Video Transcript

"Hello my name is Fj Cava and I have a MBA from San Francisco State University in entrepreneurship. I am also owner of the Bayview Webspot here in San Francisco. I'm going to talk to you today about how to prepare a business plan for presentation. First off you should have a completed business plan of course and copies of everyone in the room who you are going to present to. Finally you need to go over your goods and services in thirty seconds or less. Make sure that it is a pithy very clear presentation as to what you are trying to sell. You also need to understand who your target market is in a very clearly defined way and be able to present that to people. You also need to have how much your start up capital is going to be and what your monthly operating expenses are. These are very important for people who are interested in what you are trying to do and how much money it is going to cost. You should also talk about when you think you are going to break even and what your profit margins will be. Finally you should have a nice presentation presented in either a Power Point or other audio video presentation."
