Market Analysis 1 Market Analysis Arlington Virginia has estimated population of 230, 050 people according to the 2010 census report, indicating growth rate of 0.94%. The reason why I chose Arlington for my business venture of opening a fitness center is because according to research the area has 17.50% of its population affected with obesity, a10.10% adult smoking rate and 18.70% excessive drinking rate, hence this area has people living with many lifestyle issues within the society (Areavibes.com, 2018). Demographics According to (Areavibes.com, 2018), Arlington has a total population of 207,627. Of this population, 15% of the population is whites, 9% hispanic, 8% African American and 5% other races. The percentage of male population in the area is 51%, with 2,300 of the male aged 12-18 years. Women make up 41% of the population, and 4000 of the female population is made up of teenagers aged 12-18. Also it is important to note that Arlington has over 65% of its people married with kids while 35% are single (Smith and Cody, 2013). This information on family is important when understanding demographics of Arlington in order to know the family trends in this town. The level of education in this region is 90% as the area record a total of 94% of people aged 12 to 24 as high school graduates (Bestplaces.net, 2018). For example areas such as Falls Church have a higher rating of 98% of its teenagers to have graduated from high school. Being one of the most populated areas Arlington Virginia recorded an unemployment rate of Market Analysis 2 3.90%, job growth 1.12% and future growth was predicted to be 38.34% as of the year 2017. As a result the area record household income of $53,055 monthly and median per capita of $25,236. All this statistics are important in starting my finesses club as they help in predicting the expected number of people and also estimate the target group. Also the financial information of the people in this area is important as it enables easy formulation of the gym fee and membership fees. Health issues: This paper proposes two major health issues that youths in Arlington face with the aim of establishing a suitable environment in which such individuals can be helped in reconstructing their lifestyle into a healthy lifestyle. One major issue is obesity among adolescents. From research done by Gallup-Healthways Well-being index which is responsible for tracking obesity levels in America, the findings indicated that Arlington County has increasing levels of adolescents with obesity 17.50% in 2015 due to the fact that almost 15% of the adolescents are very inactive (Chang, 2010). The same research also indicated that 13.90% adolescents, 13.90% smoke Marijuana or Tobacco which is a threat to their health. By having a fitness center which provides both group and individual personal training to the obese adolescents, this will provide an avenue in which many can join the gym and start training to boost their fitness level as well as their health. Also the percentage of adolescents who are struggling with smoking in this region can join the fitness center, where they learn to be active and learn various nutritional plans and adjustments of their lifestyle. Estimated number of customers/members: Market Analysis 3 Adolescent obesity has been a threat that many countries try to fight today. with the increased awareness on readjusting our lifestyles in order to be able to avoid obesity and other lifestyle related illnesses it has been a common routine to meet many young adults early in the morning running around the pavements. If this fitness center will be located at Arlington city, I estimate a turnaround of at least 100 regular clients every day. Hence this may lead to a total of around 400 clients on a monthly basis both regular and those who come on and off. This numbers are estimated based on the fact that many teenagers want to look good and watch their weight, as a result an introduction of anew gym in the area will most definitely attract many young people into the gym making this project viable as the benefits will be higher than the cost of starting the gym. Establish customer/membership fees and special packages: In order to ensure effective running of the gym, members of these gym will have two types of customers those who come in any day for example once a week, this group will be paying $20 per day for the services offered to them on that day and the second group is the regular members. This are those individuals that will be coming into the gym on a monthly basis and the payment for one full month will be $100. The members who come on a monthly basis will have three membership categories to choose from; first is the monthly package that goes for $100, then there will be the quarterly package of payment which will be $250 and the annual package which will be set at $700 annually ("Fitness Center Membership Fees", 2018). Also in addition to the monthly, quarterly and annual membership, the gym will also provide clients with another package that is suitable for family whereby if a person enrolls at least three of their family members they will pay a monthly fee of $ 250 saving $50 every month, $500 Market Analysis quarterly and $1800 for three family members per year ("Fitness Center Membership Fees", 2018). 4 5 Market Analysis References Areavibes.com.

Arlington’s Fitness Center
Arlington’s Fitness Center is taking center stage in ensuring that people are healthy and have
maintained manageable weight with strong muscles to perform daily duties.

Advertising Methods
Newspapers
Newspapers are termed to be traditional ways of passing information and making
advertisements. A decade ago most people were making newspapers purchase every day and
organizations do buy newspapers for the staff to get updated with trending issues. Apart from
getting information about politics and business, people’s health in the current era has developed
complications due to the eating habits. People with white color jobs consume fast foods due to ac
of enough time to prepare meals and having much money at their disposal to pay for almost
everything to make their lives easier. On the classifieds section of the newspapers, I will include
a section to advertise Arlington’s Fitness Center and include contacts and the lowest subscription
a person can be subscribed. The population of 230,050 people living in Arlington, I presume that
at least a quarter of the population will get access to newspapers and pass the word about the
fitness center due to the services offered and reasonable charges (Editors of Salem Press, 2017).
According to recent research, the youths in Arlington are undergoing through the challenge of
obesity. Such fats will be burn by the vigorous exercises offered at Arlington Fitness Center and
help to get back the nice shapes of the youths who are bursting out due to feeding on junk and
fast foods. The cost of advertising on newspapers will be a bit expensive but the target people
will be those in white color jobs who will subscribe and make an estimate cost of $150 per year
will be spent on adverting through newspapers.

Newspaper Advertisement Sample
Upon a visit to many doctors within Arlington, they have advised on the kind of exercises to
offer to the people as most of them are suffering from too much weight gain and joints paid due
to too much relaxation and enjoying comfort zones. Most people use cars to move around even
when they are going for short distances. Without stopping using cars, people can have a
scheduled exercise on regular basis to help them keep fit and stay strong. Welcome to
Arlington’s Fitness Center and you will feel the difference as you receive a guide to your
physical fitness.

Social Media
Social media is a major platform where people of all ages are crowded to get information
and share life experiences. The world is driven by technology and everyone who has access to
the Internet manages to have an active account on one of more of the social sites. The social sites
offer an opportunity of creating pages that can be used to advertise businesses and other services
provided. Through the creation of such pages, I will ensure that Arlington’s Fitness Center has a
page on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to help pass information fast. Apart from passing
information about the existence of the fitness center, the page descriptions will highlight the
benefits of joining the Arlington’s Fitness Center and the advantage of...
