A Plan For Christian Business Development

By Elena McDowell


When one would want to go into Christian business development, then there are a lot more things to think of as compared to a normal business. First of all, his objectives and purpose would have to be in line with the ideologies of Christianity. Of course in order to do this, he would need a guide that will show him the ropes.

The first thing for one to do is to conceptualize what kind of store he would want to set up. Take note that he should consult his church before he sets up his store to see that if his enterprise would be parallel to Christian values. Some great ideas for stores that target this sort of market would be Bible stores or accessory stores.

Now it is best to first grab some ideas from a local Christian Business paper or journal in order to conceptualize. The reason why one must be up to date with the paper is simply because the paper is filled with trends in the world of Christianity. As long as he is updated with the trends, then he will know what kind of store to open.

Another thing to do in order to get more inspiration would be to research on the internet. Since the internet connects to all parts of the world, then one will have an edge by getting ideas from an international point of view as well. Of course since there are many Christians all over the world, they will be able to give good insights.

Once one has already thought of a good idea for his store, then he may now come up with a good business plan. Like a regular plan, one has to include all of the elements of a good one so that he will be guided accordingly. Included inside the plan are the executive summary, list of partners, the target markets, and of course the budget.

Now the first part would be the executive summary and includes the objective in it. Aside from the objective, he will have to include a short overview on what the industry is like in order to know how to fit in. In a nutshell, it is a birds eye view on the operations of the store.

As for the partners, this would most likely be the members or the heads of the churches around the area. Since the store owner would be needing some funds, then maybe the church would be able to help him. The owner may also have other partners like friends or other people.

Included in the plan also would be an in depth analysis on the target market of his store. Now the specific demographics should the age group and social class of this market segment that is targeted. Of course other demographics are needed like the lifestyle and other things.

The final step would be to make the budget. Take note that the budget for the Christian business development project is very important because without it, the store will not be made. Also, never forget to make sure that the purpose of making the store is the same of the ideals of Christianity.
