Analogue Cable (new LHD) Marketing Plan
by James Jiang + Calvin Yip
Version 2.3 (2007.7.17)

Marketing StrategiesBackground
• Chinese approvals are mandatory for legitimate sale of LHD products into the PRC market. We must get approvals ASAP.
• Kidde old LHD can’t fit China new standard. We must find a solution to continue the approval.
Why Sureland
• We choose to cooperate with Sureland because they have new products can meet new standards. With their new products, it becomes fast and easy to pass the new approval test.
• Sureland has good relationship with Leader and the cooperation would be smooth.
•There are mutual benefits between Sureland and Kidde. We negotiate to Sureland to ensure Kidde is the only distributor (apart from its existing System Sensor, TianYu, & Sureland internal sales/project team)
Why Leader
• We cooperate with Leader to finish the product while we buy the key components from Sureland. Finished products by Beijing Leader are China local made and they can be forwarded to the Shenyang Test Center for local made approval.
• Another benefit to have product finished and approval via Leader is to reduce test time from 6 months to 3 months. Also this can cut the test cost down from USD 5000.00 per type to RMB 5000.00 per type.
• We can remain saying that this product is “made by Kidde” when Leader is a part of UTCFS/Kdde family.

Product
Remark: -This is the first rough sample (e.g. for testing mould)-Already plan & actions to improve the quality in terms of plastic materials, printing method, new color, box surface design, etc.)-Improved samples and some new design options can be ready next week (mid Apr)-Two model types:
-K82017F (fixed temp.)
7
New Product Design
• New design layout on the outer box• Differentiate from Sureland’s product• Upgrade the box quality, color, logo printing, etc.• Use the same color of HSSD• Change “lights” lining from horizontal to vertical• Require to modify the mould and PCB
8
New A-LHD Orientation
Approach
• We buy cable and control unit PCB from Sureland and assemble unit box in Leader. So the new LHD is a local product.
• We do new test in Shenyang, and Leader will be the manufacturer and Kidde be the “report owner” in the test report.
How the customer feel
• Kidde is an old import brand in Chinese LHD market, focused for high level customer.
• Chinese customer will know Kidde new LHD major parts are from Sureland.
Solution
• We will publicize the new LHD is a JV product, and “made by Kidde”.
• Price to contractor is a bit sensitive since Sureland has “ambition” on the market
• Kidde will maintain the target of high level market based on market demand
