Well here we are with new information and some ideas about going forward. It was a good meeting and very much as I thought would be the case and so now, armed with that information, I can start to think about moving on.
I can at least work on the basis that some things are just not going to happen easily and quickly. So in some ways one arm is tied behind my back unless the business flies and that isn't by any means certain at all.
It's now that the risk intensifies and so that in itself needs to be considered. It is a gamble and you just don't know how this is going to go especially with the Budget coming up too. Whether or not that will affect the business is another thing altogether.
For now, I need to do some "Blue Sky" thinking and then make a decision. I've already allocated some money to prop the business if needed and so covered off the possibility that we can last into Q2 next year (our Q4). We don't need that many sales to make a go of it but those sales have not come yet despite some advertising although I probably need to up my game on that to make it more attractive.
Anyway, it's time to stop randomly attacking bits of the business and time to put the nastiness behind me and see if I want to go on and run the business or just shut it down and have done with it. It was interesting that the bloke who's been giving me all the grief has once again written to the developer! What is interesting about that is that he more or less doesn't believe it will get to market - interesting comment. It just goes to prove that no one read the statement I put out where I explained that we had. They still voted against me/the business anyway. Turkeys for Christmas anyone?
Anyway, a period of reflection and review.
