Problem Statements

Problem Statements:
Carolina International Trade knows that a website would be beneficial to their business. However, none of their current employees have the knowledge to update and maintain a website. They also do not have the funds to hire another employee to update and maintain a website. Thus, I will create a manual that will instruct employees on basic web design and maintenance.

Carolina International Trade would like to have a website that is professional, informative, and interactive. They would also like to have a current employee update this website. Actually, they do not have a website or an employee with the knowledge to update it. I will make the real situation more ideal by writing a technical manual that will instruct employees on basic web design and maintenance.

Carolina International Trade currently has no website and no employee to update and maintain one. This could result in lack of information, fewer contact methods, and an inability to keep up with the competition. I will alleviate these problems by creating a document that will teach a current employee how to update and maintain a website.

I believe that the second problem statement would fulfill the purpose of the proposal the best. In the second statement, you outline the main reasons why they need a website; they want to be professional, have a site that can provide information and interactive (they want the client to be able to interact with the company in a digital manner). This statement goes beyond just the problem and solution, but why this solution would benefit them.
