Areas of Investigation 3 .
Summary of Interpretation of Findings 7.
This report researched the feasibility of offering massages on the Long Island Rail Road. Long Island Rail Road massages would be offered to commuters who ride to Penn Station from Long Island or vice versa. Plus these massages would help relax the commuters. If this service is created it is planned to start in mid Fall of 2004.
.
Purpose:.
The purpose of this report is to determine the feasibility of offering massages on the Long Island Railroad to passengers riding from Penn Station to Long Island or vice versa.
Areas of Investigation:.
Of all the areas to investigate the most important one was to find out if there was an interest with the passengers of the Long Island Railroad to receive massages. This is important because if there is no interest there is no proposal.
.
If there was an interest, the next area to investigate would be how much the passengers would be willing to pay. The railroad ticket prices have just increased (www.mta.nyc.ny.com), so I would need to investigate how much more passengers will be willing to pay to receive a massage.
The final area of investigation was to see if there were any massage pallors in Penn Station. This would determine the competition. If there are massage pallor's, I also needed to know how much they charge there clients and if there business is successful. I needed to know this so, when offering the our massages the price could be cheaper. This helped me to determine if offering massages on the Long Island Railroad is feasible by what price to charge the passengers and if they have a lot of customers.
Research Methods:.
The research methods I have used to investigate offering massages on the Long Island Railroad are; a survey, the library, the internet and personal research.
The survey I conducted gave the most important and accurate information. I surveyed twenty people that let me know if there was an interest in offering massages on the Long Island Railroad.
