Heart Life Matters CPR Training

My mother died of sudden cardiac arrest in 2017 at the age of 55, african american mom of 5 girls. I started Heart Life Matters LLC a month ago. After working through Covid-19 at Emory University hospital in Atlanta Ga. as a phlebotomist,  now is the time to give back and remember my mom and others like her and join the Heart awareness and CPR training campaign with the American Heart Association. The need for Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) has continued to increase over the years, as cardiac arrests have become a common occurrence in different parts of the world. According to the American Heart Association (AHA), over 350,000 out of hospital cardiac arrests happen in the US yearly, with about 90% of them leading to death (AHA 2021). Therefore, a business that specializes in CPR training and certification can play a crucial role in saving lives. In this plan I present research study focused on the viability of a business grant for a CPR business in the US. 

Based on my research of a CPR business. I found that CPR training business have the potential to thrive as long as they provide quality training services, affordable pricing, and effective marketing strategies. While the market for CPR training is competitive, business can carve out a niche based on their unique value propositions, such as specialized training for children, seniors and corporations and the ability to be mobile. 

Despite the potential for growth starting and running a CPR business can be capital intensive especially considering the costs of training equipment, overhead expenses and marketing. fortunately, through my research I found that starting CPR business is an excellent way to make a difference in society while running a profitable enterprise with the right training competitive pricing, effective marketing and specialized value proposition a CPR business has a high chance of success. I also found evidence of government and private sector grants for small businesses that can assist my CPR business in receiving necessary funding to make Heart Life Matters LLC successful. 

My target market is anyone in need of certification. This ranges from teenagers looking to babysit, to teachers and coaches, as well as warehousing and distribution companies. Many expecting parents now include pediatric CPR training in their baby preparation strategy.

Mannequins: adult, child, and infant- $1,800 for a classroom pack
