Many don’t have the information to create a checklist for launching a business. Business plan examples can be helpful so we’ve included our Launching A Business Checklist that will include our moves step-by-step. Hope it helps!
Starting something special, not just starting something
-
A movement starts because of the social habits of friendships and the strong ties between close acquaintances.
-
It grows because of the habits of a community and the weak ties that hold neighborhoods and clans together.
-
It endures because the movement’s leaders give participants new habits that create a fresh sense of identity and a feeling of ownership. The movement allows participants to find and better themselves.

Business Plan Examples
In order to bring equality to the music industry, we will start by creating a community of like-minded creators and music lovers who believe the hip-hop and music industry need to change.
Our target demographic covers –
- Skills – Navigating, growing within, or simply learning about the music and hip-hop industry.
- Passion – Creating music, becoming a successful artist, and finding new music from underrated artists while supporting other small artists.
- Interests – Growth hacks, industry info, new music, new musicians, innovations in music, and the music industry.
- Beliefs – Artists deserve to get paid, music should help people, and artists need to continue innovating and evolving.
- Values – Good music and the people making it.
Let’s start with the first step.
We will create a community around a newsletter for artists, musicians, and music industry professionals, then provide them with a product.
There are many creators utilizing platforms like YouTube and Podcasts attempting to help aspiring artists, musicians, and industry professionals create their own success in this extremely unbalanced industry. They are helping but that YouTube video or podcast audio is where they stop. We will do it better by creating a newsletter that provides subscribers information on how to grow in the industry directly from the minds of experienced professionals driven, by interviews and podcasts of the highest quality in both content and production. Once our community is of a significant size we will provide them with a product.
The business plan & best way to describe it –
We help struggling artists, musicians, and industry professionals succeed in the industry by –
- Providing them information directly from experienced professionals.
- Providing them with a product that will directly impact their success.
The marketing plan & clear benefits –
- Taking away the hassle of the search and allowing more free time.
- Taking away the uncertainty of a questionable resource.
- Our information will bring subscribers more love and acceptance from their community, and allow them to make more money when applied.
Prior to launching, we will have a pre-launch – a short season to begin giving previews and building buzz through internet campaigns. Movies start previews a year in advance that grow in intensity and complexity until it is time to drop the product. This created eagerness for the product to arrive.
