dedicated to doing each job right the first time, and retaining each car owner as a lifetime
customer of our shop.
The company is a state chartered corporation in Ohmstate, owned by Isoroku
Tarnmaclahan. The has owner worked for other shops in the Highland Valley area for the
past 20 years, and is committed to excellence every day. This new space allows the
company retain more work. The office area is comprised of 500 square feet and the shop
area where the day-to-day work on the cars is performed is 5,000 sq.ft.
The population of the seven communities in close proximity to Phaethon's Chariot
Restorations is estimated at 918,279. Roughly, this would mean that this area comprises a
total restoration market in excess of $2.0 million annually. The company's goal is to a
acquire a comfortable minority share of this nearby market.
The marketing research and tailored marketing strategy described in this business plan will
result in modest after-tax profits of in year 1, quadrupling after-tax profits within three

1.1 Objectives
1. Penetrate the automotive restoration market here in the Highland Valley. Within the next
twelve months, it is the objective of the company to market to the local area to promote
our business in the Highland Valley and surrounding areas, our market segment will be

the owner's involvement in simple administrative tasks from 50% of his time to 20%,

2.0 Company Summary

Phaethon's Chariot is an auto restoration shop located in Centerton, Ohmstate. The
company is engaged in the restoration of 1970 and earlier American cars, and the building
of custom hot rods. Body work and rust repair is the majority of our work. The total market
for auto restoration in the communities which the company targets is approximately $2.7
million. The share of this market channeled through auto restoration shops and word of
mouth is directly proportional to disposable income.
Phaethon's Chariot Restorations is best suited to serving the high-end customer share of
the auto restoration market because clients of auto restoration can afford expensive
materials and custom solutions. The company is unable to compete with large shops
geared to mass production runs, nor can it's pricing compete with the many "insurance job"
body repair shops. The company is dedicated to providing the highest quality workmanship,
meeting the agreed delivery dates, and executing the custom work exactly in accordance
with the customers concept.
2.1 Company Ownership
The company, Phaethon's Chariot Restorations, is a corporation registered in Ohmstate,
owned by Isoroku Tarnmaclahan.
2.2 Start-up Summary
The company founder, Mr. Isoroku Tarnmaclahan, will manage day-to-day operations of
the business and will work collaboratively with all employees to ensure that this business
venture is a success.
It is estimated that the start-up costs will include legal costs, advertising, one month's rent
and utilities, and related expenses. An additional amount will be required as start-up
assets, including heavy equipment and cash on hand. The owner's existing tools comprise
part of the current assets. Total Start-up Requirements are detailed in the table below.

3.0 Products and Services

Phaethon's Chariot Restorations will sell classic car restoration services to the general
public at a shop rate of $45 per hour. This will include complete frame off restoration work
for all makes of American classic cars and muscle cars. We will perform tasks such as
mechanical repairs on older American cars, body and paint restoration including rust repair,
electrical repair, as well as custom engine building, custom paint and metal fabrication.
We specialize in pre-1970 American cars and trucks, and average frame off restoration will
take 600 hours of labor, therefore our average labor charge for a complete restoration is
approximately $27,000. There are additional charges for any parts that we have to get for
the job. Phaethon's Chariot will perform any kind of work on pre 1970 American
cars including, but not limited to regular mechanical service, and body and paint work.
4.0 Market Analysis Summary
TARGET MARKET
The type of customer who will be interested in the services of Phaethon's Chariot are
predominantly male, and in the age range from 30 to 65 years. The majority will have an
income in the $100,000 and up range. Some customers in the lower income ranges are
interested in specific services, interior restoration, or paint work and parts sales rather than
full restorations.
Page 5

Phaethon's Chariot Restorations

The customers who Phaethon's Chariot plans to target want :

1. Quality full restoration or custom services, including engine, custom body work and
paint.
2. Timely completion of the work on their cars.
3. Competitive rates.
4. Close attention to detail, and commitment to quality.
5. Ability to offer ideas for alternatives and close customer services.
Phaethon's Chariot has the ability to meet all these demands. The owner has a long work
history in this field, and has extremely high standards in regards to the shop's work. The
owner and the foreman will make sure that the shop's employees meet these standards.
The owner also understands that, not only quality work, but the attention and care
bestowed on the customer and their cars will result in a good reputation.
LOCATION
There is no specific geographical location for potential customers. They are located all over
the United States. They send their cars to whom and where they feel will do the best job,
based on reputation. This reputation comes largely from "word of mouth", i.e. seeing the
quality of a car that was restored by Phaethon's Chariot at a show, and referrals by others
in the business. We feel that eventually 50% of Phaethon's Chariot's customers will come
from out of state.
INDUSTRY TRENDS
This is a large market that has seen an upturn in the last few years. All indications are that
this will continue for many years until leveling off at possibly double or triple the
current market. One company in this area, Car Barn Renewals, has a waiting list of three
years. They not taking any new business at this time. The owner of this shop is well
acquainted with the quality of work that will be preformed by Phaethon's Chariot and
has indicated to Mr. Isoroku Tarnmaclahan that he would refer anyone inquiring about new
services to Phaethon's Chariot. This will not only increase the number of potential
customers for Phaethon's Chariot in the start-up phase, but will provide a valuable word-ofmouth reputation for them.
COMPETITION
There are two other companies in the Centerton area that offer services similar to
Phaethon's Chariot's. One has been in business for 40 years and has an extremely high
reputation within the restoration community. They currently have more work than the shop
can handle and has a waiting list of three years. They are not taking any new
customers. They also usually has one or more cars in most shows. The owner of
Phaethon's Chariot worked for them while learning his trade.

Page 6

Phaethon's Chariot Restorations

The other shop has been in business 15 years. They currently have a wait of 160 days for
any new work. However most of their work is new business (first time customers) as their
reputation in the community is not good and they rarely have repeat business.
PRICING
Phaethon's Chariot's labor rates will be $45 per hour. Both of the other shops charge $65
per/hr. Phaethon's Chariot feels that this is a competitive rate and will not impact the bottom
line in a negative manner.
ADVERTISING
Phaethon's Chariot has a modest program of marketing its services that include the
following:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.

Flyers
Discounts
Newspaper and magazines ads
Press releases and magazines articles
Car shows
Local radio stations
Website
Calendars

Each of these marketing approaches has the advantage of being low cost and creating
service awareness. The company is also considering the possibility of having a grand
opening program that would feature discounts, food, a local radio disc jockey and other
promotional ideas.
We feel that the company website is one of our best marketing strategies. It is linked to City
Search.com and many other classic car restoration oriented websites and portals. The site
has news about our business, answers to FAQ's and pictures of cars we've restored and
the process of the restoration.
4.1 Market Segmentation
The market for auto restoration reflects the buyer's income bracket and standard of living in
much the same way that the restoration market is segmented. Below are listed market
segments based on size of pocketbook and quality of production:
1. Material Outlets. Suppliers of auto body and paint supplies, interior supplies and
mechanical parts.
2. Simple jobs. Simple repair jobs and service are the next level in our sales chain.
3. Paint. Custom paint work such as murals and flames, will provide some income.
4. Restoration. Complete restoration jobs, and complete paint work.
5. Custom Work. Custom body work such as, top chops and channels, this would be
considered our high end of work.
Page 7

Phaethon's Chariot Restorations

The average age of our customers is 30 to 65 years old with an average income is $60,000
per year, with most full restoration customers having incomes of over $100,000. The
gender is predominantly male, with a college education, and coming from Centerton county
and surrounding areas. Some of the more recent trends come from the increasing
coverage of our industry on television, with shows such as American Muscle Car, Dream
Car Garage and the like. These types of shows have helped auto restoration to grow to a
billion dollar a year industry in the United States.

4.2 Target Market Segment Strategy

Our target market segment strategy includes the use of local radio and television stations to
convey the word about our business. We also plan on using advertising in publications
Page 8

Phaethon's Chariot Restorations

such as Hot Rod and Super Chevy magazines. These publications are distributed to a wide
variety of people who are all interested in old American cars, and muscle cars. Our strategy
includes using people's emotions to persuade them to restore an old car if they have one.
We're not limited to just a couple of different types of advertising, we also us flyers,
discounts, newspapers, press releases and magazine articles. Our website, which is a well
designed, and cost effective way to tell people about our shop and it's services, Phaethon's
Chariot will use every way within it's means to convey our message to the public.
Our market strategy is to flood the magazines and air waves with our shop's
advertisements, doing radio ads during morning and afternoon drive times. This is due to
the fact that more people listen to the radio during these time frames, so if you have a really
catchy ad during these time it's probable that you will gain some customers from it. The
magazine publications go out to hundreds of thousands of people every month, so all we
need is to convert a small percentage to sales and we'll achieve our success. But we don't
stop there, we are also joining the chamber of commerce to network our business. We will
use flyers at the car shows to promote or shop, and of course business cards.
4.3 Service Business Analysis
In setting a foundation on which to build a suitable market strategy for Phaethon's Chariot,
some of the other local industry players were contacted by phone. These players are
located in the greater Centerton area.
We called Classy Chassis and posed as a potential customer with a 1969 Z/28 Camaro for
a full restoration project, and from this call we discovered that their labor rate runs at $65
per hour, and it would take about 600 hours of labor to restore the car plus parts. The labor
before parts were added worked out to $39,000. This is for a frame off restoration,
rebuilding the entire car from ground up. We also discovered that it would take about 160
days to get the car into their shop to start the project.
We have also talked to Khamm Zhaapht from Car Barn Renewals, and have discovered
that he's running the same shop rates as Classy Chassis, but he has a three year waiting
list for his shop services, Khamm only does the highest quality work, having cars in most of
the shows at one time or another, Car Barn Renewals is very well known both in and out of
Ohmstate.
4.3.1 Competition and Buying Patterns
The general nature of competition in this business, and how the customers seem to choose
one shop over another can be measured by customer loyalty and positive word of mouth.
Customer loyalty and shop preference come from developing a trust between the customer
and the business. To be successful in the automotive restoration business, one must truly
believe in the old American cars and love them. The customer must truly be made to feel
welcome and cared for. The trust that a customer feels, is based upon the business' ability
to recognize what it takes to please a customer, and then is built upon by continuously
delivering to that customer at, or above, the that they expect.
Page 9

Phaethon's Chariot Restorations

The level of attention and care that our staff bestow upon our customers sets us far above
our competition. We also have extremely high standards for professionalism in the shop.
Cleanliness, adherence to all shop rules, and efficiency are constantly applied. Prices are
reasonable, and are perceived as being an exceptional value. Our shop offers the highest
quality restoration work available today, we use only the highest quality parts and supplies
on all of our jobs. All of this can be found in a professional shop environment, and very
comfortable for our customers.
5.0 Strategy and Implementation Summary
Image is a key factor in making inroads into the higher echelons of auto
restoration. Phaethon's Chariot's strategy is to lift its image, through advertising in
prestigious trade publications, networking with a Chamber of Commerce membership, and
actively marketing to a select group of people located in and around the company's target
market area.
5.1 Competitive Edge
The company seeks to establish a competitive edge in its new target market segment by
increasing the level of customer contact and service that other competitors seem to
oftentimes lack. Additionally, Phaethon's Chariot Restorations possesses the necessary
skills to produce the high quality restorations that are needed in this field. The
establishment of the previously mentioned work processes that will ensure greater service
will strengthen the contacts that promote word-of-mouth marketing and networking.
Our competitive edge will come from hard work and customer satisfaction, we will only
produce top quality work that is show ready when it leaves the shop. This will spawn good
word of mouth, which will in turn generate work from past and present customers of our
shop.
5.2 Marketing Strategy
As mentioned in the previous section, it is important to the marketing strategy to develop an
attractive image to the trade. This can be done in a number of ways:
1. Advertising. Most restoration shops interviewed suggested Hemmings Motor News as
the best place to advertise. In the regional telephone directory Yellow Pages two
classification are possible: Auto Restoration--Antique & Classic, or Auto Body Repair &
Paint. These two publications both have directories. In Hemmings, a color 1/4 page ad
would run $1,700 per month for a year if signed by December 1, 2004, which provides a
15% discount. This averages out to $1,411 per insertion, even less for black and white.
A quarter page ad in the Yellow Pages runs $1,200 a year.
2. Join The Chamber of Commerce. The image of Phaethon's Chariot
Restorations would be elevated by joining the Chamber of Commerce. This would cost
only $300 per year. Advertising on their electronic sign alongside the Interstate is free
for 90 days. At present the sign would give 100 impressions per day to the shop. We
Page 10

Phaethon's Chariot Restorations

expect this to increase Phaethon's income by about 10% during that 90-day period.
3. Advertising. Development of a top quality logo and photography which can be used in
ads, brochures, name cards, etc. Not counting printing costs, which vary by quantity and
quality of paper chosen, the design costs for this would run about $1,500. A day's
photography would be an additional $850-$1,600.
4. Participation in Car Shows. Another image-building marketing tactic is participating in
local car shows. These car shows are held just for the fun of it. This would require time
and effort, but not much in the way of money. This should be coordinated to
insure compatibility with the show's concept and our image. If we attend a show out of
the local area, costs would increase due to the expense of food, lodging, and protected
transportation of a finished car to the show. A photo album can never compete with the
real hardware.
In addition to the above-mentioned activities designed to elevate the company's image, it is
essential to market directly to the selected target clients who all go to local car shows.
Success in making inroads into these names would set the stage for entry into the more
prestigious auto restorers guild.
Marketing these prime prospects must be carried out in a thoughtful organized way. Color
literature including the newly designed logo should be completed as a first step. When
marketing these prospects it will be important to present a portfolio of Phaethon's
Chariot's most innovative work. A relaxed face-to-face meeting, resulting in good
communication between Phaethon's Chariot and the project car's owners, should be all
that's needed to generate a first order.
Networking is also very useful. It is important, once the logo and artwork materials have
been completed, for the owner to make a point of introducing herself to important players in
the restoration world surrounding Centerton. Good contacts include hot rod businesses,
parts stores, custom car clubs, suppliers of paint, etc.
5.3 Sales Strategy
The marketing strategy discussed previously in this business plan will generate the desired
sales. These sales will begin with our website, and the Chamber of Commerce. It is a
stated objective to transfer the administrative burden away from the owner, freeing up his
time to meet with clients, to network at car shows and events, and to market the shop to
prospective clients. This means that someone else will be answering the incoming calls.
This person must be carefully trained to recognize who must be called back immediately by
the owner. The shop owner needs--and expects--close contact with the shop foreman.
The shop is under pressure to produce the highest quality work possible, for example, a car
that's going to shows is going to foster sales. The owner must be armed with a cell phone
and a pager. The important caller should be told that the owner will "call right back." The
more successful the marketing strategy is in making inroads into our share of
the restoration market, the more important this communication response will become.
Page 11

Phaethon's Chariot Restorations

In respect to the prospect list of clients, it is essential that a "salesman's" approach be

adopted to insure an organized, orderly approach to each prospect. Notes need to be kept
on each client. Follow-up and persistence will pay off.
5.3.1 Sales Forecast
The Sales Forecast is divided up into the major categories of restoration work, paint work
and service. Unit sales includes the yearly forecast of each per category, based on an
average of 40 labor hours per item and forecasted capacity given the personnel changes
mentioned in the Personnel Section. The category prices reflect the average cost per
category, based on past pricing strategies. Since the company deals with providing custom
services, this can vary wildly between jobs. Due to target market, estimated increase
in category price is reflected in years 2004 and 2005. Direct category costs reflect direct
costs in producing the items but does not including labor.
It is estimated that by FY 2006, revenues will reflect a 10% market share of the local
restoration market, and that we will be completing one full restoration each month. As our
market share becomes established we believe we can raise our shop rates from $45 to $50
and then to $55 per hour in years two and three of this plan. We will still be priced below
the current rate charged by other area shops.

Phaethon's Chariot Restorations is currently made up of two employees who will put in a
standard 40 hours of work per week, we intend that our shop will use no sub-contractors,
and will hire new people as the volume of work demands.

Page 15

Phaethon's Chariot Restorations

7.1 Personnel Plan

All work is produced by our restoration staff and one shop foreman. All employees put in
full 40-hour weeks. Additional technicians will be added where necessary and in line with
success in penetrating the plan's target market. By the end of March 2005, it is assumed
that increased business volume will require two techs to put in a full 40-hour week. By the
end of June 2005, increased volume will require hiring a new painter / body man working a
30-hour/week, and increasing to 40 hour/week by end of September. By the
end 2006, Phaethon's Chariot Restorations will have five techs working full-time. It is
assumed that a sixth tech will be added in either FY 2007 or 2008, depending on demand
volume.

8.4 Projected Cash Flow

As can be seen from the Cash Flow chart and table below, Phaethon's Chariot
Restorations has a number of advantages that provide for a large amount of growth in the
Page 21

Phaethon's Chariot Restorations

company's cash account. Because it is the company's policy that the clients to provide
the parts for the the restoration, the company has a very low cost of goods sold account
and therefore a high gross margin. Clients can purchase the parts themselves, or if they
prefer to have us make the purchase, we will locate the part, charge the customer's credit
card, and then purchase the part from the supplier/vendor.
Furthermore, the custom nature of the business means that there is no inventory cost to
speak of or accounts payable. With the ability to generate so much cash flow, it is assumed
that the company will seek to use this asset to expand its markets and production capacity
in the near future.
