Telecommunications Business Plan


Telecommunications Business Plan


The telecommunications revolution is upon us: Personal communication and unified messaging systems have been at the forefront of this technological breakthrough. From 1984’s deregulation of long and local telephone service, the competition has increased and sought every nook or corner of telecom products for both consumers (and businesses). From that day only 15 years ago, when consumers were tied to a fixed phone with its fixed phone number, mobile and cellular phones have proliferated to meet the demand for communication anytime, anywhere in the world. Companies that do not anticipate change or keep up are quickly consigned to financial and technological death – Iridium being the latest example. Quality, depth and speed of execution have replaced financial muscle as the ultimate arbiter of the market. AT&T finally realized this and brought in a technology-savvy CEO who could pull the trigger on needed change; Iridium did not and paid the price.

TeleSpace has the potential to become the market leader on personal communications and unified messaging. Because they have access to telecommunications mobility via multiple phone and/or fax numbers and pagers as well email addresses, the consumers are now looking for simplicity in their lives. They need MyLine.

MyLine, an operating system, has been in existence for more than five year and has a small but loyal customer base. The technology is simple, elegant, and easy to maintain. The system includes a variety of features, some essential, others not. MyLine is not as popular because it was designed and advertised like a pocket knife. It was twice the weight it should have and came with instructions. Consumers knew they were in trouble before they even used the product.

MyLine is able to provide this information because of its internal market research. There are five primary target markets, three of which will be discussed below, starting with the businessman and consumer who just wants to get phone calls no matter where: In the office, in a car, in a plane, playing golf, wherever. If the customer is on earth, MyLine will find him/her. You can also reach the Soccer/Sports mom via our 800 MyLine toll-free number. It’s also a very popular market for military personnel, both personal and professional. They expect reliable, confidential, mobile communications. MyLine can help them enlist.

The global telecommunications market is enormous, with a value of well over $200 billion. It is difficult at this stage to quantify the sub-industry personal communications/unified messaging, with its hundreds and millions of actual/potential consumers. Management projects that the industry will generate sales of approximately $40 million over the next three years, and that the monthly sales rate of $5,000,000 per month would be less than one percent of its market share. The market leader would require a 5- to 10-percent market share. Management plans to achieve this within five years.

1.1 Objectives

TeleSpace’s primary corporate objectives are:

  • To become the market leader in personal communications and unified messaging products and services within five years.
  • To be the lowest cost provider and promote aggressive pricing in the industry.
  • To have the best, most responsive customer service through Year 1

1.2 Mission

MyLine is already the most technologically-superior personal communications system in the world. TeleSpace management plans to capitalize on MyLine’s brand, technical reputation, and become the market leader within personal and business communication systems and unified message systems within five year.

Success Keys 1.3

TeleSpace’s success is dependent on three key factors:

  1. Marketing must generate enough sales volume to support an aggressive pricing model, while still reaching planned profitability projections.
  2. Private label MyLine must be promoted through their distribution channels by strategic partners.
  3. Equity capital must be secured at a reasonable valuation.

Music Theater Business Plan


Music Theater Business Plan


Family Fair, Incorporated is looking to purchase the Market Plaza Theater, operate it as a &#8220/Market Plaza Showplace, and host live performances in the Market Plaza community of Trinity, Texas. Family Fair plans to restore the historic landmark, which is situated amongst the Market Plaza Business Center’s many shops and restaurants. The area is currently without any such operation. There are no bars or clubs that offer live entertainment.

The Showplace promises to provide quality, wholesome and affordable live entertainment in an elegant, clean and charming setting. The Showplace will provide family-friendly entertainment for those who otherwise would have to travel to other cities.

The operation will provide immediate cash flow and a high return to its shareholders. The revenue projections are conservatively based on two regular shows per semaine and a minimum number of special events. Special artist showcases, weekday ‘#8220’ Branson, Missouri productions or holiday season special presentations are not included in the revenue projections. Other than the revenue generated from regular showcases and private events, the facility will be advertised to large companies for special corporate events. Additional revenue-generating operations such as audio and/or video recording, sponsored broadcasts and eventual syndication will be available in the future.

Family Fair’s executive management team has the experience and commitment required to make the venture a huge success. The venue will soon be a entertainment “hot spot” in Southwest, and it will have national exposure. Additional financial information is available in the appendix.

1.1 Mission

Family Fair, Inc. produces high quality, affordable entertainment in the elegant Market Plaza Showplace. It brings family-oriented live entertainment in a private function facility accessible to those who would otherwise travel out of the community to enjoy similar activities. It generates cash immediately and makes a great profit. It offers performers and employees a glamorous and fulfilling work environment, as well as a return that is exceptional for its owners.

1.2 Objectives

  1. To officially open the venue with a well-publicized Grand Opening event.
  2. To generate a healthy net income in the first year.
  3. To double gross sale in the second years of operation.

Child Care Business Plan


Child Care Business Plan


Opportunity

Problem

The education of our children must be started earlier. The school system in general is failing. Individual tutors and private teachers should be hired by those who are able to provide support for their children’s education.

Solution

The Toddler Warehouse offers full-service child and developmental services for toddlers aged three to five years old. The Toddler Warehouse focuses on professional parents who earn double income. These highly ambitious parents are usually keen to see their children succeed and will spend a lot to get the best facilities for their children.

Market

The Toddler Warehouse is offering child development and care for toddlers between the ages of three and five. The Toddler Warehouse will target professional families earning double income who don’t have the time or the ability to care for their child. The Toddler Warehouse is looking for families who are willing to pay more than just baby-sitting. They would like their children to participate in programs that develop many skills such as socialization, math, art, and large muscle group exercises. Professional parents who are driven by their children are more likely to be willing to pay the highest quality development services.

Competition

The Toddler Warehouse is a competitor in the child-care industry. The child care industry is very broad and populated. Companies at all levels of the market are available, from basic baby-sitter services to those that compete with The Toddler Warehouse. There are both services that provide standard business hours and those that offer evening or night hours. There are regular services and no reservations drop off. A lot of parental choices are based on quality, price and gut feeling. The Toddler Warehouse believes that success lies in concentrating on a certain market and choosing a segment of the market which is growing.

Why Us?

The Toddler Warehouse’s mission is to provide high-quality child care. We are here to retain and attract customers. When we adhere to this maxim, everything else will fall into place. Our services will surpass the expectations of customers.

Expectations

Forecast

The first year will be profitable. After year 3, we will be able employ more general help that focuses on the care aspect of care.

Personnel Management Business Plan


Personnel Management Business Plan


OutReSources, Inc. will be a consulting company specializing in the design and delivery of training products and services in statewide and regional markets. The company offers health care providers a reliable, high-quality alternative to in-house resources for business development, market development, training, and quality assurance.

OutResources, a Greenstate DBA Company, will initially be set up under the umbrella Flowstone, Inc., and will be based in Greenstate’s Central County, which is home to the majority of Greenstate’s population, growth, and development.

OutReSources plans on targeting health care service providers within the state and tailoring its services to meet their needs. OutResources’#8217 will face the challenge of establishing itself as a real training and consulting company. This position is relatively risk-free.

There are several types of industry competition. Most significant is the choice by companies and agencies to conduct business development and training internally rather than outsourcing. There are also state and independent agencies that offer training and development. These companies tend to be generalists and don’t focus on any particular market. A flawed organizational structure often hinders these companies. This means that they don’t have the most qualified people to handle client projects. OutReSources has an advantage over other companies because it offers high-quality consulting that integrates theory and practice to support the clients’ goals.

OutReSources will cost at the highest possible price the market will bear. The pricing will fit with the general positioning of OutReSources as providing high-level expertise. The first year is expected to see substantial sales and a healthy cash balance.

The company’s founders were all previously employed health care providers in the fee-for service markets that we intend to target. OutReSources was established by them to formalize the existing consulting services they provide. OutReSources is managed by working partners, a structure largely derived from Flowstone, Inc. In the beginning, three partners are assumed: Khallie Lovecharnold (from Flowstone Inc.), Soren Aboukir (from Flowstone Inc.), Yuriatin Guadalquivir.

The firm anticipates healthy profits the first-year with a commensurately large net profit margin. The company anticipates no cash flow problems.

1.1 Objectives

OutResources set several goals in the first year.

  1. A training service is developed and implemented that targets both private and public health care providers, who offer fee-for–services. It must be compliant with state and federal regulations.
  2. By developing a service that supports those providers still operating within the Medicaid ‘fee-for -service’ framework, we can raise the quality of care and break free from the limitations of Medicaid’s #8220 fee-for-service.
  3. In order to maximize your net profit margins you need a company that has low overhead and is not liable.

1.2 Mission

Our mission is to raise the standards of health care services by improving the skills, abilities, and efficiencies of those who provide such services. We aim to train and educate those who provide healthcare services, and are reimbursed by and regulated under the state governing bodies. We aim to be transitional educators and trainers to those with the education but without the experience.

1.3 Keys to Success

Quality Credibility

Training trainers in the relevant disciplines who are qualified

  • Credentials: Education. Licenses. Certifications
  • Proven successful track record
  • Continuing Education units

Strong Formal Approach

For all services, developing strong formalized training methods

  • Policy and Procedures

  • Confidentiality management
  • Feedback Reporting: Final Product


Promotional and Marketing

  • Start with what you know: Our first offerings are built on our expertise

  • We want to reach a large audience: Expanding our services
  • Spring boarding off current credentials

    • Operation and Liability

    • Strong investments in quality equipment vs cost by including
      • Mobility vs. center or combinations
      • Space and supplies
      • Finished products (manuals, pamphlets, protocols)

    Administrative Service Business Plan


    Administrative Service Business Plan


    Everywhere Assistant, a start-up virtual assistant business, is now available. Sadie Clark, the founder and sole worker of the company, is the sole proprietor. The company was started and will provide services to a diverse geographical segment of customers.

    The Market

    Everywhere Assistant identified three market segments that will be targeted. Companies of different sizes make up the first segment. It is common to see large-scale corporate downsizing during the current business climate. This is helpful for Everywhere Assistant because the downsizing means that people kept within the company are busier than ever. It is not uncommon for downsizing to result in the outsourcing of jobs/projects that the current staff cannot manage. Everywhere Assistant believes that companies will account for the bulk of their sales, relative to other customer segments.

    Individuals make up the second segment. This is a very appealing segment as we all have less time in our day. The virtual assistant (VA), can be a way to free up time or not have to perform tasks that we do not like. The services offered to individuals are expected to be less tedious than those provided to businesses.

    Last, but not least, are not-for-profit organizations. These organizations, due to their status not for profit, do not have excess capital. Therefore, they strive to maximize employee responsibilities and tasks. This means most employees are quite busy. Organizations don’t have employees that can handle random tasks. VA&#8217’s are well-equipped to take over tasks quickly and smoothly. This saves money for companies as they pay only for the labor to complete the task.

    Services

    Everywhere Assistant offers many services. The bulk of the services are administrative. They include data entry, mailing list update, and more. These will be the services that are billed at the lowest end of the range of $25-$45. Services that are billed out near the top of the range are those that require higher levels of skills such as accounting, marketing, and graphic design. Services such as concierge services or travel arrangements will fall in the middle. These services are a broad range of services. The customer will not be able to do the services or may not have the time.

    Competitive Edge

    Most VA services are of a secretarial nature. They are jobs that an administrative assistant can handle. Everywhere Assistant will use their wide range of skills to maximize their competitive advantage. Everywhere Assistant can offer clients more technical skills than the mundane tasks. For example, Everywhere Assistant can use PageMaker and Photoshop to create graphic designs and also have a strong marketing and research background. This is a competitive edge because once a client has found a VA they have an economic incentive to continue to use them as opposed to finding someone else (assuming that they are happy with the level of service and the work product). Clients who are happy with the VA’s work but need assistance on a specific project require the VA to find a solution. The VA (Everywhere assistant) should have a greater range of skills so they can offer more value to the client.

    Everywhere Assistant, which is a virtual assistant business model, offers a wide range customer services remotely using the internet. This business model is extremely efficient. It will provide Sadie with a steady income and allow her to choose when and how to work. According to the forecast, revenues will rise for year 2 and 3, with corresponding net profits increases.

    1.1 Keys to Success

    • Offer a wide range of services allowing Everywhere Assistant to handle any type of task.
    • It is possible to complete last-minute tasks if you have a flexible schedule.
    • Accurate billing and project estimates are essential.

    1.2 Mission

    Everywhere Assistant is committed to providing the highest quality administrative assistant services, even from remote locations. Everywhere Assistant will be able to handle a wide range of tasks with a level of professionalism and trust that is hard to come by in today’s world. Everywhere Assistant will meet or exceed the customer’s expectations.

    1.3 Objectives

    • To earn more than $35,000 in the first 12 months.
    • To earn enough money to keep the job as a full-time position.
    • Because there are sufficient word of mouth opportunities to stay busy, it is possible to lower marketing expenses.

    Investment Consulting Business Plan


    Our firm’s hallmark investment product will be the Vista Total Market Equity strategy and will be initially offered through a mutual fund that is registered by the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission (SEC). Technological advances also allow for economically viable distribution channels such as separate managed portfolios for large accounts. This plan also contains details about our investment products.

    Soap Manufacturer Business Plan


    Soap Manufacturer Business Plan


    SAFEassure, LLC, created a new product that allows managers to quickly and easily monitor employee hand washing. Hand washing is the best preventative measure to fight communicable diseases.

    Hand washing can lead to over 130,000 deaths annually in the U.S., with the transmission of communicable illnesses in day cares, hospitals and restaurants. It is more than AIDS and breast Cancer combined. Studies have shown that proper handwashing in these settings could reduce spread of disease by up 75%. This problem is mainly due to the inability of supervisors to supervise and manage employee handwashing. Existing products offer no effective or affordable solutions for enforcing and ensuring hand washing compliance. The direct cost of treating preventable diseases in America is more than $95 billion each year. (www.webmd.com)

    SAFEassure, LLC, the first producer, has proven that soap can be used to wash hands. Our soap’s unique dye remains on your hands after washing and fades to your skin’s natural color within six minutes. Supervisors will be able quickly to determine if hand washing was performed. This product is unique in that it offers such high standards of sanitation compliance. The product is safe and meets all current FDA regulatory requirements for soap.

    The Market

    Even though hospitals and restaurants are huge markets for products like ours, the best target market is day cares. Day cares are an ideal market because they have a vested interest in reducing disease transfer amongst children, and have adamant support from their clients [parents] to create as clean an environment as possible. Family Practice News states that day care centers can be sophisticated germ factories. They can exchange bacteria and viruses by simply shaking hands or sharing toys. And many of those nasty bugs travel home where they can infect the rest of the family.”

    (http://www.healthcentral.com/drdean/deanfulltexttopics.cfm?id=15538)

    The Company

    SAFEassure, LLC features a strong foundation team and an experienced board. Jack Soap is our primary advisor and has twenty years of industry experience. He also has a network of relationships that will help accelerate the product’s market penetration. SAFEassure, LLC is outsourcing the production of its soaps and other products to an established soap manufacturer. To penetrate the market, the executive team will initially target the Portland Metro Area and then the greater Northwest. They will use direct sales and existing distributor channels. Initial capital will go towards the development, testing, approval, production, marketing, and selling SAFEassure. Working capital will also be provided for the first one year.

    SAFEassure, LLC, follows three specific strategies to achieve our desired growth.

    • Profit from the first-mover advantage and offer a differentiated product in a fragmented market.
    • We will create a strong branding campaign that increases awareness, positive perception, sales and understanding of our products in target markets.
    • Continue to develop products that meet the ever-growing needs of our customers.

    Based on financial projections, SAFEassure, LLC requires $250,000 to start up capital. However, it will produce positive cash flow in October, year 1. The company will generate $850,000 in sales and a substantial net profit by the end of year 3. SAFEassure, LLC offers investors a company with substantial growth potential, cushioned by revenue generating stability.

    Mission

    Our goal is to increase the value of our customers and shareholders through continuous improvement in health and prevention of preventable diseases by using our soap.

    Keys to Success

    • A first-mover branding campaign to build awareness of SAFEassure’s products as the standard for ensuring hand washing compliance.
    • Patent protection to defend our time-sensitive dye and product concept from competitors.
    • Partnering with organizations who are interested in increasing handwashing compliance is possible.

    Objectives

    • Design a prototype complete that meets the regulatory standards.
    • Become the specialty soap of choice for day cares across the Northwest by December Year 2.
    • Achieve sales of $5 million by the end of Year 6.
