Project Task: Create a Business Plan Presentation

Your textbook gives you a good basic outline of what your business plan should contain and you can Google some examples.  Here’s a website that might help: https://www.sba.gov/business-guide/plan-your-business/write-your-business-plan  (Links to an external site.)  (specifically the sample plans). Prepare a PowerPoint presentation consisting of an outline of your business plan targeted towards such audience (and addressing the below listed matters).  You must clearly indicate: the securities being offer, the amount of proceeds sought and the use of those funds.  Financials are required – use specific, somewhat realistic numbers.  Outline the protections being offered to the potential investor group.  Submit the PowerPoint for your corporation in what I refer to as “View Mode” (and I think the online version calls “Presentation”or “Show” depending on which version; basically, so it opens as a slide show and not as a PPT file that I could edit – only PowerPoint is allowed). Limit of 10 slides, plus an optional title slide and appendix slide (these two additional/optional slides cannot be used to fulfill the core requirements of the project but may be used to identify your name, your business name and citing to references).  Do not go over the slide limit.  You cannot increase the slide count by using automation or transitions – watch the presentation before you submit and count how many slides (excluding title and appendix) the show appears to have. For purposes of this assignment, review: Business Plan Executive Summary:   Your executive summary is a snapshot of your business plan as a whole and touches on your company profile and goals. Market Analysis:    Before launching your business, it is essential for you to research your business industry, market and competitors.  What is your business industry?  Tell me who your competition is and who your target market is.  Be sure to identify the market and locale. Company Description:    Your company description provides information on what you do, where you do it, how you do it, and what differentiates your business from others. Organization & Management:     Every business is structured differently. Decide the best organization and management structure for your business.  Remember – you formed a corporation.  Structure accordingly.  Do you have employees?   Marketing & Sales:    How do you plan to market your business? What is your sales strategy? Service or Product Line:    What do you sell? How does it benefit your customers? What is the product life cycle? Funding Request:    What types of funding for your business are you seeking?  What can investors expect to receive in return if they invest in the business? Select an audience for financing your venture based on the sources of financing suggested in your readings.  It is my desire that you to seek third party funding of some sort.  While in reality, and technically in this project, you can ‘self-fund’, you will lose points and have difficulty conforming your submission to the instructions and you still must have clear financials and realistic funding (i.e., if you need $10mil in start-up, don’t tell me you are self funding as I am not going to believe you).  Therefore, if you self-fund, you do so at your own peril- I am warning you now that this phase and future phases are much easier if you adopt an outside audience for your funding request.  Either way, I want specifics – how much, what type of investor are you targeting (or if self-funding, how are you going to do this) and what do the persons supplying the money get for their investment.  Financial Projections:     Providing financial projections to back up your request is critical.  For purposes of this assignment, you need funding (if you are ‘self funding, you still need start up capital; you are not allowed to fund 100% by operations) and I need to see specific financial projections.  Include the following: Profit and Loss Projection (min 3yr; detailed line item, not just totals), Cash Flow Projection, Breakeven Analysis (i.e. -when will you hit this, month 12, month 24, month 725?).  Your financials must match what you told us in the previous slides.  Do you have office space? Warehouse?  You must have lease or purchase costs in your financials.  Do you have employees?  Then you have a salary burden in your financials.  Do you own delivery trucks?  How did you acquire these – lease?  Debt?  You get the idea. 

Identify what teaching strategies and professional/personal goals can support the ongoing development of these practices.

Essay Early childhood teachers in Aotearoa New Zealand are guided by Te Whāriki and Tātaiako to respectfully implement Māori cultural knowledge, values and practices throughout the day to day teaching and learning experiences within their early childhood centres.  For some teachers this is a new journey and for others, a continuing one. Introduce your essay by reflecting on your learning journey and articulating your knowledge of Te Tiriti o Waitangi and Māori cultural knowledge, values and practices. Consider why a commitment to these areas is important and what you can do in order to grow and develop your learning journey further. Then select two practices encompassing Māori cultural knowledge and values that can be effectively implemented into an early childhood centre. ·       Explain how they honour Te Tiriti o Waitangi ·       Examine their importance and contribution to children’s learning and early childhood education  ·       Explain how they can be authentically implemented; and ·       Identify what teaching strategies and professional/personal goals can support the ongoing development of these practices Explore practical ways to support key aspects of kaupapa Māori, tikanga Māori, and te reo Māori in early childhood contexts   Critically examine historical and contemporary perspectives in relation to Te Tiriti o Waitangi and The Treaty of Waitangi   Critically analyse and apply strategies for ongoing bicultural development and Tiriti-based early childhood education
