This presentation should be accompanied by audiovisual aids. The use of PowerPoint slides could be a good alternative.
Another support for our presentation, could be the physical presence of the product that we create as well as some of the elements related to it as, for example, some elements of advertising.
Also, if possible, you should submit a copy of our business plan to each attendee.
We note that our presentation should be a summary of the highlights of our business plan, so it should not last more than 20 minutes. A higher exposure to that time, could lose the interest of attendees.
Our oral presentation does not necessarily follow the same steps that we have developed in the written plan. A good oral presentation could include the following:
* The definition of the project: the first thing we do in our presentation is to explain clearly what our business or product, and to identify what will be its main features, highlighting those features innovative or differentiated.
* Market Analysis: At this point we should point out what our target audience, what are its main features, what our sales forecast and what are some of our key business strategies, highlighting those that will enable us to bring our products to consumers .
* Organization: At this point we should point out who will be responsible for carrying out the project, which will be the structure of the business, what your areas, positions, functions, information systems. At this point we give the impression that our business will be a professional and well organized business.
* Investment of the project: at this point we should note what the investment required for our project, how much our fixed investment amount, how much our investment in intangible assets, how much our working capital, and then point out how much capital available and what we require external financing.
* Evaluation of the project: At this point we have to summarize the results of our financial assessment.
* Conclusions: and finally, at this point we must note the main conclusions we reached in developing the business plan. Among the findings should include the reasons why we have found our business idea attractive, and the reasons why the project is feasible and profitable shows.
By doing our oral presentation, we should not try to tackle it all, we must remember that every bit of detail in the plan should be written so in the oral presentation should highlight only the most important.
We must also remember that our main objective is to create interest in the project, so as in any show, we show security both in ourselves and in our idea.
And finally, one topped our presentation, we invite the audience to ask the questions that we see fit. If individuals know all of our project, we should have no trouble answering any questions.
