Organizational Needs are Met

• We will be targeting colleges
• Colleges will benefit because their graduating
  students will become employed because of our
  training
• This will make the college look good and bring in
  more prospective students

10
Plan of Action

• During the school year there is a high
  possibility students will not approach our
  offices. During this time team Shockwave will
  travel throughout the state of Illinois to
  various small schools to give presentations to
  graduating seniors. Shockwave will stay for the
  appropriate amount of time for the school while
  considering our profit.

11
Plan of Action

• Shockwave puts a high importance on persons being
  able to successfully follow their career goals.
  So for those persons who did not attend our
  program during summer sessions Shockwave will
  travel back on the first week of every month to
  run sessions again. We plan for there to be an
  abundance of clients who will consider scheduling
  sessions during this time.

12
Plan of Action

• - Due to Shockwaves close and personal team, we
  are able to be flexible to clients schedules for
  a smooth and profitable program.
