Graphics For You Inc. requires funding for the completion of the project. Funds are to be used as follows. Funds will be used as needed for payroll marketing and general operating expenses while product and service sales increase to the point where funding is no longer required.

The most critical cash flow period is in the first six months. An upfront lump sum of $20 twenty thousand dollars is requested to fund the first six months with $20 line of credit for use in the following year if needed. This will provide sufficient funds while also reducing the amount of debt servicing required to repay the loan. The owner’s salary is set at about 50% of the industry standard salary during the first three years.

Sales and Marketing Amount. Funds to be used for printing marketing materials for postage for sending postcards to local area businesses and for targeted online advertising. We expect this initial marketing effort to generate enough customers in the short term that sales of services and logo products will provide the income required to operate the business within the first year. Payroll Amount.

Funds to be used to pay accrued payroll. Full payment of payroll for our one planned employee is critical. Payroll for the owner will be kept as low as possible for the first six months and will gradually increase over the next two years as cash flow allows. By strictly adhering to positive cash flow policy by regulating our highest cost item payroll as best we can our financial plan shows that we should break even by our second year and be profitable in the third year and beyond.

Other Amount. Funds to be used as needed for general office expenses computer hardware and software taxes etc. Graphics For You Inc. already has all of the office equipment hardware and software required to launch the business.
