The Homework Hangout’s preferred timing is listed above in the Gnatt chart; the process the principals decided on was in order to optimize start-up and an initial goal of 200+ clients. All this would be ideally complete at April 2017. The company will start with incorporation and starting paperwork and business licenses. The next steps will go from funding such as grants and loans. Upon finalizing all paperwork and funding the business will move towards filling mandatory positions and training efforts. Finalizing plans and implementing marketing will be our next steps and then the organization will move towards grand opening and gaining clients.
In case of a setback during the setup of The Homework Hangout, it would be very wise to identify a variety of optional locations that can be used but still remain within the community or as close as possible. In a financial setback, it would be useful to identify a variety of other financial intuitions that can be potential lenders. It would also be useful to look for sponsorships and into constant fundraising ventures to ensure that our lenders and stakeholders are aware of how serious and how important it is to get this business plan off the ground and into a successful future for the youth. Should there be a natural disaster problem, collaborating with local learning facilities would be a great idea.
