COMPANY OVERVIEW AS A COMPANY, BIRCHBOX HA BEEN ABLE TO

CAPTIVATE THEIR AUDIENCE BY PROVIDING A REVOLUTIONARY SERVICE THAT WAS A FIRST IN ITS CLASS. SOURCING A NICHE MARKET AND BEING ABLE

TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT OPPROTUNITY TO INTRODUCE A COSMETIC SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE, BIRCHBOX

HAS

BEEN

ABLE

TO

SUCCESSFULLY

SUSTAIN THEIR PLACE WITHIN THE MARKET. NOW,

AFTER FIVE YEARS IN EXISTANCE, THE GOAL FOR

THE COMPANY IS TO MAKE ANOTHER BIG LEAP TO CONVERT SUBSCRIBERS TO LOYAL RETURNING CUSTOMERS THROUGH THE IMPLEMENTATION OF NEW AND INNOVATIVE IDEAS.

FOR BIRCHBOX, COMPETITORS CAN BE FOUND

DIRECTLY AND INDIRECTLY. IPSY AND GLOSSYBOX ARE MOST SIMILAR TO BIRCHBOX IN THAT THEY FALL INTO THE ONLINE SUBSCRIPTION CATEGORY. THESE

COMPANIES

ARE

SEEKING

TO

REACH

SIMILAR CUSTOMERS BY PROVIDING AN INCENTIVE

AT THEIR DOORSTEP EVERY MONTH. COMPANIES LIKE SEPHORA AND ULTA, HOWEVER, INDIRECTLY TARGET

BIRCHBOX

CUSTOMERS

BECAUSE

OF

THEIR ALREADY ESTABLISHED BRAND IMAGE AND WIDE VARIETY OF SELECTION AVAILABLE ONLINE THROUGH IN BRICK AND MORTAR LOCATIONS.


POP-UP SHOP LOCATION

TO INTRODUCE A NEW POP-UP SHOP FOR

BIRCHBOX, WE HAVE SELECTED THE CITY OF

SAVANNAH,

GEORGIA

TO

BASE

OUR

LOCATION. THIS CITY WAS CHOSEN AS IT IS

A CENTRALIZED HUB FOR COLLEGE STUDENTS

AND TOURISTS ALIKE. THE POP-UP SHOP WILL BE ESTABLISHED IN ELLIS SQUARE, A

LOCATION FREQUENTLY VISITED BY LOCALS AND SCAD STUDENTS. DUE TO ITS PROXIMITY

TO RIVER STREET, RESTAURANTS, SHOPS,

AND HOTELS, IT IS ALSO A POPULAR AREA FOR TOURISTS TO VISIT. THIS SHOP WILL

SERVE TO PROMOTE BRANDS THAT BIRCHBOX CURRENTLY CARRIES AS WELL AS THE NEW BIRCHBOX BATH LINE. ADDITIONALLY, WE

HAVE CHOSEN TO HOLD THIS POP-UP SHOP DURING THE MONTH OF OCTOBER TO DONATE

MONEY TO BREAST CANCER AWARENESS. AS A PART OF THIS STRATEGY, BIRCHBOX WILL

DONATE A PORTION OF THE PROCEEDS FROM NEW SUBSCRIPTION MEMBERSHIPS TO THE SUSAN G. KOMEN FOUNDATION.
