THE FINAL BUSINESS “IDEA” PLAN

THE FINAL BUSINESS “IDEA” PLAN

It’s time to revise, re-do, or revamp anything from the previous 8 weeks that you would like to do for your Business Idea Plan.   Perhaps you received from feedback from myself or a classmate that has inspired you to make better. Remember that this is NOT a traditional business plan. This is a business IDEA plan, so when you are presenting this to professional it is just to get feedback on if this is a viable business idea to explore further! Here is what I am looking to be submitted this week:

Students will produce a mini business plan. This is a finalized plan is your opportunity to take the weekly assignments and improve them based on the feedback you have received from the instructor and from your classmates from previous weeks.
