Marketing Strategy - Global

Chronos Works is an app that operates as a pre-crm planning system for sales teams and sales managers. We know that CRM's are good at tracking progress, but poor at planning and forecasting. Chronos Works uses old school basic planning concepts delivered in a modern application . Using Chronos Works allows sales teams to clearly define the best sales targets. We are a team of 5 people and our program is close to commercialization. Two of our team are development and AI/ML specialists and they are integrating smart science into the program so that our data will be valid and usable. We would now like to understand what might be our best approach to entering and penetrating the global market. The key sponsors of this project are a 40 year veteran of sales and marketing and a 20 year project management specialist. Our locations are Calgary Canada, London UK and Dubai UAE.

Retail franchise project post COVID19 strategy

W are working on a model for a health and wellness franchise… it would be a retail style kiosk (about 400 square feet) that would be placed in serviced (already available restrooms, security, etc) high traffic locations such as malls, downtown towers, large work places, transportation centers, tourist spots and other high traffic areas. Locations would be turn-key and follow the typical franchise strategy of having owner operators, with corporate oversight, branded products and services, corporate distribution of retail products, etc. Having successfully completed a market assessment, we are now looking to develop a business template including a marketing plan, effective franchise model and other key "next step" items. Project leads are Matt Clachar and Chuck Bean.

Chronos Works Inc. pre-CRM sales territory planning and management app.

Presently, CRM’s are primarily used for tracking activities, but lack a comprehensive planning component. Our system has been used for 20 years in a pens and paper/workshop format, which we are converting into a software application. We are a Calgary based Canadian Corporation start-up with founders in Calgary, London UK and Dubia. We have 15,000 lines of code completed on a business application and are looking to gain assistance as we continue to add features. Our statement is as follows: "Chronos Works is a multi-page web app following the MVC pattern, built on a PostgreSQL database, using node as the back end language with the express framework. Interactions with the database are performed by utilising Sequelize, an ORM that allows us to focus on writing pure Javascript leveraging next gen (ES6+) features. We use next gen features heavily, including the use of Promises, object destructuring, spread operators and arrow functions. On the front end we use Bootstrap for styling, generate and serve HTML dynamically from the server using ejs, and invoke back end functions, where necessary, via the Fetch API. Our version control is handled using git and GitHub." We are currently building our list of additional features and students will be working with a world class Dev Opps Director located in the UK, whose qualifications include a doctorate Theoretical Physics and an Astrophysics Degree. Additional mentorship is available from all founders who have extensive backgrounds in strategy, project management and app design. If this resonates with you, please shoot me a note and I can arrange a time for you and our CTO to discuss. Many thanks and cheers, Chuck

Locations would be turn-key and follow the typical franchise strategy of having owner operators, with corporate oversight, branded products and services, corporate distribution of retail products, etc. What we are wanting to do is: establish market potential define market acceptance understand the current competitive landscape which is highly fractured and early stage at the moment gauge interest with potential franchisee targets (which are very specific) grasp pricing ranges for services and likely a few other items. This would an absolute start-up… we have a concept that we are wanting to explore.
