Business Plan

Over the following pages, I will set out my 'Business Plan', the practical applications of the ideas laid out in my 'Manifesto of Principles'

The headings of each section correspond to the same sections in the Manifesto.

This is my 'Business Plan'; the ways in which I intend to deliver a bigger, better and bolder Conservative Future.

Increasing Financial Resources for Conservative Future

Establish membership gain level for the year

I will consult with Michael Lunn and others in CCHQ to predict the likely membership gain for the year. This will act as a performance related reward: if the organisation manages to go above this figure then I will push for extra resources for CF in the following year. We only deserve extra resources if we get results; a business approach that we should follow.

NME to help Area Chairman & Branch Chairman obtain local sponsorship

Local teams should organise events then use the NME to help them attract sponsorship from the local area. In the long term, it is much better for branches to build up contacts with local businesses, which can be maintained for many years. The NME will advise on contacting potential sponsors as well as keeping a record of the sponsors at CCHQ, in case branches lose that information.

NME to attract sponsorship for the CF National Days

For the CF National Days, we can then take advantage of national sponsors and the NME will work to contact them and get them on board. This money can help to advertise the events and work nationally, which will attract media coverage and more members.
