Business Concept:
Our vision is to be leaders to customers who look for a lively atmosphere that allows them to feel inclusive in a community of individuals who share a passion for having new experiences. By providing our customers with the essential tools and resources for having a good time, such as music, drinks, safety, and a space to dance, customers are able to feel inclusive in a lively community.
Our mission is to be the leading and reputable company of club entertainment in Canada. We believe that our business idea is successful as it implements satisfaction and provides experiences to consumers in the targeted market. Our target market includes a viable atmosphere that is lively with individuals who are similar in choices, such as love for dancing. The business project is ideal in the sense that not many companies have entered the market as costs to start a club might be quite high. Therefore, startup costs and budgeting need to be considered prior to beginning the business process. We aim to compete in a differential strategy as it allows us to diversify our options across societies, we aim to be different in the way we manage the club, the external appearance, and the entertainment.
The company is called Ice Cube. The reason for the name is because the theme of the club is basically a large cube, and the ice is for all ice in the drinks distributed around the club. One hand to another, it represents the company wherever they go. Also, Canada has a cold atmosphere, most individuals go clubbing in the winter (since winters are long), therefore, the theme, amenities, and identity of the club are represented in the name.
