📊Business Analysis

🎯Target Audience

Our target audience includes culturally curious individuals, educators, and international organizations interested in cultural products and experiences from around the globe. They value authenticity, unique cultural insights, and convenient access to international marketplaces.

⚠️Problem Statement

There is a growing demand for authentic cultural products that help bridge cultural gaps and enhance understanding between nations. However, existing platforms lack personalization and social features that can significantly enhance user engagement and satisfaction.

💰Payment Readiness

With the rise of globalization and interest in diverse cultures, consumers are willing to pay for products that offer cultural insight and authenticity. Additionally, organizations face regulatory pressures to promote cultural understanding, making them ready to invest in platforms that facilitate this.

🚨Consequences

Failing to launch this platform would result in a missed opportunity to capture a niche but growing market of culturally inclined consumers, potentially leading to lost revenue and a competitive disadvantage against global marketplaces.

🔍Market Alternatives

Current alternatives include generic global e-commerce platforms that do not focus on cultural specificity or offer personalized experiences. Our platform is unique because it combines headless commerce with cultural curation and personalization.

Unique Selling Proposition

Our unique selling proposition is the combination of a headless commerce architecture for optimal user experience and a curated selection of authentic cultural products and experiences, enhanced by personalized recommendations and social commerce features.

📈Customer Acquisition Strategy

Our go-to-market strategy includes digital marketing campaigns targeting cultural enthusiasts, collaborations with cultural institutions, and leveraging influencer partnerships. We will focus on social media engagement and personalized email marketing to attract and retain customers.
