Business Plan Strategy
Chapter 1, 3 and 4 of Business Plan Strategy
Here
I am going to introduce you to the plan for my business idea which I think is
one of the best platform fin today’s world. The name of my business is Hair and
Skin care Salon.
These
days I believe that male and female both wants to look presentable when it
comes to their looks and this is the profession I am really interested about
and I believe that I also have enough of the information related to the hair
and skin care products along with the different treatments.
I
am not going to establish or start this business salon on my own because I
think that it would be difficult for me to manage all things together alone, so
this business is a partnership based along with one of my very close friend who
is also good in Hair and Skin care treatments. (Teece, 2010)
There
is no as such ideal customers, both men and women can come to the salon and
have our different services in an affordable price. Kids and aged people won’t
be allowed to visit this store because we only deal customers of age 20-40.
I
believe that customers choose to visit our salon instead of the others who are
in the competition because we have different deals for the customers that are
pretty much economical and it would save the amount of our customers and they
can get maximum services with the help of these deals and these deals would
vary with the passage of time.
No
as this is just a start of our business and we make some pure herbal products
for skin and hair treatment, we don’t want to sell our beauty products to other
countries for now. We may do it later but not for now. (Bharadwaj, 2013)
Chapter 5 and 6 of Business Plan Strategy
There
are different areas of management that I believe will be the most important for
my Hair and skin care salon, building of a strong team and I will obviously
train them on my own according to my skills and needs. Innovation should be
always present and I believe that this is the shop that may get tidy pretty
soon and I should be responsible in keeping a check on it that it gets clean
after few time to make it look clean.
Being
the owner of hair and skin care salon there are some basic important management
skills that are really important. Here I am in charge of making things under
control. Some of the basic management skills are communication. Staff working
in salon should communicate in a very nice way with the customers. Team
building is another important factor and the last one is giving an appropriate
training to the staff. It depends on the demand of customers and response of
customers to see that whether these skills get changed or not. (Wingfield, 2008)
Like
every other owner I also have some of the business goals in my mind which I
want to fulfill. I want to satisfy the customers and this is my top most
priority, I want them to be happy and satisfied with the services which we give
them. I want to my salon to be famous. I want my team to work with full energy
and give their best.
Thinking
about the future I believe no one is really particular how things will work in
the future time but I am sure because of our services and the products we use
will raise the customers and this would definitely require a large group of
employees. I don’t believe in the huge group of employees but I believe that
every staff member should be properly skilled and trained. I guess 4-5 would be
increased because it would be easy to train them.
Organization chart for business:
Decision
making in my business hair and skin care salon would be decentralized. No doubt
owners are the ones who take decisions but sometimes other staff employee can
also give pretty good decisions and they carry much weight in them. (Lam, 2018)
No
I don’t think in next 10 years my organization structure will be same. My salon
would be very famous among the whole town. My team would definitely get expand
and I would open my branch at other places as well.
Chapter 8 of Business Plan Strategy
I
expect my employees to be kind and supportive. They should be honest not just
with me but with the customers as well. They should treat them with full love
and care and this is not just it they should also be fair enough in giving out
consultations to them whoever asks them.
If
I were able to measure the emotional intelligence for the employees, motivation
is the most important one for me because if they get motivated and start loving
their work only then they can achieve their goals and help in the expansion of
business by keeping customers happy and satisfied. So motivation is very
important for every employee.
Maslow’s
needs hierarchy best explains motivation in the workplace, I will motivate my
employees to work hard for my business by showing them how motivation and hard
work gets paid off. Employees can only be motivated when they see that there
leader is also motivated so this is how I will introduce it in my business
venture.
No
in my business plan, employees won’t be able to work from home because this is
the kind of job which can’t be managed from home. Yes flexible hours of working
will be given to the employees in two different shifts, morning and the evening
one.
