Valuable: untapped demand + social philosophy + 1st mover advantage + loyalty + Club Med persona
Rare: only so many high income individuals + little competition that delivers Club (US) value proposition
Inimitable: It would take decades + $$$ to develop clientele base
Non-Substitutable: Many vacation substitutes but few that offer the social value proposition and an all inclusive, upscale networking event specifically designed for successful peoples
