Visionz Event Styling by Marissa K | Application Preview
Visionz Event Styling, led by Marissa K., is seeking government grants to expand their event planning and decoration business. The funding will be utilized to enhance inventory, including items such as a candy cart, additional draping poles, updated table linens, and rental tables and chairs. Marissa also plans to acquire a Cricut machine for creating custom centerpieces and refurbish her storage shed for better organization of her supplies. Additionally, a small trailer is needed for transportation to various event sites.
The long-term vision for the business includes establishing a dedicated venue that offers all-in-one package deals combining venue rental with decoration services. Marissa notes a significant opportunity in Waco, Texas, as the area has a limited number of affordable venues that also provide decoration options. With over 24 years of experience decorating events, she is passionate about making this business her full-time endeavor.
In terms of competition, Marissa acknowledges a few local event planners, including a stay-at-home mom and two businesses already operating their own venues. However, she believes her unique design perspective and the incorporation of her sister's makeup artist services will set her apart. Marissa aims to offer distinctive event experiences that are currently lacking in the market, highlighting her commitment to quality and innovation in party planning.

Business Plan
I would love to have my own venue. I would offer all in 1 package deals. Can rent venue and also have decorations included. I live in Waco, Texas and the town is growing. One thing our town doesn't have a lot of are venues to host parties at affordable rates and to include decorations. I have decorated parties since my son was a baby. He is now 24. This is my life.

Self Identified Competition
One is a stay at home mom already and she does fabulous work. It is time consuming and if you have the time, then you can put your all into it. Another is already in business with their own venue. So they have a head start. Last one is same. Has his own venue and offer decorating as well. I just would not choose that part of town. I have my own taste of design. I know what I would love to offer has not even been brought here yet. I would be one of the first to have venue and to include some of the best details when it comes to party decorating. My sister is a make up artist. I would also include her services in party packages.
