Questionnaire We have gathered information online, went through a huge series of thought processes on our customer’s wants and needs, and have came up with a questionnaire. We have interviewed 20 students within our school campus and have came up with a conclusion that a vast majority of the interviewed students considered that the quality was the biggest concern they had when buying food.
Site Visits We have made a site visit at the location, as well as researched online the how big the area is for our business, and have designed a floor plan for our business to run.
Floor Planning The property has a 200 sq ft with a usable area of a 100 sq ft. All information was gathered on site and online by the property agent. Thought thoroughly & specifically. Easy for customers.
Floor Planning
Financial Data All information and data was gathered online & based on our speculations on how to sustain our business. Rent -$18000 Expenses (entertainment, utilities, postage, stationery) -$4000~5000 Stock Estimated Revenue +$30000~35000 Workers Shared
Conclusion Hard to develop a business mindset – entrepreneur, skills? Lots of calculations to estimate and predict. Satisfy \ control our customers, how to attract & make earnings. Location of area – crowded area? Busy hours? Floor planning – Convenient for workers / customers? Easy to handle?
Reflection Overall thoughts on “Starting a Business” – Hard? Easy? Data collection & accounting management – How to handle? Hardest struggle? – Which factor? Capable of running a solid business? – Would we be successful?
