Four Seasons of Happiness | Application Preview
Four Seasons of Happiness is seeking government grant funding to help repay loans and purchase inventory that suffered due to decreased sales during the COVID-19 pandemic. The business plans to enhance its social media presence and organize local sales events in order to boost sales and expand its inventory options.
In the grant application, the owner emphasizes their commitment to providing affordable products and creating a fun shopping experience that fosters community connections. Despite achieving $100,000 in sales in the first year, the onset of the pandemic severely impacted revenue, making it difficult to recover. The owner also highlights the challenges posed by larger boutique competitors who offer a wider variety of products.
The competitive advantage of Four Seasons of Happiness lies in its focus on affordability, aimed at helping middle-class customers access quality items that enhance their confidence. The live sale presence is designed to be engaging and welcoming, promoting a positive environment for building relationships among shoppers. Approval of this funding would support the business's goal of revitalizing sales and contributing to the community.

Business Plan
More social media presence and local sales events. Increasing inventory options I am a small business that has been working out of my home in the evening and weekend trying to make a difference. First year I sold 100,000 in sales and covid hit and it’s been a struggle to regain my sales. I am dedicated to giving my customers affordable items and present a fun shopping experience giving people the opportunity to meet new people and form new relationships

Self Identified Competition
Large boutique owners that have the advantage to provide a wider selection of products. Took out business loan right before covid to increase product and covid decreased sales and I sat on inventory. I have affordable product to give the middle class an opportunity to have nice items to help them build confidence and a live sale presence that is fun and inviting to meet new people to promote a positive perspective.
