It will appeal to the college crowd and also younger kidswho like scooters and their Tennessee Volunteers. Located in Knoxville, TN.Competition:There is really only one major competitor which is razor scooters. They are an older company known for making a good value scooter. However, they don’t have the patent for the color of UT as well as for the Power T, which gives us a very big advantage in the collegiate market. However, razor has advantages over us since it is well known throughout the United States.Marketing:We plan on targeting college students as well as Ut vol fans of all ages. All ages, genders and geographic locations apply here due to vol fans being around the nation. “The official transportation of the Tennessee Volunteers”.
