The sweepstakes cafe business plan should be able to convince a banker or investor that there are strong financial returns to be had by running a small lottery-based business, which means using market research to your best possible advantage. It's no secret that gambling is immensely popular (and, oftentimes, addictive), which you can capitalize on, but what sort of people are most likely to patronize your location? Based on the intended lot to occupy or build on, who lives nearby and what is their disposable income like on a yearly basis? The plan should answer these questions as well as:
• The target market profile and strategy
• The annual spending per household on entertainment
• The market need
• The closest competing businesses
• The margins you can expect
The sweepstakes cafe business plan will require a full financial pro forma which includes an assumptions table that outlines your user acquisition and spend rates as well as a working basis for your ongoing expenses (not just rent but overhead items like machine maintenance, paper for payment slips, Internet access and so forth). The pro forma also need a break-even point clearly identified and a profit and loss and cash flow statement for each of at least three years. Add in a balance sheet, personnel schedule and a sensitivity analysis, and you've got a complete financial model. Need assistance with the financials or the market research?
