# Cedar Cycle — business plan example

Prepared fictional Kona example. Not a live AI run, customer story, verified demand, or approved financial/legal advice.

## Business concept
Mobile bicycle servicing at employer sites, with employees paying for bounded service visits.

## Customer and problem hypothesis
Office managers may support a scheduled service day for employees who find workshop visits inconvenient. Neither paid demand nor repeat usage has been established.

## Business model and supplied assumptions
Cedar Cycle is a fictional mobile bicycle-service concept. Unit price USD 100; variable cost USD 40/visit; monthly fixed cost USD 2,000; opening cash USD 10,000. Downside/base/upside volume: 30/40/50 visits per month. All figures are prepared assumptions. The simplified model excludes tax, debt, capex, payment timing, and changing capacity costs.

## Route to validation
1. Interview office managers about access, scheduling, insurance, and employee communication.
2. Agree a small paid pilot with a defined scope and service-day rules.
3. Record bookings, cancellations, service time, variable cost, and repeat requests.
4. Review contribution and access constraints before committing to expansion.

## Evidence register
Customer observations: unavailable. Paid pilot results: unavailable. Supplier quotes: unavailable. The SBA planning guide is a method reference, not evidence of demand for this fictional business.

## Decision and review
Approve only a bounded pilot after verifying access, insurance, costs, and service responsibilities. Proposed owner: operator. Review date: choose before the pilot.

## How to revise
Replace assumptions with your own facts. Keep unresolved items visible, update the accompanying model, and verify legal and financial conclusions before external use.
