Milestones

Milestones are essential. Since Cargo Metro is on a tight time line, each milestone must be met on time. I have already documented the high level tasks needed to open the store by early summer, which includes distributing the business plan to potential investors/lenders, securing commitment from investors/lenders, launching the e-commerce website, obtaining the brick and mortar storefront, renovating and buying equipment for the space, opening the store to the public, executing the planned marketing tactics, and lastly, surpassing sale numbers the first three months to ensure stability. Just to name a few .

This weekend, even though the business plan is complete, I’m going to add an open-to-buy plan and a detailed milestone chart. Early next week, I will produce copies and distribute the business plan to my network. Getting excited!
