Opportunity
Problem
Over the past several decades, the tourism industry has experienced a rapid growth rate of unparalleled nature. This is mainly due to the advent a ‘#8216’ borderless world and the increased dissemination of information about majestic scenes around the globe, including the southern African region.
Solution
Sephats Tours intends to provide individual and group travel to leisure clients. Sephats products and services will initially include pre-arranged trips, custom packages based on clients specifications, travel consulting, and lodging reservations as time goes by. Sephats Tours wants to be recognized as the most reputable adventure travel company in Gaborone, Botswana.
Market
Our focus will be on foreign tourists who are looking for leisure travel and excursions while on vacation in Botswana. We hope to help them appreciate and see the many attractions. While we recognize that South Africa is the largest tourist destination, we will concentrate on those who are not from South Africa. Our main focus will be on people who can travel but are not mobile enough to see all the sites. These people do not want the expense of hiring vehicles to transport themselves around but prefer to be guided by someone they trust to take them around. Hence the need to professionally market ourselves and the services we provide, offering a service of uncompromised nature.
Competition
Sephats Tours has identified other companies that fulfill the same needs. Some of them are well-established. We will market ourselves in a way that competitors customers will choose our service over others’ based on our better quality and more informative excursions.
Why Us
Sephats Tours has the potential to capitalize on this growth and moderate competition within the city travel sector. With a dedicated team, excellent networking, effective management, and marketing, Sephats Tours can take advantage. Sephats Tours aims to offer travel and adventure packages for tourists primarily in South Africa, but also throughout Botswana. Sephats offers a variety of products and services, such as pre-arranged tours or custom packages that are tailored to the clients’ specifications. They also offer travel consultation and lodging reservations. Sephats Tours aims to be the best adventure mobile operator in greater Gaborone.
Expectations
Forecast
We foresee a slow initial growth in sales, as we strive to ensure we are known on the market, though operating expenses will be relatively high, and a bump in our sales and revenue generation as we spread our services during expansion.
Important is the importance of collecting days. We don’t want to have our average collection days exceed the client’s actual subscription duration under any circumstance. This could cause a serious problem with cash flow, because our working capital situation is chronically tight. This is something that we know we cannot control, but we also recognize the importance of our relationship with clients.
