Services

Tops Bit Web Solutions. is a full-service Internet solutions provider for small businesses. We focus mainly on the Web, offering the following as our key 'Bread & Butter' website services: Design and development. Marketing and analysis. Hosting and maintenance.We currently offer the following secondary services: E-commerce development. Website renovations and upgrades. Application development (i.e. chat rooms, message boards, online polling, live-feed audio/video, etc.). Website maintenance training. Internet/website education seminars. Database construction.We have plans to offer the following services within the next year: Internet access service for small businesses. Local Area Network (LAN)installation. Intranet setup and installation. Result-based website marketing.

3.1 Service Description

Website Design and Development:The service that we offer to small businesses is modeled after the service that larger Web development firms offer Fortune 1000 companies in the sense that it is completely customized and unique to each individual client.

Website Marketing and Analysis:After we build the website for our client, or a new client introduces us to their pre-existing site, we offer this service. As experts of the Web, we can analyze and test a website based on an established set of standards that account for the website's aesthetic value, scalability, functionality, ease-of-use, and main customer base. After an analysis has been made, we then explore and present to the client a detailed list of the most efficient Internet marketing tools and methods available to them within the constraints of their budget. This type of service is pertinent to our company given the fact that a very large percentage of our clients are on a tight budget and can only afford to take advantage of marketing efforts that are targeted directly at their desired demographic.

Website Hosting and Maintenance:This service is offered for two reasons. The first reason is because they are both ongoing, continual services that we can use to establish and maintain a strong residual income. The second reason for offering these services is to allow for packaging together with other services either Tops Bit Web Solutions. offers, or services an outside company can provide, hence allowing us to expand our range of small business Internet services.

3.2 Sales LiteratureTops Bit Web Solutions. currently distributes a sales folder with all the pertinent information about our company and services. This folder includes our strong points, history, portfolio examples, and pricing packages info. It also contains facts based on the growth and popularity of the Internet for small businesses.Tops Bit Web Solutions. currently operates and maintains a fully-functioning website that provides information about the company, plus a variety of helpful resources for small business owners which we will be constantly updating.In the next six months, we plan to produce and distribute bulk mail and fax flyers promoting our Web development and hosting services to small businesses .We have plans tooffer a more compact version of our main sales folder in a brochure format. This brochure will be available both as a mailer to interested parties and as a sales solicitation in area businesses.

3.3 FulfillmentFor the website design, development, marketing, analysis, and maintenance we will employ industry professionals to handle our clients' needs. Working for the company presently is Dharmendra Kumar, a professional website development engineer and strategist with two years of experience in the commercial Web development industry. To keep employee costs low, we have designed a "team" development system that will consist of one full-time sales person and two full-time Web developers. Of the Web developers, one position will be filled by a highly-qualified senior Web professional and one lesser-qualified, lower paid developers. All two will work full-time on separate projects provided to them by the sales person. However, the senior developer will have the duty of maintaining the same high quality level of work in the junior developers' projects, that our clients have learned to expect from us now.For the website hosting services we offer, Tops Bit Web Solutions. has formed several alliances with industry leaders to provide top-rate, reliable hosting solutions. Forming the alliances hasallowed us much flexibility in important hosting features, customizability, and it has drovecosts down dramatically. All these benefits are crucial to preserving the integrity of our company as being a 'fully-rounded Internet solutions provider' for small businesses.

3.4 TechnologyIt is a given that technology and keeping up with new innovations strongly influence our business. We operate a Windows basedLocal Area Network (LAN) in the office that is equipped with the most current software and hardware tools available to meet our project requirements. Within the next year, we will be investing in additional tools that will extend our capabilities in handling various types of program files. We also have plans to purchase licensing agreements with our major software vendors to allow for automatic upgrades in new software tools.

3.5 Future Services

Local Area Network Installation: These days, a quickly increasing number of small businesses are using computers as a necessary tool in the everyday operations of the company. We would like to be able to expand our current services to meet this new demand. We will handle every aspect of setting up a small business with an internal network of computers from purchasing, installing, and configuring the machines to software integration and educating the employees on proper usage and operating functions.

Intranet Setup Installation:In our plan, after developing an Internet website for outside marketing purposes, we would like to offer the service of implementing the website into the network for use in all the business day-to-day operations. This would include extensive product/service cataloging, vital employee and management information, sharing of accounting and inventory details, etc., all intended for strictly company uses.

Internet Access for Small Business:This feature would act as another residual, packageable service. We would target small businesses exclusivelyallowing us to provide more flexibility and affordability to our clients through discounted high volume rates, value added service packages, and much more aggressive technical support services.

Result-based Marketing:This is a service that no small business can turn down. We have plans to offer aggressive, intensified marketing services with the fees based solely on results. To achieve this, we are in the process of forming multiple partnerships and alliances with industry specific Internet websites and various other software and service-oriented companies that provide specific marketing services and tools based on results achieved. We feel as though offering this rare service will dramatically increase our portfolio of clients.

Market Analysis Summary

Tops Bit Web Solutions will initially focus almost exclusively on small companies looking to develop an Internet presence for the first time. We will market our services to small business owners as a "step-by-step" process, initially starting out with a small, simple website, then graduallyimproving and adding to the site and their entire online marketing efforts.Although we plan to bring on many clients who simply will need an online presence and nothing more, our most important and sought after clients will be those business owners who are ready to implement alarger percentage of their company onto the Internet. This type of client will traditionally need one of the following services: E-commerce/shopping cart. Database driven websites. Dynamic content and website features. Aggressive online website marketing.

4.1 Target Market Segment StrategyTops Bit Web Solutions. will focus the majority of sales and marketing efforts toward attracting small businesses. The reason for this decision is simply the low amount of services available for a market with such a high demand. In addition to the very promising supply and demand ratio, it is also technically easier and less expensive to market to and attract small website projects than larger projects.4.1.1 Market NeedsThe need for small business Internet services has existed for several years.Small businesses and start-up businesses alike are migrating onto the Web at an astonishing rateand making their online presence ahigher priority than in earlier years. We have noticed an enormous hole however in the small business services that are currently available.Without a doubt, there is a need for custom, high-end, dynamic services designed exclusively for small businesses. At this point, the majority of our competitors are offering services tailored around big business, to small business owners, or they are offering the exact opposite and one-dimensional.While every small business has now recognized the need for having a presence on the Internet, many do not know where to start, how much it will cost, or even how it will benefit their company.It has been our experience by talking to small business owners that the decision to take advantage of the Web is not a matter of 'if' but a matter of 'when.'4.1.2 Market TrendsAn important market trend right now is the one toward aggressive online and website marketing. Although many small businesses are still waiting to gain an Internet presence, those who already have are beginning to look for more options along the lines of improving their existing efforts. We believe that in the upcoming years, small companies especially, will start to look for more ways to increase the traffic to their websites.Another important trend is the overall merging of daily business operations with the Internet and World Wide Web. Just as the majority of large companies have already started to use the Web to handle inter office tasks, we believe that many smaller companies will begin to realize the time and money saving advantages to this strategy.

4.2 Service Business AnalysisWeb services and development companies vary greatly in the type of service they offer and the type of client they attract.Tops Bit Web Solutions. will be relatively unique in the fact that we are marketing exclusively to small businesses.This industry consists of many small Web development firms usually less than 10 years old that generally start out offering services to smaller companies but with long-term goals ofcatering to large, corporate Web accounts.

4.2.1 Main Competitors

1.ZIDDI, Vidhan Sabha Marg:Located approximately 4 Kms from our office, they offer Web development and graphic services.

Strengths:To provide good services as per international quality standards, company have employed a team of talented, qualified and experienced professionals. They are in touch with our customers through quality, performance, service and assistance.

Weaknesses: ZIDDI Graphics requires all clients who operate an e-commerce website to pay his company a commission on the revenue generated by the site, this is paid on top of the development fee that ZIDDI charges.

2. Prosolvis Technologies Pvt. Ltd., Hazaratganj:Located approximately 3 Kms from our office, they offer Web development services to small businesses in the Lucknow.

Strengths:It invite to learn more about their services Software Development, Web Development, IT Consultancy, Database Migration, Data Warehousing, Office Automation System, Hardware & Network, Full Flash Website/Flash Animation and CMS Blog Website. IT follow Industry Certified Process to deliver quality services to our offshore clients from the U.S., Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Japan and Dubai.

Weaknesses:Prosolvis Technologies Pv.Ltd. is a young company with very high overhead. Their very high pricesdo not in any way reflect the needs of small business owners. It is also our opinion, after reviewing Prosolvis Technologies' portfolio that they lack a certain level of technical and aesthetic design knowledge that so many small businesses are beginning to demand.

4.2.2 Business ParticipantsThe Web services and development industry consists mainly of three different types of firms.The first type are the very large, high revenue companies who service larger Fortune 1000 corporations and well-funded Internet based start-ups exclusively. In this category are only a few worldwide participants that dominate.The second type of firm offers pre-fabricated, all-in-one, proprietary type Web services to any size company at a very low cost or without any cost. The participants in this category consist of a few dominating companies that mainly all have additional sources of revenue and only offer Web services as a value-added service or additional attraction.The third type of firm is our classification, that is the smaller, usually very young companies that market to small- and medium-sized businesses in their local area. Currently there are a large number of participants in this category, but no dominating forces.

Strategy and Implementation Summary

Tops Bit Web Solutions will initially focus all marketing and sales efforts toward the North-East area in the country. We will market ourselves as an Internet and Web services organization devoted to offering high-end services to small businesses exclusively. Our target customer will be the owners of any small or home-based company whoare looking to implement their business into the Web.

5.1 Competitive EdgeWe have a valuable competitive edge over our local competitors based on the fact that we have streamlined all our services into the small business market. Through setting up several strategic partnerships with various Internet and Web-related companies, we are able to offer our clients an affordable and efficient proprietary Web package that will meet all their related needs.Tops Bit Web Solutions. also has as its lead development manager, Dharmendra Kumar,a main principal in the company. Dharmendra Kumar has two years of commercial Web development experience and has been recognized as a leader and innovator in the graphic design and layout areas of website development.

5.2 Marketing StrategySuccessful marketing of Web services to small business owners depends on how you approach and follow-up every potential client. It is very important to deliver our marketing pitch in a clear, no non-sense method. Details of the Internet and Web are still relatively unknown by many small business owners, giving it the tendency to confuse and intimidate easily.

5.2.1 Marketing ProgramsWe plan on doing a large scale marketing project during this month including (May 5 - June 5, 2016): Ad in newspapers Radio advertising (FM). Ad placement in local trade publications. Billboard Ads to promote wide-spread name recognition.

5.2.2 Pricing StrategyFor most small business owners, cost, both residual and one-time are huge influences on the decisions they make regarding everyday operations of their company. Even though we offer 100% customized services and our pricing is based on an hourly fee, to make it easier and less confusing for the clients, Webgrow has established a packaged pricing system. Budget Domain Website Package(Rs.5000): For simple, information based websites. Popular with companies who just need to gain an Internet presence.

Mid-Level Website Package(Rs.12000): Information based websites with a large amount of content. Popular with companies that have a large services/products list and/or want to implement more of their business into the Web.

Catalog Website Package(Rs.65000): Usually reserved for product-oriented websites that are e-commerce enabled. Popular with companies that have a desire tomarket heavily on the Internet or sell their products/services directly from the Web.

Website Hosting(from Rs.200 to Rs.300 per month): Depending on the type and size of the website, the price for hosting can vary greatly. The average cost of hosting for most clientsis Rs.250 per month.

Website Maintenance(Rs.300 per hour): We charge a set fee of Rs.300 per hour billed in 10 minute increments. If a client feels as though they will need their website updated or maintained on a regular basis, packages are available at a discount rate.

5.2.3 Promotion StrategyOur target client is part of a very specific demographic, for this reason, we market and promote our services in a direct and specifically targeted manner.

Print Ads: Currently we advertise in eight separate area yellow page directories.All our ads appear under either theInternet ServicesorWebsite Designheadings. Tops Bit Web Solutions. also has an ad listing in a national business directory under the heading ofWeb Developers. Newspaper advertisement will be purchased during the first three months of business until a clientele is built.

Direct Mail and Fax: We have sent out targeted bulk mail flyers promoting special offerings by our company. We have participated in targeted broadcast fax promotions to small businesses in our area. In the near future we will begin a new aggressive, ongoing bulk mail campaign to promote our Web development and hosting services.

Mass Media Ads: We will begin advertising on a broader scale within the next six months.Radio spots will be continuously played during local area talk shows and news programs, this placement is intended to reach the highest percentage of our target client possible. Billboard ad placement will be the second mass media marketing campaign we will implement into our marketing efforts.Billboard ads will be intended as 'name recognition' advertising.

5.3 Sales StrategyOur clients are small business owners, most are very protective of their company, and almost all of them are salesmen themselves. We sell value, service, and quality when we talk to business owners. We need to convince them that they can look past all of the hype surrounding the Internet and still see why having a website is worth the money spent.We currently utilize a database system specifically targeted toward our desired demographic to establish our first contact with every potential client. It has proven a successful method for soliciting new business directly due to the method in which we approach the first call. The salesman always requests to speak to the business owner, asking for him by his first name only, and when asked who is calling, responds by providing simply his first name as well. Once on the phone with the business owner, there is absolutely no script and the salesman clearly identifies himself and asks the business owner if he has ever considered having a website developed for his company, no matter what the response, a brief conversation will always pursue, sometimes leading to an appointment, and sometimes to a follow-up call.Because we have full confidence in our services, and recognize that business owners are generally open to the idea of utilizing the Internet and most even consider it a necessity, we take a very low-pressure, non-abrasive approach to direct selling. We will normally present the information about our company, portfolio, strengths, and pricing to the client and let them make the decision on their own. This method has proven successful provided that we keep our follow-up calls consistent and regular until we receive either a yes or no answer.

5.3.1 Sales ForecastThe following table and chart summarize our forecast sales. We expect the first month of operations (May) to be spent training the new developer and new salesman. June will be our first month of operation and we expect to grow steadily in the following months.Website development sales will be the largest portion of our revenue with result-based marketing following. Maintenance and hostingrevenuewill be built upslowly but are the residual base we will stand on in the future.
