MLA Business Proposal - Logo, Business Card, Letterhead (300 points)

YOUR NEW BUSINESS:   (WHAT IMAGE DOES IT HAVE ON THE STREET?)

Read the following article:  http://www.entrepreneur.com/article/71902

Create a LOGO using photos, drawing, or any other medium.  Watch the video about why a LOGO is important (Click Here). 
We can photograph your work and use it for creating stationary, flyers,
business cards and other documents.  Tomorrow I will list specific
instructions for creating Business Cards in MS Word and a Product Flyer
in MAC Pages.



You can use the Free Logo Designer on LogoGarden / Vista Print to help
you come up with an idea, but you will not be able to download your
creation.  There are literally hundreds of other free websites to help you.  Pick one!  Once you have designed it on LogoGarden / VistaPrint, try to
use a drawing program or PowerPoint to recreate your logo.  Once you
have created it and saved it as a PICTURE, you should be able to use it
to create all kinds of Business Documents for your new company.  We will
focus on a creating a Business Card below.

LOGO PROJECT:

You must create a LOGO for your new company.  This will be the symbol of
your company and product line.  Think about what was mentioned in the
video you saw above.  This LOGO will appear on all of your Business
Documents and should reflect your Brand, Company, Products, and
Ideas/Ideals.  Save a copy of this logo online.





 Business Card Project:

     Using MS PowerPoint,  use the Business Card Template below to create a design for your Business Card. 
Make the business cards have the same design elements and LOGO as the Sales Flyer
you will create.  You should use the contact information
of the School (see below) and your name, title (CEO, President,
whatever), your email, and your weebly website account.  Be creative and
save your final draft and email it to me.

Sales Flyer Project:

   Using a Sales Flyer Template below in MS PowerPoint you
will create a 1-page Sales Flyer for
your business.  Include the business name, your weebly website, and your
email.  Use
our school's address and contact information (listed below).  Make sure
you are creating a flyer that will use at least one picture, 2-3
paragraphs of text, and some design elements that are the same as other
Business Documents you will be using.  When you are finished, email the
flyer to me at
hscribnercaa@gmail.com.

Rubrics for the Flyer, Logo and Business Card will be posted in the next few days!!

 Once you have completed the MLA Business Proposal, you will need to
create a 3-5 slide presentation for your business.  You must present
your business idea to the class as if we are investors and you need us
to loan you the start up money to get things going.  Tell us why, in a
short presentation, we should invest in your company over all the other
projects in the room.  Be creative and have fun.



PLEASE SUBMIT YOUR LOGO, BUSINESS CARD, AND SALES FLYER BY EMAIL AS ATTACHMENT!  THE BEST WAY IS TO DOWNLOAD YOUR FILE FROM GOOGLE DRIVE AS A JPEG PICTURE FILE AND ATTACH IT TO AN EMAIL TO ME.   DO NOT SHARE THEM!  THEY SHOULD BE SUBMITTED IN JPEG FORMAT ONLY FOR CREDIT!



Good Luck!!
