This document outlines a business plan for a student job platform called Studentstry. The plan includes an elevator pitch describing how the platform helps students find flexible jobs to earn money for personal projects. It then discusses the management team, technology prototype, marketing strategy, financial projections, and exit strategy. Key points include projecting profitability starting in year 2, an internal rate of return of 135%, and exploring an eventual exit via acquisition or IPO.
3. ELEVATOR PITCH: PROBLEM-CUSTOMERS-SOLUTION
“ Studentstry helps students solve not being able to have their
own money for personal projects by providing a way to get a job
suited to their time constraints that is better than regular job search
platforms because it has easier access and presents offers with more
variety“
