Executive summary
We'd like to bring spray hand sanitizers to market. That's the premise for this feasibility study.
"Rectifier" is the name we've given the product. We've opted to give the product a more local feel
because the raw components are readily available in our own country (Chernev, 2019).

We've decided to create three different product lines in order to better sell the product. Rectifier
would be available in 30 ml, 100 ml, and 500 ml sizes.

The product is aimed at a large market niche. It contains health-conscious people, sick people,
athletes and other consumers who have been demographically, geographically and behaviorally
categorized (Geektonight, 2022).

Introduction
A company's ability to generate revenue is directly correlated to the effectiveness of its marketing
strategies and plans. Increase your chances of turning leads into sales by narrowing your focus on
your ideal consumer in a smarter way (Ghose,2022).

Company: Aconite Laboratories

As part of a joint venture between the Rochdel Group and Uk packages Ltd., this company was
founded in 1995 as Aconite Laboratories. For the past 25 years, Aconite Laboratories has been the
market leader and pioneer in its field (Chernev, 2019).

Company’s Objective
 Our purpose is to propose a prospective personal care product that will complement Aconite's
existing product line.
 Our team developed a non-alcoholic hand sanitizer spray that kills bacteria instantly and
protects the skin (Stevens, et al., 2021).

Product Introduction
Our company’s existing products are:

 Facewash

Now, we're expanding our product line to include a spray sanitizer called, Rectifier (Chernev,
2019).

Brand Name: Rectifier

 Our .10 ounce (30ml) sprayer lasts 5-6 times longer than alcohol-based products and delivers
protection that is far superior to that of alcohol-based products as well as other sprayer too
(Summer, 2021).

Competitive Advantage
We will get some comparative advantage by marketing this product in the market.

 This is the first spray hand sanitizer of its sort; most hand sanitizers use gel bases. As a result,
Rectifier will enjoy a distinct advantage in the marketplace.
 Because of its non-alcoholic recipe, Rectifier will more likely to be accepted and recognized
by many social groups.
 This will be both antibacterial and antimicrobial patented composition (Summer, 2021).

Marketing Plan

SWOT Analysis

Strength
The brand is affiliated with a well-known firm. In addition, this will be the first spray-based cleaner. The
demographics of persons using hand sanitizer appear to be shifting. That's why we chose a market rich in
options. The simplicity of obtaining it. We will also provide attractive product packaging. Doctors will also
recommend this product (Teoli, et al., 2019).

Weakness
For this product a massive promotional expenditures are required. Besides, vast amount of people
is not aware of this kind of product (Mindtools, 2022).
 5

Opportunities
Due to the high frequency of the disease, hand sanitizers are in high demand. As a result, this could
potentially dominate the personal care sanitizer market. We also have a wide selection of products
relevant to our core industry and can expand our product line (Teoli, et al., 2019).

Threats
According to the aforementioned figures, the market is seeing a modest growth rate. Moreover,
the entry of one company into the market may encourage others to do the same. Furthermore,
promotional materials can be deceptive or useless (Mindtools, 2011).

Competitor Analysis

Major Competitor
Major competitors for our products are:

 Molton Brown
 Oskia
 Gloved
 Zenatti
 Crowshed

Overall Strategy Regarding Competition Responses

Brand Name
Instead of focusing on the overall style and design of the packaging, clients should consider the
prestige and hygienic care that only Rectifier can provide (Ghose,2022).
 6

Customer Loyalty
To ensure long-term customer loyalty, we are ensuring that our product is widely available in
chemist stores, supermarkets, and small businesses, ensuring that our potential customers can
readily obtain our product (Summer, 2021).

Opinion Leaders
Because of their expertise and training, doctors are the most effective spokespersons for our
product and the ones most likely to influence the buying decisions of those in our target market
(Teoli, et al., 2019).

Marketing Mix ( 4 P’s)

Product
Rectifier meets a basic demand of customers by protecting their families from viruses wherever.
It covers health-conscious people, sick people, athletes and other consumers who have been
demographically, geographically, psychographic segmentation and behaviorally profiled.
Everyone appreciates our guarantee to provide products free of bacteria, filth, and germs.
Rectifier's trust is proof that buyers have readily embraced their products. The organization has a
wide choice of products to satisfy their clients (Chernev, 2019).

Pricing Strategy
We endeavor to give exceptional value for all of our clients, regardless of their market position. A
thing's value is determined by its quality, ease, and speed of acquisition. We will always be cheaper
than our competitor (Geektonight, 2022).

We set a low price because we want everyone to be able to buy this item. As a result, we've used
the Target Costing pricing approach. We would have an advantage in the market because this is
our first product to hit the shelves (Stevens, et al., 2021).

Consumer price for our products are: £3 for every 30 ml. sprayer, £5 for 100 ml and £20 for 500
ml sprayer.

Positioning:
The goods are made at several UK factories. The items are then shipped to agents across the UK.
These agents act as a middleman. Our products are safely stored in personal warehouses. Agents
then deliver the goods to stores. Market watchers must alert the distributor to any changes. The
product will also be sold on online too through social media or our website (Teoli, et al., 2019).

Promotion:
Our company's major aim is the middle class. Our products have already captivated much of the
metropolitan market (Summer, 2021). Women are the decision makers in a middle class home
since they make all household choices. We can boost up sells by doing effective advertising
campaign through media like:

Giving add on the TV.

Newspaper:

Every month, for the next four months, our product would be featured on the second page of The
Times and The Financial Express, especially on Sundays (Chernev, 2019).

Discount:

We can also boost up our sells by giving discount during these pandemic. It will create a good
image upon our company too (Stevens, et al., 2021).
