This campaign is intended to raise funding to help start up our company and build a music production studio. This studio will be specifically located in the underrepresented community of Springfield Massachusetts. With the studio, we plan to provide professional recording for artists as well as mixing/mastering services. All funding raised will contribute to the development of the company. This includes obtaining an LLC, and space to build the studio. In addition, the funding raised will go towards any construction necessary, musical equipment, and employee salaries.
Many people within this community face hardship and adversity as they lack access to various resources. Furthermore, there are not many spaces where people in these communities can go to be creative. However, with this studio, we will be able to provide an outlet for individuals in underrepresented to be creative in a safe and comforting environment.
$3,333 in funding is necessary to get this business off the ground. However, even if this goal is not reached we will be grateful for any donation that is received. Nonetheless, a perk is available for a few lucky donators. This perk consists of a care package and in this care package, there will goodies/treats as well as other miscellaneous items. In addition, this care package will include a free “Misfit Vibes” shirt. If this is not enough of an incentive just think about the communities of people you will be helping!
Our project is extremely valuable as it will provide opportunities for those in underrepresented communities to be creative. This includes but is not limited to those who are low-income, disabled, LGBT, and minorities. Our studio will go on to help to inspire future creatives/entrepreneurs. In addition, once our business becomes sustainable we will re-invest our profits back into the community. We will do this by hosting and participating in community gatherings. In addition, we will provide free production services to the youth as an incentive to stay in school.
If donating is not possible you still have the power to help! All you have to do is share this campaign with a friend or on any social media platform. The more attention this campaign can receive the more likely we will be able to reach our goal!
One challenge that we face in starting up this business is funding. Operating a business of this scale will require a lot of people and equipment. As a result, this means there will be a lot of expenses. However, with adequate funding, we are confident that we can sustain business and bring in revenue by providing production services to customers. The profit from these services will be enough to sustain the business and continue to generate revenue. Aside from crowdfunding, we are also trying to obtain business grants as well as business credit to help overcome our funding challenge.
