7. Introduction
A business plan is a formal statement of business goals, reasons they are attainable, and plans for
reaching them. It may also contain background information about the organization or team
attempting to reach those goals. Business plans may target changes in perception and branding
by the customer, client, taxpayer, or larger community. When the existing business is to assume
a major change or when planning a new venture, a 3 to 5 year business plan is required, since
investors will look for their investment return in that timeframe. In the sense that business
involves the exchange of good, service or money for mutual benefit, we are all involve in
business. Our business plan is about produce Handicrafts product. Handicrafts are unique
expressions and represent a culture, tradition and heritage of a country. The handicraft industry is
one of the important productive sectors. Various attempts have been made to define this board
and diversified industry. The following definition strives to cover diversity and complexity of
Handicraft Industry. Handicrafts and Origami can be defined as products which are produced
either completely by hand or with the help of tools. Handicrafts are made from raw materials and
can be produced in unlimited numbers. Such products can be utilitarian, aesthetic, artistic,
creative, culturally attached, decorative, functional, traditional, religiously and socially symbolic
and significant.
Objectives of the Study
The human element is the core of business. Business needs people as owner, managers,
employees and consumers. People need business for the production of goods and service and the
creation of job.
• Establishing Business: Establishing our business takes research and planning. If we take
the time to understand what is required, we can make the best decisions for our business.
There are many elements to consider when we establish our business, including the
business structure and name that is appropriate for us. It's also important to ensure that
we take the time to investigate premises and leasing options so we find the business
location that will attract our target market. We also need to consider how we will finance
our business and organize our banking.
• Business Problem: Starting a business is a big achievement for many entrepreneurs, but
maintaining one is the larger challenge. There are many standard challenges that face
every business whether they are large or small. These include things like hiring the right
people, building a brand and so on. However, there are some that are unique to small
businesses - ones most large companies have grown out of long ago. There’s nothing
easy about starting own business. The road to success is a bumpy one indeed and we’re
sure to encounter some problems along the way. There’s no need to worry, however,
because every problem has a solution. Just like anything else, building our business is a
process that takes a lot of work.
P a g e | 1
8. • Overcome Business Problem: Before we even get started we need to develop a business
plan. Our mission statement for what we want to achieve with our business needs to be
very clear. If we don’t have set goals, we won’t have anything to reach for. We can build
a business all we want but if no one knows about it, we’re not going to get very
far. Developing a marketing strategy is a must. We need to cover all angles when it
comes to marketing. However, we shouldn’t get so wrapped up in social media that we
disregard conventional marketing means such as print ads, radio advertisements and
more. To stand strong we need to have a marketing campaign that covers everything.
Limitations of the Study
• Limitation of Time: Our business is along with six party. The time limitation of our
business is about 4 years. If the members of our party want we can extend the time
limitation of our business.
• Limitation of Knowledge: Because we are doing business for the first time that’s why
we don’t have enough knowledge on our business. That’s why we can’t run our business
properly. And also we need to face so many problems.
• Limitation of Information: Because we are doing business for the first time we can’t
gather all the information of business within a short time. That’s why we can’t maintain
our business properly, because of this may be we have to face a big amount of loss in
future.
• Limitation of Support: For doing business we need a huge amount of asset but
sometime we cannot arrange enough assets for business that time if we don’t have any
other way to collect money from different sources that’s called limitation of support.
