I Haven’t decided on a business but a barbecue place in Virginia like we have back in Chicago would be great. They have no barbecue place down here. I have eaten at Robison and it sucked.

I have no clue whatsoever about what I am going to do for my business plan. This kind of goes with my expectations for the course. I expect to learn alot in here because my knowledge of the buisness field is extremely limited. I understand the general ideas behind buisness management, but when it goes in depth, I am completely clueless. I will think about my plan over the weekend.

Liquid Animation. It's an idea that I came up with and trying to create. It's 3D and 2D graphics that will tween/motion to match the beats of what the dj is spinning.

zOMG, i expect to pass this class with an A and hopefully glean some information that I did not previously know, regarding business. we will see how this works out.


as for my business plan, i will begin by designing a flow chart that will show how I plan on instigating a hostile takeover of a international corporate entity. I intend on generating enough start-up capital legally so that i do not have to rely on subjective financial practices. As I begin to gain a controlling interest by any means necessary in said company, I will show possible strategic options that I may need to deploy to successfully complete my objective.

...or, I may open a comic and video game shop.

Lindsay said...

Who is Josh? We need to work together. I'm on the same boat as you. I'm clueless on this subject and what I am going to do my business plan on. Maybe we can work together and come up with something? If you're interested, email me:

I think I am going to do something like....”Protecting Americaz Boxing Gym” because there is no type of boxing gyms or professional fights held in the Hampton Roads area.

Judd said...

I have thought somewhat of a business plan. I believe its going to be something like an arcade or some form of gaming entertainment.

Deirdre said...

I'm still undecided on my business plan but i will try to come up with some idea over the weekend.

There are a million things this area could use but what immediately comes to mind is an Organic food market, an organizational accessories store or finally a specialty sporting goods store located near the VB Sportsplex. I am excited about this class in the CG we do not follow general business rules and if it was a small business they would be out of business.

Diana said...

I'm not sure at all where i wanna go with this whole business plan thing.
As for the class, the material seems very familiar to me.

PJ said...

Brian Simmons said...

im still brainstorming, but an early buisness plan is going to be a nightclub/bar......i have always wanted to open my owm club/bar, so this should give me a good idea of what it is going to take......

Brian Simmons said...

Since i currently work as a bartender in a local bar/nightclub and i see how much differently the place could be ran for a better profit, i have chosen to do my business plan on a nightclub/bar. To give you a lil idea on what i am aiming for:
This is going to be THE place to go and just let all your problems disappear for the moment you are there!!!!!
This is going to be the place that ANYONE is welcome!!!!!

Stay tuned for more details on the COOLEST place that is coming to a location near you!!!!!

My business plan would involve a partnership where a Driver Improvement academy would be created. With this partnership, one person would get certified as an instructor and the other would run the graphics and complete the support roles for the company. It only takes $50 to become a DMV approved instructor along with proof of completion of an approved curriculum. The DMV publishes your availability.

Once I attended a driver improvement class for $65.00 There were about 30 people in the room.
All the instructor did was show videos. (You do the math!)

I think i will probably do my business plan on a restaurant just because i know a lot about it. I have a few ideas...

Anonymous said...

An idea for my business plan would center around non-stylized modern artists being able to sell their art online, similar to DeviantArt. Another idea would be a game training class kind of like piano lessons, but for people who want to improve their gaming techniques.
