When starting a small business there are different approaches that can be taken, one can choose to start out using their own finances or use the popular approach of writing a business proposal asking for funding to start up the business. This paper will present a business proposal for a business idea of my choice giving a detailed summary of the business and its requirements.
Executive summary
