Not Exactly Hectic... But
Things are moving along fine. We had a good meeting with Benjamin a couple of days ago and exchanged ideas, both professionally and otherwise. Together, we discussed some technical aspects and features of the site, the graphics, how the logo would tie-in with the other parts of the website, etc. Most of this meeting was spent on the logo itself, and we made some adjustments . Although in modern marketing and branding thinking, logos are not at the top of the VIP (very important parts) list anymore, we all agree that continuity is very important and that every part of the whole operation must look and feel like Cookie Cabana. Identity is everything, recognition is all important. Anyway, We appreciate Benjamin's creative ideas, and I trust we will see his and his team's technical prowess in a few weeks as well. I'll send them some prototype cookies in a few days to perk them up a bit.
Meanwhile... replies from the packaging suppliers are coming in. We have had some reasonable offers, and actually a couple of good ones. We are thinking about modifying the box design a bit to make it more suitable for labeling and delivery. It should not be a big deal, and I will be working on the details during the coming week... the German Trademark and Patent office has accepted our application for trade name registration, we have paid the fees and we wait for the certificate. I hope things keep going as planned, and we have all of the "legalities" in place before the countdown clock reaches 00:00:00:00, everytime I see the countdown on www.cookie-cabana.com I get a rush of anxiety, a feeling of "oh, there is so much left to do", but generally a somewhat pleasant excitement at the same time.
What's there to worry about after all? Our concept is great, our product is top quality, we are in touch with suppliers of equipment and materials we need, and I am certain (with my fingers crossed) we will go online at the strike of 00:00:00:00... and all we need then is friends and customers, friends and customers, friends and customers, and more friends and customers. Pray for us.
