BUSINESS
PLAN
The company plans on taking on debt in the form of a five-year loan, and has no plans for
additional debt as growth will be financed mainly through cash flow. Our plan includes assumptions
of 100% sales on credit, and sufficient cash on-hand at start-up to prevent any problems with cash
flow.
1.1. Objectives
125 Home Health Care patients served by the end of first year.
12 Personal Injury Case Management Clients served by the end of first year.
Effective collaboration with other community professionals (physicians, hospitals, and other
organizations)
1.3 Mission
Our values are worth emulating. ESAJR Health Services strives to offer excellent and
affordable home health care and community-based social services to individuals and families of
Negros Island Region.
It is our goal to employ competent, caring, and well-trained individuals who are responsive to
the needs of our patients, their families, and the communities we serve. Each staff member will meet
the educational and training requirements for the services they provide. We encourage and support
continued education of each service provider. In turn, our agency will provide staff with competitive

suffers.
4.1 Market Segmentation
The population base in Negros Island Region is aging, and more individuals are opting to stay in their
own homes longer and return home following hospitalization, rather than proceeding to a nursing
home. Our primary market segment includes those patients -- typically in an older age bracket -- who
require health care services by home health nursing staff. These patients may also require other
home health services, such as social work, in order to access needed community resources.
Our secondary market will be those individuals who have suffered a personal injury and require case
management services to assist them in addressing medical, financial, and employment issues.

4.2 Target Market Segment Strategy
Because our agency specializes in home health care and community-based social services, we will
focus on those market segments where we know our services are most needed. Focusing on those
market segments that require only home-based services will greatly decrease overhead, since
additional office space will not be required.
Within each area, we have two target markets: the actual client, and the regional physicians, health
care facilities, attorneys and insurance companies who refer them to our services.

7.3 Projected Profit and Loss
Our projected profit and loss is shown in the following table, with sales increasing throughout
the three years of the plan, and profits are notable even for the start-up phase of this business. per
month
We are projecting growth and total annual sales very conservatively, with high projected expenses.
Our cost of sales is relatively low, as this is a service agency and the primary costs involved in
providing the services are those related to payroll. The costs of sales reflects the cost of mileage
reimbursement to employees, because the services we provide are home- and community-based and
require travel to and from service locations.
The Profit and Loss table also contains our expenses for independently contracted physical,
occupational and speech therapists, as well as the owner's and Clinical Director's after-tax draws.
