Funding Usage
Will use the capital to buy components at a less expensive wholesale price in bulk to yield a bigger return. This will also reduce my shipping fees. I can then sell to a demographic that can pay less to get a product they would never be able to afford otherwise.

Business Plan
I need the start up capital, as I am a current business student. The injection of capital would allow me to do multiple builds at a time increasing my productivity. My market is people who cannot afford the nicer PCs for their children and I can offer a better, more capable product for half the cost of the off-the-shelf equivalent. My market is in the Philadelphia/South Jersey market that is spreading through word of mouth. I have one other "helper" that I am teaching to do this to hopefully get this off the ground. I have parents coming to me now for Christmas and want to do something for their kids. I do not have the funding to front all of the requests that I am getting. I can grow this into something bigger with the right support.

Self Identified Competition
Big box stores. Other custom PC builders with deeper pockets. I started this journey during COVID to earn money to help pay for college. It has grown slowly and now I have a strong following from previous customers. It give kids like me access to solid hardware that can get them interested in things other than surfing the internet or gaming. When I deliver the product, I install it with them and do a free software install with some basic training. All of them become interested in the inner working (inside the box) and it piques their technical curiosity. This is my edge. I create one interested customer at a time and they will most likely become more technical, creating their own network of young, successful teens/young adults.
