Gee’d Up L.L.C | Application Preview
Gee’d Up L.L.C. is seeking government grants to support essential repairs and improvements for their home-based business. The funds will be allocated towards updating small equipment, fixing an outdated breaker box, covering overdue expenses from the pandemic, and managing other operational needs to maintain business continuity.
The business was founded during the COVID-19 pandemic as a response to the owner needing flexible work arrangements. Initially started at home, the owner dreams of expanding to a larger space that can accommodate more employees and create a better working environment. In five years, the goal is to transition out of the home setting, which currently limits customer engagement.
The owner highlights a personal and emotional investment in the business, having pursued this dream since childhood. The growth seen in the first few months has been encouraging, and securing funding would provide the necessary support to further enhance the business operations. The owner emphasizes strong financial management skills and a commitment to maintaining an orderly budget.
In terms of competition, the business operates in a market with five other similar hair-related services, including an established competitor with over 20 years of experience. However, Gee’d Up L.L.C. differentiates itself with a genuine passion for helping clients achieve healthy hair through the use of chemical-free products. The welcoming environment fosters positive experiences, encouraging customer loyalty and word-of-mouth referrals.

Business Plan
I began this business in my home when I was forced to go PRN, when COVID-19 happened. I have worked hard all my life, was never able to really be home much, until then. So I put my mind to work, and I now have an in home business. I would like to eventually move the business away from my home. Having the business in my home, has many boundaries. I can’t let everyone come to my house. In 5 years I would like to be an owned and operating business, in a whole different atmosphere, with a place that has more space, and room for employees. Yes I started this business doing all the work, but wouldn’t mind not having to work as hard all on my own. My reasons that investors should invest in me, is simply because this was always a dream as an 11 year old girl. I’m 38 now, and just had the actual time I needed, during COVID, to actually put this into play. After 3 months in this business, I could see the growth. I am very amazed at what has come out of this myself. I feel I’m on the right track, and this investment would really give me the boost needed to take care of a few things to make my business better. I’m very responsible, and I carry out a very strong budget on all my finances, even in my regular expenses (non business) are budgeted. That’s very important to me, because with no order in your funding, and income, there’s no business. Order is a must.

Self Identified Competition
There are several top competitors, in my eyes. In my area alone, there is a total of 5 hair type businesses. One lady has been in business for over 20 years, and once wanted me to work in hair shop. What makes me different is that I have a love for helping people. In the hair category, people want their hair to be healthy and beautiful at the same time. When people come to my business, they enjoy the environment, they open up about past experiences with others who have failed their desires, and they tell others about my kindness, and healthy hair products and services. I supply chemical free products, that won’t damage, break, or cause hair loss. My business is a place where people let me know, they really look forward to coming to.
