To do list
I have been sitting here lately with a lot of down time in the business while I wait for the manufacturing to move forward. There is so much to do, but everything somewhat depends of everything else and if I try to think about it all at once, I get a head ache. I have started a “to do” list in kind of a brainstorm fashion. There are a lot of things that I have “set up” to do when the time comes but I have been holding off until I’m closer to launching the product. Here is a sample of my to do list items….
Product photo shoot, packaging graphics finalized, finalize and pay for product liability insurance, get the merchant account and virtual credit card terminal in place, set up “click N Ship” with the USPO, get supplies for mailing product, get shopping cart on website, get wholesale shopping cart on website, pay for my retail license to sell to consumers… This list goes on and on. Right now I feel like there is so much to do, but why do any of it now and pay the money it will take to do a lot of these things, when the need for them is still far away and an exact date has yet to be determined. I have so many “to do” lists and right now when I look at them, I just push them aside to deal with another day. I’m pretty sure all of that bite me in the rear soon.
