Opportunities • Facebook • Twitter • Expansion (Asia, South America?) • Campaigns • Opening of a store • Expansion to other customer base (retired, older)
Threats • Online security- risk of fraud is higher than shopping in a store. • Competitors- capability to stand out from the rest. • Downturn of the economy
Markets • Young women/men (Students) • High and low income • 18-30 (18-22 biggest group) • 500,000 emails sent out to women twice/week, 100,000 emails sent to men once/week. • 80% are women • Internet savvy • Mothers • International • Varied price range • “From highstreet to high end”
Competitors • Lipsy.co.uk • Boohoo.com • HM.co.uk • Very.co.uk • Topshop • Zara • Yoox.co.uk
