Can u DIY LLC | Application Preview
Can u DIY LLC is seeking government grants to fund the purchase of a dedicated building for their operations. Currently, the business is constrained by working out of multiple storage units with limited hours and no electricity, making it challenging to charge and transport tools. Having a dedicated shop would allow for better organization and efficiency.
In terms of their business plan, Can u DIY LLC aims to diversify beyond woodworking over the next five years. The owner also has experience in website creation and graphic design, with plans to focus on one area at a time for growth while eventually bringing on employees to assist. The goal is to expand sales both locally and nationwide.
The owner expresses determination as a young woman in a male-dominated industry, viewing challenges as opportunities for growth. She is committed to the business's future, envisioning it as a legacy for her children.
Competition is perceived less as a threat and more as inspiration, with the owner looking up to figures like Jeff Bezos and Alice Walton for their success stories. She acknowledges that she is just starting her journey, but is optimistic about leveraging existing platforms for future growth, with aspirations of becoming a top seller across major retail channels.

Funding Usage
I will be using the funds to continue to purchase equipment needed. I mainly need the funds to purchase a building so that I'll have my own shop. It's hard working out of a small storage. I have a curfew of 9 pm and I don't have electricity in my storages. I have to charge my tools and transport them back and forward. I would love so bad to have a shop of my own. Space to move around and have everything in one place vs 4 different storages.

Business Plan
In the next 5 years I plan to expand beyond just wood work. My business is already beyond wood work. I also create websites, and graphic designs. I have so much knowledge in different areas and within 5 years I want to constantly strengthen each area, but focus on one area at a time. I would like to bring employees on to help me as well. Wood work goes so much easier when there's someone there to help. I would like to sell both custom pieces and standard pieces, not just locally but wood wide also. I plan to go to work shops and gain more knowledge. I know I can grow my business bigger than Amazon with help. I'm determined. I'm a young woman in an industry thats denominated by men. It's always going to be a challenge and it's a challenge I'll never decline. My business will go beyond my dreams. I have faith and I have seen how far I've come already. I'll never see how far my company will go because I plan to pass it on to my kids before I pass away and I'm only 30 right now. But my company will out live me and will see many generations in my family.

Self Identified Competition
My top 3 competitors, to be honest, I don't feel I have competitors just mentors. I research, and study Jeff Bezos, Alice Walton, and Larry Page. There's more but they're my top 3. They all minus Alice Walton not only created their dream they mastered it. They started off at the lowest positions. Knowing that Jeff Bezos started by selling books from his garage, and to see where he is now. It's astonishing, and I can't wait to sit across the table from him soon. I study Alice Walton because most people that get part of major companies lose their fortunes within 2 years. She's on year 5. She not only inherited fortune she basically flipped it to gain more but in what she had a passion for. I'm honestly not different. I'm the young version of them. I'm at point A of where they started. They're at letter T and I'm jumping in the race. I'll get to use their platforms to grow my company. Soon to be top googled, top seller on Amazon, furniture sold in all Walmarts.
