Vision
MARKET DEFINITION
18-29: big parts of this category are the young adults, which contributes a large number on the
GFC’s target market. This would also include people from the community and rookie employees. This
the age is the millennial generation, wherein people are concerned on how they look. The vanity within
them would be the opportunity of the GFC.
PRODUCT DEFINITION
Our gym offers membership packages to avail the use of fitness equipment, weight loss program, Yoga
classes and Zumba sessions. We also provide a studio rental of the open area that the gym has;
customers may use it as a dance studio.
SERVICES OFFERED
- Use of gym equipment (open for walk-ins and GFC members)
- Training with a gym instructor, either one-on-one or by group
- Use of Shower Area/Locker Rooms/Comfort Rooms
- Others service:
o Zumba and Yoga sessions with licensed instructors in the Open Area
o Open Area may also be used as Dance Studio
We have observed that most gym-goers are men that make some
women get intimidated and people have a notion that gyms have exclusivity.
That the reason why GFC offers Yoga and Zumba sessions to entice women to
go to the gym.
COMPETITORS
The main competitors of GFC would be 360 Fitness Club Manila, Human Energy Boxing & Fitness Gym,
and Fitness first. All of these gyms are located within 5 km. of the proposed location site.
SCOPE
Strength
The Key Strength is the price of the membership fee. Members will pay small amount on a
monthly basis for indefinite usage of the facility and services. Our gym will offer flexible hours
for the busy members. The policy is helpful in attracting average person rather than being a
center for bodybuilders only.
Weaknesses
A looming weakness is our unknown brand name and not having an established client base will
clearly need addressing. And also requires much focus is that the GFC has few options
concerning the exercise equipment and facilities they provide compared to other fitness
centers.
Opportunities
Influences in social media; people become more self-conscious.
Interest in exercise and fitness means to better health will also increase; it also means joining a
fitness club to keep fit.
Threats
Younger generation do not have the money to afford gym.
MARKET SEGMENTATION
TARGET MARKET
The customers will be categorized according to demographic segmentation, geographic
segmentation and customers’ consideration.
Demographic Segmentation
According to gender
According to research study, male tend to use more gym equipment than female do. The reason
behind this is that female tends to use equipment that would exert less effort in contrast to male that
does the other way. On the other hand, female dominates Yoga and Zumba classes than male do.

Customers’ Consideration
According to study, the most important factors from the point of view of customers in finding
the right gym that would fit their need are -- the price of service provided, accessibility of the fitness
center, the flexibility of the schedule it offers, the service itself, and lastly the maintenance of the fitness
center and its equipment. The correlation of these factors to the GFC:
Price
GFC would give flexible price depending on the customer preferred fitness package. This
is to ensure that the customer would not pay more than what they need. There will be discounts
given for the students and senior citizens. Also, there will be privileges for those who would
avail the membership in the fitness center.

target market.

Nation station, and, various vehicle (PUJs and PUVs) stop which would make it accessible even
from distant places.
