The company is located in Florence, Oregon, where there is adequate storage and office space available.
There are two marketable products stemming from the same patent. One will result in royalties when the patent is licensed to the right fishing gear marketing company. The other is a kit which makes it possible for a certain narrow segment of fishing enthusiasts to make up the Supreme before it is actually ready for mass distribution.
The Supreme is a standard hook combined with a specially-designed bait holder that eliminates the drawbacks of the conventional methods of attaching live bait. Initial, non-laboratory testing of the Supreme has shown an increased enjoyment of the sport. This is as a result of greater attraction of fish to the live bait swim action and increased hook-ups because of the full-hook exposure. The invention also has wider application in use with shrimp or crab bait, as well as with dead bait trolling.
Benefits of the Invention
Do-it-yourself Kits :
As mentioned earlier, before the invention can be manufactured and brought to market, the Supreme can be marketed in kit form. This kit contains barbs, which are an essential element of the hook. They are crimped onto most any commercial hook and fixed with epoxy. All the apparatus for doing this is contained in the kit, including the necessary crimping tool. Additional barbs can be purchased at minimal cost, making the kit attractive to a narrow segment of enthusiastic fisherman.
Prototypes for the kit are ready to be shown to wholesalers and retailers. As of this writing, an initial order of 250 kits has already been received. However, kits will not be ready for sale until January 2001.
This product is unique. A normal competitive comparison analysis cannot be offered. However, do-it-yourself kits are not unknown in the industry. Section 5.2.2, Pricing Strategy, lists several of these kits and their prices.
Excellent graphics have been prepared to demonstrate the features of the hook. These need to be incorporated into a brochure that will double as a mailer. We will add contact information, including phone and fax numbers, and our website address. This project is currently under way.
Sourcing of the raw materials to produce the kits is not difficult as there is more than one supplier of each essential part of the kit. Some suppliers are located further from Oregon than is wished, but as sales of the kits increase, opportunities to obtain suppliers closer to home are expected.
Future products are already on the drawing board at Seacliff, including:
The market for the patented hook, trade-named the Supreme, is large and has wide appeal. Over $300 million (retail level) in fish hooks alone are purchased each year in the United States. The patented Supreme, by virtue of its unique look and user-friendly features, has immense potential in the hands of astute marketers of fishing gear. One of the most powerful marketing tools is a unique selling proposition (USP). A good example is the “Flo-Thru” teabag USP developed by Lipton, or Heinz’ “Slowest Catsup in the West.” Any time that a marketer has a product which is visually different and has user-friendly, unique features, dramatic success can be achieved in capturing market share. In the same way that Lipton’s “Flo-Thru” USP catapulted Lipton to brand leader over Salada Tea, the Supreme could conceivably capture 10% of the hook market. This would translate into royalties for the patent holder of approximately $200,000 to $300,000 annually.
The do-it-yourself kit selling retail for $129.95 has a much narrower market appeal to primarily saltwater fisherman who are especially enthusiastic about catching a category of approximately 20 popular game fish. Nearly five million fishermen hunt these fish. Sales of 25,000 kits over the three year period of this plan is a reasonable estimate, and amounts to only one half of one percent of the number of big-game fishermen. Gross sales of kits could total $1.25 million, assuming manufacturer’s net price of $50 to distributors.
Some statistics drawn from the 1996 Fish and Wildlife Survey are recorded in the table below.
Population | Days Fished | Trips | Money Spent | |
Saltwater Fishermen | 9.4 million | 103 million | 87 million | $8.1 million |
Freshwater Fishermen | 29.7 million | 515 million | 420 million | $24.5 million |
The full potential of the Supreme patented hook can only be reached by licensing it to an established fishing gear company with a professional marketing department and extensive distribution system. This full potential would take into consideration freshwater fishermen (the highest concentration of anglers), and saltwater fishermen. Until a license agreement has been reached with a marketing company, the prime focus must be on sales of the do-it-yourself kits. Because of Seacliff’s saltwater contacts, and the need to limit the initial size of barbs provided in the kits (four large-sized barbs), the market segmentation analysis will be concentrated on that portion of the 9.4 million saltwater fishermen who go after the 20 species of large game fish.
The chart and table below indicate the number of fishermen, engaged by fish type. Saltwater anglers have increased by six percent between 1991-1996. During the same period, freshwater fishing declined by four percent. For purposes of entering a growth percentage, we will assume that the number of saltwater fishermen will increase by about one percent annually.

Fishing is definitely growing in popularity. According to the 1996 Wildlife survey, the number of anglers has been increasing at over twice the rate of U.S. population growth (1955-1996). More than one out of every six Americans goes fishing every year. A total of $38 billion, according to the study, is being spent annually on fishing. Of this amount, 51% ($19.2 billion) is being spent on fishing equipment, and 28% ($5.3 billion) is being spent annually on fishing tackle (includes both freshwater and saltwater fishing tackle).
The 1996 survey, which is the source of most statistics on the fishing industry, reports that the number of saltwater fishermen increased six percent between 1991-1996. During the same period, freshwater fishermen declined four percent. However, expenditures on the sport increased at a much greater rate. Fishing expenditures increased 37%, and the number of days spent fishing increased 22% when compared with the 1991 survey.
Convenience, speed, improved performance, enjoyment are all aspects of the patented Supreme hook, which apply both in speaking about the hook to be licensed as well as to the do-it-yourself kit. See Chapter 3.1 (Product Description) for details of the benefits as well as graphic illustrations.

The fishing gear industry used to be characterized by many small manufacturers. This was especially true of fishing lures, which were often made by individuals who started up in the industry working out of their garages. This situation has changed dramatically. According to an article in the New York Times (October 24, 1999), entitled “Fishing Gear Makers Are Now a Prize Catch,” like toy and hardware makers before them, small manufacturers of fishing gear are being acquired by aggressive competitors looking to build economies of scale. The labor-of-love specialty companies are quickly being bought up. Andy Rogerson, chief executive of Pradco Inc., which now owns eleven popular brands of fishing lures (mostly acquired in the last five years), claims the small guy can’t make it any longer. The big-box sports chains and major marts are driving distribution. These mass market retailers, as well as a small number of equally demanding cataloguers, sell 75% of fishing tackle.
There has been so much consolidation in the industry, it is hard to keep track of who belongs to whom, according to Lauren Walsh, managing editor of Fishing Tackle Retailer. Membership in the industry’s trade organization, the ASA, has declined from 600 members in 1995 to 450 members at present. This decline has been solely due to acquisition, as the number of products has remained level or even increased. Modernization has also hit the fishing gear industry as it has other industries. Large companies, like Pure Fishing, have invested millions in computerized inventory systems and warehouses; they are also tapping the previously-ignored international market.
According to SBG’s exclusive fishing tackle survey conducted in 1992, 69% of tackle is bought through wholesalers, 27% direct from manufacturers, and four percent from other sources. In the eight years since the survey was completed, it is likely that mass merchants and dedicated cataloguers have been taking a greater share of the pie. This would mean that there has been more direct buying from manufacturers.
With cataloguers and mass merchants capturing 75% of sales of fishing gear, it is clear that the small manufacturer is at a disadvantage in respect to large suppliers. Wal-Mart, and other large, multi-line chains, will only purchase from suppliers who can offer a large menu. The trend is for these retailers to purchase directly from manufacturers at the wholesale price, since they do their own distribution. The mass merchants can then afford to discount the item 10-20% and still make a healthy return on investment.
As mentioned in earlier chapters, there are easily 250 manufacturers of fishing tackle. Many of these are makers of lures and artificial bait. The Supreme primarily competes with the old, standard method of hooking bait, either live or dead, to a standard fish hook. The advantages of the Supreme over this old method are more easily understood by turning to section 3.1, which includes graphic displays comparing the Supreme stem hook system to the traditional methods. There exists no other product on the market that competes with, or provides the features of, the Supreme.
**All graphic illustrations have been removed from this sample plan.
According to the membership rolls of the ASA, there are 450 companies that are somehow involved in some aspect of fishing. Many of these are boat manufacturers, and other manufacturers outside of the narrower field of fishing gear. Large retailers are also members.
Industry Participants – Retail As of 1992 there were 20,696 retail outlets in the United States, of which 31% were fishing specialists, 47% were multiline, 12.2% were classed as department or mass merchants, and nine percent other retail. Mail lists are available from Database America (201-476-2300).
Industry Participants – Wholesale Information on U.S. wholesalers such as names, addresses, phone numbers, gross sales, number of employees, and major product lines handled, is available from the Wholesalers and Distributors Directory, which is available at libraries. Chapter 46 lists Recreational and Sporting Goods Wholesalers. Pages 987-1010 list 50 wholesalers who specifically mention the word “fishing tackle.”
Industry Participants – Manufacturers Ward’s Business Directory of U.S. Private and Public Companies, under NAIC code 339920 (Sporting and Athletic Goods Manufacturing) lists 75 names, beginning with Brunswick Corporation of Lake Forest, Illinois, with $4 billion in sales (Brunswick’s Zebco Corporation is a division specializing in fishing gear), and ending with Easton Sports of Van Nuys, California, with $40 million in sales. Much more up-to-date information can be obtained via ASA’s website:www.asafishing.org/membership/locator/index.cfm. Another excellent source is the Fishing Tackle Source Directory which lists at least 250 fishing tackle manufacturers under the saltwater category alone.
5.1 competitive edge.
The Supreme’s stem-hook system is patented (Patent Number 6,042,520, dated May 16, 2000). The product is not available from any other supplier or manufacturer. The features are clearly outlined, and the hook is visually unique as well, making the hook an ideal USP in the hands of a capable marketing specialist. Case studies of other products with well-devised USP’s (having both a unique look and user-friendly features) have shown dramatic success in capturing market share from other brands.
Considering the patented hook is so revolutionary, the initial reactions from fishermen, retailers, and other industry participants have been extremely positive. As time to market is everything, it is important not to wait until a suitable licensee can be chosen. This could take a year or more. The process of subcontracting the necessary elements forming the do-it-yourself kit, will get the hook to market within a few months, and the acceptance of the product in kit form should be a great spur to marketing candidates to consider licensing the hook.
An organized approach will be followed to locate a suitable licensee marketing company. A letter will be sent to licensee candidates. Enclosed in each letter will be a product summary. An exclusive manufacturer will also need to be found. A product summary and letter will be sent to manufacturing candidates. Phone calls will follow up the letters. The ASA Trade Show will also be a good way to attract the interest of licensees.
For the do-it-yourself kits, the distribution will be traditional. Seacliff will sign an agreement with Nautical Marketing of Seaport, Oregon who will represent the kits to wholesalers. Emphasis will be placed on wholesalers and cataloguers in the eight coastal states that make up over seven million of the 9.4 million saltwater anglers. The wholesalers, in turn, will sell to retailers. Pricing has been carefully arranged to insure generous margins for both wholesalers and retailers.
Although the Supreme is suitable for many freshwater applications, the freshwater market is best attacked once the licensee marketing company has been located. Until then, marketing efforts for the Supreme in kit form will be focused on the much narrower market of saltwater fishermen who are especially enthusiastic about hunting for the 20 or so larger-game fish. These fishermen are more likely to read about the Supreme or to hear about it by word-of-mouth than through any other means of advertising.
It is not an easy task to decide on a price for a totally unique, newly-patented item in kit form. However, there is no question that fishermen in the same market category will spend considerable amounts of money on fishing gear kits. Appendix A shows examples of such non-competing kits:
MIT Custom Rigging Kit Includes leader, crimps, chafe tube, strand cable and swages, rigging tape and thimbles. Contains a crimper tool, a snipper and safety knife. As advertised in Melton International Tackle Catalog, it is priced at $225.
Ultimate Rigging Kit: For double rigging riggers. Includes release clips, cork balls, black snubbers with stainless pulleys, nylon line and leader snaps. As advertised in Boater’s World Marine Centers Catalog, it is priced at $129.99.
Big Game Rigging Kits: Includes large press tool, small press tool, 100 sleeves and thimbles of various sizes, monofiliment and stainless cable and three color tapes. All in carrying case with vinyl mesh back and clear front with velcro flaps. As advertised in Boater’s World Marine Centers Catalog, it is priced at $239.99
Pricing Structure The pricing structure follows a retail cost model which is fairly standard in most industries. The manufacturer’s sell price to the distributor is approximately 55% off the retail price.
Retail sell price | $129.95 |
Retailer cost from wholesaler | $77.97 |
Wholesaler cost from Seacliff | $58.48 |
Less terms (2% 10 net 30) | $1.17 |
Less freight (5%) | $2.92 |
Less representative commissions (7.5%) | $4.39 |
Net price to Seacliff | $50.00 |
(See Appendix B for price lists for Distributor (wholesaler) and Dealer (retailer)).
No large budget has been provided for promotional efforts, but we have set aside a small budget for point-of-sale materials. The strategy is to hold off on these expenditures. Once a licensee marketing company has been located, their efforts to market and promote the Supreme will be more than sufficient to get the word out to all fishermen.
The sales strategy is to rely as much as possible on the traditional distribution channel members (wholesalers and retailers) and to minimize the number of direct sales. Seacliff’s forte is more in the direction of formulating ideas worthy of patenting rather than administrative expertise. In addition, Seacliff will engage the services of a manufacturer’s representative to out-source, to every extent possible, sales reliance on Seacliff. Sales invoicing should be in only large quantities, such as a recent order for 250 kits.
Unit Sales of Kits: Marketing research indicates that approximately five million saltwater fishermen hunt for the 20 or so large game fish. These fishermen are especially enthusiastic about the sport, and are relatively easy to reach as they are concentrated in only eight coastal states. We estimate 25,000 kits can be sold over the next three years to this market group alone, which works out to only one half of one percent. We will assume one quarter of these will be sold in the first year, one third in the second year, and the remainder in the third year. We will not attempt to project monthly sales differences, but will assume sales are steady throughout the year.
It is expected that other items will be sold such as replacement barbs for the kits, crimping tools, etc., but these are primarily minor items. They will be ignored in this original business plan, but will probably be included in updates once more exact trend information is available.
Unit Sales Prices
Direct Unit Costs: The direct units costs pertain to the various items that comprise the Proline Kit, the fulfillment costs of assembling the various items into the kit, and the outer carton used to ship the kits to wholesalers, retailers, and/or individual consumers who purchase by mail or over the Internet.
Size | Cost per 1,000 | Cost per Proline Kit |
2.03 cm | $79.00 | $0.79 |
2.28 cm | $83.00 | $0.83 |
2.58 cm | $86.00 | $0.86 |
2.78 cm | $90.00 | $0.90 |
TOTAL | $3.38 cost of barbs per kit |
There is an initial tooling cost of approximately $25,350, which will be included in the pre-production expenses and amortized over the first five years. Allow 10-12 weeks tooling lead time, and two to three weeks lead for orders.
Total Unit Costs: $26.48 per kit
Royalty Income: Royalty income is very difficult to predict because the royalty percentages can range widely. We have chosen three percent which is at the low end of the royalty percentages spectrum. We have assumed that this income will not begin until the second year (2002) of operation. We have estimated a total potential for the U.S. alone of $300,000 annually. We will assume a royalty of $50,000 in 2002 and $75,000 in 2003. This revenue is net of any related costs.

A major milestone is the securing of financing. Borrowing will be necessary either through the Small Business Administration (SBA) or alternative sources. It may be possible to arrange for some of this amount to be financed by the subcontractor of the barbs. The funds need to be committed to by the end of November at the latest.
The next step is to order the materials necessary for making up the kit and to have the kits ready for sale. This will take 45 days, and will begin when financing has been secured.
Joining the ASA is important, as is signing up for the ASA Trade Show in Las Vegas in July. Both of these things can be arranged in December, 2000.
An exclusive manufacturer needs to be located either domestically or internationally before March 2001. This should be an easier task than finding the right marketing company.
A licensee marketing company needs to be found who is willing to commit the resources necessary to mass market the hook. A short list should be found soon, initial contact made, and follow-up phone calls placed. Meetings at the trade show will be indispensible and will prove to be very profitable.

A goal of the company is to sign a licensee agreement with an aggressive marketing company who will take over all aspects of the business of marketing the Supreme. Seacliff will not need an extensive management team to succeed at this. However, until the licensee agreement can be completed, Seacliff management will have to bring the product to market in kit form. Most of the load of management in doing this has been limited by subcontracting the manufacturing to others. The kits will even be assembled by a professional fulfillment company. By relying on the services of a manufacturer’s representative, as well as wholesalers/distributors, Seacliff will further limit the extent of administrative involvement.
The payroll will include a monthly salary for the president in the first year, increasing annually in year two, and year three. In addition, a bookkeeper/office manager will be necessary to enter the accounts into the computer (QuickBooks Pro), and to take orders over the phone, as well as to respond to email inquiries. His or her monthly salary will be established at the time of hiring for the first year of operation, increasing in the second and third years.

The financial plan will require outside sources of funds. It is hoped that this amount can be obtained from the SBA. Seacliff has already succeeded in attracting significant private funding through the sale of common stock. This source of funds is still attractive due to the exciting features of the patent. It is assumed that the necessary funding will be found, and that it will be repaid in the first year.
In the first year of operations, monthly expenses are projected to include interest expenses on initial borrowing. Although some sales will certainly come via Seacliff’s website at close to the suggested retail price of $129.95, for purposes of determining the break-even point we have assumed that all kits will be sold through the full distribution channel (representative, wholesaler, retailer).
The break-even chart shows the number kits needed to be sold each month to cover all variable and fixed costs. If we capitalize start-up costs (see section 2.2, Start-up Summary) and amortize them over five years and then added this to monthly fixed costs the break-even point would increase kits per month sold.

Although there is likely to be sales of replacement items from the kits, such as barbs, epoxy, etc. (see price list in the appendix) these items have been ignored in this business plan for projection purposes. The following table outlines the basic assumptions of Seacliff.
