Economic Analysis
The standard industry code is 70-89 because the business operates in the service
industry. The Tarleton Small Business Development Center has its economic analysis as
follows. The suppliers of the Tarleton Small Business Development Center include the
federal governments, Universities, and the general public. The bargaining power of suppliers
is relatively low because the center has a more significant number of suppliers, and the
company can, therefore, avoid those suppliers who bargain to exploit the company.
Similarly, the existing rivalries from the competing firms are minimum because the
company receives funds from both the federal governments and the state of Texas. These
funds assure some protection to the organization to ensure they compete favorably. As for the
Mergerson 2
customers, they have relatively lower bargaining power because the services are subsidized.
The customers only pay for a small fee, which gives them little bargaining power. The threats
of new entrants, on the other hand, are high because the Business development centers
operate in a proliferating industry. Lastly, the threats posed by substitute products are
relatively high because the emerging technologies and trends are having a go at the service
industry at an alarming rate.
Competitor Analysis
The Tarleton Small Business Development Centre has two main competitors, namely:
i.
The North Texas Small Business Development Center (http://ntsbdc.org/)
–
The North Texas Small Business Development Center is a competitor for my client
because they both are in the same industry and offer the same services (tax
information, business plan assistance, marketing plans, research services, and
seminars among others)
–
The North Texas Small Business Development Center appears to do marketing better
than my client. The North Texas Small Business Development Center has several
customers and more active social media pages compared to my client, and this makes
marketing effortless.
–
However, it appears that the North Texas Small Business Development Center does
customer relations management worse than my client. This is worse because customer
relations management enhances their satisfaction.
ii.
The University of Houston Texas Gulf Coast SBDC Network Website at
https://www.sbdc.uh.edu/sbdc/default.asp
–
The University of Houston Texas Gulf Coast SBDC Network is a competitor for my
client because they both are in the same industry and offer the same services (tax

information, business plan assistance, marketing plans, research services, and
seminars among others)
–
One thing that the University of Houston Texas Gulf Coast SBDC Network appears to
uses technology better than my client. Most of their services are integrated into the
latest technologies, such as cloud computing and Data Science.
–
However, the University of Houston Texas Gulf Coast SBDC Network does
marketing worse than my client. This is worse because marketing is directly
proportional to sales hence income.
