Conclusion
We believe that the plan for our business idea will be a success because we think that students should have the right to express themselves in a unique and a special way. We sense that our business will be successful because being young teenagers, we go through numerous phases and if we see something of interest to us or a popular item, most teenagers are likely to go out and buy that for themselves. Therefore we feel that if we start up our business about air brushing t-shirts then students are able to customize the way they want, a lot of people would buy these shirts, thus leading to even more students buying because it may end up being popular.
