Answer 1

1) The models of the division are:

- The administrations are accessible just in Cape Town, Johannesburg, Mpumalanga, and Polokwane.

- Only females who are mature between 18-35 can profit this office

The restricted accessibility of administrations is chiefly because of the way that immense measure of cash is needed for the broad organization, which she can't bear the cost of now.

2) She can raise the assets from financial backers. By selling a stake in the organization, she can collect a lot of cash. Likewise, she can contact the banks for something similar. She can take business credit for something very similar.
