Introduction

This business proposal presentation is the key assignment for this course. It is worth more points than any other assignment and you are expected to give the same effort as if you were presenting to senior management in your company or a potential investor in your own venture. The goal of this assignment is to present in written or audio/visual form a clear and convincing business decision supported by effective data analysis.

Do the following:

  1. Create a compelling written report or audio/visual presentation (video/slideshow) that effectively and persuasively communicates your proposed business decision. Support your proposed decision with effective data analysis and a clear justification for why it is an appropriate decision. Choose a style, length, and format for your presentation that would be effective in your intended business environment.
    Keep in mind that your instructor and classmates are your audience and will give you a rating.

    Include, at least, the following elements for full credit:
    - Executive Summary (high level description and outcome of the project)
    - Project Objectives
    - Data collection strategy
    - Data analysis results
    - Conclusions and Proposed decision

  2. Document the source of all information used in your report. Use effective technical writing and public presentation skills.

  3. By the "Due Date" -- Submit your DDDM Business Proposal or a link to the presentation (video).
