Hello

Your 1st Planning Sheets are due this Week!

UNIT 1 - Planning Sheets

• You were asked to build a survey. You do not have to share the results of the survey with your WGL unless you want feedback on the survey.
• Make certain you find 4 competitors and list them as you will need this information for Break-Even Analysis.
• List the secondary sources of information that you plan on using and why you think they will help you identify your ideal client.
• List your tasks and make certain that the completion dates are before you return to class.
