Well week 7 has come and gone, where did the time go?
I have been really busy this week getting the business plan packed full of all the little details one does require. It has been nice to do market research and see the documented results which show my original assumptions were correct. Market research should be done at the get go but I Was content speaking with a group of friends about their needs and wants and realizing there was potential. I guess this is the very bare minimum of primary research but I will say it counts.
My business plan is due for review with the board where I may get a grant by the end of next week. I have been thinking about getting an extension (which is allowed) as I want to be sure I can edit and review the document more than once. If this could potentially get me grant money it needs to be perfect or at least close. This whole process does feel like being in school again. Writing the business plan and then submitting it for a grade. The major difference is once I get the grade I dont get a chance to make corrections and resubmit it. Ahhh the pressure!!
I have still been working with the manufacturers to be sure that I am getting what I want and not what they want to give me. The trouble I was having last week was cleared up as my account manager was sick and away from the office. An out of office notice would have been great and would have made my life easier. So the business remains in Canada completely for now.
Well its pretty much winter here as it was snowing when I woke up this morning so I will keep it short as I have to go and change my tires.
Thanks and take care.
