Contractions?
The eagle-eyed reader of this blog may have picked up on the fact that Jill and I are expecting our second child. Imminently, it seems. How the weeks have flown by!
A practical advantage of working with local suppliers, and not one I'd thought of when selecting them, is that meetings are never far from home - just in case the "phone goes" and I need to get home quickly!
With night-time feeds and exhaustion on the horizon, we're glad that so much of the background work to launching the SleepBreeze personal cooling product has been done in advance. This week I've been working on the on-line shop, and it will soon be time to look at packaging with our supplier The Packaging Factory.
Of course, as the final details to our mould tools are implemented there's a temptation to try to cram all the decisions about design changes into less and less meetings. Something we're trying to resist as this would inevitably lead to chaos and expensive mistakes that would put the project back weeks. So, although we now have all the components, there are millimetric changes to come for each one of these - which will take a little time.
So, if the BreezeBlog goes quiet for a few days you'll have an idea why. Wish us luck!
