Boston's+Best+Bakery+26

Hey Group,

Nick and I just met with Dr. Martin in Starbucks, and here are a couple things he mentioned about adding. Lower sugar contents, baker with experience, possible nutritionist/dietician consultant or on staff, revise baker budget, be conscious of advertising. Add in appendices: pie chart to show percentages, show we can believe we can make the money back (break-even chart) I think we've got a great business plan here and there's only a little tweeking left to do. I'm thinking we can work on this later tonight? Thanks, Aly

--- Hey guys, I found out the cost of a solar powered water heater, The annual lifetime operating cost would be about $1,000.00. I will add this to the expense sheet ASAP

Here is the operations. Clay

Above is the management and ownership. Clay

Hey guys, So far this is what I have found through my research. Hopefully this will help. Nick



Hey Nick, I think what you have collected for expenses is pretty accurate. One thing I did see missing is that in "going green" you mention a solar powered water heater. What's the cost of that and what would the cost be of using renewable energy?

Hey guys,

Sorry I keep posting on this, but I designed sort of a logo. Let me know if it's okay with you; Nicole and I both like it and it's pretty simple.

Hey guys,

Here is the link to commercial space we are looking to purchase for our bakery.

HHHHHHola! I think we pretty much agreed that we'll start writing the actual business plan and write it as if we already have the money. ("We will..." not like "with this money...") When finished writing each of our sections, post it on the wiki so we can keep track of each addition the the business plan.

Hey in addition to what Nick said I have some other options to be energy effecient including: Low Flush Toilets • Energy Star Appliances, such as fryers, steamers, broilers, griddles and ovens. • Energy Star Refrigeration- These models have better insulation and use almost half as much energy as older models. • Energy Efficient Ventilation Clay

Hey Guys, So I took down the previous business plan outline and below is the one the Dr. Martin had given us. I think that this one is easier to follow and what we went off of to assign parts of the plan. Also, next to each category is the name of who is writing it so we are clear about who is doing what. I will also add the link to the business plan so you can read the descriptions under each category incase there are any discrepencies as to what is to be written for each category.
