Presentation 2 Rough Draft

A. Introduction (1-2 min) 
  1. My EQ "What is most important to running a successful bakery distribution company?"
  2. Ask 3 people what they think are important factors of running a business. 
  3. I chose to talk about the importance of location in running a bakery, because it has a great impact on the success of your business. Deciding on the perfect area is one of the first steps in starting your business.
  4. My objective: After listening to my presentation, I want my audience to have a better understanding of what makes a good location for any type of business, specially for a bakery, and what factors can affect choosing a location.  I also want them to be able to determine what the best location in a given situation would be. 
B. Body (8-9 min)
  1. 5 types of location 
    • homebased 
    • retail
    • mobile
    • commercial 
    • industrial
  2. Factors to consider 
    • affordable
    • demographics - accessible, parking, pedestrian traffic and target audience, location history, competition.
    • business requirements and equipment needs
      • distribution- market coverage 
  3. Collecting Data of target audience and area
    • primary and secondary
  4. Activity (6 min)
    • Partners will be given different situations that entrepreneurs have to go through.  They will have to determine the known factors of the situation, and if the location is the best choice or what they think would be the best location, and why or why not. 
C. Conclusion (1 min)
  1. Location, location, location! All work put into running the bakery may not matter if the location is not right. 
  2. Most important source- to be determined.
  3. This semester I plan to bring together all of my business research with my baking research and make it apply better to my EQ.
  4. Q&A
D. Materials 
  1. 4-5 created scenarios for 13 partners
