Although there are competitors who are competing against us in branding and marketing, our plan is to grow our business in order to reach out to those outside of Houston through our established website. We are striving to have local companies throughout the United States in order to help those in other countries. As our business grows, we will market and advertise in other cities that show interest in our services or in places where our research shows demand for our services.
Company Goals
Modern Eatz is a Houston-based branding and marketing company specializing in helping local restaurants with foreign origins establish their brand here in Houston. We will serve local restaurants and food trucks no matter the origin, and in addition, our focus should be on those small business owners coming from a different country.
Mission Statement
5
Modern Eatz will be part of the competitive digital media industry. We are a branding and marketing service provider that specializes in web design, graphic design, videography, and photography. We will create, plan, and build an identity for a new start up restaurant and food truck business in Houston. These forms of media will help the business have a unique branding message including name, logo, identity, and awareness. With digital media, we’re not only about starting a business, we are about building customer relationships to fulfill our promises of what they can expect from our services that we offer and make their business profitable.
Market Research - Industry

We are exclusively focused on restaurants and food trucks. Since Houston is a culturally diverse city, we can cater to many cultural districts and locations. We will provide opportunities other competitors don’t offer such as magazine sponsorships, free resources that will help them maintain their reputation, and provide articles on tips/advice for local companies.
Product Service Line
Market Research - Advantages
Create a custom branding solution for restaurants and food trucks using digital media services such as digital graphic design, web design, digital photography, and videography. This helps each business create awareness for their brand and helps create profit for their companies. We can determine the need for additional consulting services within our market related to tying improved processes to opportunities for increased sales and promotion to potential customers for the restaurants.
8
Our plan to grow our business would be to reach out to those outside of Houston through our established website. In the future we hope to have local companies throughout the United States and in order to help others in different countries in the future. As our business grows, we will market and advertise in other cities that show interest in our services or where our research shows demand for our services.
We will communicate with our customers through word of mouth, consultations, phone calls, and print materials. We will use social media platforms such as YouTube, Snapchat, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn.

Until digital input can be evaluated by the provider, no claims or promises are made about the provider’s ability to work with jobs submitted in digital format, and no liability is assumed for problems that may arise. Any additional translating, editing, or programming needed to utilize customer-supplied files will be charged at prevailing rates. Alterations/Corrections:Customer alterations include all work performed in addition to the original specifications. All such work will be charged at the provider’s current rates.

Title for finished work passes to the customer upon delivery to the carrier at shipping point, or upon mailing of invoices for the finished work or its segments, whichever occurs first.

There will be no liability or penalty for delays due to state of war, riot, civil disorder, fire, strikes, accidents, action of government or civil authority, acts of God, or other causes beyond the control of the provider. In such cases, schedules will be extended by an amount of time equal to delay incurred. Customer-Furnished Materials:Materials furnished by customers or their suppliers are verified by delivery tickets. The provider bears no responsibility for discrepancies between delivery tickets and actual counts. Customer-supplied paper must be delivered according to specifications furnished by the provider. These specifications will include correct weight, thickness, pick resistance, and other technical requirements. Artwork, film, color separations, special dies, tapes, disks, or other materials furnished by the customer must be usable by the provider without alteration or repair. Items not meeting this requirement will be repaired by the customer, or by the provider at the provider’s current rates.

Claims for defects, damages, or shortages must be made by the customer in writing no later than 10 calendar days after delivery. If no such claim is made, the provider and the customer will understand that the job has been accepted. By accepting the job, the customer acknowledges that the provider’s performance has fully satisfied all terms, conditions, and specifications. The provider’s liability will be limited to the quoted selling price of defective goods, without additional charge for special or consequential damages. As security for payment of any sum due under the terms of an agreement, the provider has the right to hold and place a lien on all customer property in the provider’s possession. This right applies even if credit has been extended, notes have been accepted, trade acceptances have been made, or payment has been guaranteed. If payment is not made, the customer is liable for all collection costs incurred. Liability:Disclaimer of Express Warranties: The provider warrants that the work is as described in the purchase order. The customer understands that all sketches, copy, dummies, and preparatory work shown to the customer are intended only to illustrate the general type and quality of the work. They are not intended to represent the actual work performed.Disclaimer of Implied Warranties: The provider warrants only that the work will conform to the description contained in the purchase order. The provider’s maximum liability, whether by negligence, contract, or otherwise, will not exceed the return of the amount invoiced for the work in dispute. Under no circumstances will the provider be liable for specific, individual, or consequential damages.

Indemnification:The customer agrees to protect the provider from economic loss and any other harmful consequences that could arise in connection with the work. This means that the customer will hold the provider harmless and save, indemnify, and otherwise defend him/her against claims, demands, actions, and proceedings on any and all grounds. This will apply regardless of responsibility for negligence.
Copyrights:The customer warrants that the subject matter to be printed is not copyrighted by a third party. The customer also recognizes that because subject matter does not have to bear a copyright notice in order to be protected by copyright law, absence of such notice does not necessarily assure a right to reproduce. The customer further warrants that no copyright notice has been removed from any material used in preparing the subject matter for reproduction. To support these warranties, the customer agrees to indemnify and hold the provider harmless for all liability, damages, and attorney fees that may be incurred in any legal action connected with copyright infringement involving the work produced or provided.
Personal or economic rights:The customer also warrants that the work does not contain anything that is libelous or scandalous, or anything that threatens anyone’s right to privacy or other personal or economic rights. The customer will, at the customer’s sole expense, promptly and thoroughly defend the provider in all legal actions on these grounds as long as the provider promptly notifies the customer of the legal action and gives the customer reasonable time to undertake and conduct a defense. The provider reserves the right to use his or her sole discretion in refusing to print anything he or she deems illegal, libelous, scandalous, improper, or infringing upon copyright law. Storage:The provider will retain intermediate materials until the related end product has been accepted by the customer. If requested by the customer, intermediate materials will be stored for an additional period for additional charge. The provider is not liable for any loss or damage to stored material beyond what is recoverable by the provider’s fire and extended insurance coverage. Taxes:All amounts due for taxes and assessments will be added to the customer’s invoice and are the responsibility of the customer. No tax exemption will be granted unless the customer’s “Exemption Certificate” (or other official proof of exemption) accompanies the purchase order. If, after the customer has paid the invoice, it is determined that more tax is due, then the customer must promptly remit the required taxes to the taxing authority, or immediately reimburse the provider for any additional taxes paid. Telecommunications:Unless otherwise agreed, the customer will pay for all transmission charges. The provider is not responsible for any errors, omissions, or extra costs resulting from faults in the transmission.
