STRATEGIC PLAN v1.0 · Aug 2026

Axi Thailand

Actionable Action Plan — B2B2C Market Entry

Structured framework from market intelligence to field execution. Built for Santi, Lucca/Kelvin, and the Thailand team.

Prepared by Guillaume Luccatio · August 2026

Strategic Context

The framing that drives every decision
Key Insight — Bangkok Visit: Existing IBs are low quality, but prospects met are better. Axi has been interacting with the wrong people. The opportunity requires reaching the right partners, not better servicing the wrong ones.

🎯 B2B2C First

~5 top distributors generating $300K–$500K profit MoM. Partner-centric pricing, IB-focused promotion, distributor-level relationship management.

🔄 B2C Pivot (if needed)

Marketing-led acquisition, scaled-down field presence, focus on Axi Mobile App at 3-year horizon.

Decision: Execute B2B2C first. If it delivers → double down. If limited traction → pivot. No ego — the market decides.

Phased Approach

Three phases, each with a clear go/no-go gate

P1: Prepare

Weeks 1–4

  • Market intelligence (P0)
  • Pricing structure finalised
  • Product readiness — demos, journey
  • IB tiering: Grow/Maintain/Fix/Exit

P2: Engage & Close

Weeks 5–9

  • Staggered geo-tours
  • Line outreach → in-person → proposals
  • Pricing feedback & adjustment

P3: Scale or Pivot

Week 10+

  • Attractive → double down B2B2C
  • Unattractive → pivot to B2C
  • No ego — market decides
🚦 Go/No-Go for P2: Enough quality prospects to justify field investment?
🚦 Go/No-Go for P3: B2B2C delivering at $300–500K MoM potential?

P0: Market Intelligence

Partner Health Score (WS4)

BCG-inspired matrix — measures relationship quality, not just satisfaction

🥛 Cash Cow

High Value · Low Engagement
Profitable but under-activated. Upsell training, more RM time.

⭐ Star

High Value · High Engagement
Ideal partner. Protect, personal visits, prime treatment.

🐕 Dog

Low Value · Low Engagement
Fix or Exit. Cut losses or invest only if clear path exists.

❓ Question Mark

Low Value · High Engagement
Wrong pricing? Wrong product fit? Needs diagnosis.

📊 Engagement (0–100)

Meeting frequency 25% · Training attendance 20% · CTA response 25% · 30/60/90-day check-in 15% · Product adoption 15%

💎 Value (0–100)

Gross margin 40% · Volume consistency 25% · Cost to serve 20% · Strategic value 15%

Cadence: Monthly for Tier-1, quarterly for others. Quadrant movement is itself a KPI — Question Mark → Star = win. Maps to Grow/Maintain/Fix/Exit segmentation.

Cross-Cutting KPIs

What gets measured gets managed

📋 Visit Reporting

Report + pictures after every partner visit. Proof of presence.

📞 Call Discipline

Call note after every interaction. Proof of value exchanged.

🎯 Product Mix

✅ Compliance

Reporting completeness. Coaching signal, not punishment.

Management value: WS3 & WS4 design (Week 2) · Field support (Weeks 7–8) · Go/Pivot/Exit recommendation with Santi + Lucca/Kelvin (Week 9).
