Scheduled Meeting #1

The First Scheduled Meeting - Thursday 14th December

It has been decided to schedule a regular weekly meeting with Peter and Emma every Monday after school. This will be in addition to any other meetings you set up within your businesses.

Thank you to all of you that made the effort to attend the meeting last night. If you weren’t there I suggest you catch up with the rest of your business partners to find out any relevant information.

The deadline for making the minimum £80 and opening your bank accounts is January 8^th. If you need a hand completing the paperwork please come and see me.

Don’t forget the following:

• your company secretaries now have to create a timeline of events
• you need to complete deciding on a company name
•  you need a logo/brand
• you need to decide on a product and how it is going to be packaged to encourage sales
• you need a spreadsheet to work out all of your start-up costs, direct and indirect costs; it also needs to show your income and expenditure projections
•  you need to identify and question your target market(s)
• you might need to get a sample product to show your target market and get feedback

Trade Shows

The first trade show is on the 7^th February and the second is on the 21^st March. You can raise money from now and sell as soon as you are ready to roll.

I think that is all but I will be available on email during the holidays if you have any questions.

Good luck

Mr. C
