DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION
Example of a BUSINESS PLAN for an online furniture business
Online retail is reaching the next stage, shaping opportunities in the home decoration industry for start-ups that change the rules of the game
With an investment of EUR 100 k, Company X will launch an online home decoration brand targeting EUR 12.5 m revenues in year 5
We have a strong team with the business knowledge, experience and contacts to make Company X a success
Our target customer is a 40+ year old woman with a passion for classical interior design
Her home is her castle and she is constantly looking for high-quality decoration items with a ?story? to create a warm and cozy family home
She loves to shop at small boutiques, but these are quite expensive, too far away and in the end the quality is not what she hoped for
Traditional home decoration retail needs breakthrough business model innovation to overcome a challenging industry situation
As an online brand, operating from Poland, Company X is able to offer high quality home decoration items at attractive prices
By selling under our own brand, we can differentiate our products, have complete freedom in price setting and exploit any trend inspired on the past
All operations will be organized in Poland ? the combination of high skills, low wages and short lead times ensures quality at low cost
We attract customers through online marketing, inspire them via our online magazine, retain them through our blog and sell to them in our webshop
We will ship our products, packaged as gifts, from our warehouse in Poland directly to our customers in Western Europe
We will start selling in the Netherlands ? Main growth priorities are the UK and Germany where we can build up scale at relatively attractive margins
By adding one country per year, we can target a market of 10 m women with an interest in classical design that amounts to EUR 900 m
As the most important costs are variable the downside is limited ? we need to sell 450 items per quarter to break-even
First projections show revenues around EUR 12.5 m in year 5, with net profits of EUR 2.6 m
Key Performance Indicators will be closely monitored ? we know where and how to take action if results are below projections
Through our blog and marketing campaign we have already established contact with >500 potential customers and learned what their needs are
We are on schedule to launch September 2010 ? next steps are to contract suppliers, develop a full webshop & webmagazine and secure funding
We are looking for a private investor that invests EUR 100 k for 40% of equity to finance inventory, working capital and investments in the website

"I have used Flevy services for a number of years and have never, ever been disappointed. As a matter of fact, David and his team continue, time after time, to impress me with their willingness to assist and in the real sense of the word. I have concluded in fact that it is not at all just a repository of documents/resources but, in the way that David and his team manage the firm, it is like dealing with consultants always ready to assist, advise and direct you to what you really need, and they always get it right.
I am an international hospitality accomplished senior executive who has worked and lived during the past 35 years in 23 countries in 5 continents and I can humbly say that I know what customer service is, trust me. Aside from the great and professional service that Flevy's team provide, their wide variety of material is of utmost great quality, professionally put together and most current. Well done Flevy, keep up the great work and I look forward to continue working with you in the future and to recommend you to a variety of colleagues around the world." – Roberto Pelliccia, Senior Executive in International Hospitality
