The
Industry
The
Industry is tied directly to the health of
the U.S. Economy and consumer disposable
income. The CBO
anticipates that the current recession,
which started in December 2007, ended in the
second quarter of 2009, making it the
longest recession since World War II. Such
growth compares to a 2.6% real rate of
decline during 2009, the depths of the
recession. The swing in performance from
2009 to 2010 was the widest since 1983, a
period of 27 years. The increase in
real GDP in 2010 primarily reflected
positive contributions from private
inventory investment, exports, personal
consumption expenditures (PCE),
nonresidential fixed investment, and federal
government spending. Severe economic
downturns often sow the seeds of robust
recoveries. During a slump in economic
activity, consumers defer purchases,
especially for housing and durable goods,
and businesses postpone capital spending and
try to cut inventories. Once demand in the
economy picks up, the disparity between the
desired and actual stocks of capital assets
and consumer durable goods widens quickly,
and spending by consumers and businesses can
accelerate rapidly. Although the CBO expects
that the current recovery will be spurred by
that dynamic, in all likelihood, the
recovery will also be dampened by a number
of factors. Those factors include slow wage
and employment growth, high unemployment as
well as a continued sluggish housing market.
Current
expectations by the CBO are for real GDP
growth of 1.7% to as much as 2.25% in 2012
and as much as 4.1% in 2014.

Projections and Revisions, Note 2014 is a
conference board projection see, http://www.conference-board.org/data/usforecast.cfm
The continued rebound in GDP will also affect real disposable
income growth. Real DPI increased 1.8 percent in 2010, compared with
an increase of 0.5 percent in 2009.
Adjusted
for inflation, per-capita disposable incomes have been struggling
for the past two years and are currently at about the level first
achieved in November of 2007. Current expectations are for only 1/2
of 1% disposable income growth in 2013 with a solid 1.9% in 2014.
Most
of 2011 saw a slow decline in incomes, a trend that began reversing
in November of 2012 . Real
GDP growth was approximately 2.0 percent in
2012 and current expectations by the CBOE
are 1.7 percent in 2013 with the economy
gaining momentum in the second half of 2013.
It then assumes an average growth rate of
4.1 percent for the years of 2014 to 2017.
Inflation is expected to be modest at
approximately 2% in 2013 about the same as
2012. The unemployment rate is assumed to be
mostly unchanged from current levels or
slightly better going into the end of the
year. We do not reach “full employment”
for several years, with the forecasted
unemployment rate being 5.6 percent by 2017.
With
less uncertainty by businesses and investors
as to tax policy this year with rising
expectations that split government in
Washington will slow the explosion in
government spending the economy looks poised
for sustained growth as businesses and
investors get back to the business of
growing and expanding the bottom line.
Starting a small business is
always risky, and the chance of success is
slim. According to the U.S. Small Business
Administration, over 50% of small businesses
fail in the first year and 95% fail within
the first five years.
Whether you are
starting a new Boutique,
are looking to raise
additional capital to expand your currently
profitable Store , or looking to evaluate
and value your Store to sell, current
statistics prove that you will do much
better with a business plan than without.
According to Dunn and Bradstreet the primary
reasons for failure vary, but all of the
reasons come under the category of poor
planning. You are a part of one of the
largest Industries in the United States and
one of the most competitive Industries in
the world. Your management decisions will
decide whether your Store survives or
thrives in the face of increased
competition. The most important benefit of a
business plan is that it sets the stage for
the future of your business as you want it
to be positioned in the marketplace. A
business plan will make it easy for your
banker to take action as he/she gains
insight into the details of your Company and
the goals that you have outlined. Potential
investors can review your plan and decide
whether or not to make an investment based
upon the risk. You will benefit most as you
study and gain detailed insight into your
own operations. Updating and constantly
reviewing your plan will give you more
insight as both a manager and decision
maker.
TIME IS MONEY...We
have estimated that it takes an average of
100 hours to research, and write a
comprehensive business plan within any
Industry. Creating and compiling the five
year financial plan and forecasts including
5 years of budgets, income statements,
balance sheets, cash flow analysis, and key
financial ratio analysis can take more than
20 hours of work by you or your accountant.
Now consider sitting down in front of your
computer to edit and fill in the details of
an already written and organized sample
Apparel business plan and outline. Whether
you are starting a small clothing boutique
or are looking for expansion capital to open
your second Outlet, or want to sell your
multi Store chain, you will be able to edit
this plan into your own.
