...is harder than I thought. We've missed two go to production deadlines for the website already and will likely only have about 10% of the candy bars needed to meet demand at the end of the month, yep 10%. The problems? Where to start? Website bugs, vendors, pricing, personnel and transitions. None of this is unexpected and our contingencies have kicked in as planned but it's frustrating for a person like me who likes to have things done yesterday. I know, patience grasshopper, empires are not built in a day. I guess the one plus of experiencing these problems now is that we are not wide (major local market visibility) yet so our mistakes are confined to a small subset of people who have already pledged patience. I know the broader market will not be so forgiving, nor should they.
