RMIT Classification: Trusted
Wellbeing Mastery
What We Do
• Primarily focused on improving the wellbeing and happiness of individuals – ‘Our core mission.’
• We provide online advice in the form of blogs, videos and phone calls to give you tips and tricks on
improving your self-esteem and confidence. This allows for flexibility in the sense that we can work in any
location without the hustle and fuss of moving around every single time.
• Due to the exponential rise of E-commerce and other online services, the landscape for businesses are
changing. Most businesses now offer services that could reach its clients or customers from all around the
world and it’s only wise for us do the same thing. Providing an online global service also allows us to reach
a greater number of clients from all around the world.
• Some of these blogs, tutorials and videos will touch on specific mental illnesses that many young adults
face (ie. The different forms of anxiety, depression and other mental disorders and its impacts on the
individual). We will then delve deep into the methods that the individuals could implement to help deal with
and perhaps overcome these disorders.
• Other blogs/videos will focus on the self-development of individuals and the steps that they could
implement every day to make them develop greater confidence and self-acceptance.
• Some individuals may need specific advice that are catered to their needs and hence, they could set up an
hour phone call with my partner so he/she can determine what issues the individual is facing and provide
them with hands on advice on how to address and overcome those issues.
Our Clients
• We target young adults in the 16-24 age group as many of them have trouble finding their place in the
world and suffer from mental illness. The Health Department consensus states that more than one in four
who suffer from mental illness are in this age bracket.
• Furthermore, most of them do not have adequate experience with handling these issues so appropriate
help for them is necessary.
Our Organization Structure
• The business will start off as a partnership of five and we will all be in charge of the business and its
activities.
• Small to large business structures require much time, effort but most importantly money and it’s going to
be very risky if we start investing a lot of money into our business early on without a reputation or a large
client base. However, if our business flourishes (we get more and more clients from all around the world)
and we develop a good reputation, then perhaps we may decide on expanding it to a small business.
• Similarly, starting a business all by myself (being a sole trader) will take a tremendous amount of time and
effort as I’ll have to be in charge of every aspect of it. Getting the business off the ground and running will
not be feasible especially during the initial stages of starting the business.
• Since this business entails many forms of online advice, it is even more essential to get a variety of
partners with different skill sets to deliver the form of advice that is best suited to their skills and interest. In
this case,
- Someone will be in charge of managing the business accounts and cash flows.
- Someone will be in charge of marketing my business (ie creating company advertisements, creating and
updating the company’s website and advertising the company through all forms of social media).
- Someone will be in charge of making all of our video content. This would include Youtube videos and
advice videos on our website etc.
- Someone will be in charge of setting up the one on one consultation with our clients.
- I’ll be in charge of making all of the blogs and tutorials for my clients as that’s what I feel I’m the most
comfortable at doing.
• At last, having partners may provide our business with a wide array of fresh new ideas and decisions
moving forward.

BUSINESS PLAN – Phoebe Phillips s3723334
SOLETRADER
Owning my own business is something I strive for.
I am ambitious and have high expectations for
myself which means I would be willing to do the
hard yards and the nitty gritty work that goes into
making your business a success. You get to
individually see the benefits of how hard you
work, and you know everything you do is trying to
better your own brand. The flexibility it provides
would be great for work/life balance. Further
down the track when I want to start a family this
style of business can make for child friendly hours.
I like the opportunities for growth and change
within a sole trader if the business was flourishing,
I would think about branching out to a partnership
with someone who specializes more in the
creation and coding of actual web pages.
All profits and losses are
yours in this style business. If
I decide to hire other people
or outsource it means I will
be the last to be paid and
you sacrifice an hourly rate
to try better your business.
It is your choice to employ other people or what tasks
you outsource. Personally, I would outsource tasks that
aren’t my strengths for example the actual coding of a
website I may use a third-party site but content creation
for the website I would do myself.
Taxed as
individuals and
pay income tax at
personal rates.
Operating as a sole
trader makes you
a consultant or
freelancer.
There is no hierarchy in
this style, yet an
autocratic style of decision
making is preferable.
SERVICES
I wanted my business name to be unique, yet no so far-
fetched that it didn’t have a personal meaning. With
agricultural advertising I think the basis is the story the
people in these industries have to tell about their
products and brands. ‘Beyond the Gate’ is all about these
stories, it invites the public into see what goes on with
paddock to pantry to plate storyline. It also reflects
individuals in the agricultural industry have a lot more to
their narrative than just the product that consumers end
up with. I wanted the logo to be clean with simple lines so
it is easily recognisable to a range of people. Bringing it
back to the simplicity of the agricultural industry and the
homegrown roots of it. The little fence icon I chose
matches the name and gives a visual link of the farm gate
that will let the rest of the world into their practises. The
colour scheme of green has connotations of growth along
with relating back to clean green agriculture that Australia
is world renowned for. Overall, I wanted to try create a
wholesome yet unique business logo.
• Create YOUR brand
There are so many competitors in the market so
need to identify what your strengths are and
point of difference. Giving your brand a name,
logo and guidance to work out key messages.
• Social Media
Work out what channels of social media
you want to pursue and what’s most
effective to stay in communication with
your target audience, using online
advertising and product placement.
• Website
Create a website that is reflective of
the values of the brands and gives a
point of reference for consumers to
come to and understand what it is
you represent and sell. Assist in
content creation that will get traffic
going through the website.
• Events
Launching or rebranding products can
require events that will establish them within
the market and give them a chance to thrive.
For example, at Henty field day giving out
samples of new chemical product combatting
weeds, resulting in consumers buying the
product post successful use.
• Brand Strategy
Establish your marketing campaign,
knowing what your end goals and
putting this into a timeline. Using
innovative ways to engage your
audience and overall increase sales and
awareness. Ensure you and the client
are on the same page
I initially researched agricultural agencies I could only find
one in Queensland, highlighting there is a need within the
market. This industry is so complex that I think it requires an
understanding of the practises and what a lot of the
individuals go through.
ABARES is forecasting a four-year low in agriculture
production, predicting he smallest winter crops in a decade
this year. In 2020 with the current drought ravaged
conditions and no irrigation water access for farmers it
makes it even more essential that Australians realise how
lucky we are to have the homegrown quality production we
do. Even more so as we face CO-VID-19 and have limited
import opportunities the reliance on Australian farmers is
greater than ever.
The hard work and tireless hours people in the agricultural
industry put in needs a platform so everyday Australians
have an appreciation for it.
I am very passionate about this industry which I think is
essential if you are going to work in, I have empathy and
understanding to businesses situations yet want to bring my
positive and vibrant attitude to publicising it.

Drone Photography
J.A
Business Name:
‘JA Drone Photography’
'JA’ representing my initials that stamp my position as a sole
trader. Gives business grounding and personal connection to
clientele, and provides confidence they are going to get a
custom, tailored service, which is important in a
personalised service such a photography.
In a survey conducted in my statistics based class, I found in
the demographic I am targeting, people were much more
likely to instantly recognise what the service was offering
when labelled 'drone photography', compared to my
previous title of 'aerial imaging’. This makes my brand more
accessible and easier to find in a typical google
search for this service amongst my clientele. Also implies a
specialisation in the particular field of drones.
Logo for Business:
Greyscale colour palette & modern
minimalist look implies
sophistication, coming into line with
my desired brand identity and
association, whilst keeping it easy to
read and not too heavy on the eyes.
Edgy, angular lines parallel with
cutting-edge technology offered by
this service. Arrow up and drone
graphic suggests the business is
forward thinking or a cut above this
rest.
Compact, traditional landscape
format for easy branding transfer
onto cars, stickers etc.
Proposed Organizational Type, Features and
Rationale:
This will be a for-profit organization operating as a
freelance Sole Trader. The key features of this type
are:
- Business ran as an individual
- Business can contain my name
- All profits and losses are mine
- Tax paid at personal tax rates
- Option to employ additional staff
In line with my career anchor, I am someone who
thrives on independence and having flexibility of
work hours, which is a key advantage of sole trading
as a family orientated person.
As someone who already has stable full time work
elsewhere,
this also allows me to integrate my business in the
early stages of growth alongside my current work
hours for additional income whilst I'm finding my
feet.
The personal tax rate is beneficial whilst working two
jobs, as business income will likely fall below the
threshold where its more financially beneficial to be
a small company (due to registration fees).
Services Proposed to be Offered:
Specializing in commercial drone photography,
offering a broad spectrum of services including
inspections, showcases, time-lapse, 3D mapping,
video & photo editing.
5 years personal experience operating
professional drones, and 7 years expertise in
photography, complimented with the latest
professional grade equipment for shoots.
Fully Accredited Civil Aviation Safety Authority
(CASA) certified pilots license (RePL) for remote
operations and proof of competence and over 40
hours of flight experience
Sectors to be Targeted, and Rationale:
Agile fleet of drones on hand versatile in their
application across real estate and industrial
sectors. Capable of industrial inspections and
land mapping, considering most of my
experience is in the industrial sector and a
network is therefore being developed.
Marketing as an Australia wide business which
allow for opportunities in the government sector.
Real estate and branding sectors, being Geelong
based, most opportunities will be local and it is
therefore sensible to target the blooming local
property market (post coronavirus recovery).
Specifically, targeting the value such a service can
add to the clients business or property.
Social media will be my main stream for
communicating and finding new clients. Using
Sensis data specific to my target demographic, I
found that 53% would trust brands and services
that interact with consumers on social media.
Given I’ve started to build an Instagram portfolio
already, this would be a great place to put my
work on display and potentially grow the
business.

Paradiso! Public Relations is an modern PR agency, to be
located in Melbourne, that specialises in creative and
strategic communications for fresh fashion, beauty and
lifestyle brands.
Through building strong industry relationships with influential
names and businesses, and connecting clients with key media and
digital platforms the agency will strive to achieve maximum brand
awareness.
Paradiso! Public Relations will be:
• A boutique agency of under 50 employees
• working along side its directors as a small for- profit
business
• A client driven business that places meeting clients needs as
its number one priority
I decided to work as a small business as I believe that working
in a informal small group setting would allow for a range of
strengths in all areas of the business from different employees
to flourish. that would assist in achieving client and business
goals. This would also mean that I am not personally liable for
any losses of the business.
The services we will offer are:
• Media relations
• Social media management
• Strategic advice
• Events management
These are the services that I have carefully selected to offer, as
I believe that they are the most relevant and would be the most
effective services for the types of fashion and beauty
businesses that I would like to work with. As these younger,
more up and coming brands use more modern forms of media
rather than traditional to connect with their typically younger
target audience .
Target sectors:
This business is aiming to target the Fashion and beauty sector
primarily as this matches my own individual interests and
passions. This will allow me to more easily form relationships
and connections with valuable brands.

N AM E: HAN DSHAKE PUBLICITY
I wanted the name of the business to be fun and
carefree, but most of all, friendly.The word
handshake was inspired by the term ‘handshake
deal’, implying friendship. This creates the
appearance of approachability.
LOGO:
Once again, I wanted this to reflect a fun and
approachable business. Rather than opting
for a preexisting font, I wanted the logo to be
hand drawn and unique, to reflect our
personalised service.
ORGAN ISATION TYPE: SOLE TRADER
This will be a for profit organisation my main goals
are not charitable, religious, educational etc.
Some of the main characteristics of a sole trader is
that the business is run by an individual, whom all
the profits and losses belong to. Finally, tax is paid
as personal tax rates and there is the opportunity
to employ staff should the business grow.
My main career anchors are independence and
cantonal competence. Thus, I opted for sole trader
as my organisation type. This is so I could maintain
monopoly on all decision making within the
business.

PITCHIN G)
I would build boutique publicity campaigns for
artists and bands, which would include radio
servicing and DSP pitching.
Radio servicing: involves pitching to radio
stations for airplay, features and interviews.
DSP pitching: refers to pitching songs and
albums to Digital Service Providers (ie. Spotify and
iTunes) for
potential playlist additions.
I have volunteered in community radio (SYN , RRR
& PBS) for several years now. During this time I
have held various leadership positions and gained
a thorough understanding of the relationship
between radio and PR / artists and the
responsibilities required. Furthermore, I have
interned at music publication Forte and
international record label Domino, both of which
have provided me with music publicity skills. A lot
of my target clients have DIY approach and are
confident with covering publicity however radio
servicing and DSP pitching is an unknown.
Therefore, radio servicing and DSP pitching will be
my differentiation.
SECTORS: M USIC IN DUSTRY
I will be targeting the local music scene in
Melbourne. This made the most sense to me as I
have been freelancing as a music photographer
for over three years now. I already have,
connections, community and network.
The bands in my network have a DIY approach.
As they aim to do everything themselves, they may
not be inclined to hire a publicist. This is why I
have aimed to create a low-key friendly appeal,
rather than a high end agency vibe.
As mentioned, I want this business to be friendly
and approachable. My aim is to work with people
who I already know and whose work I love, rather
than blind pitching to clients. This has the
opportunity to expand, to perhaps even rep
international artists, however I will start with what I
know.

Sole Business Trader
AdverGraphics is a sole trader business, as it is run by a single person. It will be a for-
profitor gani sat ion that of fer
s
product s and ser vices i nexchange f or profi t. All fina nces
will be dealt with through the individual, handling all profit
s
as we l l as losses and the
tax paid will be at personal tax rates. In the future, the individual can opt to employ staff
members if the business continues to remain successful and develops more workload.
In this business type, there is basically no hierarchy in the system because one person
will essentially make all the decisions. In terms of budgeting, it would be unstructured
and fle
x
i bl e; adj ust ing to the needs and wa nt s of the indi vi dual . They may also have
competing freelancers in the same business who may pose a threat to AdverGraphics if
they have a more established name in the industry or have deeper connections with a
wider range of people. If the business does continue to be successful, the freelancer may
reach a ‘growth ceiling’ if they choose to not pursue a change in their business structure
(such as a partnership or small company). They may choose to remain as a sole trader
or take steps in advancing and expanding to a more structured, developed business.
AdverGraphics is a sole trader business because it will predominantly revolve around a
freelancer that can collaborate with multiple clients with varying requirements in each job.
Hence, the freelancer will have a lot more freedom in decisions such as choosing clients,
managing their own work schedule or having a personal work style. With being a sole
trader, the individual can quickly make their own decisions without having to negotiate
with a partner; but may also be disadvantaged because they are unable to get a second
perspective or advice. However, the freelancer will only be restricted by the requirements
and constraints of the client and so have more artistic freedom to pursue a style or
method preferable to them. This also allows for closer connections and interactions
between the client and designer because they will be more interested and invested. It
can also serve as a means of becoming more self-dependent and resilient because there
will be no one else to depend on throughout working.
AdverGraphics provides exciting and professional level design solutions to businesses
looking to establish their brand identity or advertise new products/services. The
freelancer has been actively involved in creating art and developing their artistic style
for many years. They have experimented and been exposed to both traditional and
digital art, using many diffe
r
ent me t hods and ma t er ial s. The individual has also had
signific
a
nt exper ience in usi ng di gi tal pr ogr ams such as Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop and
Indesign; which is vital in providing clients with professional, clean designs. Due to this,
AdverGraphics is very capable of communicating with clients, listening to their needs
and turning them into tangible goods that will be used in many contexts. The business
will mostly deal with providing branding for the clients, including outcomes such as
logos, business cards, websites, social media content, and publication layouts as well as
providing design advice throughout the process. Whether the client is seeking an update
or ‘glow up’ of pre-existing designs or a completely new and fresh design for a start-up
company, AdverGraphics will endeavour to meet those needs.
The most prominent sectors the business is targeted towards are restaurants and cafes
based in the Melbourne CBD. Melbourne is known for having a highly diverse and
vibrant food community that is constantly changing and shifting, with new stores being
opened everywhere. Whether it be a highly established and well known restaurant, or
a more exclusive and hidden bar tucked away in an overlooked laneway; it’s no doubt
that people are spoilt for choice when it comes to fin
d
i ng the per fect pl ace to di ne. To
set themselves apart and distinguish from other competition, cafes and restaurants will
want to develop their brand identity with the goal of being memorable and unique to
customers. Furthermore, social media is becoming increasingly prominent in everyday
lives, making it a valuable method of advertising and connecting to potential audience
members. AdverGraphics can help curate and produce content that will remain
contemporary and exciting.

MISSION
A focus on integrating alternative health and
wellbeing products and services to the general
public, as I aim to improve public health in a
positive and holistic way. Communication focus
on creating balance within an individual, as
well as creating harmony in their relationship
with others and the environment they live.
NAME
g.room has a subtle reference to me personally as my
name begins with G. However, it’s also professional in its
simplicity and ambiguity of meaning. There is room to add
meaning as the business progresses. The use of ‘room’
suggests to a common and inclusive space in which we
will work collectively with clients to produce a desired
outcome.
LOGO
As it’s fundamentally a communications business, I decided to have typography as the main
element of the logo. The use of an extravagant font allows the ‘g’ to become a symbol for the
organisation if and when a small/simplified logo is needed. I didn’t choose to include a symbol
to represent the company, as this can become restrictive to brand perception.
CAREER ANCHOR
- Entrepreneurial creativity… I aspire to
create an enterprise of my own, built on my
willingness to overcome obstacles, such as
current societal opinions, and take risks. I
wish for this enterprise to be financially suc -
cessful, and I seek opportunities in which I
can be creative and channel my passion in
health and wellbeing, to build a strong busi-
ness and have a broader impact. I wish for
this organisation to be a representation of me
and my passions as well as work ethic.
- General managerial competence … despite
wanting to create an enterprise of my own, I
work best on an integrated range of different
areas, having accountability for the over all
results of the business.
Therefor, I hope to work cooperatively with
others who specialise in communication
techniques, such as content creation and
journalism, to name a few, and who can
support me and work with me to develop
strategies to have the greatest effect for
clients.
- Dedication to a cause … I am passionate
about working towards achieving something
of value. For em this is inspiring a healthy and
happy society, promoting all manner of ways
in which to achieve this, incorporating both
western and alternative techniques.
PARTNERSHIP MODEL
Initially the organisational type will be a
Partnership model.
I have chosen this model as it requires a
more structured budgeting format than Sole
Trader organisations, however I can still
have large influence over the finances,
which I believe will be best for me.
I wish to work along side and carry out
business with others who have similar
interests and aspirations, as this is inspiring
and motivating for me. From my perspec -
tive, a partnership model also makes deci -
sion-making processes easier, as I find
value in consulting with others.
From a managerial point of view, I like the
idea of having a small team of peers to lead
to their greatest potential as individuals and
a group.
In terms of hierarchy I will aim to be equal
with my partner, however this will only be
maintainable if we have a different skill set.
In terms of career advancement, a partner -
ship model is best, as it allows for increased
equity over time. This is of importance to
me as I value the financial success of the
business.
PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
- creating owned content
- promotional activities
- event management
- influencer relations (I have a general under -
standing of the influencers who will have a
positive effect within the health and wellbeing
sector)
- strategic broadcasting to brake down any
stigma and inspire behavior change

Georgie Manifold s3781770
TARGET SECTORS
This business will offer public relations strategy
for brands or research groups wishing to
promote a product, service, or information
within the health space.
- Clients will be local and international organi -
sations.
- focus on alternative health and wellbeing
products and services
- integrate western methodologies to advertise
a balanced and holistic opinion
USP
a focus on integrating alternative health and
wellbeing products and services to the gen -

Corporate Government
A crisis can occur for any business in any
sector. Businesses most likely to require
assistance during a crisis would be in the
corporate and government sectors. These
are the sectors that are most at stake at
reputational damage during a crisis, both
sectors have large stakeholders who must be
communicated with appropriately in times of
crisis to reassure the stakeholder that the
business/ government is strong. To ensure
ongoing business, it would be essential and
idea to have a client fromeither the
corporate or government sectors.
My communications business will have a major focus on Crisis Communications
and the importance of getting businesses ready for crisis situations.
Crisis communications is a part of public relations that primarily focuses on
protecting and defending an individual or organisation when its reputation is
challenged.
PERSONALSWOTANALYSIS
Strengths
• Public Relations knowledge
• Writing strength – strategy etc.
• Creating and producing content
• Passionate and motivated to learn
more
• Social Media and Content Creation
Opportunities
• Complete internship at a crisis comms
company to gain some experience.
• Expand network to those working in
the crisis communications
• Read case studies to expand
knowledge of communication practices
Threats
• Others with more knowledge
• Other start ups
• Small network could be disadvantage
Weaknesses
• Lack experience in Crisis Comms, have
completed a course at RMIThowever.
• Can be indecisive.
MARKETCONTEXT
Having researched crisis communication businesses in Melbourne, it is
apparent that there are not that many public relations agencies focusing
purely on crisis communication. While there is still a few agencies operating
in Melbourne that focus purely on crisis communications, such as Crisis Shield,
the opportunity still exists to enter this market. The proposed business can be
differentiated fromcurrent businesses due to its niche to assist organisations
in their crisis preparedness through media/ roll play training etc.

Directive99
Melbourne, Aus. S3717170
Georgia Payne
Proposed organisational type -
A Sole Proprietorship that offers communications strategies for established event Promotion and
Management Services in Australia. This is a business that is owned and operated by an individual
also known as a Sole Trader. Legally speaking, a Sole Proprietorship has no seperate existence
from the owner. The owner is therefore entitled to the total profits, as well as responsible for all
losses. Directive 99 seeks to have a small team of strategists working alongside the owner, for
large, established events businesses. The decision to operate as a Sole Trader is due to the
simplicity of the organisation type. With a small start up cost, limited legalities, and quick setup.
Beyond that, being the owner of the business, means freedom to grow, expand or adapt alongside
the ever evolving market, without having to adhere to share-holders or cooperatives as in some
other structures. Working with the likes of Hardware presents, Novel Presents, Untitled Group,
Secret Sounds and emerging festival groups such as Capture. These are Australian based companies, predominately within Melbourne, therefore our
business will be based in Melbourne. Melbourne's large scale live music scene is a great place to penetrate the market, and gain traction within the
Events scene.
Services proposed to be offered-
Strategy involves integrating consumer research into the advertising development process. (Jon Steel, warc.com) Directive 99’s detailed strategic
plans will help to engage stakeholders, ensure people have a clear path, change or adhere to brand perceptions, and most importantly help us to
meet the events objectives, Our strategists work closely with the client at each step of the way to ensure a cohesive strategy that adheres to brand
image, and the clients values. Henri Minzberg, SWOCC Brand Management Models, 2006 (warc.com) boils down the 5 ‘definitions’ of strategy:
“Plan, Ploy, Pattern, Position, Perspective.” He also goes on to explain: “While plans and positions can be adapted, perspectives are immutable: once
they are established they become difficult to change.” This is a model which our business always revisits when fleshing out our ideas in the initial
stages, and continuously revisits throughout the strategic process.
Beginning with the client brief, we ask that our clients give us a clear brief, outlining the event, target audience, and everything in between. This is our
guide. The brief is constantly referred to at each step of the way, to ensure the clients receive a direct and relevant strategy. This will also later be
used to measure the success of our strategy, with clear communication objectives laid out by the client.
The foundation of a successful strategy lies within research, our small team uses numerous online platforms alongside qualitative research to find the
key insights to drive the overall strategy. Brand and consumer insights provoke creative thinking. A good strategy to us is one that is adaptable, free
flowing, yet targeted and concise. Finding this balance between the facts and the ever changing industry makes us agile.
Our strategies, which are predominately digital, will involve integrated marketing communications. The strategy will outline the key communications to
be targeted, from Public Relations to Media plans. This will give each client a clear outline of how, where and when to release content, to reach their
target market. The strategy will also involve creative ideas that are unique to each event, outlining what the target audience will engage with and what
wont work. For example, we may suggest that Social Media be the main driver for a client.
Once the campaign has run, and the event has been completed, we then evaluate the success of our strategy, by comparing the communication
objectives, to the analytics and data available to us. For example, an Instagram ad aimed to reach 10,000 people prior to the release of the lineup,
however, 23,400 people engaged with the ad, making it a successful
strategy.
Sectors to be targeted-
We will look at targeting the Events Management and promotion
services Industry. This sector makes up 56.3% of the Event Promotion
and Management Services in Australia. This sector generated $4.95
billion within the $8.8 billion of revenues in 2020 (IbisWorld) see left
Upon researching the events industry, I have found that there is not a lot
of information regarding the festival sector that Directive 99 wants to
target. These events have been grouped into a broader sector.
According to IBIS World, there are no major players in Australia, and
their list of smaller players does not include businesses that operate and
promote festivals specifically. According to Ibis World, market share
concentration in the Event Promotion and Management Services
industry is low. The top four industry players roughly accounted for less than 10% of industry revenue in 2019-20. The low market share concentration
reflects the variety of specialised industry segments (such as festivals) and the many small firms in the industry.
I have compiled a list, based on my own research, that includes large scale festival promoters.
1. Secret Sounds - affiliated with Triple J
2. Untitled Group
3. Mushroom Group
4. Novel Presents These
four make up a huge portion of the Australian festival scene, each running multiple events year round. Directive is looking at targeting these
groups, as the larger the scale, brings in more publicity and higher reach. Beyond this, larger groups require more assistance in promoting their
events as they have multiple. Ibis World also states that low barriers to entry for event promotion and management services have resulted in
many owner-operators participating in the industry. This means that Directive will be able to target a wide variety of smaller businesses that align
with our brand, in the initial stages, to form a portfolio of work and to pitch to larger clients in the future.
The events management Industry shows a steady growth as
seen on IBIS World: (right) This is therefore a viable sector to
target, with projected growth at 2.8% in the next 5 years.
The industry however does involve some weaknesses, and threats,
which we are looking to capitalise on. The high level of competition
in the industry means that failing, or new festivals and events may
struggle to get a foothold in this fast moving sector. By targeting
events that may have previously flopped, or seen limited growth,
Directive aims to reinvigorate and promote them in a new light. This
will aim to increase awareness and revenue of events, as well as
Directive itself. The low long-term growth of this industry is a threat
to events management businesses. Directive will therefore have to
be agile in future, adapting to the emerging needs of new and old
clients. Whether that be remodelling the business to suit a dying
industry, or finding new ways to reinvigorate them.

BUSINESS MODEL
This business will be set up as a partnership. That being a legal form of business operating
between two people - myself and one other. This organisational time will allow make myself to
partner up with another individual who offers different skills to myself and therefore allows the
business to be as multifaceted as possible. The business responsibilities will be shared
between the two of us. This is a positive as the start-up costs are reasonably low and more
capital is available for the business.
Cons of a partnership
Both equally liable
Being a new business that is relatively small there may not be much public confidence and
therefore we would have to focus on our personal publicity and build a brand which people feel
confident with and can trust.
PARTNER STRENGTHS
When looking for someone to partner up with they will need to have a good understanding of
the way a business is run (preferably have a background in business as well as event
management.)
- The partner I choose will need to be a great communicator and speak up when something
goes wrong or they disagree with, this will limit conflict in the long run.
HoneyWire is a for profit business with
the intention of providing exceptional
event packages and experiences.
HoneyWire will aim to bring creativity,
imagination and technically complex
designs, to bring together people,
businesses and brands in the most
engaging and exciting way possible.

As‘an oversupply of photographers’ (Reeves2019, para.

into the photography industry, it’s imperative to target
lucrative sectors. Wood’s Event Photography will target
the 'live entertainment’ sector. This sector is typically
def ned as‘any activity that [is] provided for the enjoy-
ment and recreation of people who [are] physically pres-
ent’ (PwCn.d., para. 1). This encompases events such as
festivals, live music performances and other cultural
experiences. The industry has experienced a growth in
revenue and attendance from 2017 to 2018 (see f gure
2), with music and festivalshaving the top 3 attendance
rates(see f gure3).
Additionally, targeting
recurring events will allow
for the building of connec-
tionsto secure future work
and grow networks.There’s
also room to grow, starting
with smaller jobs, such as
emerging artistsand clubs,
leading to bigger live
events and festivals with
moreemployees.

When starting any business, communication is vital, since it is the only way of creating awareness to the public.
In this case, the primary channels for communication will be through the website and social media. The firm’s
name will be ECHO, and the organisational type is a sole trader. It will be an advertising company.
There are several features associated with a sole trader business structure. One point is that it is easy to form
since it is managed by one individual who is also the source of capital. Another aspect is that the owner is
accountable for making all the decisions. Most important is that there are less legal documents which are required. The business can easily be
dissolved since there are no legal documentation that is necessary. One of the reasons why this type of organisation was selected is because the
owners keep all the profits as there are no other parties involved. The second reason is that the business is easy to set up since the firm is registered
as self-employment without many requirements.
There are different services to be offered by this advertising company. One of the
accommodations will be mobile advertising where ads will be served on mobile phones. The
second service will be social media advertising through Facebook, Instagram and WeChat. The
reason why I want to include WeChat is because my international student background dose give me the benefit to reach out the large audience of
Chinese diaspora. IT will be the best accommodation bearing in mind that most individuals depend on social media for information. There are two
primary sectors that will be targeted: the industrial and financial because they are very competitive especially under the COVID-19 situation; hence,
they will rely on the advertising company like ECHO to have a competitive advantage in the market.

  • 11. RMIT Classification: Trusted Wellbeing Mastery What We Do • Primarily focused on improving the wellbeing and happiness of individuals – ‘Our core mission.’ • We provide online advice in the form of blogs, videos and phone calls to give you tips and tricks on improving your self-esteem and confidence. This allows for flexibility in the sense that we can work in any location without the hustle and fuss of moving around every single time. • Due to the exponential rise of E-commerce and other online services, the landscape for businesses are changing. Most businesses now offer services that could reach its clients or customers from all around the world and it’s only wise for us do the same thing. Providing an online global service also allows us to reach a greater number of clients from all around the world. • Some of these blogs, tutorials and videos will touch on specific mental illnesses that many young adults face (ie. The different forms of anxiety, depression and other mental disorders and its impacts on the individual). We will then delve deep into the methods that the individuals could implement to help deal with and perhaps overcome these disorders. • Other blogs/videos will focus on the self-development of individuals and the steps that they could implement every day to make them develop greater confidence and self-acceptance. • Some individuals may need specific advice that are catered to their needs and hence, they could set up an hour phone call with my partner so he/she can determine what issues the individual is facing and provide them with hands on advice on how to address and overcome those issues. Our Clients • We target young adults in the 16-24 age group as many of them have trouble finding their place in the world and suffer from mental illness. The Health Department consensus states that more than one in four who suffer from mental illness are in this age bracket. • Furthermore, most of them do not have adequate experience with handling these issues so appropriate help for them is necessary. Our Organization Structure • The business will start off as a partnership of five and we will all be in charge of the business and its activities. • Small to large business structures require much time, effort but most importantly money and it’s going to be very risky if we start investing a lot of money into our business early on without a reputation or a large client base. However, if our business flourishes (we get more and more clients from all around the world) and we develop a good reputation, then perhaps we may decide on expanding it to a small business. • Similarly, starting a business all by myself (being a sole trader) will take a tremendous amount of time and effort as I’ll have to be in charge of every aspect of it. Getting the business off the ground and running will not be feasible especially during the initial stages of starting the business. • Since this business entails many forms of online advice, it is even more essential to get a variety of partners with different skill sets to deliver the form of advice that is best suited to their skills and interest. In this case, - Someone will be in charge of managing the business accounts and cash flows. - Someone will be in charge of marketing my business (ie creating company advertisements, creating and updating the company’s website and advertising the company through all forms of social media). - Someone will be in charge of making all of our video content. This would include Youtube videos and advice videos on our website etc. - Someone will be in charge of setting up the one on one consultation with our clients. - I’ll be in charge of making all of the blogs and tutorials for my clients as that’s what I feel I’m the most comfortable at doing. • At last, having partners may provide our business with a wide array of fresh new ideas and decisions moving forward.
  • 12. RMIT Classification: Trusted BUSINESS PLAN – Phoebe Phillips s3723334 SOLETRADER Owning my own business is something I strive for. I am ambitious and have high expectations for myself which means I would be willing to do the hard yards and the nitty gritty work that goes into making your business a success. You get to individually see the benefits of how hard you work, and you know everything you do is trying to better your own brand. The flexibility it provides would be great for work/life balance. Further down the track when I want to start a family this style of business can make for child friendly hours. I like the opportunities for growth and change within a sole trader if the business was flourishing, I would think about branching out to a partnership with someone who specializes more in the creation and coding of actual web pages. All profits and losses are yours in this style business. If I decide to hire other people or outsource it means I will be the last to be paid and you sacrifice an hourly rate to try better your business. It is your choice to employ other people or what tasks you outsource. Personally, I would outsource tasks that aren’t my strengths for example the actual coding of a website I may use a third-party site but content creation for the website I would do myself. Taxed as individuals and pay income tax at personal rates. Operating as a sole trader makes you a consultant or freelancer. There is no hierarchy in this style, yet an autocratic style of decision making is preferable. SERVICES I wanted my business name to be unique, yet no so far- fetched that it didn’t have a personal meaning. With agricultural advertising I think the basis is the story the people in these industries have to tell about their products and brands. ‘Beyond the Gate’ is all about these stories, it invites the public into see what goes on with paddock to pantry to plate storyline. It also reflects individuals in the agricultural industry have a lot more to their narrative than just the product that consumers end up with. I wanted the logo to be clean with simple lines so it is easily recognisable to a range of people. Bringing it back to the simplicity of the agricultural industry and the homegrown roots of it. The little fence icon I chose matches the name and gives a visual link of the farm gate that will let the rest of the world into their practises. The colour scheme of green has connotations of growth along with relating back to clean green agriculture that Australia is world renowned for. Overall, I wanted to try create a wholesome yet unique business logo. • Create YOUR brand There are so many competitors in the market so need to identify what your strengths are and point of difference. Giving your brand a name, logo and guidance to work out key messages. • Social Media Work out what channels of social media you want to pursue and what’s most effective to stay in communication with your target audience, using online advertising and product placement. • Website Create a website that is reflective of the values of the brands and gives a point of reference for consumers to come to and understand what it is you represent and sell. Assist in content creation that will get traffic going through the website. • Events Launching or rebranding products can require events that will establish them within the market and give them a chance to thrive. For example, at Henty field day giving out samples of new chemical product combatting weeds, resulting in consumers buying the product post successful use. • Brand Strategy Establish your marketing campaign, knowing what your end goals and putting this into a timeline. Using innovative ways to engage your audience and overall increase sales and awareness. Ensure you and the client are on the same page I initially researched agricultural agencies I could only find one in Queensland, highlighting there is a need within the market. This industry is so complex that I think it requires an understanding of the practises and what a lot of the individuals go through. ABARES is forecasting a four-year low in agriculture production, predicting he smallest winter crops in a decade this year. In 2020 with the current drought ravaged conditions and no irrigation water access for farmers it makes it even more essential that Australians realise how lucky we are to have the homegrown quality production we do. Even more so as we face CO-VID-19 and have limited import opportunities the reliance on Australian farmers is greater than ever. The hard work and tireless hours people in the agricultural industry put in needs a platform so everyday Australians have an appreciation for it. I am very passionate about this industry which I think is essential if you are going to work in, I have empathy and understanding to businesses situations yet want to bring my positive and vibrant attitude to publicising it.

  • 15. RMIT Classification: Trusted Drone Photography J.A Business Name: ‘JA Drone Photography’ 'JA’ representing my initials that stamp my position as a sole trader. Gives business grounding and personal connection to clientele, and provides confidence they are going to get a custom, tailored service, which is important in a personalised service such a photography. In a survey conducted in my statistics based class, I found in the demographic I am targeting, people were much more likely to instantly recognise what the service was offering when labelled 'drone photography', compared to my previous title of 'aerial imaging’. This makes my brand more accessible and easier to find in a typical google search for this service amongst my clientele. Also implies a specialisation in the particular field of drones. Logo for Business: Greyscale colour palette & modern minimalist look implies sophistication, coming into line with my desired brand identity and association, whilst keeping it easy to read and not too heavy on the eyes. Edgy, angular lines parallel with cutting-edge technology offered by this service. Arrow up and drone graphic suggests the business is forward thinking or a cut above this rest. Compact, traditional landscape format for easy branding transfer onto cars, stickers etc. Proposed Organizational Type, Features and Rationale: This will be a for-profit organization operating as a freelance Sole Trader. The key features of this type are: - Business ran as an individual - Business can contain my name - All profits and losses are mine - Tax paid at personal tax rates - Option to employ additional staff In line with my career anchor, I am someone who thrives on independence and having flexibility of work hours, which is a key advantage of sole trading as a family orientated person. As someone who already has stable full time work elsewhere, this also allows me to integrate my business in the early stages of growth alongside my current work hours for additional income whilst I'm finding my feet. The personal tax rate is beneficial whilst working two jobs, as business income will likely fall below the threshold where its more financially beneficial to be a small company (due to registration fees). Services Proposed to be Offered: Specializing in commercial drone photography, offering a broad spectrum of services including inspections, showcases, time-lapse, 3D mapping, video & photo editing. 5 years personal experience operating professional drones, and 7 years expertise in photography, complimented with the latest professional grade equipment for shoots. Fully Accredited Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) certified pilots license (RePL) for remote operations and proof of competence and over 40 hours of flight experience Sectors to be Targeted, and Rationale: Agile fleet of drones on hand versatile in their application across real estate and industrial sectors. Capable of industrial inspections and land mapping, considering most of my experience is in the industrial sector and a network is therefore being developed. Marketing as an Australia wide business which allow for opportunities in the government sector. Real estate and branding sectors, being Geelong based, most opportunities will be local and it is therefore sensible to target the blooming local property market (post coronavirus recovery). Specifically, targeting the value such a service can add to the clients business or property. Social media will be my main stream for communicating and finding new clients. Using Sensis data specific to my target demographic, I found that 53% would trust brands and services that interact with consumers on social media. Given I’ve started to build an Instagram portfolio already, this would be a great place to put my work on display and potentially grow the business.

  • 37. RMIT Classification: Trusted Resonance Media is a small, specialist agency based in Melbourne that provides professional photographic, film, media and PR services for emerging musicians and venues. The aim is to create strong and authentic content for the purposes of generating, maintaining and enhancing both audience engagement and strength of artist identity and venue patronage. Services The services offered include professional-standard media content and branding assets for local Melbourne artists that want to help grow their artistic identity and move beyond amateur status in their art and in their reception. Organisational Type As a small agency, Resonance Media is a general partnership of 3 individuals that specialise in film, photography and public relations respectively, and operate in mutual trust, confidence and agreement with each other in shared control and management of the business. Rationale: • The establishment cost is low • There is greater capital available to the growing business • There is room for flexibility of legal structure if the business grows • There is limited external regulation, so the agency can operate as creatively and authentically as possible Services wit hin my capabilities: • Studio and performance photography • Film, music video and short preview content • Social media assets, platform presence development and scheduled post planning • PRand brand counselling Targeted Sectors Resonance Media targets both emerging musical acts and the venues that facilitate their performances for the opportunities the collaborations presents: To secure the PR contracts of new talent, to gain access to the performances that venue’s host, and to establish a well-known and authentic reputation in the music entertainment industry.

  • 46. RMIT Classification: Trusted N AM E: HAN DSHAKE PUBLICITY I wanted the name of the business to be fun and carefree, but most of all, friendly.The word handshake was inspired by the term ‘handshake deal’, implying friendship. This creates the appearance of approachability. LOGO: Once again, I wanted this to reflect a fun and approachable business. Rather than opting for a preexisting font, I wanted the logo to be hand drawn and unique, to reflect our personalised service. ORGAN ISATION TYPE: SOLE TRADER This will be a for profit organisation my main goals are not charitable, religious, educational etc. Some of the main characteristics of a sole trader is that the business is run by an individual, whom all the profits and losses belong to. Finally, tax is paid as personal tax rates and there is the opportunity to employ staff should the business grow. My main career anchors are independence and cantonal competence. Thus, I opted for sole trader as my organisation type. This is so I could maintain monopoly on all decision making within the business. SERVICES: M USIC PUBLICITY (IN C. RADIO SERVICIN G AN D DSP PITCHIN G) I would build boutique publicity campaigns for artists and bands, which would include radio servicing and DSP pitching. Radio servicing: involves pitching to radio stations for airplay, features and interviews. DSP pitching: refers to pitching songs and albums to Digital Service Providers (ie. Spotify and iTunes) for potential playlist additions. I have volunteered in community radio (SYN , RRR & PBS) for several years now. During this time I have held various leadership positions and gained a thorough understanding of the relationship between radio and PR / artists and the responsibilities required. Furthermore, I have interned at music publication Forte and international record label Domino, both of which have provided me with music publicity skills. A lot of my target clients have DIY approach and are confident with covering publicity however radio servicing and DSP pitching is an unknown. Therefore, radio servicing and DSP pitching will be my differentiation. SECTORS: M USIC IN DUSTRY I will be targeting the local music scene in Melbourne. This made the most sense to me as I have been freelancing as a music photographer for over three years now. I already have, connections, community and network. The bands in my network have a DIY approach. As they aim to do everything themselves, they may not be inclined to hire a publicist. This is why I have aimed to create a low-key friendly appeal, rather than a high end agency vibe. As mentioned, I want this business to be friendly and approachable. My aim is to work with people who I already know and whose work I love, rather than blind pitching to clients. This has the opportunity to expand, to perhaps even rep international artists, however I will start with what I know. Name: Chelsea King Student ID: 3769529 Tutorial: Thursday 9:30am

RMIT Classification: Trusted adver GRAPHICS PROPOSEDORGANISATIONALTYPE IDENTIFICATIONOFKEYFEATURES RATIONALEFORORGANISATIONAL TYPE SERVICESTO BEOFFERED SECTORSTO BETARGETED RATIONALE Sole Business Trader AdverGraphics is a sole trader business, as it is run by a single person. It will be a for- profitor gani sat ion that of fer s product s and ser vices i nexchange f or profi t. All fina nces will be dealt with through the individual, handling all profit s as we l l as losses and the tax paid will be at personal tax rates. In the future, the individual can opt to employ staff members if the business continues to remain successful and develops more workload. In this business type, there is basically no hierarchy in the system because one person will essentially make all the decisions. In terms of budgeting, it would be unstructured and fle x i bl e; adj ust ing to the needs and wa nt s of the indi vi dual . They may also have competing freelancers in the same business who may pose a threat to AdverGraphics if they have a more established name in the industry or have deeper connections with a wider range of people. If the business does continue to be successful, the freelancer may reach a ‘growth ceiling’ if they choose to not pursue a change in their business structure (such as a partnership or small company). They may choose to remain as a sole trader or take steps in advancing and expanding to a more structured, developed business. AdverGraphics is a sole trader business because it will predominantly revolve around a freelancer that can collaborate with multiple clients with varying requirements in each job. Hence, the freelancer will have a lot more freedom in decisions such as choosing clients, managing their own work schedule or having a personal work style. With being a sole trader, the individual can quickly make their own decisions without having to negotiate with a partner; but may also be disadvantaged because they are unable to get a second perspective or advice. However, the freelancer will only be restricted by the requirements and constraints of the client and so have more artistic freedom to pursue a style or method preferable to them. This also allows for closer connections and interactions between the client and designer because they will be more interested and invested. It can also serve as a means of becoming more self-dependent and resilient because there will be no one else to depend on throughout working. AdverGraphics provides exciting and professional level design solutions to businesses looking to establish their brand identity or advertise new products/services. The freelancer has been actively involved in creating art and developing their artistic style for many years. They have experimented and been exposed to both traditional and digital art, using many diffe r ent me t hods and ma t er ial s. The individual has also had signific a nt exper ience in usi ng di gi tal pr ogr ams such as Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop and Indesign; which is vital in providing clients with professional, clean designs. Due to this, AdverGraphics is very capable of communicating with clients, listening to their needs and turning them into tangible goods that will be used in many contexts. The business will mostly deal with providing branding for the clients, including outcomes such as logos, business cards, websites, social media content, and publication layouts as well as providing design advice throughout the process. Whether the client is seeking an update or ‘glow up’ of pre-existing designs or a completely new and fresh design for a start-up company, AdverGraphics will endeavour to meet those needs. The most prominent sectors the business is targeted towards are restaurants and cafes based in the Melbourne CBD. Melbourne is known for having a highly diverse and vibrant food community that is constantly changing and shifting, with new stores being opened everywhere. Whether it be a highly established and well known restaurant, or a more exclusive and hidden bar tucked away in an overlooked laneway; it’s no doubt that people are spoilt for choice when it comes to fin d i ng the per fect pl ace to di ne. To set themselves apart and distinguish from other competition, cafes and restaurants will want to develop their brand identity with the goal of being memorable and unique to customers. Furthermore, social media is becoming increasingly prominent in everyday lives, making it a valuable method of advertising and connecting to potential audience members. AdverGraphics can help curate and produce content that will remain contemporary and exciting.

  • 58. RMIT Classification: Trusted MISSION A focus on integrating alternative health and wellbeing products and services to the general public, as I aim to improve public health in a positive and holistic way. Communication focus on creating balance within an individual, as well as creating harmony in their relationship with others and the environment they live. NAME g.room has a subtle reference to me personally as my name begins with G. However, it’s also professional in its simplicity and ambiguity of meaning. There is room to add meaning as the business progresses. The use of ‘room’ suggests to a common and inclusive space in which we will work collectively with clients to produce a desired outcome. LOGO As it’s fundamentally a communications business, I decided to have typography as the main element of the logo. The use of an extravagant font allows the ‘g’ to become a symbol for the organisation if and when a small/simplified logo is needed. I didn’t choose to include a symbol to represent the company, as this can become restrictive to brand perception. CAREER ANCHOR - Entrepreneurial creativity… I aspire to create an enterprise of my own, built on my willingness to overcome obstacles, such as current societal opinions, and take risks. I wish for this enterprise to be financially suc - cessful, and I seek opportunities in which I can be creative and channel my passion in health and wellbeing, to build a strong busi- ness and have a broader impact. I wish for this organisation to be a representation of me and my passions as well as work ethic. - General managerial competence … despite wanting to create an enterprise of my own, I work best on an integrated range of different areas, having accountability for the over all results of the business. Therefor, I hope to work cooperatively with others who specialise in communication techniques, such as content creation and journalism, to name a few, and who can support me and work with me to develop strategies to have the greatest effect for clients. - Dedication to a cause … I am passionate about working towards achieving something of value. For em this is inspiring a healthy and happy society, promoting all manner of ways in which to achieve this, incorporating both western and alternative techniques. PARTNERSHIP MODEL Initially the organisational type will be a Partnership model. I have chosen this model as it requires a more structured budgeting format than Sole Trader organisations, however I can still have large influence over the finances, which I believe will be best for me. I wish to work along side and carry out business with others who have similar interests and aspirations, as this is inspiring and motivating for me. From my perspec - tive, a partnership model also makes deci - sion-making processes easier, as I find value in consulting with others. From a managerial point of view, I like the idea of having a small team of peers to lead to their greatest potential as individuals and a group. In terms of hierarchy I will aim to be equal with my partner, however this will only be maintainable if we have a different skill set. In terms of career advancement, a partner - ship model is best, as it allows for increased equity over time. This is of importance to me as I value the financial success of the business. PRODUCTS AND SERVICES - creating owned content - promotional activities - event management - influencer relations (I have a general under - standing of the influencers who will have a positive effect within the health and wellbeing sector) - strategic broadcasting to brake down any stigma and inspire behavior change - writing to communicate scientific research to consumers Georgie Manifold s3781770 TARGET SECTORS This business will offer public relations strategy for brands or research groups wishing to promote a product, service, or information within the health space. - Clients will be local and international organi - sations. - focus on alternative health and wellbeing products and services - integrate western methodologies to advertise a balanced and holistic opinion USP a focus on integrating alternative health and wellbeing products and services to the gen - eral public.

Businesses most likely to require assistance during a crisis would be in the corporate and government sectors. These are the sectors that are most at stake at reputational damage during a crisis, both sectors have large stakeholders who must be communicated with appropriately in times of crisis to reassure the stakeholder that the business/ government is strong. To ensure ongoing business, it would be essential and idea to have a client fromeither the corporate or government sectors. My communications business will have a major focus on Crisis Communications and the importance of getting businesses ready for crisis situations. Crisis communications is a part of public relations that primarily focuses on protecting and defending an individual or organisation when its reputation is challenged. PERSONALSWOTANALYSIS Strengths • Public Relations knowledge • Writing strength – strategy etc. • Creating and producing content • Passionate and motivated to learn more • Social Media and Content Creation Opportunities • Complete internship at a crisis comms company to gain some experience. • Expand network to those working in the crisis communications • Read case studies to expand knowledge of communication practices Threats • Others with more knowledge • Other start ups • Small network could be disadvantage Weaknesses • Lack experience in Crisis Comms, have completed a course at RMIThowever. • Can be indecisive. MARKETCONTEXT Having researched crisis communication businesses in Melbourne, it is apparent that there are not that many public relations agencies focusing purely on crisis communication. While there is still a few agencies operating in Melbourne that focus purely on crisis communications, such as Crisis Shield, the opportunity still exists to enter this market. The proposed business can be differentiated fromcurrent businesses due to its niche to assist organisations in their crisis preparedness through media/ roll play training etc. Sam McCormick S3659666 COMM2337 9:30 Thursday Tutorial The above SWOTanalysis highlights some of my personal strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats that are related to communication and my proposed communication business. It is evident that I lack some hands on knowledge of crisis communications, however I plan to expand my knowledge in this area through an internship and research to enable me to full provide professional services to clients.

  • 69. RMIT Classification: Trusted Directive99 Melbourne, Aus. S3717170 Georgia Payne Proposed organisational type - A Sole Proprietorship that offers communications strategies for established event Promotion and Management Services in Australia. This is a business that is owned and operated by an individual also known as a Sole Trader. Legally speaking, a Sole Proprietorship has no seperate existence from the owner. The owner is therefore entitled to the total profits, as well as responsible for all losses. Directive 99 seeks to have a small team of strategists working alongside the owner, for large, established events businesses. The decision to operate as a Sole Trader is due to the simplicity of the organisation type. With a small start up cost, limited legalities, and quick setup. Beyond that, being the owner of the business, means freedom to grow, expand or adapt alongside the ever evolving market, without having to adhere to share-holders or cooperatives as in some other structures. Working with the likes of Hardware presents, Novel Presents, Untitled Group, Secret Sounds and emerging festival groups such as Capture. These are Australian based companies, predominately within Melbourne, therefore our business will be based in Melbourne. Melbourne's large scale live music scene is a great place to penetrate the market, and gain traction within the Events scene. Services proposed to be offered- Strategy involves integrating consumer research into the advertising development process. (Jon Steel, warc.com) Directive 99’s detailed strategic plans will help to engage stakeholders, ensure people have a clear path, change or adhere to brand perceptions, and most importantly help us to meet the events objectives, Our strategists work closely with the client at each step of the way to ensure a cohesive strategy that adheres to brand image, and the clients values. Henri Minzberg, SWOCC Brand Management Models, 2006 (warc.com) boils down the 5 ‘definitions’ of strategy: “Plan, Ploy, Pattern, Position, Perspective.” He also goes on to explain: “While plans and positions can be adapted, perspectives are immutable: once they are established they become difficult to change.” This is a model which our business always revisits when fleshing out our ideas in the initial stages, and continuously revisits throughout the strategic process. Beginning with the client brief, we ask that our clients give us a clear brief, outlining the event, target audience, and everything in between. This is our guide. The brief is constantly referred to at each step of the way, to ensure the clients receive a direct and relevant strategy. This will also later be used to measure the success of our strategy, with clear communication objectives laid out by the client. The foundation of a successful strategy lies within research, our small team uses numerous online platforms alongside qualitative research to find the key insights to drive the overall strategy. Brand and consumer insights provoke creative thinking. A good strategy to us is one that is adaptable, free flowing, yet targeted and concise. Finding this balance between the facts and the ever changing industry makes us agile. Our strategies, which are predominately digital, will involve integrated marketing communications. The strategy will outline the key communications to be targeted, from Public Relations to Media plans. This will give each client a clear outline of how, where and when to release content, to reach their target market. The strategy will also involve creative ideas that are unique to each event, outlining what the target audience will engage with and what wont work. For example, we may suggest that Social Media be the main driver for a client. Once the campaign has run, and the event has been completed, we then evaluate the success of our strategy, by comparing the communication objectives, to the analytics and data available to us. For example, an Instagram ad aimed to reach 10,000 people prior to the release of the lineup, however, 23,400 people engaged with the ad, making it a successful strategy. Sectors to be targeted- We will look at targeting the Events Management and promotion services Industry. This sector makes up 56.3% of the Event Promotion and Management Services in Australia. This sector generated $4.95 billion within the $8.8 billion of revenues in 2020 (IbisWorld) see left Upon researching the events industry, I have found that there is not a lot of information regarding the festival sector that Directive 99 wants to target. These events have been grouped into a broader sector. According to IBIS World, there are no major players in Australia, and their list of smaller players does not include businesses that operate and promote festivals specifically. According to Ibis World, market share concentration in the Event Promotion and Management Services industry is low. The top four industry players roughly accounted for less than 10% of industry revenue in 2019-20. The low market share concentration reflects the variety of specialised industry segments (such as festivals) and the many small firms in the industry. I have compiled a list, based on my own research, that includes large scale festival promoters. 1. Secret Sounds - affiliated with Triple J 2. Untitled Group 3. Mushroom Group 4. Novel Presents These four make up a huge portion of the Australian festival scene, each running multiple events year round. Directive is looking at targeting these groups, as the larger the scale, brings in more publicity and higher reach. Beyond this, larger groups require more assistance in promoting their events as they have multiple. Ibis World also states that low barriers to entry for event promotion and management services have resulted in many owner-operators participating in the industry. This means that Directive will be able to target a wide variety of smaller businesses that align with our brand, in the initial stages, to form a portfolio of work and to pitch to larger clients in the future. The events management Industry shows a steady growth as seen on IBIS World: (right) This is therefore a viable sector to target, with projected growth at 2.8% in the next 5 years. The industry however does involve some weaknesses, and threats, which we are looking to capitalise on. The high level of competition in the industry means that failing, or new festivals and events may struggle to get a foothold in this fast moving sector. By targeting events that may have previously flopped, or seen limited growth, Directive aims to reinvigorate and promote them in a new light. This will aim to increase awareness and revenue of events, as well as Directive itself. The low long-term growth of this industry is a threat to events management businesses. Directive will therefore have to be agile in future, adapting to the emerging needs of new and old clients. Whether that be remodelling the business to suit a dying industry, or finding new ways to reinvigorate them.

This organisational time will allow make myself to partner up with another individual who offers different skills to myself and therefore allows the business to be as multifaceted as possible. The business responsibilities will be shared between the two of us. This is a positive as the start-up costs are reasonably low and more capital is available for the business. Cons of a partnership Both equally liable Being a new business that is relatively small there may not be much public confidence and therefore we would have to focus on our personal publicity and build a brand which people feel confident with and can trust.

It’s also benef cial in creating more personal connections between the brand and clients, propelling word-of-mouth reccomendations. There are risks associated with this model, such asstruggling to gain clients‘who will not engage with sole traders’, and claiming full ‘responsibility and risk from a project’ (Aldred 2015, para. 9). However, as expenses won’t be monumentousand employeeswould behired on a casual/contractual basis, the risk isa logi- cal oneto take.

Wood’s Event Photography will target the 'live entertainment’ sector. This sector is typically def ned as‘any activity that [is] provided for the enjoy- ment and recreation of people who [are] physically pres- ent’ (PwCn.d., para. 1). This encompases events such as festivals, live music performances and other cultural experiences. The industry has experienced a growth in revenue and attendance from 2017 to 2018 (see f gure 2), with music and festivalshaving the top 3 attendance rates(see f gure3). Additionally, targeting recurring events will allow for the building of connec- tionsto secure future work and grow networks.There’s also room to grow, starting with smaller jobs, such as emerging artistsand clubs, leading to bigger live events and festivals with moreemployees.

  • 94. RMIT Classification: TrustedRMIT Classification: Trusted Xena Dong #3775072 When starting any business, communication is vital, since it is the only way of creating awareness to the public. In this case, the primary channels for communication will be through the website and social media. The firm’s name will be ECHO, and the organisational type is a sole trader. It will be an advertising company. There are several features associated with a sole trader business structure. One point is that it is easy to form since it is managed by one individual who is also the source of capital. Another aspect is that the owner is accountable for making all the decisions. Most important is that there are less legal documents which are required. The business can easily be dissolved since there are no legal documentation that is necessary. One of the reasons why this type of organisation was selected is because the owners keep all the profits as there are no other parties involved. The second reason is that the business is easy to set up since the firm is registered as self-employment without many requirements. There are different services to be offered by this advertising company. One of the accommodations will be mobile advertising where ads will be served on mobile phones. The second service will be social media advertising through Facebook, Instagram and WeChat. The reason why I want to include WeChat is because my international student background dose give me the benefit to reach out the large audience of Chinese diaspora. IT will be the best accommodation bearing in mind that most individuals depend on social media for information. There are two primary sectors that will be targeted: the industrial and financial because they are very competitive especially under the COVID-19 situation; hence, they will rely on the advertising company like ECHO to have a competitive advantage in the market.
