For Master class this month, I want you to come up with your own business idea. Be creative and come up with something you could sell, a service to provide, etc... and come prepared to share YOUR business. You need to make a business plan (visuals would be good!) which will show what you would expect to spend, how much profit you would expect, how (and to who) you would market your product/service, how you would figure out your pricing, what suppliers would you work with for raw materials, will you be hiring employees, what regulations you would have to follow, etc...

Come prepared to pitch your business to us.
