Background:After graduating with a B.S. in Management, you have been working for TLG for three years as an assistant consultant for Winnie James and Ralph Anders, senior consultants who jointly direct the commercial trades and service industry consulting division for TLG.

Winnie and Ralph have assigned you to assist them in advising their new client, a start-up commercial cleaning company named Green Clean. Connor, Ali, Madison, and Sam are all successful business owners who are friends or professional acquaintances in the business community. The group decided that a commercial cleaning business would be a good fit for their professional experiences, skills, and interests.They agreed to pursue the possibility of launching a Maryland-based "green" commercial cleaning service business named Green Clean (GC). he group plans to purchase cleaning supplies from Environmental Pro, Inc. (EPI), a mid-sized manufacturer incorporated in a nearby state, that produces chemical-free environmentally-friendly cleaning products.The four are familiar with the corporation as each has purchased EPI products for their respective current businesses.The four friends intend to resell certain EPI products directly to GC clients.The GC group plans to market and advertise their services and re-sell EPI products through print, television, radio media, and via internet sales.

GC will be headquartered in a local shopping center.GC headquarters will include private business management offices, a reception area, and conference meeting and planning space to which potential and existing customers will be invited to discuss proposals for cleaning jobs, cleaning products, and to complete contracts for sales and services.The business space also will be open to the public to collect information and inquire about GC services, examine cleaning supply displays, and view photos and exhibits from ongoing and past commercial jobs. The four has recognized the need for professional business consultants, such as TLG, to guide their start-up for Green Clean.Consequently, the four have hired TLG to advise and guide them through the start-up process for GC. The GC owners are meeting with TLG in final consultations before GC opens business operations.The purpose of these final meetings is to identify the:
