S.W.O.T Analysis for Thought Bubble
Strengths:
- Creates a great environment for comic lovers to meet the artists behind the comics (and get signed copies)
- Opportunity to sell work, hand out business cards for professionals and budding practitioners (networking)
- Panel discussions
- Gives access to a wider audience for your work - not just peers/fellow pursuers of your discipline
- Takes place over numerous days so more accessible to people who could have potentially missed it
- Relatively cheap entry
Weaknesses:
- The space can get quite cramped due to heavy footfall
Opportunities:
- Local/near city centre and bus station - makes it easily accessible
- Lots of different practitioners - students, professionals, hobbyists
- Lots of different approaches to comics
Threats:
- Well established/been running for 8 years
- Will have a much larger budget than our proposal
- Connections with many more professionals
- Good media coverage
