SHAUN’S CRITERIA
Hi Team,
I wanted to provide you some guidelines as you determine how we’ll finance our
expansion. Please give this careful consideration, as we need to get this right.
1. I estimate we’ll need $150,000 to increase capacity in order to stock the five
additional pop-up stands
2. We’ll need to make sure we have additional funds available to increase our
marketing efforts to stimulate demand
3. I’d like to maintain or increase our profit margins
4. If we’re successful over the next two years, we’ll likely seek additional capital to
expand into more stores, so I’d like to do all we can now to enhance our
credibility
We need to move on this quickly, so I’d like an answer by the end of the week.
-Shaun
