Tips for Starting a Satay Business

Before starting any business it is important to have a solid plan to achieve profit targets and ensure smooth operations. The following five tips are suggestions to help you start a successful satay business.  

1. Define Your Target Market for the Satay Business

‍

‍

Firstly, it is important that you determine your potential, targeted market.

For example, if your target market is students or office workers, offer them affordable prices. However, in doing this you need to conduct market-research, and compare prices with other satay businesses in the area. 

‍

2. Define Your Business Concept 

Secondly, the next step is to define your business concept, because the concept you choose should reflect your personal preferences and your vision for the direction of your business.  

For example, if your target is students, consider a traditional satay business model that sells around campus and uses a cart, making it easier for students to access your business, or alternatively, you could sell within the campus environment or in the university’s cafeteria.

Additionally, there are some modern satay businesses that should adopt a restaurant concept other than a cart, however, whichever option you choose, you must remember to consider your target market and the consumers’ tastes.
