Hall Woodworks & Designs | Application Preview
Hall Woodworks & Designs is seeking government grants to fund the expansion of their facility and enhance their online presence. The requested funds will be used to build a dedicated clean and finishing room for their products, which will protect equipment and ensure the quality of finished goods. They plan to upgrade their heating system with a cold climate heat pump, promoting eco-friendly practices, and to enhance their online platform for better advertising and sales.
The business aims to become a significant community player within five years, emphasizing their commitment to quality and community engagement. They highlight their strong work ethic and dedication to participating in local events as reasons for grant approval.
In the competitive landscape, Hall Woodworks contends with various rivals, including larger corporations and popular online shops, which often have substantial advertising budgets and dedicated marketing teams. However, their competitive advantage lies in being a husband-and-wife team that handles all aspects of the business personally, from product creation to maintenance, while using locally sourced materials. This approach not only strengthens their connection to the community but also ensures product integrity and craftsmanship.

Self Identified Competition
Competitors range from brick and mortar shops, the fiercely popular online shops and the large corporations. Being a small business is very hard to compete with a business who can afford to pay 3k in advertising or have a team dedicated to run their social media appearance. We are a husband and wife team. We do everything thing ourselves. From designing and creating products to building maintenance and equipment upkeep. We support our local community. All wood products, are made with locally sourced wood species.
