Presentation Notes
Moving to our WTP choice #3, Brazil as you may know is the size of a continent – roughly the size of all Western Europe – and with as much demographic diversity as Russia, China, and India So we will take a staggered approach, rolling out in 3 waves In Wave 1 we will build the South and Southeastern Regions. The population here is urban, educated, of Western European descent, and the region concentrates more than 60% of BZL’s current GDP. In comparison, it is 2x the size of Thailand, with an economy that is 4x bigger. There are close to 3,000 cities in this region, but we are focusing on the 19 metro-markets that represent the bulk of its economy. Within those, we selected 1 market (São Paulo city) to be our “proof of concept” market, where we test and validate our strategies/plans before expanding. In Wave 2, we expand into the 5 key metro-markets in the Northeast, also known as the “China of Brazil” for its rapid growing economy. The region represents 25% of BZL’s GDP, up from 15% just 5 yrs ago - so, expanding rapidly. In Wave 3, we expand into the 6 key metro-markets of the North and Central West, thereby adding a new market that represents 15% of BZL’s GDP. It is vast and scarcely populated, where most people live in 6 metro markets to which we are expanding. Back-up: Strategic geographies get Competitive Home Delivery timings and costs, BSA support, and Full Field Engagement (KAM, training) Non-strategic markets get basic HD service, no BSA support, no Field Engagement Market expansion rank order: based on economic potential (measured by IPC Indice de Potencial de Consumo) Trigger for expanding into a market: sufficient leadership interest (1-5 Platinums), economic potential (IPC), DS potential (i.e. demographics), resource availability, Trigger for opening an ABC/Shop: 5-10 Platinums, $1M to $2M in sales

Amway – Why Brazil? The People Factor

An enormous Entrepreneurial potential

Source:Amway Global Entrepreneuship Report 2014

However, one of the highest “Entrepreneurial Gaps”:

51% Leadership and management skills (decision making, customer mgmt., leading/motivating employees)

43% Basic functional skills (finance, marketing, IT) 38% Business planning, scenario analysis, competitive analysis And more Brazilians (30%) have sought these skills through training, than the Global average (23%)

…and because key skills are missing:

…because the environment is not favorable:
