For new

21
entrants in their market, it can be challenging to "break through the noise”. But it does not
matter, we believe that we are able to market our latest product successfully.

3) Heavy advertising. Bubble Fresh Laundry is a business that has just entered the
competitive market, so it needs more effort to promote and market this new business to
everyone. These include uniqueness or complexity, standing in the marketplace, and
seasonality. Bubble Fresh Laundry might use certain scheduling strategies to increase
effectiveness when doing intensive advertising.

4) Location. Location chosen by Bubble Fresh Laundry is strategic because it places with
high visibility in a range of contexts, including urban and suburban areas. Plus, Bubble
Fresh Laundry is close to the UiTM Puncak Alam and residential area and makes it a focal
location for our laundry business to grow and become more prominent.

5.5 Marketing Strategy

A company’s overall plan for reaching out to potential customers and converting
them into buyers of their goods or services is referred to as a marketing strategy. The
value proposition of the business, critical brand messages, information on target customer
demographics, and other important components are all included in the marketing plan. By
understanding the requirements and desires of its customers, a company can ultimately
achieve and communicate a durable competitive edge over comparisons. Product,
pricing, promotion and place make up the four Ps. These are the main elements that
go into marketing a product or service. When developing a new company’s idea,
assessing an existing offer, or attempting to maximize sales with a target market, the four
Ps can be applied. It can also be used to test an existing marketing plan with a new target
market.

24
Product:
Our major is offering a variety of laundry services, such as washing and drying the
clothes. We also provide service for folding the clothes after they are cleaned. The
customers can just pick up their laundry, whenever they are ready. The client is not
required to rearrange their busy schedule to accommodate the service. Instead, we work
with them to fit our timetable. We make things easier for them and accommodate their
convenience.

Brand:
A brand is anything that identifies and sets one product apart from another,
including names, terms, signs, symbols and designs. The purpose of a brand strategy is
to stand out from the competition in the eyes of the consumer so that they choose to
support the firm. Based on our brand name “Bubble Fresh Laundry” it is easily recognized
and the customers know that we are providing a service that cleans the clothes. Our brand
name we chose the word related to cleaning services.

Quality:
In an effort to draw customers to use our laundry services, quality is essential. So,
as to provide the greatest service for the customers, we have decided to provide the
service that will satisfy our current and potential customer’s needs. We will take note of
our customer’s recommendations and past experiences.

Packaging:
The customer's clothing is prepared to be packaged for the pick up once it has
been washed, dried and folded. We take great care in our packaging, and we pack
everything firmly to ensure that the clothes get you perfectly folded. We use bags with
that the bottom is suitable to stack clothes two or three high without them slipping over.
The goods would lean against one another in a typical type bag, which would not make a
decent base for stacking, so we begin by stacking the larger items, such as bath towels
or slacks first.

25
Labeling:

For the labeling, before the customer picks up their fresh laundry, we will pack and
tie the laundry in the bag to prevent it from messing it up. After that, we are going to put
our sticker logo on top of the packaging. Other than that, we will put a tag about the
customer’s details.

5.6 Pricing Strategy

The most crucial factor in running a business is pricing. The success or failure of
the firm can be determined by its pricing strategy. A corporation must consider a variety
of elements, such as the cost of sourcing materials, production expenses, competition,
and service quality, to establish price. Pricing is the most crucial aspect to take into
account when establishing a pricing for our Bubble Fresh Laundry. Our business sets its
pricing goals depending on these competition. A method for determining a service’s price
by contrasting it with that of competitors is competitor based pricing. The reason we chose
this method is because there are a lot of competitors in the industry. Offering the price
that consumers are familiar with will help us attract our target audience. Pricing
determined by competition may also aid in preventing clients from turning to rival
businesses in quest of less expensive goods or services.

5.7 Advertising and Promotion

Promotion is a range of communication initiatives to reach as many people as


possible with information or to raise awareness of a brand, product, or service. These
actions have a few goals, including promoting brand loyalty, generating demand,
differentiating items from competitors, and encouraging people to purchase a specific
product.

28
Advertising is a form of promotional activity called advertising aimed to sell a good
or service to a specific audience. Advertising is among the earliest forms of marketing or
promotion that aims to persuade the target audience to make a purchase or take a certain
action.

Social Media:

Social media is the main platform for Bubble Fresh Laundry to promote and spread
our services and mission. The social media platforms used are Facebook pages,
Instagram, and WhatsApp to communicate and attract audiences about our business.
Social media is the most effective to promote because it enables fast customer connection
and input.

Flyers and brochures:

Bubble Fresh Laundry also provides flyers and brochures as an effort to introduce
our laundry services to everyone. In the flyers and brochures, we will include all
information related to our laundry shop including price, location, and benefits of using our
laundry service. This is because, we think that when a piece of promotional material is in
their hands, people are more likely to remember a business. The budget used to spend
for the flyers and brochures is RM 400.

Banners:
Banner is also one of Bubble Fresh Laundry’s efforts to grab the customer’s
attention and prompts them to want to know more about what is being advertised.
Because of that we can grow our shop presence by using banner advertising, helping
people be able to easily recognize our products and services. For banners, the budget we
used to spend is RM 300.

Business Card:

Bubble Fresh Laundry uses the cards to drive the attention of potential customers.
We are using the cards to advertise our essential services. Each of our managers have
their own business card so that it is easy for customers to reach our services.

29
Word-of-Mouth:

Besides that, the easiest thing is to communicate verbally directly with customers
so that it is clearer what to convey about our laundry business. Indirectly, we can attract
customers to try the laundry service provided by our store. Word-of-mouth advertising
usually results in a series of additional interactions after the initial one.

Place:

For a variety of reasons, including pricing, facilities, transportation, and


environmental concerns, we chose Bandar Puncak Alam in Selangor as our business
location. Furthermore, the location of the premise is ideal because it is in a large city with
a high population, which will affect demand for our services. Furthermore, Bandar Puncak
Alam is the trendiest and most appealing location in ever-bustling Selangor, providing us
with numerous benefits and attracting more customers to try our unique service.

Distribution Channel:

A distribution channel is a chain or series of intermediaries that goods and services


pass through before reaching the customers of their final users. Laundry focuses on direct
distribution.

1. Direct Marketing Channel (Channel 1)

The direct channel does not use any intermediaries. The seller will sell it directly
to customers. For example, BUBBLE FRESH LAUNDRY sells services that cannot be
stored for an extended period of time. It is perishable because the quality of the service
deteriorates over time due to environmental factors. As a result, it is best to purchase the
service at the specified time and location so that the consumer can do their laundry with
the comfortness. The staff at BUBBLE FRESH LAUNDRY would prepare the service
based on the clients' needs and desires. As a result, the service will be freshly prepared
for the customers, saving their time.

6.2 Production

Production control is the activity of monitoring and controlling any particular


production or operation. Production control is often run from a specific control room or
operations room. Our laundry shop is a double storey shop where it has two levels. Firstly,
at the first level there will be a room for the business to run where we will produce a coffee
room, reading room, washing machine there. So, at this level, the customer will enter and
wash their clothes by themselves. They will also go to have a cup of coffee or read some
books if they want to.

Next, for the second level, there will be a room where the production activity will
happen. There will also be workers that will control the production and operation for the
business. For example, there are staff who will handle the materials with the supplier such
as for the washing machine, soap and softener. Lastly, there will also be staff who will be
responsible for maintaining the equipment that the business provides.

6.3 Facilities

Bubble Fresh Laundry is located at No. 33, Jalan Bidara 10, Saujana Utama 3,
47000, Sungai Buloh, Selangor near UiTM Puncak Alam. We believe that our laundry
shop is a strategic place as Puncak Alam is an increasingly developing area that has many
shop lots nearby. As mentioned earlier, our laundry is located near UiTM Puncak Alam,
and it is easy to find our laundry since that is our landmark used whenever the customers
want to come to the laundry shop. Next, by having a shop lot that has 1,869 sq ft with two
rooms that operate for production and office, we can run the business every day.

In addition, the facilities that we provide for our customers are the coffee area,
reading room, water dispenser, and free detergent and softener. This is because we want
to attract our customers to come to our laundry shop by offering the best facilities that we
can have. The budget used to spend for the coffee machine is RM1,800. By doing so, the
customers will come again to our laundry to wash their clothes and become our regular
customers. Therefore, we believe that having good facilities will make the customers
comfortable and happy with our laundry services.

6.4 Staffing

Operational employees mean employees whose normal responsibilities include


plant operations or functions. However, Bubble Fresh Laundry has decided to hire two
staff responsible to work in the production process area. This verdict has been made by
the owner after considering the number of the production and the salary for every month
that needs to be paid to the staff. Because of this, having these two workers will make
sure to operate the business in the operational area in a good way and solve the problem
if it occurs.

The duties for the staff members are to ensure the process of the production should
function perfectly and smoothly. The workers must conduct a weekly check of the
machinery and examine the quality of the raw materials when they are received from the
suppliers. Other than that, the maintenance process of the equipment will also be done by
them, which is the washing machines as we are in the services industry to maintain its
function well.

6.5 List of Equipments

replacement parts, directly and exclusively used in the generation, transmission, or

To operate the Bubble Fresh Laundry, we have used the raw material by detergent,
softener to wash the clothes and we provide good quality of product that does not leave a
stain on our customers clothes. We also use a good scent for our softener that contains
three scents which are Lemon, Lavender, and Rosemary.

In addition, we have used the hanger and plastic cloth cover to protect our
customer's clothes from dirt and they will be more organized when we hang them. By
doing so, our customers will be satisfied with our services since we prioritize user’s
comfort.

10.0 CONCLUSION

Based on the research and discussion above, it is possible to conclude that Bubble Fresh
Laundry is facing a number of challenges as they expand their business and new to the market.
To meet the needs of our customers, we must make them feel comfortable and encourage them
to return for more services. Our company must identify problems and weaknesses in order to
create a better strategy for removing barriers between the company and our customers. We must
offer reasonable prices and high-quality services to retain existing customers and attract new
ones. This concept will guarantee that their company or business outperforms its competitors.
Aside from that, this company must ensure that its operations run smoothly by employing
sufficient staff or manpower, which will increase the company's profit.

Nevertheless, Bubble Fresh Laundry can also hire more part-time or full-time employees
to assist with the operation of our business. This is one way they can save time and contribute to
the smooth operation of the business. As we know, our location is nearing UiTM Puncak Alam,
where there are a lot of students needing our laundry to help them manage their time. Aside from
that, promotion is the most important issue that must be addressed because it is the most
important factor in the success of a business. Because promotion appears to be the one that
connects products to customers, promotions must be well-executed to pique customers' interest
in our products and services. For example, Bubble Fresh Laundry can do a promotion or sales on
our softener and detergent so that it will build customer’s trust and brand awareness. Finally,
hiring an influencer or ambassador can help them sell more softener and detergent because they
can interact with their followers and persuade them to believe in their brand. With influencers or
ambassadors, our product will have brand awareness towards the customers.

Finally, it is crystal clear that this group report of business plan expands our knowledge of
business, particularly sole proprietorships. Aside from that, we have all enjoyed having a good
working experience together on this group report. While working on this task, we learned how to
communicate and tolerate one another. As a result, we hope that in the future, we will be able to
use all of the information gained from this case study while working on the organization.
