Male Brazilian Wax

This innovation initially came to life when…

…there was a call from the male population for better personal care, but there was no one advertising the fact that they would do the male Brazilian wax. Enter Ouch Waxing Studio. We openly advertise that if you have hair there we will wax it with no embarrassment. This led to many men getting their private parts waxed, some for comfort, some for the sports they participated in, some just to make it look bigger.

WHAT & HOW

The purpose of this innovation is to…

Before Ouch was in the marketplace, men who wanted to get the Brazilian wax would have to head down a back alley for a wax. Ouch takes the giggle out of this kind of treatment, making it accessible.

It does this by…

Clearly advertising that Ouch specialises in Brazilian waxing for both men and women. Welcoming all that call with questions and by making this treatment as quick and pain-free as possible.

PURPOSE & BENEFITS

This innovation improves on what came before because…

There has not been a male Brazilian waxing studio on the High Street or in the mainstream before. By making this kind of treatment mainstream, people will start to except that metrosexual grooming is a valid industry.

Its various benefits to the customer/end-user include…

Having a award-winning studio take care of all your waxing needs. It would also be my hope that I could train waxers in the art form that is the Brazilian wax.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

In the past, this problem was solved by…

In the past the Brazilian wax was something deemed for the most risqué of men but now it is something that the tradies, soccer dads and athletes are all doing. My innovation makes it more assessable to these people.

Its predecessors/competitors include…

Home waxing kits which can be like waxing with masking tape or a trip to the seedy part of town where some unqualified person does their best…no thanks.

TARGET MARKET

It is made for…

Target market is all men from 18 to 80 who wish to be groomed in that area.

DISTRIBUTION STRATEGY

It is available for sale through…

Ouch Waxing Studio Pty Ltd

Our marketing strategy is to…

Make male Brazilian wax mainstream.

    A good client asked for a unique team-building program that would enhance the team’s ability to think creatively, collaborate towards a result that created a legacy, embedded the team’s purpose and values and led to a deep level of understanding between team members. I combined my corporate team-building experience with my songwriting and recording capability and designed the team song experience.

  • Indie Hub (SMART 100)

    We were writing a news article on an indie game developer and noticed that their official website was a total mess. It had very limited pictures and no videos, and provided no effective ways to communicate with its existing and potential customers. Having browsed around in the iTunes marketplace we discovered a similar problem shared by many indie game developers: one- or two-man teams spend all of their energy on making a kick-ass game, and they don’t have the resource to build an awesome website to showcase the game. This inspired us to develop the Indie Hub.

  • Bookzkeeper (SMART 100)

    My professional background as an accountant collided with small business ownership when I bought a surf shop. I knew I needed to get my tax completed just like any small business owner, so I took my “folder” to my tax accountant. He was gobsmacked by how organised my tax information was. I was also developing my own clientele as an accountant, and clients’ tax accountants commented on how easy it was to complete their tax returns as all the information was at hand, so I researched producing a commercial version of the system I was using for myself and clients.
