Business Plan
Over the next five years, the growth plan for The Pink Lotus Brassiere Boutique includes stronger marketing to build public awareness, addition of a website, community education and engagement, and broadening the selection of bra styles, colors, and sizes for our customers. Our audience includes post masectomy women of color who have survived cancer and are going forward requiring breast prosthetics so having certified staff is imperative to the growth of our business. Fund administrators, grant writers, private funding and investors should award The Pink Lotis Brassiere Boutique the requested funds because our mission includes education to a community of women at a higher risk of having masectomies as a result of cancer delayed treatment. We want to include an education piece for prevention and risk identification, mammogram education, in addition to having the retail store for post operative women. Being nurse owned as well as having a mother that underwent a bilateral masectomy following a battle with breast cancer, our owner, Chauntyse Oglesby,RN, is striving to be a force in her community. With an educated community we have strength. Pink Lotus Brassiere Boutique would appreciate the opportunity to be an imperative part in this journey.

Self Identified Competition
Our top 3 competitors include Expressions of Hope and Renew Boutique and Spa who are both affiated with and located within local Hospitals. Personal Touch Apparel and Spa is a freestanding privately owned business. What makes The Pink Lotus different from our competitors is that we have included an educational component for a high risk population in addition to the retail store. We also have a plan for community engagement and involvement.
