Business Plan
Here is a summary of how I plan to grow my business. 1st year: My biggest aim is to buy my first set of clothing in bulk to reduce cost. Eco-friendly materials are not yet popular and can be costly. My line will first feature t-shirts in three styles: Oversized t-shirts, cinched t-shirt dresses, and crop tops. I will seek out hemp materials, as they are carbon negative, provide UV protection, and are biodegradable. Creating a professional and fresh appearance will be focused on. 2nd year: During my second year, the focus will be on gaining wide spread attention. I will first start with using carefully picked brand ambassadors to creative allure. I will also go after opportunities to get my designs featured in local magazines, online blogs, and mentioned in environmental friendly/woman entrepreneur podcasts. We will popularize the use of eco-friendly materials and push other companies to do the same. 3rd year: Our third year will focus on expansion. We will offer different styles, pieces, and become more diversified as a whole. We will offer one-of-a-kind pieces, multi-use items, and 'forever strong' lifetime warranty bags. 4th year: During our fourth year, we will switch from outsourcing pre-made materials and customizing them, to having our own sustainably sourced factory. This way, we cut out the middle man and get a better hold on how our materials are being processed. 5th year: Focus on creating a globally recognized brand that is associated with 'empowerment' versus 'charity', woman's issues, artist representation, and high fashion. The reason you should invest in me is because this brand is an embodiment of who I am, and you really can't go wrong when dealing with the true human spirit. We are inclusive, environmental conscious, and soulful. We seek to popularize the use of eco-friendly materials in all aspects of life, and you should too! I was led to my clothing brand in the 24 years that I have been alive. I studied graphic design in 2014 and received a certificate of completion in it. Since then, I have ran companies, worked in high end retail, opened an eco-friendly cleaning business, started a career as a music artist, and helped to launch an online fashion boutique. I have the experience to make this dream a success.
