Zackary Willis · Answer 1

The correct answer is letter "B": develop a business plan.

Explanation:

Entrepreneurs who lack funds to start their ventures should develop a business plan so it can be presented to prospective investors who will decide if the venture is of their interest or not. The business plan should include the mission and vision of the business as well as a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) analysis explaining how the business will mitigate its risks and maximize its benefits.

The business plan should be innovative in Peppy's case since pizzerias are very common, thus, Pepe's Pizzazzeria must have a clear competitive advantage to face competitors.
