Presentation Transcript

  1. STRENGHTS • Young team • Acceptable database • Good image • Large international network • Very good relations with export promotion organizations • An integrated marketing structure in most operations. • Leaders in construction shows • Profitability with a 2 digits growth between 09 and 10 • 30 years of experience • Very healthyfinancial situation

  2. WEAKNESSES • Lack of experience due to many new recruits and absence of proper training and induction. • Centralization of decision making: Bottle neck at Chairman’s level. • Absence of proper copywriting • Lack of communication between sister companies • Sisterhood abuse: Taken for granted. • No political protection in most markets(KSA, Qatar, Syria and Iraq). • Absence of long term agreements with all venues except Lebanon. • Vulnerability to political and security instability. • Limited business development: Very few new themes and concepts were created in the last 2 decades • Database updating is still not systematic: same way, same efficiency in all operations. • No meeting of deadlines regarding all printings: Delay in brochures, Visproms, PME… • Agents that only promote subsidized shows leaving smaller shows untouched. • Absence of dedicated outgoing sales persons in each operation resulting in thousands of dollars of opportunity cost. • lack of visits by project managers to leading international and regional shows

  3. OPPORTUNITIES • Strengthening sub profiles: Elenex, Stone. • Centralizing the construction shows management and corporate image. • Adding more conferences with and without concurrent exhibitions. • Selling more sponsorships in all exhibitions. • Charging entrance fees. • Exporting successful experiences such as Education/outdoors/PPP/ • Creating new profiles and shows such as health fitness and beauty/kids shows/women’s world/outdoors.. • Teaming up with world leaders. • Strengthening the Events division at head office and creating a network in each operation. • Moving to new markets: Syria, Egypt and Nigeria. • Venturing with REAL magazine and cross marketing. • Investing more in the matchmaking division(Team/data/marketing the department)

  4. THREATS • Increasing competition mainly in KSA and Iraq. • Financial crisis • Security situation in the region. War with Iran will badly affect group turnover. • Moodiness and unpredictability of venues. • Non protection of themes. • Dying profiles: Furniture, fashion, Jewelry. • Availability of space and timing at venues: Qatar,KSA,Iraq and soon Lebanon. • Greediness of exhibition centers. Prices and conditions are increasing yearly in some locations. • Change in Ministries and chambers behavior: They all want a share of the cake.
