P&G Is Selling Oxydol!(Company Overview‪)‬

Todd Wichmann and Rich Owen must decide whether to leave their dream jobs working for Procter & Gamble (P&G) and start their own business. They need to engage in the business planning process to decide whether to purchase Oxydol, one of the oldest detergent brands at P&G. This includes assessing whether Oxydol represents a good opportunity and if they can turn around the brand's declining sales. The most difficult challenge for Todd and Rich, though, involves finding venture capital funding for purchasing a detergent brand at a time when venture capitalists invest mainly in high technology and Internet ventures.
