Executive Summary
Synergy PaperWorks is a unique concept based on making seed-infused paper bags,
business cards, and price tags from recycled paper. The aim of this business is crafting fine
quality seed infused paper with organic fibers and preowned papers. Our paper is made
with no new fibers which mean no plants are cut to manufacture our products instead you
can grow new plants by sowing pieces of seed infused paper into the soil. As Government
of Pakistan is banning the usage of plastic bags, so the trend and demand of paper bags is
rising because it is necessity of every person to bring products in bags. Synergy
PaperWorks will provide environment friendly solution for this problem that is paper bags.
Many companies and brands are using promotional strategies to attract their customer and
such they would like to use our seed infused business cards and price tags to spread positive
image for their business. A huge advantage to Synergy PaperWorks is that there is no as
such manufacturer of seed-infused paper products in the market. However, we will face
certain threats like more usage of paper bags by people and less awareness about seed
infused papers.

tasks as:

2.4 Challenges and Risks

2.4.1 Challenges
A major challenge that we are likely to face is that we are the new seed paper bag
manufacturing company, and we don’t have financial capacity to beat the already
established paper bag industries. Moreover, one big challenge, which we will face, is
that people are unaware of the importance of seed paper bags as simple paper bags
are more famous and traditionally in use by the local customers. It will be challenging
to promote our business within the limited cash reserves as a beginner.

2.4.2 Risk
➢ Functional
Damage to machine and equipment due to careless usage. Power supply shortage
would lead to poor production.
➢ Financial
Monetary loss of customers due to poor satisfaction and unexpected extra costs
incurred.
➢ Temporal
Waste of time and delays in the production.

➢ Physical
Personal injury to labors during operating machinery.

which we will use in our business:

6.2.1 Utilize referrals


Referrals can make the hiring process smoother and easier for small businesses.

employees whom we need for our business and they can suggest good employees
to us.

It’s not easy for small businesses to stand out on popular sites, so it may be worth
posting job opening on niche job sites. Niche job boards generally have fewer
listings and fewer mega-sized employers that give small business like us to stand
out in front of competitors.

To find right candidates we will consider hiring on a freelance and trial basis.
We will give various manufacturing projects to the employees and if we find
them good in work then we will hire them on permanent basis.

19
Synergy Paperwork
6.4.2 Appraisal

6.4.2.1 Team evaluations

This method is best for small businesses like Synergy PaperWorks where
performance of the employee can make or break the success of an organization.

Our business is completely based on green projects which promotes usage of
environmentally friendly recycled products while reducing the use of
environmental hazards products. After sending the request for proposal for our
business the PHA is agreed on giving us grant of 10% of our start-up capital in
return of which we will plant trees in green belt by the left-over seed papers
instead of dumping them.

we will expand our business globally. We will expand our business first in
neighboring countries like India, Bangladesh, and china. Not only it will increase
our business but also helps in the growth of our GDP. Moreover, this will bring
positive image for our country as it is purely a green project.

innovative and liked by target market. Plan-able products are the need of the hour to
conserve our nature. After the ban on plastic products, opportunity for our plant-able
products is open. Also, government is favoring green projects like our busines for the
betterment of the environment. People are also aware about the importance of the
plant-able paper products and are willing to purchase green products for the good of
the country. In future we will produce new products to promote green project. After
the ban of plastic products, it is high time for our business to bring green products in
