SITE PREPARATION
The business will be renting a space along hi-way near to malls, and schools, were our target customers are mainly students and nearby neighborhood especially those people whoserelatives or loved ones are at abroad and find it very convenient communicating with themthrough chat and email.

Site survey is primarily our main concern inthis preparation. On our site survey we find out that the site has less than 5 competitors andits a good sign of putting up the business.We choose the location, at #82 Samson Road at Caloocan City, beside Asian TrustBank. Its about 40 square meters. It is the ideal place to establish an internet caf because itis accessible to public because its along the highway and our target market is mostly students,near to schools like Divine Mercy College, Sacred Heart, St. Gabriel Academy and GomburzaElementary School. We choose this site because we found out that competitors are minimal inthe place. Its an urbanized area were accessibility, competency and we study niche/market, asour main objective while choosing this site.

In competency and study of niche/market, the proposedlocation is a commercial place, so the prospective customers is almost everybody. Most of theInternet shop located in the area is inside the malls while the competitors outside is justminimal, and for that we are more capable of attracting customers because we will offer moreaffordable rental fee in 15 pesos per hour.
