...Business Case Research Paper IST 7020 Analysis, Modeling and Design Wilmington University Business Case Research Paper Business Case A business case is a document which is used to help in starting a task or a project. It can be in any format of text, presentation or a discussion. A basic justification to implement the given task can also be called as a Business Case. Typically, a Business Case would be documented for future reference or sometimes stated orally for better understanding. It usually depends on the business ideology and its practical implementation(TechTarget, n.d.). Before thinking of building a business case, an individual should understand thoroughly the core of the project. It may take huge efforts in achieving this goal but a rough estimate of the same would be beneficiary(TechTarget, n.d.). Example: If the manager of a sunglasses store notices that the business is very slow in the winter, he can tell the owner by preparing a business case for store renovation in winter with winter stuff along with the sunglasses. It might create some good business(TechTarget, n.d.). Method in developing business case: * Complete Overview and Thorough Analysis: While submitting a business case, the analysis done should be covered all around in order to achieve a better result of the Project and a feasible Solution to overcome the same(TechTarget, n.d.). * Validating if the business case built is actually stating the exact problem and thereby resolving...

...Business Planning I. Introduction A business plan is a formal document indicating a set of company goals, the plan for achieving those set goals and a description why the management believe that those goals are attainable and etc. Its primary value is to evaluate the viability of the potential projects and to analyze the business prospects. It may also contain background information about the company such as mission, vision and how suitable and feasible the project is, to the company. Business plans may also target changes in perception and branding by the customer, client, taxpayer, or larger community. A business plan will be useful to a company in many ways. Firstly it will clearly identify and focus the company objectives using suitable information and analysis. Also it can be used as a selling tool when dealing with lenders, investors and banks. A business plan is also a road map that provides directions so a business can plan its future and helps it avoid bumps in the road. The time you spend making your business plan thorough and accurate, and keeping it up-to-date, is an investment that pays big dividends in the long term. Business planning is very significant because it is the first step toward success in your business venture. From obtaining funding to hiring employees to planning for expansion, a business plan can be your guide to keeping your business on track. Your business plan can keep you focused on your goals and keep you moving forward. ...

...start a business”. I found this point to be very interesting for starting a business has and continues to be a dream of mine. Within this category were sub- categories such as: business startup strategy, the right business for you, knowing your industry before you start your business, and estimating realistic startup cost. Although all very intriguing, I found the category on business startup strategies to be the most important for it gave the basics on how to start up a business, something that I didn’t know before The second key learning point that I found to be very interesting was where to start and what to do when “Buying a business”. I found this to be very interesting because if I can’t start a business, buying one would be the next best thing. Categories within this learning point included planning for purchasing a business, questions to ask when buying a business, knowing what you’re getting, and how to figure out what a business is worth. The last key learning point that I found to be very interesting while browsing the website was possibly more important than the first two learning points, “How to write a business plan”. Through the links in this category including: a standard business plan outline, different types of plans for businesses, what a business plan is, what makes a good plan, mistakes that can be made, a simpler plan for starting up a business and how long a business plan should be.

...Creating a Successful Business Plan (for the Artist) Creating a Successful Business Plan (for the Artist) Prepared by SaskMusic (the Saskatchewan Recording Industry Association) http://www.saskrecording.ca/ The following document was created strictly for those interested in understanding the different aspects of a business plan. There are several models for creating business plans and as such, this is only one possible model. Make sure that you are writing a business plan which best reflects you as an artist and your music. Just a reminder: Your business is your music, your band and all of the promotion and marketing that you do for yourself so that you are successful in this industry. What is a Business Plan? The business plan outlines your professional goals, how you will achieve those goals and the resources that you have and need to get in order to achieve those goals. It is basically the story of your career and your business. The business plan takes you from the “idea stage” to the “action stage.” Why Write a Business Plan? At the very basic level (and perhaps the most important level), the business plan will allow you to focus your thinking, set a realistic plan with realistic goals, and get you moving forward with your career. Additionally, the business plan can be used to bring in key players whom you would like to have as a part of your team. These key players might include prospective managers, agents, labels. The business plan shows these people...

...Business plan models Name: Institution: Class: Instructor: Date: Question 1 Business plan models are very crucial in any business organization. This is because they help the entrepreneur to outline what it is required to have a successful business. Here we discuss four different business plan models in the food industry. Each business plan model is different and designed to suit the type of business that one needs to start. The four business plan models that I am going to review are catering and ballroom rental business plan, catering business plan, non- profit food bank business plan and bakery business plan. These four business plan models are similar but they differ in different ways to suite the targeted market. One of the things that is evident in the four models is that they are all aimed at making profit. This is because the main aim to start any business is for the profits. The other thing that is similar in the four plans is that they all aim at acquiring the largest market share in the industry. This is done by implementing ways and means of attracting and retaining customers that will enable them to achieve the largest market share. The other thing that is similar in the four business models is the cultures and the policies adopted i.e. to offer the best customer service. The other thing that is similar is the business strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (Osterwalder & Pigneur, 2013). One of the strengths is that the four models that are in the food...
