sample answer

The company I am thinking of is run by a friend of mine. We met through a

running club. She makes very high quality bespoke cookies. The biscuits

themselves are delicious, but actually it isn’t really so much about the food,

it’s about the way she designs and presents them. She will do any design or

theme and create special shaped and decorated biscuits to order. So, for

example, if you have a friend who is celebrating a special birthday, and they

love cycling and rock climbing, she might make up a box of biscuits including

one in the shape of a bike, some mountains and ropes to represent abseiling

equipment. She does a lot of wedding favours – small biscuits with a personal

design incorporating the initials of the bride and groom on e.g. the number

plate of a classic car perhaps. She even did a special order for me. A friend of

mine had a riding accident and broke her arm very badly. To cheer her up I asked

my biscuit making friend to make a very special box. It featured a cartoon

version of the horse she had been riding; the back of an ambulance; a syringe –

to represent the morphine injections the paramedics had issued, and a

representation of my friend with her arm in plaster. It was brilliant!

As to why the business is successful, I think it’s for a number of reasons.

The actual cost of ingredients is quite modest so the overheads aren’t huge, so

my friend is able to add value through her art work. She meets a niche need, I

don’t know of any similar businesses in the region so there is not too much

competition. She can also send her biscuits through the post, and they both

travel and keep well, so she can supply all over the world – in theory at least,

a limitless market. It helps that she is good at what she does so repeat orders

keep on coming. However, whilst that explains how she keeps in profit, for me

what makes the business a success, is that she has found a way of working for

herself that generates an income, but gives her a really good work life balance.

She can work flexibility and take time off when she needs to. If she wants to go

for a run in the morning before work and start late she can; if she thinks the

lovely weather means she’d be better off working on her allotment she can do

that too – although of course the work has to be done later. It is fantastic

that she has made a success of her business idea, and the company has grown

enough that she is also able to employ a part-time assistant to help her in busy

spells as well.

Setting up the business was an act of faith, there were no guarantees when

she started out, but she has worked hard, built up and retained a good

reputation, and her products always raise a smile of delight in the recipient.

Her main problem is that customers complain her biscuits look to good to eat.

This frustrates her, they are made for eating,’ keep a photo eat the biscuits’

is her advice, and she should know, she baked them herself!
