I will take the following steps-
- Get the requirements for the Franchise from Jamal and Brian-
Since its a franchise model, there will be some minimum standards
that Jamal and Brian are looking for. These can be in terms of
capacity, area, types of cars that can be detailed, number of
workers etc. I will also take details of profit sharing or cost of
the franchise name etc.
- Based on those requirements, the first things I will do is make
a basic model for my cost requirements. It will give me a general
idea about the funds that I require. Along with this, I will also
make a plan for profitability of the store, based on what the
standard “Hot
Guys & Hot Chics Mobile Car Detailing” model of sharing profits
or costs is, and on how much traffic I am expecting at the store
and general profitability of such stores.
- If I have the funds on my own, thats one thing taken care of.
Otherwise I will also make plan on how I can secure those funds-
from family, friends or loan from bank etc.
- Once I have those details, I will stake out different areas
where I can realistically open such a shop- some areas might have
more car traffic and others less. If the franchise serves high end
cars then I will look at a nearby affluent area. Cost of rental
spance in the area will also be a factor.
- Once I have the space and required funds, I will make plans
about remodeling the space to fit the “Hot Guys & Hot Chics
Mobile Car Detailing” model. For this I will also need to decide
upon whom to hire.
- Post
that, I will plan on how to hire the required workers who are
skilled and experienced enough to fulfill the requirements set by
“Hot Guys & Hot Chics Mobile Car Detailing”.
- Finally,
I will also make plans for legal requirements to be fulfilled
regarding the same. I will need to get a license and will also need
to clear other legal requirements, as required.
This will
be my detailed plan.
