Budgeting

Sales Forecast: We expect to sell 10,000 units in the first year, 20,000 units in the second year, and 30,000 units in the third year. We anticipate that our sales will increase as our brand becomes more well-known, and as more people become health-conscious.

Budget Plan

  • Manufacturing Cost: Each fitness tracker is expected to cost $30 to manufacture, which covers overhead, labour costs, and material costs.
  • Marketing and Advertising: 20% of our revenue will go towards marketing and advertising. This will cover influencer marketing, email marketing, social media marketing, and both online and offline ad campaigns.
  • Sales and Distribution: 10% of our revenue will be set aside for sales and distribution, which covers the price of product handling, shipping, and storage. We will also set aside money for collaborations with brick-and-mortar stores and online marketplaces.
  • Research and Development: In order to continuously enhance our product and incorporate new features, we will devote 15% of our revenue to research and development.
  • General and Administrative Expenses: 10% of our revenue will be set aside to pay for general and administrative costs like salaries, rent, and utilities.
  • Contingency Fund: We'll set aside 5% of sales as a contingency fund to pay for unforeseen costs and maintain the company's financial stability.
  • Profit Margin: We will aim for a 30% profit margin on each unit sold.

Based on these estimates, our budget plan for the first year would look like this:
