Executive Summary

Teacherafterschooljobs.com is a new job search website that is designed to provide teachers with part-time or seasonal employment, supplementing their current income. The site will be effective in matching educated, mature, responsible educators with employers in need of their part-time or summer assistance. While the revenue will come from the employer listing fees, Teacherafterschooljobs.com will have two general customers, the employers as well as the employees in search of the jobs. In addition to having a robust job board on their site, Teacherafterschooljobs.com will also offer tools for the educators, often consisting of a large list of useful hyperlinks. This feature provides additionally functionality to the site encouraging more traffic which is valuable to the employers that post jobs.

The Market
It is well known that educators are very dedicated professionals who work at below market wages. For a multitude of reasons, teachers are paid poorly in America. With this in mind, there are a high percentage of teachers that are looking for supplemental income, indicating a bountiful market. As mentioned previously, Teacherafterschooljobs.com will be receiving revenue from the employer listing fees. Four distinct market segments will be targeted. The first is retail which has an annual growth rate of 50%. Teacherafterschooljobs.com believes there to be 50 potential customers in this segment. The next group is government with also a 50% growth rate and 40 possible customers. Private daycare and camps is also a target with a 25% growth rate and 20 possible customers. The last segment targeted will be education with a 10% growth rate and 20 customers.

Competitive Edge
Teacherafterschooljobs.com has a unique pool of prospective employees, all of the employees are professional educators who have skill sets centered on education, professionalism, and the passion and dedication commonly associated with teachers. This offers a significant distinction relative to the many other online job boards such as Monster and Hotjobs since they have very disparate cross sections of job seekers. Having a strong pool of prospective employees will make it much easier to attract employers who want to post their jobs.

Management
Teacherafterschooljobs.com will be developed and run by Patrice and Rosario Cibella. Both Patrice and Rosario have been in the education industry for more than a decade. While they both were passionate teachers for many years, they recognized the huge potential of an online job board that provides part time and seasonal opportunities for educators. Patrice worked as an eleventh grade teacher for twelve years at a local district. The last four years of her tenure were as the social studies department head. As the department chairperson, Patrice strengthened her managerial and strategic focus skills as she guided the department to be recognized as one of the finest in the state. Rosario also has a background in education, however his was also mixed with administrative role as the vice principal of his school for six years. As vice principal Rosario was directly responsible for the operation of the school. This experience will be directly applied in leading Teacherafterschooljobs.com to become the premier specialized online job board.

Teacherafterschooljobs.com is poised for success by combining a solid business model with a huge market potential and a solid management team. The venture will be profitable from month one with modest gross margins for year one, increasing slightly by year three. Teacherafterschooljobs.com is forecasted to achieve a minimal gross profit by the end of year three.

Market Analysis Summary

Teacherafterschooljobs.com will focus on educational institutions to provide the pool of potential employees. Schools employing teachers, as well as educational institutions training teachers, will be prime marketing targets. Given the fact that educational institutions are faced with the challenge of maintaining a quality faculty within limited salary constraints, it is extremely advantageous for them to provide a quality opportunity for teachers to supplement their income.

Our focus group to provide the income for the company will be employers who seek part-time and seasonal employees. In our current economy, nearly all employers have the need for these positions. The costs of continually hiring these employees for each need is significant. Our company will provide a unique pool of educated, stable, and professional employees. Retail establishments, food service, summer camps, park districts, and day care centers are just a few of the employers who require employees with the professional background, demeanor and, most importantly, the work schedule of teachers. The joining of these two groups provides significant benefits and savings to both groups.

4.1 Market Segmentation

Our target market is broken down into the following categories:

  1. Schools of all levels to provide the pool of employees.
  2. College Education majors to provide additional employees with the same profile.
  3. Retail establishments such as department and grocery stores.
  4. Park districts, which provide summer programs for the same children taught by our prospective employees.
  5. Summer camps providing programs similar to the Park Districts.

Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5
Potential Customers Growth CAGR
Retail 50% 50 75 113 170 255 50.28%
Government 50% 40 60 90 135 203 50.09%
Private Camps and Day Care 25% 20 25 31 39 49 25.11%
Education 10% 20 22 24 26 29 9.73%
Total 42.50% 130 182 258 370 536 42.50%

4.2 Target Market Segment Strategy

Focusing on these groups places the two pieces of the puzzle squarely in-line with one another. There are a number of job search sites out there. Many of these are too extensive for the needs of our focus group; our specific marketing targets fit the profile and purpose ultimately sought by our company and the employees and employers themselves. Our marketing will be focused on a concise brochure, detailing the advantages and strategy of our company and will be delivered (as much as possible) by personal contact and interview. This approach will stress both the professional and personal nature of the company.

4.3 Service Business Analysis

The significant number of job search companies forces us to focus on the unique and specialized groups we are seeking to join. Fortunately, the purpose and focus of the company is exactly the service we seek to provide.

4.3.1 Competition and Buying Patterns

The most important factor for the employer will be the reduction in advertising costs by reducing the turnover, therefore increasing the reliability and professionalism of its workforce. By providing the pool of employees we intend to target, the cost of our services will be relatively inexpensive for employers.

Passing the cost to the employers allows us to provide a cost-free service to the pool of employees, thus increasing traffic on the site.

Strategy and Implementation Summary

Teacherafterschooljobs.com will initially focus on the local market. The local market includes many national retailers leading to an easy transition to a national market. Targeting school districts also begins in the local market but lends itself to quick national expansion.

5.1 Competitive Edge

Our unique pool of employees gives us a significant advantage over the larger job search firms concentrating on different careers. Our links and appeal to teachers also gives us the ability to market related links for increased traffic. Concentrating on the professionalism, education, and dedication of teachers is essential in distinguishing our pool of employees from the general population, thus increasing the hiring appeal for our employers.

5.2 Milestones

The following table lists the important milestones we have set and achieved, and the allocation of our budget for the same. Careful planning and follow-up are essential to our plan. Monthly follow-ups will be essential to the implementation and success of our business.

5.3 Sales Strategy

Our sales will depend on the repeat business derived from providing quality permanent, part-time, and seasonal employees. Our sales must be focused on annual contracts paid in advance. We will offer plans based on a monthly charge for job listings. A fee of $20/mo for up to 10 job listings, $35/mo for 11-20 listings, $50/mo for 21-50 listings, and $75/mo for unlimited listings. All of the sales should be attempted in person with the employer, and closed and paid on an annual basis. Follow-up of the success of the listings and contacts should be made quarterly.

5.3.1 Sales Forecast

The following chart and table show our forecasted sales. We would hope to obtain at least 60 employers at the $20/month level, 60 employers at the $35/month level, 36 employers at the $50/month level, and 36 employers at the $75/month level in the first year. We expect the number of employers to increase at the rate of 15-20% each year, with the growth of the higher-priced subscribers to increase by the end of year two with the national appeal of the local national employers. Costs should then be reduced by the end of year two with the purchase of our own server to allow captive hosting of our own website.

Management Summary

The initial owners will be the operators and managers. We will receive extensive technical and webmaster assistance from our son Zachary, as well as support and input from our other family members. The company hired to perform Web hosting duties will also provide technical support. As the business expands, additional sales and marketing personnel will be added.

6.1 Personnel Plan

The attached table summarizes our personnel expenditures for the first three years. Since the company is a closely-held family corporation, the compensation is closely tied to the profitability of the company.

Financial Plan

We will finance growth through the cash flow produced in the business. This strategy may force slow growth, however, establishing a stable and extensive network will take time and is the key to the success of the company.

Our sales based on a yearly contract with payment in advance would be the key to our cash flow and growth. We realize that we may have to be flexible in accepting less than one year of payment, but feel if we can get a minimum of three-month commitments from each employer, we will meet cash flow needs.

7.1 Important Assumptions

The financial plan depends on important assumptions, most of which are shown in the following table as annual assumptions. We recognize the collection of accounts receivable is critical, but one over which we have little control.

General Assumptions
Year 1 Year 2 Year 3
Plan Month 1 2 3
Current Interest Rate 10.00% 10.00% 10.00%
Long-term Interest Rate 10.00% 10.00% 10.00%
Tax Rate 25.42% 25.00% 25.42%
Other 0 0 0

7.2 Break-even Analysis

The following chart and table summarize our break-even point. Since the cost per unit is a commission being paid to the sales persons who will initially be the owners, we are operating at the minimum, with the bulk of our costs being the compensation of the owners. We are using 25% of revenue, which is high based on the above information.

Monthly Units Break-even 8
Monthly Revenue Break-even $311
Assumptions:
Average Per-Unit Revenue $40.63
Average Per-Unit Variable Cost $14.53
Estimated Monthly Fixed Cost $200

7.3 Projected Profit and Loss

Our profit and loss is shown in the following table. Our sales figures are conservative due to our start-up nature and specific target audience. We still project a small profit the first year while nearly doubling profit in each of the following years. These figures do not take into account the substantial possible profit center of Web advertising revenue from educational tool and resource suppliers, as well as linking with these same suppliers. We expect traffic to be significant enough to begin addressing this large profit center midway through year two and throughout all of three.

7.4 Projected Cash Flow

Due to our fixed Web hosting costs and the owners being the only employees, our cash flow in the following table remains positive throughout the year. The improvement in the cash flow as the subsequent years progress will allow for the continual updating and maintenance of the site to keep it fresh and viable. The low fixed cost of adding pages (flat fee of approximately $130/page) should be covered by our positive cash flow, thus allowing continuing expansion as necessary.
