Business Plan for the Spanish Language Learning Academy
This business plan describes the Spanish Language Learning Academy that I propose to establish in my city. There are no other independent Spanish Language learning schools in the city, so competition is not a problem. The Academy will offer independent courses for private classes as well as classes to schools.
Business Description
The Spanish Language Learning Academy will offer a variety of classes and one-on-one sessions to students, young and old, seeking to learn or deepen their knowledge of Spanish. The Academy will hire Spanish-speaking teachers (they must be fluent in speaking and in writing Spanish) who are willing to commit to a one-year contract with the Academy. They will then be contracted to fill teaching positions as they become available. The Academy will host sessions in its building which is owned by the proprietor of the business and it will also conduct on-site classes for schools during the school day. Teachers are supplied with all teaching materials, including worksheets and teacher's guide manuals.
Product or Service
The service that the Spanish Language Learning Academy offers include materials for learning (books and study manuals) included in the price of the classes. A 12-week any level class will cost $300. A 24-week course will cost $500...
Thus, the student receives more lessons for less cost if he/she chooses the longer course. Longer courses are available upon request and school course packages are available so long as the minimum number of students enrolled is met. The minimum number for a class at a school is 10 students. They must be signed up before the classes begin in the fall and spring.
Mission and Vision Statements
The mission of the Spanish Language Learning Academy is to provide professional, quality classes for students of all ages. We offer 1) quality, 2) affordable, 3) comfortable, and 4) balanced classes. The classes are quality: we use a carefully constructed curriculum designed to meet the needs of any level learner. The classes are affordable: for under $25 per session, a student can learn Spanish from a true, Spanish-speaking teacher. The classes are comfortable: one-on-one sessions are conducted informally in the Academy House. The classes are balanced: classes are conducted in Spanish to allow an immersive experience -- but English is not forbidden.
Market Analysis
There is a real market for these classes as there is no other independent academy offering them in the city and schools have a high demand to teach Spanish but have difficulty fitting it into the budget. This Academy helps schools meet the demand without…
As a result, we expect to hit the market with premium pricing. The price point will also be set in accordance with the data gathered from our target market research. A promotional message will need to be finalized and an advertising agency selected in order to help us build our promotional campaign. The promotional message will vary depending on the target market, focusing on different elements of the product. Two
Based on this assessment of the market conditions, we feel our most competitive product is our new Abodo Pork Burger. This product appeals to the traditions of three ethnic groups in our area -- Cuban, Filipino and Mexican -- because of the use of pork and the spicy, chocolaty flavors of the adobo sauce. It also is expected to have significant crossover appeal to mainstream audiences, given the familiarity of
Exchange Rate Trends: The Canadian dollar has been consistently, slightly less valuable than the U.S. dollar for many years and is poised to stay that way. The opportunity for exchange goods and production has remained rather high for this reason. "Canadian dollars per U.S. dollar - 1.3015 (2004), 1.4011 (2003), 1.5693 (2002), 1.5488 (2001), 1.4851 (2000)" (CIA World Factbook "Canada," 2005, NP) Import Restrictions: Import restrictions in Canada are relatively low, as a
However, as Nick is unqualified for the position, the medical question is moot -- Nick would not be hired because he has no experience. Michelle has some past experience and would be under consideration. Under the terms of the Pregnancy Discrimination Act prohibits discrimination on the basis of pregnancy in employment. The Act does not explicitly prohibit Mei-Lin from inquiring about the pregnancy, but it is recommended that she refrain
It is as such necessary to assess it in light of the negative consequences it might generate, the resources available to the company so that it reduces the threat of the problem and finally, the criteria which need to be satisfied in order to state that the problem has been resolved (Principia Cybernetica Web). a) Problem components: different views manifested primarily in cultural barriers (such as language barriers); lack of
In that regard, even the protections available in more sophisticated societies cannot prevent major governmental corruption, exploitation, or unethical business practices in the private sector. Therefore, the prospect of expanding our company presence to Kava does not obligate us to become more directly involved in Kava government or politics, but it does impose an obligation on our part to encourage the most beneficial organizational values and practices at every level.
