4.1 Service Business Analysis

What is Timeshare?

Timeshare is a form of holiday ownership. You own the right (either directly or through a
"club") to use a week (or longer) in an apartment or villa on a holiday resort for a great many
years or in perpetuity.
Over six million families own timeshare worldwide - the majority well satisfied with their
ownership.

Timeshare accommodation is generally of a much higher standard than hotel or rented


accommodation. And most resorts have extensive leisure facilities (almost always free to use).
All timeshare is self-catering.

Accommodation ranges from a modest studio (a single bedroom) to apartments and villas with
three bedroom, three bathrooms, lounge, dining etc. with appointments of an exceptionally high
standard.

Timeshare competes with package holidays (where timeshare offers higher standards of
accommodation) and villa rental (where timeshare can offer better long term value-for-money).

- 14 -
Timeshare comes in two basic forms:

•Fixed week. Where you own rights to a specific week, usually in a specific
apartment/villa, which you can either return to every year or through the exchange system
for something similar in another part of the world and in another time period.
•Floating system (which includes points clubs). Instead of owing a specified week, you
own a week (or a time period which may be longer than a week) within a seasonal band
of time. Each year you have to book the specific week that you want - this is "subject to
availability".

A major strength of timeshare is the certainty that it provides. Accommodation (and often leisure
facilities) being held in trust (or registered in a public register) for the lifetime of the right to use.
So, provided that you continue to pay the annual fees on time, you are certain of getting your
holidays every year.
And when you tire of timeshare you can sell your rights on to someone else.

Most timeshare owners use the exchange system which provides an enormous choice (nearly
6,000 resorts in all the popular destinations worldwide) to swoop to - knowing that the place you
are going to is of a similar high standard to that which you own.

When you buy timeshare you pay a once off payment for the right to use and, each year, a fee
which pays for the accommodation etc. to be kept clean, in good order, local taxes paid etc.

The buying choices are:-

1. From a professional reseller.


• Gives you not less than 14 days cooling-off period
• Places buyer' s money (and sellers Ownership Certificate) in an independent stakeholder
account
• Certifies to the buyer that the week being purchased is free of all debt
• Confirms whether the week has been banked with an exchange company - and whether this
banking is available to the buyer
2. From the Owners Club, Management Company or a contracted agent

Many owners ask their Club (or Management Company) to sell their week. At resorts where the
developer has finished selling "new" weeks this is a convenient way for owners to sell and has
the benefit of allowing the buyer to see the resort on a try before buy basis before committing
themselves.

3. Directly from an owner.

5.0 Marketing Strategy

There are effective strategies that will assure that the company will reach the greatest number of
potential customers. Bell's Apartments will turn prospects into customers through a variety of
marketing strategies.

Bell'
s Apartments has a four pronged strategy:

1. Advertising: A large number of visitors will look to their local and regional newspapers and
other publications for information about the different accommodations in the Caribbean. We
intend to advertise through various publications media.

2. Website/Online Marketing: Bell' s Apartment will use a comprehensive, full service website
that allows the visitors to view the Apartment Complex, read details about what it has to offer,
provide information on regional activities, even allow the visitor to book a reservation. With the
growing use of the Internet, the web has become an indispensable toll people have for planning
vacations to far regions. Apart from the establishment of web presence, Bell' s will make an effort
to utilize new marketing technologies to drive traffic to their website as well as other forms of
online marketing.

3. Direct Marketing: Bell' s Apartment would be producing their own publications such as
brochures and flyers and place them in strategic locations. Also Bell'
s would be involved in
Database Marketing as a medium for creating awareness about their services and facilities.

4. Strategic Relationships: Bell' s Apartment will develop a partnership with time-share vendors
and other international travel agencies. Agencies such as RCI will be targeted to facilitate time-
share exchanges. Also marketing agencies such as Intimate Hotels of Barbados will be targeted.

Also other local strategic relationships such as the Kingstown Medical College and St. Georges
University, Grenada will be important to assist students in need of accommodations. Other
strategic Alliances are currently being explored.

- 16 -
5.1 Sales Forecast

The first five months will be used for the construction of the apartment complex to fully
accommodate guests. Once complete, the apartments will host four different apartments. There
will be little sales activity during this time. By month four, the Bell'
s Apartments will be ready to
go.

Chris and Avita Foyle will have already started advertising in newspapers and other forms of
media as well as formed a strategic relationship with timeshare vendors. The university and other
institutions by month two, so business will ramp up quickly.

7.0 Financial Plan

This section will offer a financial overview of Bell'


s apartments as it relates to the marketing
activities. Bell'
s Apartments will address the break-even analysis, sales forecasts; expenses
forecast and how those link to the marketing strategy.

The main financial objective is to grow for each future year.

Timeshare owners would pay an upfront deposit for their timeshare unit plus all owners would
share maintenance fees, management fees and costs to upkeep common areas such as pools.
Time Share ownership arrangements would be a combination of the following; fixed unit, fixed
week, deeded agreement, floating agreement, right to use plan or a lease agreement.

The remainder of the time, Bell'


s Apartments will be rented to other target groups.

7.1 Important Assumptions

Operating Inflows
Sales
Sales revenues constitute the majority of the cash inflows for this project. There are three main
factors to consider when estimating sales revenues
• The capacity available,
• The selling price, and
• The timing of the sales

These are all crucial factors to valuing this project.

Allowing two weeks for maintenance and transition time between customers, we then multiply
fifty weeks by the total number of units (4 Rooms) to find the possible capacity (200 vacation
weeks).

However, the average capacity of time-share resorts within the Caribbean is 75%. We assume
comparable pressures on St. Vincent for annual repairs, cannibalization of units, and excess
occupancy. Therefore, the likely capacity for the Bell’s Apartments Time share project is 80
vacation weeks (.75*200).

The Bell’s Apartments will set the confirmation of a per unit sales price.

We have taken weighted averages of seasonal prices in order to derive a single price for each
type of unit.
Hotels charge normally about $70US/night $70-$100US

Timeshare Blocks - Minimum 1 week block.


2 bedroom *2 = $250 ($500)
3 bedroom = $300
4 bedroom = $350
Finally, we have made estimates regarding the timing of contract sales.
- 19 -
While largely a subjective exercise, we feel that our estimates are reasonable. Based on the
premise that marketing efforts may require deals such as complimentary three-day vacations, we
have estimated the maximum number of sales contacts on a weekly basis to be slightly higher
than two times the total number of units.

In addition, a sales period of 40 weeks attempts to account for seasonal variations. By


contracting with an outside timeshare sales company, this volume is likely to be sustained.
According to RCI 20-25% of all sales contacts result in a sale. Assuming a 20% closing rate, we

75% occupancy rates by year 5.
