Staring up is an exciting time. But it’s definitely demanding and at times frustrating.We have always been keen to launch as soon as possible and take advantage of the recession we are in, as our offering lends itself to saving medium to large organisations a chunk and making for a healthier bottom line.
So we’ve always looked at the end of February 2009 to launch.
But then the best laid plans… We had a meeting last night and then, with the true scale of the functionality we are trying to build, we realised that launch is going to be more like End of May!
Seriously frustrating! (When, you’re eager to launch your new venture.)
Having said that, it makes sense to launch the best possible offering you can. There will always be things that need to be changed after launch, but hopefully not the entire business! So if that means a delay then so be it. Just as long as you don’t miss the boat!
I guess now, we’ve got to make the most of this additional time, to deal with other things. Rather than bang our heads together we can spend more time on the content and look and feel of the site and have it “tip top” by our new launch date.
One thing is for sure when launching a new venture. There is so much to do. So as one thing is delayed you can rest assured another 100 things can fill its place.
Not too disheartened now…….but initially my venture world caved in!
Bring on May 2009!
