📊Business Analysis

🎯Target Audience

Urban planners, architects, sustainable developers, and construction companies looking for eco-friendly building solutions.

⚠️Problem Statement

There is a growing demand for sustainable materials and services in urban planning, but existing platforms do not cater specifically to this niche market, resulting in a gap between supply and demand for eco-conscious urban development projects.

💰Payment Readiness

The target audience is driven by regulatory pressures for sustainable practices, a competitive advantage in eco-friendly construction, and potential cost savings, making them ready to invest in specialized platforms that streamline access to these resources.

🚨Consequences

Failing to address this market need will result in lost opportunities for revenue, a competitive disadvantage in sustainable urban development, and potential non-compliance with emerging environmental regulations.

🔍Market Alternatives

Currently, urban planners and developers rely on a mix of traditional suppliers and generic online marketplaces, which lack specialized, eco-friendly product offerings and tailored services.

Unique Selling Proposition

Our platform's unique selling proposition lies in its exclusive focus on sustainable urban planning materials and services, along with advanced features like AR visualization and subscription models, distinguishing it from broader e-commerce solutions.

📈Customer Acquisition Strategy

Our go-to-market strategy includes targeted digital marketing campaigns, partnerships with sustainable certification bodies, and leveraging social media influencers in the urban planning sector to drive awareness and adoption of the platform.
