As both economy and business markets rise and fall in nature, businesses must determine “the major goals of the organization and the policies and strategies for obtaining and using resources to achieve those goals. This process is known as strategic planning” (Aqeel Ahmed Khan, 2014). The organization policies are broad guidelines for action and its strategies determine the best way to use the resources at hand. When preparing a business plan it is optimal for the organization to ensure they are aware of what customers they will be serving, when they will be able to provide service, what products and services to sell, and the geographic area in which they will compete for business. Strategic planning is becoming more difficult because changes are occurring so fast that plans, even those set for months into the future, may soon be obsolete. Small-business owners often find themselves in a rapidly changing environment, anticipating trends and determining the best strategies and tactics to achieve the goals set forth may be the ultimate option. The predictable change and strategy to react along with forthcoming change should be included within the business plan. A business plan contains...

This is a very well written business plan that was obviously thoroughly thought out. Rutabaga Sweets is a desert bar and bakery located in Washington DC. This bakery has an interesting twist on what people may think of a normal bakery. I will be conducting a SWOT analysis by providing information about the business’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. It will explain the health of the business, problems the business venture may face, as well as, ideas that might improve this business venture. Some strengths in this business venture are, it is a sole proprietorship. Which means there is only one owner, and they are responsible for any liabilities, or cash made by this business. Another strength to this business, is that it is not just a regular bakery. Customers can go in and eat there, and watch their food be prepared, or customers can call in and pre-order deserts for parties and things. This bakery also, offers cooking classes and clubs. These strengths will attract customers, and create many sales.
