Life's A Pitch - Research

Research

After discussing our business proposal with the rest of my group via facebook, I have started to research some costs for things we might need to consider for our business.

Outline for our proposal

Monthly online competition

Different themes each month

12 winners get selected

We will put their designs on Posters, greeting cards and stickers

We will sell their work online on the website for a limited time only

The research I have gone into is:

How much a website would cost for a business

How much is postage and packaging

How much would prints be from different places and the different paper and quantities.

This is what i found:
