I have not chosen a company for my Business Plan. The company you choose needs to be a rather small company. For example: Sandwich shop or some other company. My dad made a hand held yard weed remover. It was a long steal rod that has a notch in the part the is placed on the weed in the dirt and then kick the steel rod and the weed flies out of the ground. The name of my product is "Kick Stick" my dad was going to market to old ladies and women who do their own lawn. If you need more information I can provide as much as I can or make it up as long as it fits into my Business Plan. I am in the united states and I need the tone of my paper to be writen by an american.
