         <description><![CDATA[<div>(This Business Plan is a short variant of real Business Plan in my course work)<br><br></div><div><strong>Business description</strong></div><div>This business plan describes LLC "Athletic", which scope is the provision of gym services.</div><div>The founders of LLC "Athletic" are Shchurok I.N. (my university friend, we made the business plan together 2 years ago) and Yanovich K.N. <br> Financing of the organization is carried out at the expense of the authorized fund. The statutory fund of the company is 10,000 (ten thousand) Belarusian rubles. The shares of each participant in the statutory fund:</div><div>1) Shchurok I.N. - 55% of the authorized fund;</div><div>2) Yanovich K.N. - 45% of the authorized fund.</div><div>The legal address of the organization: 16/a Metallurgical street, Gatovo 223017. Phone: (017) 5034898.</div><div>The legal address corresponds to the actual location of the organization.</div><div>The planned duration of the project is 3 years. During this period, according to our calculations, we will completely pay back our investments, and we will be able to make a profit.</div><div>The main task of LLC "Athletic" is to provide an opportunity for lovers of a healthy lifestyle to do sports using professional equipment.</div><div>The goal of our project is not only to make <strong> a</strong> profit, but also to attract people to an active lifestyle.<br><br></div><div><strong>Description of services</strong></div><div>The popularity of a healthy lifestyle in the modern world is undeniable. Everyone is eager for it, regardless of age. Thanks to the possibilities of the Internet and the examples of famous athletes, many want to have a beautiful <strong>body</strong> and developed muscles. But in most cases, there is no time or special equipment for doing sports at home. Therefore, people turn to the services of gyms or fitness clubs. If in the city it’s easy to find a fitness club, in small towns there are big problems with the infrastructure. (<strong>While it's easy to find a gym in the city, the are big problems with the infrastructure in small towns)</strong></div><div>In our gym there is a wide range of professional simulators. The hall area is divided into three zones. There are zones with cardio and power simulators and a zone with gymnastic equipment.</div><div>Our clients can always consult with highly qualified trainers, who will help in drawing up individual programs for any visitor, in accordance with his wishes and capabilities.</div><div>Prices in the gym will depend on the types of subscriptions. According to the analysis of the competitive market, the following types of subscriptions are proposed: (it's better to use the word '<strong>membership</strong>' here)</div><div>• Subscription for one-time visit</div><div>• Subscription for 4 visits</div><div>• Season ticket for 8 visits</div><div>• Subscription for 12 visits</div><div>• Free admission subscription</div><div>Subscriptions for 4, 8 and 12 visits are valid for a month.</div><div>The availability of a subscription allows the client to use any services offered by LLC “Athletic” without additional payment in the period established by the subscription. The duration of one visitation is 1.5 hours.</div><div>In addition we offer a free admission subscription. This subscription allows you to access the services of the gym unlimited number of times, but not more than 3 hours a day.</div><div>The gum will be open from 12 AM to 10 PM six days a week except Sundays.<br><br></div><div><strong>Market analysis</strong></div><div>Every year the attendance of all kinds of gyms and fitness clubs is steadily growing.</div><div>In our case, the gym is located on the second floor of a house in the town of Gatovo in Minsk region. The population of the town exceeds 12,000 people. The total population of nearby settlements exceeds 30,000 people.</div><div>Our gym is designed for children over 12 years and adults under 55 years old. Consequently, most of the population of the above-mentioned settlements are our potential customers.</div><div>A favorable condition for choosing this place is the almost complete absence of competitors. The nearest gyms are located on the territory of the city of Minsk. Therefore, we have several competitive advantages. Firstly, our gym is located in the center of Gatovo, which means that it will be easier to get to us from almost any point of the southeast of the Minsk region, rather than to competitors in Minsk. Secondly, the price of visiting our hall will be relatively lower because of the low rental value outside the city.</div><div>Advantages of our organization in this market:</div><div>1) low prices;</div><div>2) high level of service quality;</div><div>3) availability of modern equipment;</div><div>4) the availability of equity capital;</div><div>5) advantageous geographical position;</div><div>6) low competition of the local market.<br><br></div><div><strong>Market strategy</strong></div><div>To inform and attract the population in our gym we will set up an advertising campaign. It will include the distribution of flyers on the street with the offer of free first class in all nearby settlements, the placement of advertisements on message boards, as well as in the newspaper “Pristolichye”.</div><div>Thus, by the end of the 1<sup>st</sup> year we plan to occupy 90% of the local market of gyms.</div><div>We also intend to cooperate with the Gatovo secondary school. We consider the possibility of conducting physical education classes for the 9<sup>th</sup>-11<sup>th</sup> forms in our gym.<br><br></div><div><strong>Management plan</strong></div><div>To realize the goals of the organization and the tasks assigned to it, it is necessary to create the appropriate staff. In our gym the following positions are created: director, accountant, 2 trainers, cleaner. The director and the accountant work 8 hours a day, the trainers work in shifts. The schedule of work of the cleaner is not standardized.<br><br></div><div><strong>Financial information</strong></div><div>Investments                                    8472 BYN</div><div>Net present value over 3 years    20005,6 BYN</div><div>Payback period                              15 months</div><div>Profitability index                           2.36</div><div>Breakeven point                             15,106 visits</div><div>Coefficient of safety factor          25.4%<br><br></div>]]></description>

Of course we trying to diversify our business. That's why we made some scrutiny about west <strong>countries</strong>' markets.

Consider: we already register this trademark just before presentation.<br>Our major customers <strong>are</strong> oldfashioned generation of Belarus, Russia and Kazakhstan.

It's just a string bag. Nothing else!

         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>Intro<br></strong>Have you ever heard about the "Internet of Things" or IoT? <strong>I just </strong>want to share my ideas with you.<br>It won't be kind of a business plan, I won't calculate profits, let's leave it to the accountants, I want to present an idea of future development of technologies and its commercial use.<br><br><strong>Description<br></strong>Imagine that all things in your home are smart and they are able to connect each other to exchange infromation, but you'll ask me why and I'll answer you: to make your life easier. So what is IoT? It's time to explain. Every thing, every gadget, every device (your kettle too) in your home, in your office or in <strong>another</strong> place can send and recieve data from other devices. All of them will integrate in a network of things like alarm clock, kettle, coffee machine, fridge, washing machine, air conditioner, thremometer, floor heating system, lighting systems and others. So what <strong>is</strong> the reason? They can cooperate and work more <strong>efficientLY</strong> than before. Your alarm clock will wake you up at 7 am and your coffee machine will know that fact and will make a coffee for you at 7.10 am, but your floor heating system will predict your awakening and will heat the floor to a comfortable temperature. <strong>Does this sound</strong> cool? Yeah! Do you want this? Yeah! Is this a future? No, this is reality, such things are possible today. It was the simplest example of IoT, the technology is developing now and I hope they will expand a purpose and functionality. The main purpose of IoT now is "a smart house" and <strong>it's becoming  </strong>very popular <strong>nowadays</strong>, even if you<strong> don't have a</strong> smart fridge you absolutly have something like smart watch or fitness tracker, don't you? I know you do. These are IoT devices and they become more and more popular, but how to advertise it? It's simple, you just need to demonstrate <strong>its</strong> "skills" and crowds will  wish them immediately because it's a trend now and society wants something intelligent and smart. It <strong>takes time</strong> to develop this industry but I feel a potential in that.<br><br><strong>Outro</strong><br>It's not a plan to seize the World, it's not a plan to control everything, it's just a new stage of technology which is logical consiquence or modern requirements. It's not necessary to fight with that, it's pointless, we need to use it wisely and properly so that our lives become more convenient and comfortable.  </div>]]></description>
