ENW 300. Business Plan Memorandum Three.
TOPICS:
Your Product (or Service)
Your Management
Your Specific Physical Location (The space you'll use)
Your Equipment
Licenses and Permits
Your third business plan memorandum will cover the topics list above, factual content that when combined with the marketing memorandum you’ve just handed in will make up your final document. There will be more posted on this memorandum in the next few days, but this overview will help you get an idea of what is expected. Check the timetable posted daily for deadlines for this and other business plan papers.
Products, Services
You’ll first need to tell readers in as much detail as possible just what you’re offering as far as products or services go. This can be a summary, but it will need to be rather specific nonetheless. If you’re researching a restaurant, you’ll want to give readers a menu of the foods you plan to offer, a description of their main ingredients and their price. If you’re offering a service – say a bookkeeping company – you’ll need to specify the types of services and include a description of what you or your cohorts will provide and do. Again, you’ll want to give readers an idea of the prices you’ll charge for your service or product.
Research ideas: When it comes to products and services, it’s a very good idea to look into what your competitors are doing. While you should by no means copy something online or from a pamphlet, you’re certainly allowed to look over other sources to gather ideas – both as far as descriptions, pricing and even organization go. Keep the class rules of plagiarism in mind: You are to put whatever text you produce in your own words. Hint: The more original detail you include, the better and more thorough it will be and the more likely will resemble no other around.
Management
Who is going to run your company? Well, the assumption here is that youwill. In other words, look at this as yet another opportunity to revisit both your personal statement and resume. Mind you, it’s entirely possible that you will want to write additional text on a partner or cohort. For details, read on.
You’ll want to tackle two things in this section. First, off you should tell readers what your duties will be – in detail. Your job may be to supervise the store. You may cook most of the dishes your restaurant serves. You may supervise a team of 10 tax accountants and review their work. Whatever it is, you’ll need to spell it out in detail – perhaps your text here will cover a page, two pages, or more. And, if you’re thinking about having a couple of other people run the company alongside yourself, you’ll need to map out what they’ll be doing as well.
Next, you’ll need to tell readers more about your management and their qualifications. Translation: You’ll need to assign yourself one of the managerial titles you just wrote up and then map out what would qualify you to fill that particular role. In other words, welcome back to your personal statement and resume. Why? Well, they include a summary (and hopefully by now, details) on your education and work experience, the two things you’ll focus on here. Mind you, your focus here is more limited, so you’ll aim to present a summary of your education and work experience – perhaps one or two paragraphs. You’ll need to do the same for your colleagues. Note: For the purposes of this assignment, do not select a corporate or company structure. Just focus on the information outlined here.
Research Ideas: Once again, keep your readers in mind. You’re performing a sales job here. Your goal is to show your audience your qualifications. Remember, too, that the summary of what you and your cohorts are about should point out things that are specific to your business.
Location (The specific space you'll use)
In your second project memo, you talked about the neighborhood where you’re planning to open. Now you have to look specifically at the space you’ll rent (or buy.)
For this, the third business plan memorandum, you should look to research and describe the type of space – storefront, building, apartment, or otherwise – where you will house your business. You will need to include a list of the equipment you’ll need to purchase or rent and prices for what you’ll need. Yes, it is possible that there will be some minor amount of overlap – you will probably want to include a bit of context to let readers know where the business will be located. All told, however, you’ll be focusing on different information in this assignment.
Research Ideas: Here’s your chance to dive into the real estate market. Review the past four or five weeks of homework folders: At this point, you’ll need to select a spot in the neighborhood that you have been describing. Research one or more of the commercial real estate websites posted here in earlier homework folders. Select a spot in your zip code or neighborhood. You’ll want to present readers details – the size of the space, its location, and any features it might include.
Equipment
Business plans include a section where entrepreneurs need to explain what types of equipment they need to get their business off the ground. In this section, you'll want to provide readers detail on (1) basic equipment you need; (2) brief descriptions of what the equipment does; (3) a source where you can get the equipment; and finally (4) a price as quoted by your source.
Research ideas: When it comes to equipment there are three good starting points. First off, industry organizations or small business press magazines often provide sites, articles, or other sources that spell out what startup businesses in your industry need. Turn to the Lehman Library or Google to start searching for leads. Additionally, there are many industry furniture or equipment providers that advertise on the web or through Internet retailers such as Amazon.
Here are some of the things to consider. If you're opening an accounting office, you'll probably need some basic furniture, a computer, and a printer. Research for these is simple enough: IKEA and Staples sell office furniture. Best Buy and Staples might be sources for computer equipment prices.
Keep one thing in mind, however. You should provide explanations, brief descriptions, and finally price quotes in your own words.
Regulations, Licenses
As per the instructions posted earlier for this class, your third memo doesn’t have to cover regulations and licenses. You will want to include a brief section in your final draft that covers these topics, however.
Open a business and get ready to invite one and potentially many more pairs of eyes to look in on what you’re doing. There’s no escaping the fact that local, state, and federal government can have a hand in how you make products, perform services, or even interact with customers. In some cases, officials want to make sure you know what you’re doing and that you’ve done your homework. In others, the aim is to protect consumers. And then, there’s the fact that governments need money – license revenue in the case of many small businesses – in order to keep running.
Research Ideas: Whatever the reasons involved, it’s your job as a small business owner to know the regulations, permits, and licenses you’ll need. Fortunately, local and state governments list the requirements online. An example is New York City’s government site. Its Business Express page lists some of the city requirements. It also has an “Easy Start” link that provides the run-down on licenses, permits, and other hurdles. Be sure to take good notes so you can report back to readers – in your own words.
Business Express:

Be prepared to discuss any city, state, or federal requirements for your business including licenses, permits, or other regulations. You'll need to explain so readers can keep up. Here are a few of the questions you'll need to answer in your text:
What agency issues the permit or license?
What does it cover?
What are the steps that business owners need to follow to get the license or permit?
How long does it last?
