Tina's Indecisive Saturday

What would she do on that Saturday? Tina'd been walking around her apartment. In the very early morning she was awaken by her " Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid " alarm from her Android. She had her breakfast with her head in the cloud, wondered what the day was, to realize it was Saturday.

Walking around from the bedroom to the sitting room then the dining room, scratching her head. Sat down on the sofa in front of her TV. Switched the TV on, came onto the screen something that made her jump . She stared at her TV screen with eyes widened then she sighed. She had her asset somewhere else. That was quite interesting, as she thought. Just the other day she and her friend Edward, a business consultant, talked about banking in relation with her plan.

As she got up from the sofa, she thought to put aside this matter for a while, it was a resting day. She picked up her phone and dial Chris. She asked Chris if she would be able to accompany her strolling the street that day, but Chris said she was already booked to make-up a bride for the evening.

Tina sighed as she hung up. Okay, she went to the kitchen, helped herself with a bite and browsed the Internet through her phone, searching for news on celebrities. Suddenly she spotted an advertisement about a rock concert which was to be held on that very evening. She checked on the availability of the entrance-ticket. Luckily, she got one bought on-line.

Tina got herself ready for an evening alone, without companion.

Tina's feasibility study into business (2)

It was a bright day, Tina started deriving lists of the matters to be discussed with her friend, Edward or Eddy, who worked as a business consultant. She called him on the phone and told him briefly about the matters, subject and objective of their discussion regarding her plan.

Edward suggested that they should meet and Tina invited him to her residence located somewhere in the Cengkareng area not very far from the  international airport. It was a quite classy apartment.

Tina prepared everything, including some refreshments. And she stepped into some comfortable outfit




She said to herself dressing up like this in the hot big city of Jakarta would be very comfy. Edward came half an hour before three o'clock in the afternoon bringing a prospectus. That day Tina started her plan.

Tina's feasibility study into business (1)

Tina was someone who had gotten so much into fashion business. At the beginning, she did a drop-shipping type of business. She collected orders and demanded a certain amount of money as a down-payment from her clients then went to collect the merchandise from the gross-seller.

She did this for quite sometime until she was able to collect a big sum of money that later she placed it as her capital to have a shop of her own. Before she got herself the shop, she did some studies about where she should get her shop, how it should be, what equipment should she get to furnish her fashion shop. And where to start. Should she have her shop in a hyper-commercial center or in a luxurious residential area where lived the rich and the jet-sets. The she decided pick the hyper-commercial center. She surfed the Internet for that space, then she decided the Grand Indonesia Mall. because she saw that it was in center of the Metropolitan Jakarta, where traffic was vast and had easy access. And also, there were not many tenants yet.

When she reached back home with the Mall in her mind, she started thinking the financial side of everything, and her brains turned around the Saturn planet in confusion. Something struck her mind, one of her ex-classmates in college! She grabbed her address-book and she found his numbers. This friend of hers worked in a company dealing with financial plans. She got him and she told him about her plan. Then they agreed for a meeting. When they met, her friend, before referring to his own company, suggested to her some other companies that he knew like Price Waterhouse and Coopers or Ameriprise Financial. And then her friend handed her his prospectus and quotations and a couple of module booklet for her to study.

Tina thanked her friend and promised him to let him know as she'd come to decision.

Chic 



Those above are Tina's options, which among the three type of shop she would set up. The chic type, sprotif lux or the practical which she could make a co-tenancy with person who handled franchise. The last one could be her choice. Her clients could take a little longer time and at the same time could enjoy some drinks and snacks while discussing about fashion with her.
