Writing 5: First Draft,company summary

For this post, I will be giving an update on my writing class activity. I will be sharing my first official writing for the first part of my business plan, focusing on the company summary.  This is the link:  Business plan draft Company summary In my previous post , I showed the breakdown of my research process which is how I plan to complete my project .The company summary was the first part and I tried to include the necessary details by using a template I got from Score as I mentioned in my last post.  This company summary included the Ebifame's Afro Snack  Mission & Vision : By reading miscellaneous samples of different company missions and visions on   Blue Leadz , a digital marketing agency , I was able to differentiate between the vision and mission of an enterprise.  'Basically, a mission statement defines your cause – something you want to accomplish. A vision statement defines what you want to pursue for your cause – it represents the futu

Writing 4: The voice

For this post, I will be giving an update on my writing class activity . I will be showing a sample of my first draft as well as establishing the point of view of my project. Direction When we were giving this task,the first thing i did was to look for a template for my business plan. This is because using a template which would be like a  form of guide for my writing and i found one on  Score   , a website that assist young and growing entrepreneurs .In my previous post ,I posted a table where i analysed my fruit company structure . So i reused that same structure for my fruit but i made a few necessary changes. I know my project idea is to create a snack business and that is what the template should explain but being that it was my first draft i decided to leave it that way to show it was an initial plan.

Writing 3:Review of a text

For this post, I will be discussing the activity giving in my writing class  and a brief summary of what I did. Review of Successful business plan in a week The text I chose to review is called Successful business plan in a week(Maitland,2007). I really liked the idea of the book and it broke down the business planning process a little bit more.The book shows -more like summarizes-how to write a business plan in a week and gives you different planning aspects that can be done on different days that is Sunday-Saturday . I honestly wasn't interested in reading the whole book especially because the writer already made it easier by providing information of the intended discussion at the being of each chapters and providing summary of the what was discussed at the end of the chapter.Due to this i only picked out chapters that I was interested in the most which was Sunday , thursday and friday and they discussed Understanding the Business plan,Adding the appendices and submi

Writing 2 : Feedback

For this post , I will be posting Bettina's feedback on my Journal . She made quite a lot of helpful comments that i need to take note of.I am not going to specifically point out the areas which she corrected but i'm going give a brief summary of the places that i need tot be corrected. For the journal entry ,I thought it was usually written in  first person which is why i wrote mine in that  point of view  and Bettina agreed .A constant mistake i make which bettina has pointed it on various occasion is that my  punctuations  are usually improperly placed which could potentially confuse the reader.I am still trying t work on that as well. Also, there were some extra things i wanted to say but i knew it would be hard to so i put them in a bracket and in italics to show how i felt in the background of that specific scenario. My word choices was something i was already concerned about and when bettina pointed out my use of some words and grammatical structure can be better,

Writing class 2: Journal

For this post,I will be showing you my journal.In class bettina gave us a ask to write a 5 day task journal . Since my project is to write a business plan, I thought it would be better to write around that subject area as well as express my feeling while doing that.I honestly used to love writing down what i feel that is why i made sure to be completely honest in this task.You can find it here :  My Journal The first entry was titled Business Plan basics . In this entry ,I read the first chapter of a book called  ‘Business plans made easy ,it’s not as hard as you think' by Mark henricks and John riddle  and briefly discussed the significance of it to both me and my project. Towards the end of that day,i wrote about my feeling and how i felt rabout the whole project The second entry was title Change of major project idea . At point ,i didnt was to move forward with the project and i expressed that.I also introduced a potential idea I might do instead which was to analyze and al
