Short-Term Plans
 Keep the fares at 40 cents.
 We are starting to pay dividends.
 Reduce both the Promotional and
Advertising Budget to $15000 and $12000.
 We are neither hiring Sales Personnel nor
Maintenance Director because we cannot
afford the bonus rate and fears the
possibility of resigning, if higher bonus rates
are offered by competitors.
Long-Term Plans
Main goal: Continue to grow
Satisfy shareholders and customers:
- Fares at NORMAL rate;
- Costs being low;
- Returning quality for money paid.
Share price increase:
- Increased competitiveness;
- Repayment of debt;
- Increased reliability.
Be less risk averse:
- Adopt new approaches to doing
business and accept relevant
suggestions.
Conclusion
 Positive outlook on current strategy
 More in depth insight of the industry
 Willing to devote time and effort in order to
grow.
