Two former students started My Friends Bookstore in their freshmen year to compete with the official Presbyterian College bookstore. They have been very successful. They graduated in May and now run the official Presbyterian College bookstore themselves!
They have learned many valuable lessons, and at the tender age of 23 are successful entrepreneurs. Dana Waters created the business plan for my small bus. mgt. class. Because I am the author of two of Prentice Hall's best-selling small bus/entrepreneurship books, I was able to use the plan that Dana wrote for My Friends Bookstore as the sample plan in the 9th edition of my book. His plan is the sample that students all over the world are using as a guide!
The young men used their plan to land a $15,000 line of credit that was unsecured and had no parental co-signature (and eventually grew to a $50,000 or so line) at a small community bank here in upstate South Carolina, The Palmetto Bank.
