A pirate shop business plan describes the potential of a store that sells novelty items related to pirates – it's a strange market category, but it has experienced a huge surge in public interest. Whether the interest originated with the Disneyland ride decades ago or the hugely popular Johnny Depp films of recent years, the American public's fascination with piracy and pirate “culture†shows no signs of stopping. Pirate costumes, trinkets, and treasure maps are staples of every child birthday and Halloween party from California to Florida. So what do you need in the business plan for a pirate shop? Basically the same contents as any other retail shop will need, with a twist:
• What is the target market for your business?
• What is the demographic makeup of your customer base?
• How many households are there within 15 miles?
• What's the cost of an average item in the sales forecast?
• How will your company acquire its pirate products?
• What competitors are there for you?
Any good pirate plan should include a budget for the loot. How will you allocate your start-up capital? What will the anticipated sales and expenses be? A strategy section for your plan will need to show what marketing channels you'll use most to get customers in the door. Explain the advantages you can wield. Also include a management summary, personnel plan, and a description of how you view the market need. Need professional assistance with your plan? MasterPlans is the company to call.
