Competitive advantage
Based locally in Norway. With the right marketing, it should be possible to gain an audience. It is also close to Denmark, Germany, France, where this kind of music is more popular.
Key stakeholders
Investors. Studio and music equipment is expensive, so investments are necessary. And to keep investors happy, I need to sell music, both my own, and produced for others, by renting out studio time. Listenesres must also be kept happy, so that they will continue to stream and buy music, and come to shows.
Value proposition
It will appeal to a mature audience, who remember the 80’s and beginning of electronic music, and be attractive to listen to music and invest.
Target Marked
Target audience are grownups who enjoy listen to music, and especial electronic music. These are people who remember the 80s, and appreciate the electronic sound. Kids who listen to chart music is not the target group
