Thanks for that @wildwest
Unfortunately people have just assumed that I have no business plan in place, haven't worked out figures, don't have help from anyone else, still need to find a workspace, and various other things... Which I guess is fair enough given my track record.
However, I'm not going to post my business plan on here, gofundme, or anywhere else as it's neither required, or necessary, which is why other people don't do it either.
The gofundme story tells you what I need the money for, it tells you where I am with regards to the workspace, it tells you that I will be working with other people to allow a higher volume of products to be made, while still maintaining the high quality I demand. I've also explained on here the next stage if the gofundme is successful.
So the biggest difference this time around is that I'm not going to be doing EVERYTHING myself, and there will be a greater volume of products being manufactured.
I have the plan, I have designs, I have suppliers, I have the workspace, I have help, and most of all I have passion for what I do.
While passion may not pay the bills on its own, it gives me the drive I need to design truly unique products rather than copying other people's ideas.
I'm going to make a success of Black Rainbow Project one way or another, whether it's through the kindness and generosity of other people, or whether I have to sell every single thing I own.
Either way, I'm not done yet!
